Washington Island, WI is
most often described as "above the tension line", and with good reason.
This is the place to come when you want to "get away from it all" . . . . .
the strip malls, city traffic, restaurant chains, competing with the Jones'.
Here you can swim, lazy with a book on the beach, bike ride, hike, walk,
shop in the unique gift shops, and grab a bite to eat in the quaint
restaurants. You'll find many points of interest to fill your time and
we're just a hop, skip and a jump away. Here are the maps and
