Port Washington is a charming town on the shoulders of Lake Michigan. It is best known for its charter fishing fleet, which is one of the largest on the Great Lakes. The marina is walking distance from the historic downtown area at lake level. Friendly merchants provide a variety of shopping and dining.

While walking through town, climb the steps to the lighthouse, tour the museum inside and view the light tower recently restored by Dutchy of Luxembourg as a gift to the city. Walk the breakwall to the second lighthouse.

Directly in front of the hotel is the Ozaukee Interurban Trail that is a paved thirty-mile non-vehicular recreational trail that spans the length of the county. The trail is intended for year round uses as biking, walking, in-line skating and cross-country skiing. The trail passes through eight communities in the county.

Country Inn & Suites By Carlson - Port Washington has 11 golf courses within a half-hours drive. Course choices range from Whistling Straight's where the 2004 PGA Championship is being held to Squires Country Club which is a semi-private club just four minutes from the hotel.

These are just a few of the area activities. Expect much, much more when you visit Port Washington and the Country Inn & Suites By Carlson.
