We just posted new, in-person reviews of both Top Deck restaurant at Gordon Lodge, and Gordon Lodge itself. We were very happy to see the great renovation at Gordon Lodge, which has restored this classic inn to its original retro beauty, with all the modern conveniences.




Top Deck is a delight, and the views from the restaurant, above an original boat house, are wonderful. Outdoor seating too!

Read them and enjoy!

Door County Interior & Designs and Home Show!

This just in!

_________

People get decorating ideas from Door County Interiors pros during the Showcase of Homes May 8 and 9 and 15 - 17

People can obtain ideas for creating diverse decorating styles when they tour Peninsula area homes, decorated by the staff at Door County Interiors & Design.

Designers at the Egg Harbor-based home furnishings store have decorated interiors of three homes on this year’s Showcase of Homes, set for May 8 and 9 and May 15, 16 and 17. The event is sponsored by the Door County Home Builders Association.

The homes decorated by Door County Interiors have looks ranging from arts and crafts to casual. Furniture, fabrics, rugs, window coverings, finishes and accessories help pull each style together.

In addition their visual appeal, the interiors are comfortable, according to Carol Trimberger of Door County Interiors & Design. “Comfort is not just how you feel physically on the furnishings. You also have to be comfortable in the environment and with your color and your style,” she said.

The first home decorated by Door County Interiors & Design is an Egg Harbor vacation home on Green Bay waters. It has 8,000 square feet and a soothing and sophisticated arts and crafts style. Upscale fabrics by Ralph Lauren and Kravet are featured. There are walnut floors and five fireplaces—one accented by recycled century-old tile from Italy. The kitchen has celadon green cabinets, in-cabinet glass shelving and lighting, diverse countertop surfaces and a backsplash of distinctive travertine tile.

“The home doesn’t give you the feeling of size. There is the warmth of colors, and your eye is constantly taking in all the beauty,” said Ron Trimberger of Door County Interiors & Design.

A second showcase house also is used as a getaway home. With 1,500 square feet, the Fish Creek home in Park Place Villas has an interior that intimately interprets arts and crafts style. “Arts and crafts style is coming back, because it is so easy on the eyes. The lines are easy to work with—graceful and detailed, but not overly detailed. And the colors are not garish. It is a beautiful palette,” Carol Trimberger said.

The rugs and upholstery show shades of brown, red, gold, sage and black. Two throw rugs, actually in the same pattern, define seating and dining areas in the villa’s open living room. The dining table, made with pounded copper and glass top, has an airy feeling.

And while touring the third home, people will garner ideas for creating a casual and comfortable look, suitable for retirees and others. The 1,500 Baileys Harbor square foot showcase home has a living area outfitted with a brown leather sofa and ottoman and upholstered recliner. Tables and wood stools nestled behind the sofa provide additional seating for guests and save space.

“This home is designed for casual family living, and if you have a lot of guests you can move the stools out for seating in any place,” Carol Trimberger said. More information about Door County Interiors & Design is available online at doorcountyinteriors.com or by stopping by the showroom, 7266 Hwy. 42, two miles south of Egg Harbor.

Door County Artist, Ed Fenendael, Featured in NY!

One of our very own is featured in an exhibit in New York!
Ed also owns the Inn at Windmill Farm B&B in Baileys Harbor. You can read this review on our website!
____________

Door County Artist Ed Fenendael is Featured in an
Exhibit in Brooklyn Heights, New York

Artist Edward Hopper is recognized as America’s foremost artist of the inter-war period, his paintings a reflection of solitude and introspection. A comparison to Hopper’s works is justifiably the highest compliment an artist could hope to achieve. It is, therefore, a great compliment for Door County artist Ed Fenendael to have earned such praise. And like Hopper, Fenendael is being lauded for his artistic merit.
One of peninsula’s premier artists, Fenendael’s beautiful landscapes and florals--painted in the mediums of watercolor, pastel, oil, and ink--are headed to Brooklyn Heights, New York for a new “one-man” gallery exhibit. Opening on December 4th, the exhibit will be hosted by the Callahan Center for the Arts.
That’s a long way from home for the Wisconsin native who grew up on a farm in rural Pound on the other side of Green Bay. Even as a boy, however, Fenendael recalled, I loved the scent of a new box of crayons or a freshly sharpened pencil.” Today, the artist who honed his craft over more than 30 years is delighted his paintings draw comparisons to the artist who achieved greatness in the mid-1900s.
“A visitor to one of my exhibits once said of my work ‘it has the stillness of Edward Hopper.’ That couldn’t have made me happier. What that woman recognized in my work is ‘true.’ It is also what I identify with in Claude Monet’s paintings. The Impressionists found beauty in the simple, rural, pastoral scenes that surrounded them. I am moved by those subjects, as well,” Fenendael smiled.
Fenendael’s upcoming New York exhibit completes his “triple crown.” In the past year the artist, who is represented at the Watergate Gallery in Washington, D.C., has also been exhibited in Giverny, France. The site of Monet’s home and gardens, the setting could not be more appropriate for an artist whose watercolor paintings are alive with spontaneity.
“To exhibit in France—and most especially in Monet’s village--is a dream come true,” said Fenendael. “I never thought this would actually happen. I couldn’t be more pleased. More than 5,000 visitors tour the gardens daily, and now they will have an opportunity to view my work. It’s a gift.
“I have visited Paris often and my experiences there have been significant to my development as an artist. To work in the city that is so important to some of the world’s renowned artists have been wonderful, a real boost to my painting,” Fenendael shared.
A second “crown” was presented to Fenendael earlier this fall when the Door County Art League named him 2008 Master Artist. Awarded annually, the Master Artist award recognizes an outstanding Door County artist. "I was overwhelmed to be chosen; to be selected from so many wonderful artists in the region,” Fenendael said.
In Door County, Fenendael exhibits his artwork at Ephraim Clayworks, The Bridge in Egg Harbor, and his own Morning Mist Studio in Baileys Harbor. His paintings are also exhibited in corporate and private collections worldwide, and in the Miller Art Museum’s permanent collection.
A world traveler and observer of his environment, Fenendael is never at a loss for inspiration. Pastoral scenery and rural landscapes tempt and tease him to take brush in hand. The Baileys Harbor resident encourages the emerging artist to “paint what you know, what is close to your heart.”
A graduate of Marquette University, Fenendael regularly teaches and conducts workshops in locales both abroad and in the United States. Internationally, he has instructed students in Italy and France. Regionally, Fenendael has held workshops in Florida, California, and Kansas City.
He also teaches classes at Morning Mist Studio at Windmill Farm in Egg Harbor and the Peninsula School of Art in Fish Creek. The recipient of a multitude of awards, Fenendael was named a Top-100 Artist in 1998. He is a member of the Door County Art League and the Kansas Watercolor Society, and is a founding member of the Missouri Watercolor Society.
The renowned artist and teacher Robert Henri encouraged his student Edward Hopper to “make a stir in the world.” The emerging artist who lived from 1882 – 1967 is quoted as saying of his craft, “The man’s the work. Something doesn’t come out of nothing.”
With the premiere of his work in New York, Fenendael is making his own stir in the art world. He is worthy of sharing Hopper’s sentiment, an embodiment of the world he views with an artistic eye and readily shares with the viewer.
“Every artist is inspired in a different way. I am inspired by the nature, the beauty of the world around me,” Fenendael shared. “I feel an incredible surge when I paint a piece that sings with soul.
For additional information about Ed Fenendael and his artwork visit www.watercolorexcitement.com. The Callahan Center for the Arts is located at 180 Remsen Street, Brooklyn Heights. An opening reception for Ed Fenendael’s exhibit will be held on Thursday, December 4, from 5 – 7:30 pm.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Dinner. . .

Well, heading back south, we just had to stop in Door County Ice Cream & Sandwich Factory, in Sister Bay across for the Tannenbaum Holiday Shop. We met with Todd, the owner, and sampled his new sorbets - the lemon is just awesome. We shot a little video there as well, then headed over to Baileys Harbor for dinner.

In Baileys Harbor, we dined at the Florian II restaurant. We had a table at the window overlooking the lake - very nice. Food was awesome, so we asked to speak to one of the owners, chef/owner Jerry. Great guy, been doing this for 32 years, and loves it! It shows.

Fun time - now it's really time to rest.

Seafood Chowder Break!

Well, we are still in Baileys Harbor - now at Weisgerber's enjoying a nice bowl of seafood chowder, which goes real nice with an Island Wheat beer, I hear :)

More later! See you in Door County!

We are taking a coffee break right now at Custard's Last Stand in Baileys Harbor - ahh a nice warm coffee - it's a bit chilly outside and this takes the edge off!

Later we'll head to Casey's in Egg Harbor for dinner - maybe! See ya there!
