Reviews of Cave Point County Park (Tourist Attraction)

Randy Miller

We made a day trip of Door County and stopped here for our first stop. The views and scenery and absolutely beautiful. The park is well kept and a must see if in this area. If you bring kids, be mindful of where they are at all times as there are many locations that have ledges they could fall from. Nice walking paths and plenty of parking close by. I would recommend you bring a good walking shoe and possibly a sweatshirt or light jacket as you are going to be walking along the shoreline area and it could bring cooler temps. No fee to gain entry that we were aware of.

Cade Pichette

We were here in the summer for our first visit, now we got to experience this place in the winter. Both times of the year are truly a time to go. Seeing the beauty in each season is spectacular. Be extra cautious of the edges in the winter time.

Lorry Bloomquist

Always spectacular. Waves were crashing. Awesome. A must stop in Door County.

Lori Bankson

Beautiful hiking trails and swimming spots! Fun family daytrip to see Wisconsin's beauty in nature!

DENISE WILLIAMSON

Cold, windy day! The waves were crashing against the rocks and it sounded the thunder. Loved it!

Maggie Trenkle

Beautiful place to visit!

Barbara Landowski

This is one of those places that only exists in Door County. It is on the lake side so it is a bit cooler, but worth seeing. There are hiking trails along the lake and in the interior.

Shy Varem

Lovely location, pleasant shaded stroll along the coast.

Nirjhar Bera

Need to be really brave to swim in such choppy waters

James Eckerle

This is a very scenic area. There are hiking/biking trails on both sides of the picnic area. There are incredible (to borrow an expression from Donald Trump) overlooks of Lake Michigan.

Kirubaharan Subramaniyan

It's a nice place. Not so great. But this is a must to visit place in door county in summer because you jump into water, take a short walk. Can see spending about a couple of hours during warm weather. If you bring food, you can spend some more time with your family.

April Brown

Great place to hike. Beautiful.

will hibbitts

Love this place any time of year. Its especially gorgeous in the winter time. Not an intense hike but well worth it.

Josh peters

Very nice county park

Heather Smith

Want to feel like you’re standing on a cliff side, overlooking the ocean but live in the Midwest? Drive up to Door County, WI and visit CavePoint! Then hang out at the beach at Whitefish Dunes. You’re welcome!

Berkeley Blum

Can do short cliff dives and hike. Great place to visit and have a picnic.

Shantel Ahrens

The maps they have up are not clear on where you are, you have to watch closely where your walking otherwise you will fall twist of possibly brake an ankle. The beach they have ISN'T a beach at all its a park with a drop off to the water. Not at all what we drove 2 and half hours for.

Erin Peters

Beautiful place!! Go here if you are in the area, you won't be disappointed.

Rebecca Monroe

Beauty at its finest that's all I can say it's just Beauty at its finest

Doug Sumner

Beautiful hiking trail down the beach

Marc G

Nice spot. Some jump from the wall to the water. Can be dangerous at times.

Dan Binder

This park is beautiful! It was more crowded than I have seen before but still plenty of room to hike or climb.

Madeline Schultz

LOVE Devil's Bathtub!! Enjoy the views at the park but was even more impressed by the views from the water. Such a cool experience getting to paddle into Devil's Bathtub and THE CAVE!!

Mark Uuskallio

Waves were wumping the rocks, so cool!

Robert Rutter

Water erosion of the shoreline leaves you 30 feet directly above the undercut rocks! Beautiful pastel colors in the sky as the sun sets...perfect time of year is September

Scott Thompson

THE place to go in Door County. Absolutely stunning.

Jeffery Pralle

The views are beautiful and when the waves crash against the tocks its gorgeous

David Burrows

Nice place to take a walk

Scott Maasch

Beautiful little gem to visit. Great hiking paths and plenty of picnic space. Great place to sit back and relax or get in your steps

Dorothy Stuart

Cave Point is a delightful county park in Door County. Ine can visit it over and over, and no two experiences will be quite the same.

Elliot Ramos

Beautiful colors and formations.

Pat Molitor

Used to be better. Teens violate the beauty of this place, using the cliffs to jump into the lake.

Mary Mendoza

The most beautiful colorful waters.

Laurie Brunner

One of my favorite places ! Tranquil. Most recommend! You will love it !

Rosetta Smucker

Cave point park was one of the top highlights of our visit to Door County Wisconsin!

Steven Kyler

Always a good place to go and relax

Tamara Hayes

Beautiful views and easy access trails.

Ryan Park

The views are impressive and free (unlike other parks) I assume because it is a county Park instead of state. We found the hikes very doable strapping in a 1.5 year old. I can see why the views would be amazing at sunset. I think the best part is the sound of the waves crashing the rocks while walking through one of the trails.

Deb Kasper

Best hike I ever took in my life. Dogs welcome on a leash.

Timothy Holford

This park never disappoints!

Tracy Fabian

The waves today were more like that on the Pacific Ocean! I love going here at all different times of the year as it’s always different and always beautiful!

Mary Anderson

One of my favorite places in Door County. Beautiful! Nice trails, but watch your step!

Jason Boynton

Free and beautiful views. Adjacent to the state park

caleb wrasse

A very nice park with no entrance fee

Louis Guzzo

It was gorgeous! Lots of mosquitoes, so wear some repellant. Door county is fun!

Kathryn-Ann Cravillion

This was a great park, with fun scenic hike along the shore. The terrain was a bit tricky with exposed roots, wobbly rocks, and fallen trees, but very rewarding.

Raja Saravanan

We visited this place during spring fall and it was awesome. must visit place in Wisconsin

Steve Lisowski

A beautiful place to visit. The rock formations are so cool!

James Wray

We we're here twice 24 hours apart. The first time the water was crystal clear and calm. You could see to the bottom of the lake. There was a family jumping into the water. The second time we visited a strong wind had been blowing from the south east for hours and the waves were pounding the shore. The spray was shooting a good thirty plus feet in the air. The deep boom from the waves hitting some of the small caves at water level was amazing. This is a must see when in Door County.

Megan Leonard-Bisenius

Beautiful place to hike and spend some time by the water. Definitely wear good shoes or hiking boots because there are lots of rocks and tree roots. Great stop on our Door County trip

Michelle Hinrichs

This place rocks. Beautiful views. Relaxing to just chill out.

Ted Carra Augustine

A Door county must see. Located just North of Whitefish Dunes State Park, this is a free park with beautiful rock cliffs that manh summer visitors jump into the water from. You can even rent a kayak North of the park and paddle along Lake Michigan to see the cliffs and caves. Do watch your step, there are some holes that can be hiding under leaves. Definitely worth the trip to see this place!

Travis

We loved our visit here, and it was free to visit and park. Beautiful rocks and cliffs line the shore, and there is a nice trail as well. We saw lots of kayakers down below. Didn’t see a good map and the layout didn’t seem intuitive at first, but we didn’t stay long enough to check it all out. We brought our dog too and she had a great time walking with us.

Brian Adamski

A lot of cool paths to walk on. Nice picnic area

Darrin Rogers

Fantastic! Great little lagoon rock jumping spot, another rock ledge was equally fun for smaller ones. Don't miss it!

Ann Baity

The park was beautiful and temperatures were cooler than the surrounding area.

DC Transitions

Who doesn’t love this place! I prefer tobgo on a desolate quiet day in winter. Be careful, many people have fallen in and died here or kayaked out and dumped. Respect the park and you will live to see another day!

Suhel Mukardamwala

Nice scenic place to take photos.. keep jackets handy.. sometimes it gets too cold unexpectedly

Keli Jacewitz

Excellent state park that is enjoyable year round, but especially in the summer. There are small grills if you want to picnic.

Anna Campbell

Spectacular. Words just are inadequate to describe how the lake had been transformed into something magical. The Lily pad shaped ice formations were specific to that area only. Lots of waves crashing into the caves. Surreal sights and sounds. A must see!

Clara Hersh

Stunning scenery and nice trails in the area. This park directly adjoins White Dunes State Park so you’re walking on a mix on county and state trails. If you close your eyes when you’re at the shore it sounds like a ocean. Such a gem! My only regret is not coming on a warmer day.

Laurel Triatik

This is my favorite Door County free park. It's small, but has ample parking. The walk along the shore of Lake Michigan is like nowhere else. The caves are created by the water erosion and are impressive to stand above. There are also walking trails through the woods across the parking lot.

Mary Murray

Great view of the lake, the caves were under the water as the water is higher than normal this year. Beautiful park!

Cole Hayden

Massive waves crashing in! Thought I was at the ocean.

Lisa Krause

The park is beautiful with fantastic views. The picnic area is nice. It does have pit toilets.

Josh Gundlach

Great place all kinds of hidden gems if you get out and hike around it.

Jeff Prentice

A must-stop on the door county bucket list. Great place to jump in the lake and get refreshed after a long hike!

Michael Kenney

What a gem...beautiful views of Lake Michigan, rugged lakeshore giving way to awesome stone covered beach.

Amy Workman

Great views and a nice little walk. Pretty dangerous for little ones, so not a place to take a little bolter or daredevil. If you want good views and hikes with them I recommend going to the state park on the northern end of the peninsula. Glad we went, but couldn't spend a lot of time here.

John Doe

A beautiful place , nice spot to stop and have a lunch On a site seeing drive

Reza Rahimi

One of the best hiking trail in the midwest. You would love the sound of nature, waves hitting the underground caves.

Bruce Konkel

Really a great place to visit if the wind is coming from the east. If it is, the waves breaking on the shore are awesome.

Laura Wall

Always clean. Water is clear. Parking is great.

Debisree Ray

A wonderful state park in the Door County, WI, along the Michigan lake. Best time to visit is the summer. Must visit if you love the nature and the outdoor. The blue coloured water, big waves and the rocky cliffs make the place picturesque. You can try cliff diving. If you are here around 12-1 pm, you might able to see the rainbow formation in the mist of the lake water near the cliff.

Trini Torres

Absolutely amazing views!! Need hiking boots and need to be careful as there are dangerous drop-offs. No unsupervised kids or unleased dogs.

Terry O'Dell

Beautiful park with breathtaking views and trails. Some parts are dangerous for young children as there are sudden and sharp drop offs to the water.

Dana DeMet

The waves and caves make a very satisfying "thump" that reverberates throughout the ground beneath your feet. And watching people getting unexpectedly drenched while taking their selfies is also very satisfying.

Md Shaheduzzaman

A very beautiful place to spend a day with friends and family, and having a little picnic maybe while enjoying the lake breeze and sunshine. Be careful with going too close to the ledge, though!

Becca Freeman

Would highly recommend coming here! It was free if you parked at the Cave Point County Park lot, but it was BUSY! However, I'd not see a nothing quite like the park. The waves coming in from Lake Michigan were amazing and it was gorgeous.

Sarah Naber

Cave Point is such a beautiful, classic place to go. Although it was cold, the views were worth it. They do a great job of keeping the place clean and gorgeous.

David Hevia

Make sure and take your swim clothes and a towel, and a little guts. When you see everyone having so much fun jumping off the rocks, you will be tempted to try. Several people in our party did it. It is very safe. They aren't too high - I'm guessing 15 ft. And kids and families are doing it. The trails take you to some nice exploring on the rocks. You can really get a feel for the rock formations that make this coast so unique.

Ravinder G

Clean water and nice scenic view of Michigan lake. Best place to visit in Fall to get the most of it.

Mila Bahuto

Amazing cliff and view!

Lisa Hein

Exploring on the trails and climbing the rocks was simply amazing!

Tracy Auns

AWESOME place to take scenic photos! Highly recommend!!

Sharon Knight

Pretty scenery, quiet. Enjoyed this trip.

Linda Fournier

First time visiting this wonderful park. Loved the veiws, well maintained.

Krissy Lenius

Awesome place to visit have a picnic bring the kiddos, bring the dog. But be very aware of where you are walking there are tree roots n some holes you can easily trip on ! Enjoy your visit

Jake Van Dyke

Beautiful area. Probably my favorite in door county.

Dawn Sullivan

Fun for young adults. Whitefish dunes with a beach.

Ryan Baker

Always a nice walk along some pristine shoreline. Awsome place for taking pictures and a picinic.

Ryan Paulsen

On a windy wavy day this place is really spectacular!

RON SMITHRUD

Great experience. Was able to go into the cave.

Rosemary Williams

Ridiculously beautiful and awe-inspiring

Kristen Barker

Really neat place to visit

Jason Bennett

It's the one spot I visit every time I make the visit to Door County. I recommend taking a dip off the bluffs if weather permits

Donovan Mueller

Awesome place, so big you can get easily lost. Best for kayaking, hiking, and cliff diving

Ольга Демидова

One of the most beautiful parks in Door County. Picturesque lake views, amazing rocks

Craig Powell

Very nice park..

Ellen Beno

Watching the waves crash into the rugged coast is exciting.

saral gupta

Nice fall colors and good view of lake Michigan

Karen Budelman

What a beautiful park to hike in. Everytime we visit Door County we stop at Cave Point County Park. We have been doing this for the last 20 years.

Jill&Steve S

Such wonderful views to be enjoyed! Not to be missed. The hiking trails were well maintained and the park clean with seating. Parking available near trails, with additional lot for overflow and busses.

Nyia Yang

Im so happy we decided to come check cave point out. Its such a beautiful place. We did some cliff diving.. And went to the beach in white dunes. The whole family had a great time. We will definitely come back. I defineitely recommend this place!

Kelly Mehan

The park is beautiful! It was pretty foggy when we went, but you were still able to see the cliffs and I’m glad we didn’t skip this stop. We walked along the short trail, but next time I go back I definitely want to kayak - I’m sure it would be a great way to see the caves.

Sam Axon

Beautiful sunrise spot! We set up our hammocks and enjoyed the start of a new day.

Jacob Miller

Can get super busy here in the summer, but always a beautiful place to be. Winter is just as cool too. Lots of cool ice formations!

Jasmine R

Wow, such a beautiful place for a hike!

cat kegeris

Such a cool park, lots of trails near the waters edge! We jumped off the cliff into the water and it was amazing!! Not for everyone, but it was quite the thrill! Bring a swimsuit just in case you dare! Great location for birdwatching, biking, trail hiking, photography, or a picnic. Nice gazebo near parking for lunch after a hike! Port o potties available for use. Pavement parking, and plenty of it! Caution trails are full of tree roots and can trip up even the most experienced hiker! The flat rocks on the water are fun to climb, but be careful they are extremely slick! Kayaking thru this area is common and several local companies have tours for hire! Beautiful spot to watch sunset! Absolutely amazing to see in the winter after a big snow storm!!

Dani Fuchs

Loved this place!! Nature was excellent! The views, trees, smells, and breeze were awesome. However, trails are not accessible for all (lots of tree roots to trip on trails and potentially treacherous falls into the lake--none of which can be helped but should be noted for folks who are older or less mobile and folks with young kids)! The park properly warns of these conditions though! Also, if you expect to come for a swim, be warned that you will be jumping or slipping into unpredictable strong waves that could cause injury on the rocks. Swimming here is not for the faint heart... Cliff-diving adventurers are welcome!!

Zack H

Beauty and power. Awesome on a westward windy day!

arlington joe

Whenever I go to Door County this is a must stop place for me. Love the hiking trails and I get a chance to climb down on the Rocks and cool my feet Lake Michigan.

Alexandra Jammali

Such a great little walk (light hike) along the shoreline with an awesome view of Lake Michigan!

E L E V A T E

It's a pretty beautiful place. Especially at sunrise. But when the weather is cold and rainy, it takes a more sad, dark, and dramatic feel. (If your a photographer, it has some good composition as well.) Very good for any mood you want to convey.

Anne-Alice Homsy

A great place to hike no matter the season! Take your family, take the pups! There are two great paths, one that stays in the county park and the other that transitions into a state park.

Sally Elko

Beautiful, free pit stop that is good for photos & nice place to stretch your legs.

Ben Cedarberg

Such a beautiful County Park. The park is rather busy even during the week however parking lots are large. There are RV spaces available. Restrooms are available on site. Walking pads are well groomed and connected to the State Park trails. There are some trails along the cliffs but if children are well-behaved they are not dangerous. Fun places to climb on rocks and stack them into formations on the shore.

Nicholas Norman

I will be back again to catch the sunrise. Beautiful surroundings to say the least.

Gargi Shetty

Nature at her best ..land , water , untamed woods ..

Marc Roidt

Great place to kayak and make sure and visit the cliffs

Antonio Alvarez

Viewers who live in Wisconsin, go see cave point. Viewers who love to travel, reserve a reservation at the nearest resort. Must see.

Trevor Sprangers

This park is absolutely beautiful during the summer with crystal clear water and cliffs lining the water. There are places to get down by the water on the rocks and also some places that are a little less safe to maneuver around to get down. There is a location to jump into the water from the cliffs and overall i had a great time here.

Ginger Tremblay

Must see for Lake Michigan. Rocks, waves, caves and great hiking trails.

Jason Krejci

Great waves on a windy day!

The Hansen Family

Amazing! Never knew such beauty was right here in my own backyard!

Delaine Griep

Well worth the side trip

John Leinweber

Very interesting rock formations nice peaceful place Just to sit and listen is nice

Ben MacKinney

Most exciting place in Door County! Cliff jumping :)

Rhonda Hoornstra

This was such a neat place walking along the cliffs. The water was pretty lovely. We went later day and didn't have a problem with parking. The trails were pretty easy to walk through. The cave layers were really awesome to look at. Some were jumping from them into the water. Not sure if that is normal but someone mention the water levels were higher than normal when we went. Great place to stop for a picnic with the family.

Ian McAlister

Really really cool, big waves!!!

Heidi Belekevich

Awesome. We jumped off the cliffs, the water was gorgeous (and COLD.) The bathrooms were really gross, but it is the end of the season, and the natural features more than made up for that.

Jessica Anne

This is the one park you need to go to if you are going to Door County. You would swear you are in the ocean! The water is clear, there is swimming, cliff jumping and so many other fun things to do here! Cave Point is breathtaking!

Colleen Doden

Lot's to see, fun watching people jump off the one cliff in the water, good walking trail for our dog. Love the way the water looks.

Craig Clausen

the ground shook when the waves crashed against the shore. Simply amazing.

Scott Palmer

Cave Point County Park is the most scenic spot on the Door County peninsula. Don't miss the "unofficial" path north along the shoreline to Whitefish Dunes State Park.

Kendra Johnson

Beautiful location. Get there early before all the crowds and selfie takers.

Taren Hollister

Loved it. Beautiful lake shore along the park

Howard Zimmermann

Great views, clean, walking along the shore line has lots of tree roots. Wear supportive shoes

Greg Langkau

Very interesting location for some natural lake shoreline.

Nick Barnett

Such a beautiful place. So peaceful.

Kris Wood

Beautiful view of Lk Michigan on overlook, picnic tables and short walking trails (up to 1 mile)

Sarfraz Ahmed

This is a hidden gem in Door County. We went their with low expectations but was so thrilled by the waves crashing to the bluff and showering us with cold lake Michigan water!!

Dave M

A beautiful place to visit.

Sarah Thorpe

Well worth stopping at this county park. The view is worth it.

Amanda G

The views! On a windy day the sounds! A small or long hike. If you like nature you should stop! When the water is low you can go down and out on the rocks safely. One of our groups must do's on our Door County Trips!

Jane Stork

Absolutely beautiful place. The views are breathtaking. The trails are a bit more challenging due to the number of exposed roots and rocks. However, despite this the paths don’t have a great deal of change in elevation. We easily walked from the parking lot of Cave Point down to the beach at Whitefish Dunes and back. This is a must see spot if you are in Door County.

Lydia Dobberstein

Lots of people but very cool place to see especially when it’s windy and has big waves

Elizabeth Hawkins-Schmidt

Beautiful trails, beautiful views. It's amazing and we'll definitely be back!

Jacki Higgins

And exhale! This is my favorite spot in door county. Just need a good bottle of your favorite drink, a snack from the local towns visited earlier and watch the most beautiful scenery display before your eyes. It's an area that when you see it you don't feel like you're in Wisconsin anymore. It just takes away any stress, or the feeling of "gotta keep moving". Most importantly it makes you stop waiting to exhale.

Luis Perez

Incredible. Must see while your in Wisconsin

Gloria Gardner

Wind, waves, and Nature's power & beauty!

Divya Natarajan

Beautiful spot on Lake Michigan!

Heather Bradberg

This is very interesting park. The signage is kind of confusing, but it appears that there's a county park on the inside of a state park. We have a state park pass, but appears you don't need one to get into the park, as long as you park in the county park area. The caves along lake Michigan are really need to see, and they were even some kids jumping into them. Highly recommend, one of the most beautiful places in all door county

deepika behera

If you are travelling to door county for fall colors you have to visit this park...it had the most vibrant colors throughout the drive to the parking lot...also the bluffs are very accessible and pretty ....if you do kayaking a summer trip is definitely recommended....even if you dont kayak..walking through the trails is awesome . The parking lot has picnic benches too for a family picnic...overall a must see in the door county trip.

Russ Frank

Great view of lake and caves

MaryBeth Kiczenski

Great spot. I always make a stop here when in door county.

Rune Haugland

We had great time here! Definitely worth the visit! Our kids are still talking about it how fun it was to jump from the cliffs, months later!

Douglas Jones

Located right next to Whitefish Dunes State Park this County Park’s main draw is the stone mini-cliffs that skirt along the Lake Michigan shoreline. At several points the water has carved into the stone and created “caves”, hence the name. Decent parking although summer and fall weekends can get crowded.
