Our beautiful retired fruit farm is located on Washington Island, in northeast Wisconsin, is just off the end of the Door Peninsula and north of the “tension” line. On a day with perfect weather, the ferry from Northport will have you to the island in thirty minutes.
Greengate Farm Country Rentals is situated on the northeast region of the island alongside one and a half miles of pristine lakeshore. Guests at Greengate have direct access to hiking trails, a vast expanse of private shoreline, a beautiful orchard to wander through, and 300 acres of forest and field. George, owner of the farm with his wife Susan and daughter Amy, has been a HAM radio operator since he was a child. He has created a unique place for himself and other hams to get on the air. If you are a HAM Radio operator, our HAM Shack, devoted solely to radio, is conveniently located so you don’t have a long walk to your accomodations.
Every season here has something to offer. Be it flowers in the summer, outstanding fall foliage, deep snows for winter fun, or the brisk weather of spring, Washington Island has it all. Greengate Farm Country Rentals can be your base to get out and experience this quaint location in Wisconsin.
