Whether you’re saying hello to the Tug John Purves, checking out the names at Anderson Dock, or tasting the Door County Cherry Cheddar at Renard’s Cheese, Destination Door County is giving you extra incentive to explore the sights of the peninsula this holiday season. Following the release of A Cherry Pie Christmas—also known as A Wisconsin Christmas Pie—earlier this month on Great American Family, the organization has created a movie trail for residents and visitors to trace the journey of characters played by Katie Leclerc and Ryan Carnes.
From Sturgeon Bay to Ellison Bay, there are 18 stops on the trail that you can track online and earn rewards along the way. Based on the feedback they’ve received about the area’s inclusion in the film, Destination Door County Chief Communications Officer Jon Jarosh is betting that people will weave these sights into their plans as they visit community holiday celebrations.
If you don’t receive Great American Family, don’t worry. Starting November 15, the movie will roll out across additional free and on-demand platforms.
