Von Stiehl Winery - Algoma, Wisconsin

The 5th Annual Girls Night Out takes place in Algoma, Wisconsin on May 18th and 19, 2012. Algoma is a charming small town on the shores of Lake Michigan, at the south end of the Door Peninsula. Don't miss it!

There is nothing like getting away with your best girlfriends; you stay up late, talk about all sorts of things, and laugh a lot. Such occasions are precious, not least because the older we get, the less frequently they occur. Spouses, children, work, and other commitments mean there is little time for girlfriend getaways.

Make time for your best friends this year, or your sisters and your mother. Head to Algoma, Wisconsin for two nights at the historic Hotel Stebbins. This fun weekend includes:

• Steak and lobster dinner with complimentary hors d'oeuvres.
• DJ entertainment at Hotel Stebbins.
• Admittance into the Cherry De-Lite Festival
• $10 gift certificate to von Stiehl, a fabulous Algoma, Wisconsin Winery.
• $10 gift certificate to the Pampered Chef
• An assortment of free gifts from Algoma retailers.

The Cherry De-Lite Festival features live music, free chocolate covered cherries (oh my), and a televised "Cook Off" hosted by Mad Dog and Merrill and your weekend host, Kristine Ruel. It is guaranteed to be a fabulous weekend!

Stay one night or stay both nights. Just stay long enough to swing by von Stiehl for a little Wisconsin wine tasting while you're here.

Additional information available at Hotel Stebbins.

Sometimes it's just nice to step out of your routine. If you're feeling like you could use a change of scenery, consider spending a few days in Algoma, Wisconsin. Our charming little town is nestled against Lake Michigan at the base of the Door Peninsula. It's beautiful, it's peaceful, it's fun, and it's less than an hour from Green Bay.

Hotel Stebbins is offering a February Lodging Package that is guaranteed to lift your spirits. The "For Fun - For Romance" All-inclusive Package at Hotel Stebbins is a great deal.

Start with delicious coffee and breakfast at Caffé Tlazo, where you can surf the web, read the paper, or simply enjoy each other's company as you sink your teeth into freshly baked treats.

In the middle of the day head over to Algoma Pizza Bowl for a couple of games and a slice or two. Then come to von Stiehl, our Algoma Wisconsin Winery, for wine and chocolate pairing. Yum.

Dinner at the Stebbins Restaurant is the perfect way to round out the day. Start with drinks in the lounge, where you can sit by the fireplace and admire the original tin ceilings. Move to the dining room for dinner, and be sure to try the Frog Legs. They're amazing.

The special package at Hotel Stebbins is available through the month of February. Come for a little R&R: some Wisconsin Wine, some artisan chocolates, some bowling… What could be better?

This is a great opportunity to get together with girlfriends; call friends you haven't seen in years or get together a group of gals from your workplace. After all, girls need to have fun!

Girls just want to have fun. Cyndi Lauper sings it better than anyone else, but it's a sentiment shared by many. Perhaps it's because running a family and a home can be lonely work. Perhaps it's because running a household on top of working full time is exhausting. The fact is, it's important for women to get together from time to time, so they can talk and laugh and dance until dawn.

Calendars tend to fill quickly, so set this date aside:
May 21, 2011 - the Annual Hotel Stebbins Girls Night Out.

Celebrate your inner Naughty Girl...

Great things are happening in Algoma, home of our Wisconsin Winery. A new event is on the calendar: Algoma Art Wave. Come check it out, and when you do, be sure to stop by our Winery for wine tasting and gift purchasing (yes, you may give yourself a gift).

From now on, the second Friday of the month will be turned over to the arts in Algoma. Venues include but are not limited to: Clay on Steele, a community art center that focuses on ceramics; Bren Sibilsky Sculpture, the sculptor's studio; and Caffe Tlazo, a warm cafe/restaurant located in a restored 1891 Italianate house. In addition to the art on the walls and the food on the tables, Caffe Tlazo will feature live music and after "Wave" hours. This may be a good night to book a room at Hotel Stebbins.

This Friday, December 10, 2010, is the next Algoma Art Wave, between 5 and 8 p.m. Leave work a little early and head to our Algoma Winery for a glass of Wisconsin wine (and a bottle for the weekend). Then hit the Art Wave. You may just find the perfect gift for someone in your life.
