Bethany Lynn's for High Tea:  Forget about traveling to the Ritz Carlton for High Tea, you can have a wonderful High Tea experience in Fort Atkinson.  If you have a smaller group (30 or less) or want an option for "just the ladies" and are looking for a leisurely afternoon of trying on fancy hats, sampling gourmet treats and drinking fine tea, this is a delightful option for you.  In a time when schedules keep us running and we are pulled in a variety of directions, this experience is a real "get-away". 

Live Music at the Cafe Carpe:  This beloved bistro and live music spot offers a great blend of "good food that is good for you" and a variety of musical talent.  

Nasco Catalog Outlet Store: One of the Midwest’s largest suppliers of educational, farm and art equipment, offering low prices on nearly all catalog items.

Jones Dairy Retail Store: In business since 1889, and still run by the Jones family, offers wonderful cuts of their famous bacon, ham, liver sausage and fresh pork.

Fort Atkinson’s Historic Downtown: On the National Registry of Historic Places, has just undergone a major renovation, and now includes a new river walk, specialty retail establishments in historic and restored buildings. Bus parking and public restrooms also available.

The Fort!  Yes, we really do have a fort, and it is the scene of the annual Memorial Day event, The Buckskinner’s Rendezvous, a reenactment of fur-trading days in the 1830s, complete with authentic costumes, food, music, and competitions such as knife and axe throwing. Held in the 113-acre Rock River Park.

AtmosphAir Skydiving Center: Offers a unique tour experience, and no you don’t have to jump! Experience the thrills of skydiving from afar and watch as head instructor Bo Babovic rides to 12,500 feet in the air and exits the airplane with a brightly-colored parachute. Enjoy your visit with Bo and his wife Alex who have traveled (and jumped) all over the world.
