Williams Bay "Dog Day In The Bay" 2009

The annual Dog Day In The Bay, sponsored by the Williams Bay Business Association (WBBA) took place on Saturday June 20th, 2009. Hundreds of local dog owners from around the Lake Geneva area took part in the annual event to raise money and awareness for the lakeland Animal Shelter of Walworth County Wisconsin. Proud pet owners dressed their best friends in a wide variety of wacky costumes and paraded along the shoreline of Lake Geneva.

SkagenHus on The Lakefront was on hand as the official Hot Dog vender for the event and passed out treats for as many of the four legged participants as possible. Winners will be listed shortly.

About Us: SkagenHus is a Scandinavian Gift Shop & Danish Tea Room located on Hwy #67 just two tenths of a mile or so North of the Lakefront. SkagenHus gets its name from the Northern most Village in Denmark called Skagen. The area is extremely picturesque and distinguished by its low, yellow houses with red tile roofs nestled into the beach areas. The area is closely associated with the Skagen Painters, a community of artists, who flocked to this picturesque, area in the late 1800s to escape the city and to record artistically a way of life they realized was soon to disappear.

SkagenHus also operates the only local European Bakery and Danish Tea Room complete with authentic Danish Open Faced Sandwiches.

Need stress relief without a prescription? Stop in at Our Studio today for a cup of Swedish Coffee and a Warm Piece of Authentic Danish Kringle. Our Kringle Won the “Best Kringle in The United States” Competition and is sure to become a pleasant addition (addiction) to your

Lake Geneva Summers!

As for the owners….we started as weekenders and summer folks from Northbrook, Illinois. Then we had a total break from reality, moving here full time with the dutiful husband still driving (racingJ) into Illinois for work 3 to 4 days per week. And now it’s a European Themed Gift Shop, Restaurant, Bakery, Hot Dogs and Good Humor Ice Cream Cart…..

Talk about addictions!

We love the Old Fashioned rural charm of Williams Bay. “SkagenHus on the Lakefront” is part of our attempt to preserve the youthful essence and simple pleasures of a care free day at the Lake.

Red Hat Society Dines at The Danish Tea Room

The local Lake Geneva area chapter of the famous "Red Hat Society" chose to lunch at The Danish Tea Room at SkagenHus today. The menu included our famous Tomato Bisque Soup, Cold Norwegian Fruit Soup, Danish Open Faced Sandwiches garnished with Orange Slices & Grapes followed by warm Danish Kringle for dessert. By the time lunch began, 17 Red Hat members were ready to partake in a unique Scandinavian experience found locally only in Williams Bay.

Judging by the compliments, as well as the laughter, a very good time was had by all. We'd like to thank the Red Hat Ladies for choosing the Danish Tea Room for their event and to let them know we appreciate their business. Come back often ladies, we had a great time too. :) We especially enjoyed hearing about your heritage's and cultural roots. Click here to learn more about this great group of women.
