Bayfield Wisconsin: Batten the hatches of love!
Bayfield Wisconsin: Batten the hatches of love!

Autumn in Wisconsin just screams for gently whispers for a romantic getaway. And lucky for you, the folks at Discover Wisconsin have assembled a list of our state's "most romantic towns." I'm not sure what yard stick they use for this – or how they could possibly have romance-tested every town in the Badger State – but they did describe some classically romantic activities to be found in seven different Sconnie bergs.

You've got bicycling by orchards up in Bayfield, farmers market shopping in "casually elegant" Cedarburg, and lusty pontoon boat rides at sunset in Ephraim. They even honor Hudson, what with its copious hot air balloon opportunities and historic homes. Rest assured, there's a lot more to Hudson than that chunk of I-94 you drive on your way to The Cities – and there better be if it's going to compete for trysty visits with sexy Stillwater, Minnesota right across the river.

So if you need an amorous getaway in a bad way, check out the full list. They even include sultry Spring Green where you and your partner can enjoy a hot-n-heavey visit to the Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center.
