Key Milwaukee Magazine

Last Friday of August, aka the last chance to get your waterfront fix before the cold weather steals it away! 🥶

We've sniffed out 4 of Milwaukee's best-kept secrets: hidden gems that are basically invisible unless you have a treasure map (or a friend who's in the know). The catch? Some of them are total winter wimps and close up shop when it gets chilly.

So grab your squad and get there before they become Pirate tales 😉
