The friendly community of Cedarburg has it all

Community Events River Historic Architecture Restaurants Family-Friendly

Barely 10 minutes from the shores of Lake Michigan, Cedarburg delights with a little something for everyone. A characterful downtown area, highly-rated schools, and pristine parks make this city a hotspot for families and a fantastic locale for those looking to relax.

Washington Ave. is the heartbeat of Cedarburg. It houses a collection of charming restaurants, cafes, and boutiques in an undeniably appealing aesthetic. A mixture of Greek Revival and Queen Anne architectural styles give the area a historic feel, but with places like Stilt House Gastro Bar and the raved-about Italian food at Tomaso’s, the offerings are anything but outdated.

With Cedar Creek running right through town and the parks that flank it, there’s natural beauty all around the city. There’s a number of annual events put on, like Oktoberfest, the Winter Festival, and the Wine and Harvest Festival. Whether you’re raising a family or looking for a fun, engaging community, Cedarburg appeals to all.
