41. Hartford, WI

Hartford, Wisconsin has almost the perfect small-town atmosphere. Just north of Milwaukee, these people are overly friendly and always welcoming. Everyone seems to know each other in this close-knit community.Nearby, it is easy to find amazing scenery at the kettle lakes, the scent of cow poop, and an amazing view from the top of Holy Hill. There is a church on top of this hill that is worth checking out no matter what your religious orientation. You can see for miles upon miles from the top (the city of Milwaukee appears in the distance). The chapel also seems to have some sort of inexplicable healing power. Upon entering the room, it is impossible for it's energy to go unnoticed. As you approach, you will see a wall full of crutches from people who couldn't walk into the room, but were able to walk out (so they say).If you're hungy, the Mineshaft is Wisconsin's largest restaurant and bar. Equally large is its menu which lists everything from American to Chinese to Italian to Mexican food, and all of it tastes great. This restaurant alone is resason enough to visit... not to mention my Aunt Lois and Uncle Dave... they'd probably teach you some crazy camping games and kick your butt in dominoes if you just ask. Just don't get too out of hand, or my cousin will arrest you. Seriously, the people of this area are very sociable and seem to love everything, not just the Packers.
