Summer is finally here, and as the weather continues to warm and the daylight stretches even later, it's the perfect season to spend quality time soaking in the sun outside with loved ones. And what better way to do that than with a picnic?

LoveFood searched around the country for the "most scenic picnic spots" in every state, gorgeous destinations to lay out a blanket, crack open a basket full of your favorite summertime treats, and enjoy a meal with friends and family.

According to the site, the top spot in all of Wisconsin is Harrington Beach State Park. With relaxing views of the surrounding natural beauty, this place is the perfect backdrop for a memorable picnic.

Here's what the site had to say about this beautiful Badger State spot:

"You can picnic right at the water's edge in Harrington Beach State Park. It's pretty hard to find a spot that doesn't have a view of Lake Michigan, in fact. Unfold your chairs or spread out a blanket on the grassy lakeshore, or relax on the sandy beach. The park has even more water in the form of Quarry Lake, an old stone quarry that's now filled with limpid water, and popular fishing spot Puckett's Pond."
