Updated Vintage 1938 Log Cabin – Walk to Sister Bay
Step Back in Time: A Lovingly Restored 1938 Log Cottage in Sister Bay
Welcome to your perfect Door County getaway! Originally built by a Norwegian immigrant in 1938, our historic log cabin has been lovingly restored to blend vintage charm with modern, fresh amenities. If you are looking for an authentic, cozy, and unforgettable Wisconsin retreat, you have found it.
The Perfect Location: Walk to Town, Retreat to Peace Nestled along highly desirable Bay Shore Drive, you get the absolute best of both worlds: A 5-Minute Stroll into Sister Bay: Leave your car behind! You are just a short, scenic walk from the vibrant local beach, marina, waterfront park, charming boutiques, coffee shops, and iconic restaurants. A Quiet Sanctuary: After a day of exploring, retreat to your private, peaceful cabin to unwind, listen to the breeze, and truly relax. Central to Everything: Want to explore the rest of the peninsula? We are centrally located, making Ellison Bay, Gills Rock, Ephraim, Fish Creek, Egg Harbor, and Baileys Harbor an easy 5 to 20-minute drive away.
Cozy Comforts & Thoughtful Spaces This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage is fully equipped with everything you need for a seamless and relaxing stay: Main Level: Features a cozy bedroom, a bright and open family/dining area perfect for board games or movies, a fully equipped kitchen for home-cooked meals, and a pristine bathroom. Upstairs: A spacious, whimsical bunkroom that kids (and kids-at-heart) will absolutely love.
Year-Round Comfort: We welcome guests through all four beautiful seasons! With whole-house heating and central air conditioning, you’ll be perfectly cozy whether you're watching the autumn leaves fall or coming inside from a winter hike.
Outdoor Living at Its Best Our favorite feature is the expansive wrap-around deck and front yard. Your daily itinerary here looks like this: Morning: Sip fresh coffee on the front deck as the morning sun hits the trees. Afternoon: Fire up the grill for a relaxed lunch on the back deck. Evening: Pour a glass of wine and watch the spectacular Door County sunset over the bay. Night: Gather around the fire pit for s'mores, storytelling, and unforgettable stargazing.
