Loved it!

This place is just what we needed for our stay! The closeness to the lake and lighthouse was a bonus! We joked about the deer and fish on the walls, but my husband was in heaven. There were so many trails on the property we enjoyed before heading out to allllll the Door County things. ❤️

Amazing getaway!!!

The home was absolutely wonderful! Very clean and well equipped and beautifully furnished. Beds were very comfortable. We saw lots of deer and turkeys on the property. Very quiet and just a short drive to town. Ryan was a wonderful host too. We have stayed in several VRBO's and this was one of our favorites!

Door County Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this secluded property. The home was wonderful and very well appointed. Everything we needed was supplied. The beds were very comfortable. We loved the outdoor area and deck. This was a great property to explore all of Door County as you could travel between all of the quaint towns in about 30-60 minutes. Highly recommend.

Fourth of July fetawayy

This quaint home is clean, roomy and perfect for hosting three adult couples. Comfortable beds welcomed us after long days of cherry picking, light house sightings, wine tasting, hiking state parks, beach time, fireworks show at Sunset Beach and strolling the downtown area of Sturgeon Bay. This short drive to all major attractions was no problem for us. Highly recommend for your next stay!

Great Cottage in secluded spot

We had a great stay! It’s secluded but only 10 minutes from Sturgeon Bay. We had three days of exploring Door County. The hosts were great and easy to communicate with. They had everything we needed at the cottage. Only downside was the weather, we didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit due to rain. Would love to come back sometime.

Very nice place. Extremely clean. Great location, very private. Everything you need for six people is supplied but if you don’t want to wash towels everyday you may want to bring more of those. Other reviews seemed to have complaints about the beds being hard but our party of six all thought the beds were very comfortable. Absolutely no complaints. Enjoyed our time and the area.

The Home in the Woods

As three college roommates that take a yearly trip together, we arrived to our “home” for three nights. The home was inviting, starting with the welcoming fisherman statue. We enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, the warm fire during the chilly nights and the comfortable beds. I would definitely recommend this rental to a family or friends. The surrounding area is beautiful especially with the fall colors. It is close places in Door County. One of the nicest homes to rent.

Great home! It was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle. As soon as you walked into the house you felt like you were right at home. The backyard was so pretty. The firepit was excellent and cozy. Just the overall experience was great. Ryan our host was prompt and courteous to get back to me almost immediately when I had a question.

Autumn Sisters Trip

Very clean and roomy house. We enjoyed the beautiful trees on the property. Great to have a washer and dryer available. The bed in the room to the left of the bathroom was really hard-could probably use a mattress topper. And window coverings in the bathrooms would be helpful even though there’s no other houses around. Other than that, it was a great place to stay.

Three couples get-together weekend. We were so in love with this property. Beautiful inside, beautiful property in the woods, very clean, firepit, deck, grill, well stocked kitchen, basket of brochures for area sites, so many little things they add to make your stay more enjoyable.... until we tried to sleep. All of us found the mattresses very hard, beyond firm. It affected our sleep and affected some of us physically the next day. Our mattress was so hard it was like sleeping on a carpeted floor, no give whatsoever. Sleep comfort is a deal breaker for us so we cannot recommend this rental. Perhaps offering mattress toppers may help.
