Peaceful, lovely place in a great location

We chose this cottage as our base camp for Door County exploration and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the selection. The cottage was immaculately clean, well furnished, kitchen well stocked and in a beautiful setting to relax at the end of siteseeing filled days. Our host was very communicative but never intrusive. I highly recommend this property if you’re looking for low key scenic relaxation

Girls get-together

We had a wonderful time exploring Door County. This was the perfect base location for our daily excursions. We loved having our morning coffee on the deck overlooking the water and watching the boats go by. It was was very quiet and relaxing. The cottage is decorated beautifully and had all the necessities. The owner was very helpful and responsive.

Lovely Gem with a few flaws

We stayed here for Father’s Day “week”, we live in Iowa and a heatwave was pressing. Door County is a nice escape from the heat with a mellow vibe if you need a “quiet, relaxing” place to escape. We loved the unobstructed view of the water from this cottage, which is also beautifully decorated. A slight mix up in informing us the dishwasher was malfunctioning via an email I didn’t read until we arrived. A bit disappointing as extra dish towels/ soap/sponges/a dish rack weren’t offered, we remedied this on our own, a bit more “work” than what was anticipated. Not a “deal breaker”, just more a “live and learn”. Property located in a pleasant and safe residential neighborhood. Car is needed for stores/shops, walking trail access.

Amazing getaway

We chose this property for our babymoon, a very important occasion for us as it was our last hurrah as a family of two. The cottage was exactly as listed, very clean and comfortable. The view of the water was gorgeous, and I spent a lot of time relaxing in the hammock. Eric was communicative, and expectations were reasonable and straightforward. We had such a great experience, we will consider returning next summer as a family of three. Thank you Eric!

Needs some maintenance and updating

We were excited to visit Sturgeon Bay Wi. It’s an area we know well. When we arrived the door code didn’t work so unit was left open for us. kitchen faucet worked randomly. Turns out batteries needed replacement. Remote controls for TVs also need batteries. Deck outside is in rough condition Pictures of unit showed a pier but it was not installed. Bathroom shower needed cleaning and toilet was loose on floor. Probably needs new mounting bolts. Nice views of the water. Some type of animal is in the master bedroom wall scratching walls at night. Sadly It’s not rental that we would visit again.

Perfect getaway

We really enjoyed our stay; wonderful views, lots of wildlife action, serene afternoons in the hammock & cozy evenings by the bonfire. The cottage was quiet and clean, and exactly as advertised. There was a small binder with all the information we needed to check in & out smoothly, and all the other details we needed during our stay. Eric was very helpful and responsive, and he answered our questions prior to and during our visit. The only thing we "missed" was a DVD player; but we were able to find a movie on TV for the evening. We are already talking about our next trip to the cottage! :)

Wonderfully cozy stay

We rented this property for a fall weekend getaway and it fit the bill perfectly. Beautiful view of the water from the home (even from the master bedroom). Nice indoor fireplace and fire pit outside and easy to go to downtown Sturgeon Bay and a nice jumping off point to explore the rest of Door County.

A relaxing vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. Very quiet and right on the water. It is a cozy cottage and all on one level with a walk-in shower which was great for my husband who recently had a hip replaced. The only thing I was uneasy about was the fact that there were no coverings on the door or over the window above the kitchen sink. I like everything closed up at night. Thank you to the owners for sharing their cottage with us.
