Relaxing, peaceful location on the lake! Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Very responsive host. Close enough to everything in Door County to make it easy to explore it all but secluded enough to feel like a private escape.

Had a wonderful stay. Expected to do some hiking, but there was a lot of snow on the ground, so we rented some snowshoes. Came back to the cabin and had a cozy fire and watched the lake.

We loved how clean, cozy and quaint the cabin was, so many details to make our stay comfortable! We loved how quiet, peaceful and relaxing the cabin and yard were.

We came to explore Caves Point and Whitefish Dunes State Park in the winter only a few miles away so the location was perfect. Also near by were all the wonderful little unique towns we love about Door County with fantastic eating options, shopping and wine tasting. After exhilarating winter hikes we came back to this cozy little cottage with the wood burning stove that offered a beautiful view of the lake. Clean, comfortable beds and all the wood we needed to keep the stove going we couldn’t have asked for more.
