Excellent property in great location

This place was perfect for us. Only a block from the main street of Sister Bay, and it was clean and comfortable. We had a minor problem at check in but the owner quickly responded and the rest of the trip was perfect. Big thumbs up.

Repeat visit - better each time!

This is our third time staying here with our family, it's starting to become a tradition with the kids. As in the past, everything was perfect and comfortable. The house is great for kids and even larger groups. The location is perfect, a 5 min walk to the main street in Sister Bay and has everything you need for a multi-day visit. The hosts are so thoughtful and welcoming and we really feel like we're at home when we stay here. Will absolutely book again and look forward to doing so!

Great girls getaway

Fantastic property walking distance to Sister Bay. The property has every comfort of your own home and is decorated beautifully. With several areas to entertain, rock on the porch and even have a grillout and cozy fire in the wonderfully lanscaped back yard. Stayed here for a girls getaway, the owners even left us fantastic local coffee, cute pink cherry mugs and delicious baked goods. Will be returning for sure!

Opening the Door to Door County

From the moment we opened the door, we knew we were going to enjoy our stay. The description of the property and the associated positive reviews met and exceeded our expectations. This cozy property was just a short distance from main street and was ideal for our generational family of six. It was well accessorized even down to the toys and yard games for the kids. Sister Bay was a pleasurable place to visit and staying here made it even more memorable.

Celebrating the 4th in Sister Bay

The house was amazing. Lot of updates and old world charm. Very clean and hosts very thoughtful they left an apple pie for us to enjoy. Also, very easy access to Sister Bay downtown so you can walk to places. We'd stay again.

Beautiful home and thoughtful hosts

Loved everything about this house and the hosts were amazing! The home is beautiful and comfortable. Location is perfect. Within walking distance to shopping and restaurants in Sister Bay but just far enough off the main road to escape from the hustle and bustle. From the moment you walk into the house, you will feel the personal touches from the hosts. A lovely welcome gift, local coffee, big fluffy towels in the bathrooms and well stocked amenities just to name a few. Would definitely stay here again!

Peaceful house a short walk from Sister Bay Beach

Our family really enjoyed our stay in this lovely and very clean house. Dennis and Joan are amazing hosts! We enjoyed the activity of Sister Bay and the peacefulness of the house and yard; it’s rather amazing the two are separated by only a short walk. One favorite activity was sitting on the front porch watching a monarch flutter through the milkweed while our kids played games in the yard.

Late summer getaway

This house was very enjoyable for our Door County getaway. We were very impressed by the cleanliness of the home. The owners were very responsive and welcoming, including fun sand toys for our girls and all the goodies to have s’mores at the fire pit. The house was equipped with everything we needed and perfect location to walk to all in Sister Bay. We would definitely book this property in the future.

2nd Time in Door County

This was our second time visiting Door County! The first we stayed in a hotel, this trip we stayed at this beautiful home! The pics do not capture how awesome this house is! The location is the best! They have EVERYTHING you need! It’s pristine inside and out! The best is having coffee on the front porch watching and listening to the birds and calmness of the mornings! We hope to visit here again next year! Thank you again Joan and Dennis, ps the pie was an extra treat too!

Great property!

We had a wonderful stay in Door County. The house was impeccably clean, the kitchen was well equipped with the essentials, and there were even a few extra touches like makeup remover wipes, coffee for the coffee maker, games for the kids, and even a “welcome” gift. There are indoor eating areas, outdoor eating areas, rockers on the front porch, well working newer kitchen appliances, a fireplace in the living room, and a washer and dryer … laundry basket and detergent included. We had four adults and two children in our group, but the space could’ve accommodated another one or two adults on the living room pullout, and/or another adult or child on the futon in the upstairs area. Don’t hesitate to book, the property is great!

Why they chose this property

We love Door County! Growing up in Wisconsin, going to Door County was always a special experience. We are truly grateful to be able to share this experience with you! It is our hope you will create happy and lasting memories here too.

What makes this property unique

As we enter 2022, we find ourselves busy with more upgrades and improvements! New kitchen cabinets and countertops were installed earlier this spring. New front porch flooring, new siding, and a new roof along with new exterior lighting all happened in 2021. We replaced old windows and luckily were able to keep all the antique woodwork intact. We look forward to sharing this charming bungalow with you!
