About this property

Waterfront Door County Getaway | Cozy Cabin Vibes

Welcome to Door County's best-kept secret, where modern comfort meets rustic charm staying in a cabin on one of the few inland lakes. Nestled amidst a wooded lot for privacy, our charming cabin invites you to escape your busy life and make time to reconnect with what matters most. Here, the rhythm of life slows down, and every moment is filled with the promise of adventure and relaxation.

Perched on the shores of Clark Lake, our two-story haven boasts stunning panoramic views and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the cabin with natural light, illuminating a space where memories are made. Step onto the spacious deck, where a farm table beckons you to savor dinner al fresco as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of gold and crimson with one of Door County's famous sunsets.

But the magic doesn't end there. Venture down to the water's edge, where warm, shallow waters await your arrival. Dive into adventure with complimentary kayaks, canoes, and paddleboats. As the day fades into night, gather around the fire pit under a canopy of twinkling stars, where laughter and stories echo long into the night.

Inside, you'll find a haven of comfort and nostalgia. The sunroom offers a cozy retreat, complete with a vintage record player and an array of classic games. In the open-concept kitchen and living area, you'll discover a fully stocked kitchen for meals enjoyed together. And with a pellet stove fireplace to keep you warm on chilly nights, you'll find yourself falling in love with the simple pleasures of cabin life.

Upstairs, a private master suite awaits, offering a king bed, en suite bathroom, and private balcony. An open loft space looks out onto the lake with a smart TV and game table, perfect for movie nights and lazy afternoons. And with two additional bedrooms one with a queen bed and the other with full over full bunks, and two pull-out couches, there's plenty of room for everyone to spread out and unwind.

Located just minutes from Door County's most iconic attractions and close to all of Door County's quaint towns, our cabin offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. Whether you're exploring nearby Cave Point, hiking scenic trails of Whitefish Dunes, or simply soaking up the serenity of the lake, you'll find endless opportunities for adventure and relaxation at your doorstep.

So why wait? Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or simply a place to call home, you'll find it all—and more—right here at our door. Book your stay today and discover the magic of Door County like never before.

Lovely way to kick off the summer season!

This was our second time at the Bay - the first was in the off season, so we were able to visualize what it would be like in the summer season. The landscape during summer is stunning, and a legit bird sanctuary. As always, Jeremy was responsive and helpful from the booking process and during our stay. It’s a lovely family run business and the personal touches we noted and appreciated as a family with kiddos.

Great Place to stay!

Really great place to stay! Absolutely beautiful setting and house. Loved the decor and furnishings and all very well thought out. We loved the pier and fishing. Wish it would been warmer to swim and kayak. Enjoyed the fire pit and location as well. Will probably be back.

Peaceful Stay

We have never stayed in this part of Door County before but we really enjoyed it. Clark Lake is beautiful and peaceful. The backyard is a wonderful place from which to enjoy it with outdoor dining, seating around a fire pit and two chairs and a table overlooking the lake. We utilized all of the outdoor space both during the day and in the evening. We also loved seeing the stream that runs alongside the property. The seating area near the kitchen is also a wonderful place to drink coffee and look out at the lake. We also liked the proximity to Cave Point and Whitefish Bay dunes park.

Lovely winter escape, and we cannot wait to return this summer!

We FINALLY found a lakefront cabin in DC. We usually frequent the northern woods of WI, but with two kids in tow, the drive to DC from Chicago is much easier for the family. The cabin was stunning, and everything lived up to its expectations and above and beyond - we cannot wait to return this summer!

Absolutely perfect!

We loved our stay at this cabin! The property was perfectly clean and exactly as shown in the photos. Being right on the lake was amazing and it was a great home base to explore all of Door County - everything was an easy drive away. Above all, owner was a great communicator and checked in regularly with me to see if I had any questions. We can't wait to go back!

This property was one of the best VRBO we have ever stayed at! It was even better than the photos. So cozy and homey with everything these ladies could have needed for a relaxing girls getaway. The owners were incredible and made sure that all of needs were taken care of. We absolutely look forward to renting here again!! Thank you!

Wonderful

Just two of us for a spontaneous and romantic weekend away. The property was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, the view was fantastic, location was great and the stars at night were spectacular. Beds were comfortable too! The host's were friendly and communicative and very accommodating. We'd come back!

We never wanted to leave!

This was our 3rd girl's weekend at The Bay on Clark Lake and plan to continue this tradition every year....hopefully making it a twice a year trip. We love how cozy the house is, how it's the perfect set-up for visiting, relaxing, games, meals, reading a good book, walking or just quiet time looking at the lake. We love the location, as it's a short drive to anywhere in Door County. And the hosts, Jeremy and Caitlyn, are amazing. They are extremely responsive and available to their renters 24/7. They take care of their homes as if they lived their themselves year round. We are always sad to leave when our time is over, but always look forward to our next trip back. We would never stay anywhere else when visiting Door County!

This House is Our Happy Place

We just love this house! We've now stayed four times during most seasons and all weather and have loved it every time. The space is welcoming, warm and inviting and the hosts attention to detail is evident everywhere. From the welcome gifts, coffee, games, and the guides the hosts provide there are so many little touches everywhere to enhance your stay and make it nice for all guests. If you are staying with dog, there are even food and water bowls in the space. Our last trip was over the holidays and the space featured a tree to make things feel festive. The hosts are super responsive and check in often to make sure everything is in order. One year were expecting severe thunderstorms and they checked in to make sure we know where was a safe place to shelter if needed. The house being right on the lake has been wonderful in all weather. The hosts provide kayaks, canoes, paddle boats etc to enjoy in summer. During our winter trip we enjoyed a walk across the lake and love all the property has to offer. While we love exploring all Door County has to offer, we often spend full days without leaving the property and appreciate having this amazing space to hunker down as a family, enjoy the beauty of Door County and escape the crowds. In many years of coming to Door County we weren't familiar with Clark Lake until we stayed here and it truly is a hidden gem. This house takes advantage of the amazing views of the lake (those sunsets!) and it has quickly become our favorite spot. We stayed at all sorts of places in Door County from large resorts, other houses and small hotels and this is by far our favorite. It's close to attractions like Cave Point, Whitefish Dunes state park etc, but also super private. While everything in Door County is within a 30 minute drive, there aren't restaurants or shops in the immediate area so guests should plan accordingly. Plan to bring lots of food snacks and drinks and settle in and enjoy the space.

Fantastic Week at The Bay

We stayed at The Bay for a week during which we slowed down, sampled terrific restaurants in Door County, and let our Springer Spaniel how to doggie paddle to her heart’s content. Very relaxing, beautiful location, marvelous sunsets! Any concerns don’t hesitate to communicate with the owners, they are super responsive and very helpful.

Perfect fall cabin stay

We had a wonderful experience at the cabin! The owners were very attentive, organized and helpful. The cabin is even better than expected, they had everything you could think of and it was so cozy. The beds were very comfortable with plenty of extra pillows and blankets for our group of 7! The weather didn’t allow us to use the outdoor amenities and deck area but it would have been dreamy if we had nicer weather. We would definitely stay again!

Nice Girl’s Weekend

We took a girl’s weekend up to Door County and this property was perfect. We chose to stay a little bit further out from the main drag of Door Co. and the cabin on the lake was a beautiful place to stay. Everything was well cleaned, and the property owner Jeremy was very easy to communicate with. We loved everything about it!

Host profile image
We believe in collecting memories, not things - and aim to create spaces where you and your loved ones will want to return to for years to come.

There’s no place on the planet I love more than Door County. I’m Caitlyn, wife to Jeremy and mama to two girls, Liliana and Addison. My extended family has been vacationing in Door County for more than 100 years, and I grew up making some of my all-time most-cherished memories here.

It’s an absolute dream to now get to share this place with others... To help you to plan your vacations here, slow down for a little while, and experience time together that will be looked back on warmly for years to come.

Door County is something special—it’s driving distance from Chicago and several Midwestern metropolises, but it’s remote enough to feel like an escape from the regular fast pace of life. You can cozy up by a fire in one of our cabins, spend your days on the water, or explore the specialty shops, unbelievable restaurants, outdoor activities, and delightful wineries Door County has to offer. There’s truly something for everyone in Door County.

Ready to unplug from the rush? We can help.

Why they chose this property

Door County is an amazing place with top notch restaurants, wineries and so many other activities for visitors to enjoy. When you stay at The Bay on Clark Lake, you get the best of both worlds with lake life: boating, swimming, fishing and being close to Whitefish Dunes state park including hiking and biking trails all while being close to everything else in the area!
