Spot on Door County Vibe!

Quiet property, and very charming home! We loved the patio and the fire pit! Well furnished and stocked for our needs. It was a perfect place to visit with our family, cooked a large meal and played games at the large table too. We plan to book here again. Thank you!!

Weekend trip to Door County

We loved our stay at Tucked Away. The place was very clean. It’s the perfect place for a couple get away, family, or girls weekend. I have to say the bed linens were very soft and cozy! We didn’t cook but the kitchen was well stocked. Once we accidentally locked ourselves out and John was very prompt in helping us.

Clean and comfortable cottage

We had a lovely time at Tucked Away! It was clean and comfortable, with great design sense. Easy access to all the fun in the surrounding towns, but a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy-areas. Great little cottage, perfect for my family of 6 (40s and two toddlers, and grandparents too).

Nice stay in Door County

Tucked Away was a perfect place for our family of five. Location was perfect for us to spend time in Fish Creek, Sister Bay, and a visit to Cave Point Park. The house was clean, comfortable, and cutely furnished/decorated. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Door County!

This 2 story house is in Fish Creek close to Hands on Art (a must try). Clean and stocked with the basics. Includes a gas grill and there was ample wood for the fire pit. More outdoor seating than the pics show. Great spot to explore the Door from!

Perfect location and clean property

Tucked Away was a perfect location from which to launch each day's activities. Centrally located, the home was clean, cozy, and well supplied. We used every amenity: the porch and deck, kitchen, bar, grill, and fire pit. We loved the wooded setting. We spent a lot of time exploring the state parks and kayaking and enjoyed coming home to Tucked Away for relaxing evenings.

Retreat in the woods

We enjoyed our stay in the “tucked away” retreat just outside of fish creek. The location makes access to so many great spots on the west side of the peninsula easily accessible. The beds are high as stated in other reviews but really probably fine for the average mobile adult though probably more challenging for young kids. The landlords were very kind. My wife lost her phone in the couch and they graciously helped us find it shortly after we had checked out!

Very quiet very clean in great location.

Realy enjoyed our stay was a very nice and clean place. The only negative thing was the bedroom in the down stairs was really high. And there was no step stool or any way to help a person that is older or with any disabilities to get in to the bed. She is 5'2" and it was past her waist. We had to lift her i to the bed.

Cozy cottage

My husband, his parents, and myself took this 5 night stay trip here in Fish Creek. This cottage was exactly what I was looking for. While the space is cozy, there was more than enough space for the four of us. The surrounding wooded area is beautiful and quiet. Just 4 minutes from downtown Fish Creek driving but very private. This cottage was in the perfect location for any sightseeing. The hosts fully stocked the home with any was supplies needed. I felt like I was staying at a friend's house. Thank you for such a memorable visit. You made this a very special trip.

Lovely cabin in a beautiful forest setting

My girlfriends and I enjoyed staying in this cabin, about 2 miles away from Fish Creek (a really cute villager but so crowded!). The cabin is in a forest setting, very quiet, so lovely to look out the window at the changing fall colors. Inside was cozy, with 3 bedrooms and 3 comfy beds. I took off 1 star because one of the bedrooms didn't seem to have the bedsheets changed (it smelled like other people). The rest of the house was very clean, and had most things we need to cook our meals. Plenty of extra towels available. I would have loved to stay longer to enjoy the firepit and the outdoor space. 10 min drive to peninsula state park, 30-40 min to newport state park, where we did some great hiking. Thank you for hosting us!

Mum and Sister’s Fall Holiday

The KipDee Cottage was the perfect place for our Fall Holiday. Just the right size for the four of us. Cozy, Comfortable, Beautifully Decorated, Great Floor Plan, Amazing Views from each room and well furnished and stocked. Tucked away nicely but so close to all the restaurants and shops which we enjoyed. We also travelled up to the ferry and back down taking in the views and the farm stands. After our outings it was nice coming home to the cottage because it did feel like home. We enjoyed a bonfire on Friday and it took all three sisters to get it going but it was worth it. LOL Our Mum had never been in a VRBO so she was so excited and enjoyed it. None of us got to enjoy the rocker recliner because she claimed that as her spot. LOL Jon and Lucy Thank You for making such a warm and cozy place for a Mum and her three daughters to make memories that will last us a life time. You are a part of those memories. Our Mum is in her 80’s and enjoys taking holidays with her girls ❤️ Door county is not new to me but it has been years since I had been there and it was nice to see not much had changed ❤️

Property fell short on cooking amenities and issues with shower

Property was in a great location. Arrived to a paper note taped on the bathroom wall next to shower stating that the water would shoot out all over the floor because of a bad design necessitating hopping into the shower, removing the handheld shower and then turning on the water. Home smelled very, very musty and from a subsequent three way conversation with VRBO and the owner, it sounds like this has been an issue the owner has known about for some time. The oven temp was very inaccurate making it difficult to even use and the grill would not heat upon arrival. Owner replaced the propane tank and it still would not heat though it would stay lit so we couldn’t even cook a hamburger on it. Had to resort to using the stove and microwave. There is no exhaust fan above the stove which was odd. Entire property covered in weeds though that was the least of our concerns. If you expect to be able to cook, want two useable showers and don’t like musty smells, this property may not be your cup of tea. We would have preferred that these shortcomings would have been mentioned in the listing prior to renting. We would definitely not recommend.

The Perfect Cottage In The Woods

Tucked Away is a wonderful cottage in the woods. The location is very quiet and peaceful, it is the perfect place to rest and relax after a day of exploring Door County. The cottage was close to everything we wanted to do. The state park, restaurants, shopping were all only a few minutes away. We found the cottage to be very clean and well equipped with anything that might be needed. Tucked Away is a very special place, we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again.

Great and convenient place to stay in Door County

We were 2 senior couples vacationing together and we loved it here. Only complaint would maybe be the height of the beds. But even that wasn’t really an issue as we had plenty of laughs about “leaping” into the bed. One shower is a little wonky but he explains that and as long as you know, it’s all good! Jon was always available if we had a question. Would definitely stay here again!

Lucy and I are educators... We have loved Door County and all it offers since we were kids.
Tucked Away was Lucy's childhood cottage. We are excited to share this wooded Fish Creek retreat with your family.

Why they chose this property

So close to downtown Fish Creek and Peninsula State Park, yet far enough away to enjoy the quiet beauty and peacefulness of the Door County woods.

What makes this property unique

Tucked Away features 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths. In the past few years, the cottage has been totally renovated to create this peaceful and private getaway. Front and back porches provide great outdoor seating areas. Enjoy the outdoor firepit or have a cookout on the back deck! Internet available.
