Delightful waterfront cottage

The cottage is located on a quiet street across from the head of Sturgeon Bay near the Ship's Canal. The property is furnished in excellent taste, is very comfortable and impeccably clean. It is located very close to the main road (WI-42) and close to downtown and all the restaurants. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks to owners Susan & John for offering a special rental property.

Enjoyed our time in Door County

Everything was perfect, from the time I reserved the house to checking out. Any time I sent a message to the owner, I received a prompt reply. The house was perfect inside, recently undated and all you really need to bring is your personal belongings, everything else you would need is provided for you. The location was within walking distance to downtown Sturgeon Bay and also good restaurants. I highly recommend staying here.

Nice place

The house was nice, but there wasn’t a great view of the water. There was a large parking lot from the yacht club in front, construction vehicles, and a big red dumpster. The neighboring homes had pretty flowers in front. This house could’ve used more landscaping. Other neighboring houses were a little run down. The house itself and owner were nice.

What a great spot

We stayed for a week here. The neighborhood was nice and quiet, and it was wonderful to relax and watch the boats go by. There were great restaurants within a mile or so, and it was a great launching spot to explore all of door county. The hosts were very thoughtful in what they included and everything we needed was provided. I would definitely stay again and if I'd had known how much fun we would have had in Door County I would have stayed longer.

Clean, Comfy, Spacious & Well-stocked!

The condo is exactly as pictured. Clean, very spacious, super well stocked with toiletries, kitchen utensils, cleaning supplies, extra towels and blankets. The beds are very comfortable and linens smell nice. It feels like someone actually lives there. Check in and out were easy. Clear instructions and helpful information. Good a/c and bedroom/bathroom fans. Coffee provided. Steaming apps. Good wifi. Neighborhood is not walkable to downtown Sturgeon Bay but we had already planned to drive all over DC anyway.

Clean, cozy place for a vacation getaway

This property was very clean and super cute. It was very comfortable for our family of 4 with 2 teenage boys. All of the amenities in the home were great. The owner was easy to contact and communicated well during our stay. The only recommendation I would make would be to sand down the doors of the bedrooms, bathroom, and closets because they were very hard & noisy to close. I suspect though, that the beautiful new floors were recently installed and maybe they didn’t get to that job yet. The neighborhood was good but we needed to drive to get to all places. We also enjoyed viewing the boats in the harbor.

Sturgeon Bay stay

This was a great location for us as we could walk to the downtown area where there were restaurants, shops, galleries and the Saturday farmer’s market. It was fun to look out the front window or sit on the front patio and watch the sailboats in the bay and the large ships headed for the canal. It is also easy to head north to explore more of Door County.

Perfect location

The Fun Flat was in a great location. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants right in Sturgeon Bay. A short drive to more towns for shopping and festivals being held. Very clean and not too many expectations on clean up when leaving. Will definitely return. Thank you!
