Spring Break in DC

My husband,our 3 adult children, and I stayed for 5 nights and had a blast going to all our favorite places in Door County! The Waterview is the perfect place in Sister Bay. Enough off the beaten path but close enough to be walkable. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed! We will definitely be back!

Clean and close

This location was clean and welcoming. Very close to shops and restaurants. It did snow while we were there and there was no shovel available to clear a path. There was also a patch of ice under the roof overhang which was near the entrance. It would have been helpful to have salt to clear it for safety concerns. I would recommend pillow toppers or memory foam toppers for the beds and they were on the harder side. Other than that it was very cozy and we enjoyed our stay.

Adorable comfy home with fully sticked kitchen

Our family absolutely loved our stay! We celebrated Thanksgiving there and were pleasantly surprised at how stocked the kitchen was. So easy to find everything we needed. We took several walks down by the water which is right out the front door. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Nice Little Cottage

This is a wonderful little cottage with a great location in downtown Sister Bay. The cottage has been updated nicely and was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The owner was very responsive. We loved having a gas fireplace. The bed was softer than we prefer so it was not comfortable for us, but we realize this is very much personal preference. Overall, we had a great stay. Thank you, Chris.

Weekend getaway

We have been vacationing in Door County for years. This is our 3rd family vacation using VRBO. This is our first time at this wonderful home so close to the bay. We were very happy with this home - great location, comfortable beds, family room sectional also very comfortable, very clean, had everything you needed, felt like a home away from home. Chris always responded quickly when I had questions. We will definitely come back here.

Weekend at Waterview with adult kids

Very nice, better than the pictures. Location is awesome! We stayed 3 night's and didn't do half of what was available to us within walking distances. We had a lot of fun at Husby's and the Door County Creamery has amazing sandwiches. The property is well appointed with all the little things like, wine bottle openers, scissors, etc. The back. Yard is adorable and private

Best Couples Getaway.

5 stars, absolutely LOVED this property. I've grown up coming to Door County and this was the PERFECT place to bring several friends who were visiting for their first time. The property was stocked with all essentials including shower soap, full kitchen with utensils etc, and they even left a fire wood starter kit. We had 6 guests (3 couples) and it comfortably fit all of us. The location truly could not be better and is walking to distance to all the fun Sister Bay has to offer. This stay would be perfect for a group of friends, families, couples, or truly anyone. I am typically the one who books stays for vacations with our friends and I was extremely impressed with this accommodation.

We’ve stayed in many, many rental homes and this one was by far the cleanest and most well appointed in an unbeatable location. Staying over Labor Day, we got to enjoy the festival a few steps from the house and fireworks over Sister Bay viewed right from the front deck. It was so convenient to have beach chairs available for our adventures. From super comfy beds to the beautiful lake view, this place was perfect.

Summer trip

This place was absolutely the best choice we could’ve made. She was awesome from the start. Great communication. It was the perfect location. We did not need our car unless we left Sister Bay. She has everything you could ever need. We had a wonderful time and are definitely staying there when we come back. Which we will!!! Not one negative thing to say!

Pleasant 3-night stay in late spring 2024

The owners have provided a lovely, well equipped, well maintained, comfortable & welcoming property to enjoy a wonderful stay in Sister Bay Door County, WI. Communication was great. It is just a short walk to the water where you can launch your kayak, enjoy the beach or explore the downtown area, restaurants and shopping. There is a large playground at the waterfront beach. Everything in the rental was very well labelled and the rental expectations were well defined and reasonable. If you like to cook/eat-in, we found the kitchen equipment & appliances clean and well equipped and the seating for 6 at the dining table just off the kitchen was comfortable. All the beds were very comfortable. The generous amount of comfortable seating in the family room, along with the gas fireplace, made for a very nice place to relax and socialize with family & friends. The 2 bathrooms were modern and updated. Try the E-bikes from the rental place just outside of the Peninsula State Park entrance. There are nice trails to ride them on, in the park.

My husband and I purchased this property after staying at a friend's condo in Sister Bay. We had not been to Door County in 15 years and came with our three kids and had a blast. We were not looking but this property was for sale and we knew it was a great loaction and made an offer that weekend. Best decision ever. We love Door County and especially Sister Bay. There has been so many great changes to the village since we bought our house. We are glad to be able to share our house while also enjoying it ourselves.

Why they chose this property

This property is in the perfect location. You literally can park your car and walk to everything Sister Bay has to offer. The huge fireplace was definitely a selling point as we love Door County in the winter months.
