About this property

Available for the NFL Draft Weekend - Dog Friendly!

Located on a mostly wooded, 2 acre setting on a quiet road, you’ll be amazed that such tranquility and peace can be located so near to all of Door County’s amenities. We're within walking distance to Sip Coffee and Red Putter Mini Golf, a short drive to the Piggly Wiggly in Sister Bay, and a short drive the other direction to Penninsula State Park and Golf Course.

Mingary Cottage is a 3-Bedroom, 2-Bathroom cottage with a full kitchen and comfortable common areas that can comfortably accommodate six people. With wood laminate floors throughout, it's also a pet-friendly house! Some other highlights include two queen beds and two twinXL beds, an outdoor firepit and a large front porch complete with a porch swing, just perfect for sipping an afternoon beverage or watching the sunset.

Oh my goodness, can’t say enough good things about our stay here! Super clean, cozy, and very well stocked. Coffee on the porch in the mornings was delightful, the bed were comfy, and we truly enjoyed every minute. Very appreciative of the communication from the host as well. We will be back!

Fall Getaway in Door County

We spent 7 wonderful nights at the beautiful Mingary cottage. The property is somewhat secluded, but close enough to be just a short drive from all Door County has to offer! There was not one thing that we needed, that was not provided. I cannot say enough about the wonderful porch! Sitting outside with a cup of coffee, a book, or a glass of wine was relaxing, as well as beautiful. We enjoyed watching the deer and the turkeys in the yard. The beds were comfortable, the grill was in like new condition, as was the washer and dryer. We loved the home and can't wait to return next year!

This property was just what we were looking for our getaway weekend! A secluded spot that was close to all the amenities that Door County offers. Communication was smooth, the property kept up and overall just an amazing home for a couple of days.

Mingary rates very high with us

We've stayed in many different places in Door County and must say this was one of the best. It was as described--clean, comfortable, well-appointed, and well-located. It's located in a very peaceful setting about 1/2 mile off Hwy 42 on Orchard Road in Ephraim. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch ... and, well, just everything. Our Scottie enjoyed it, too.

Wonderful Stay

Cottage was great! Well stocked, lots of room, very quiet and great location. Range and refrigerator were nice with plenty of room for lots of food. Spacious living room, tv had everything and wood burning fireplace was very cozy. Exactly what we were looking for. Very peaceful but also so close to Ephraim and Sister Bay and a short drive to Egg Harbor. Great host as well!! Very helpful and informative about the property.

Amazing Stay in Ephraim

I loved my week at the Mingary Cottage! The home was full of light, had soft, comfortable furniture, and great views. My dog loved running around in the front yard. Janell and Kevin were quick to respond to questions and personable. I will definitely stay here the next time I come to Door County!

Amazing House

We loved our weeklong stay at the Mingary. The house is beautiful, the kitchen well stocked with nice appliances and dishes, pans etc. The location of the house is so convenient to shopping, hiking, orchards etc. yet it feels like you're in the middle of the woods. Lots of good birding right from the living room too!

Great Stay

Wonderful place to stay! We loved the quiet location of the of the property. The house was very clean and more than enough room for five adults and one dog. The owners were very communicative and helpful. Towels would have been helpful, but we would definitely stay there again.

Charming cottage in perfect location!

The property was cuter in person than in the pictures! My family with 3 kids and 2 dogs fit with room to spare. We ate meals on the large wrap around porch in the evening with lavender landscaping as our backdrop. The location to the beach, restaurants, state park and shopping couldn’t have been better! My only suggestion for the owners is to invest in bath towels. It’s hard to pack those as well as everything else! Otherwise, exceptional property, good communication with the owners, 5 star stay.

The perfect spot!

This spot was perfect in so many ways. It was centrally located to all the things we love to see and do in Door County. It was quiet and peaceful, with no major traffic or crowd disturbances, just the deer passing by on occasion. It had all the amenities we needed for family breakfasts and dinners together, and provided separate spaces for each contingent of our family (grandparents, parents and children) to have a relaxing and private retreat from each other when necessary. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

We are so pleased to share our vacation home with our guests! In the future, when our kids are grown and we can relax our work schedule, we hope to be able to enjoy a lot more time in Door County. For now, we'll take what time we can and use the rest to share this home with others.

Why they chose this property

We love the proximity to things we like to do while we're here, yet the comparative peace and quiet of the setting.
