Welcome to North Bay Tranquility, where comfort meets nature in a serene and pet-friendly setting. This secluded and comfortable cottage backs up to a pristine nature conservancy, providing guests with a 3 bedroom, 1 bath retreat that comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests.
Enjoy a spacious outdoor patio where you can soak in the tranquility of your surroundings. Guests are welcome to use the boat ramp suitable for small watercraft at the end of the lane. North Bay’s water level varies according to season and the preceding month’s weather patterns. When levels are low we suggest walking kayaks or canoes to the water’s edge, then exploring along the North Bay - Mud Lake preserve and some of the last remaining undeveloped Lake Michigan shore line in Door County. North Bay is known to typically have calm water.
This property allows up to 2 well-behaved dogs. There is an additional fee collected at booking.
