About this property

A mid August week awaits or join us for the Fall Festivals. Fish Creek is great!

. A good example of a traditional Door County cottage, perfectly located across from the Fish Creek bathing beach with a wonderful view of the boats at anchor and the islands of Green Bay. This spacious house can comfortably sleep ten, so it is perfect for groups and large families. The great room is light and airy and opens onto a front porch big enough for all. Though you will find it hard to leave the porch with its wonderful view, you'll want to explore some of the peninsula's best restaurants and shops, only a short walk down the street, in the heart of the village. Go a half mile in the other direction and you'll be at the main entrance to Peninsula State Park featuring a variety of hiking trails, a bathing beach with boat rentals, seven miles of bike trails, bike rentals, an 18 hole golf course with views over Eagle Harbor, as well as miles of peaceful forest lanes perfect for viewing wildlife and spectacular vistas from the limestone cliffs.
The bedrooms have hardwood floors and a closet and are plainly furnished in cottage style. All are light and airy: four are fairly large - none is small and two have water views.
The upstairs bath features a tub and the downstairs bath a modern shower stall.
A wonderful home to make long-lasting memories!

** 1. Sorry, but we do not allow pets. 2. Guests must bring their sheets and towels 3. We don’t have air conditioning but plenty of fans including a whole-house ceiling fan in the upstairs hall

Perfect spot

The house was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Fish Creek is much less crowded than the towns to the north and this is a perfect spot - walking distance from town and right across from the beach. Very close to Peninsula State Park.

Perfect family get-together

Location is great... walk to shops, beach across the street, cafe next door! Grandson runs cross country & made use of trails in Peninsula State Park only half mile away, while grandma enjoyed sitting in the front porch enjoying the view. Owner quick to respond with any questions & plenty of room for all. Definitely recommend!!

My friends and I had a great time! Only issue we had was we weren’t aware there wouldn’t be sheets, towels and hand towels so we had to buy our own in town.

Great location

It is a beautiful old cottage in a GREAT location. We really enjoyed our stay. Easy walk into town. The interior of this gem of a cottage needs some tender loving care as the floors are showing a lot of age damage and walls need new paint. Better furniture that is consistent with an older rental home and supporting out of town guests is recommended. I felt like I was staying in an old dorm room with the provided furniture. Small investment s to upgrade furniture and property would make this a 5 star stay.

Perfect Location

First time visitor to Door County. Property is located a very short walk to Peninsula State Park, which contains many beautiful hiking and biking trails. The enclosed porch overlooks a stunning view of water, boats, sunrises, sunsets! No airconditioning but the house stayed very cool amidst warm temps.

Friends get together in Door County

We had an awesome time in Door County. This property has an excellent location in Fish Creek. We could walk to go out to eat or go shopping. It had the feel of staying at Grandma's house. We loved it. Beds were very comfortable. We had a wonderful time. Thank you.

Old and tired. Needs work

I felt like I was staying in a garage sale. Furnishing were just junky, broken and dirty. I can’t believe that four appliances were plugged into one kitchen recepticle. Same in living room. Constantly afraid of overload.

Classic Home in Artsy Area

We had a wonderful stay at Louisvilla! It is a gorgeous, classic home in a prime location. There was ample room, games for the kids and the house reflected the genre it was from. Really loved the trim work! My only recommendations would be 1) to warn renters there are mostly 2-prong outlets in the house. If they need a 3 prong plug they need to bring an adapter. 2) Lugging sheets for all the beds was a bit cumbersome, but that is just because we planned to hit the beaches too. Loved the drying line out back. 3) Thank you for the glassware and plates but it all needed to be washed before use. Not sure if that was previous renters or cleaning crew. But, that said, Door County is a beautiful area and I would highly recommend staying here!!

Best Location!

We loved our stay. It was spacious, yard was great, loved the front porch and view. Couple of suggestions: I think there should be a disclaimer for people traveling with young children that the potential of lead based paint in the home is very high throughout with chipping/peeling inside and out. I think maybe consider a linen exchange with the cleaning crew as providing for 8 beds was a little cumbersome. We had a great time!

this worked well for our moms weekend away but it was not really clean. you might want to look into changing your cleaning people. also a large skillet would be good for group eggs in the morning!

Great view & location but the cleanliness of the house poor. The floor was dirty in all rooms with food scraps & dirt. The bathrooms need a real good cleaning ceiling to floor.

beautiful old place in an awesome location

very spacious and nice place to stay. we had 5 adults and an almost 1year old. the bedrooms were roomy with beautiful views. the porch was perfect to play cards on during the baby's nap times. the home is in a great location - within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. providing our own linens (bedding and towels- bath and kitchen) made packing pretty bulky with packing the kid's extra needs (pack n play, toys, and stroller). Since there isn't a dishwasher and dishes are washed by hand, it was very helpful we had a bottle drying rack - I would recommend packing extra towels/drying mat/rack if you plan to have dishes. home doesn't have many outlets where we needed them, so packing a few short extension cords really helped. the beds and couches are very soft but did their jobs. we absolutely loved staying here and plan to stay here again in the future! I would recommend this place to others!!

The perfect vacation home for 8 sisters.

This was the perfect vacation home for 8 sisters traveling to Door County. It was right on the main road in Fish Creek and within walking distance to anything we needed. With a coffee shop next door, fantastic restaurants and shopping just down the street in one direction, Peninsula State Park just a short drive in the other direction, and the beach right across the street, we couldn't have chosen a better location. The home itself was great. The front porch was perfect for relaxing, reading, napping, and enjoying that early morning cup of coffee. The bedrooms were all very spacious and bright, especially those with views of the beach. It got a little warm in Wisconsin the first night, but the attic fan upstairs kept the rooms cool and comfortable. The beds were all very comfortable. On the first floor the living area was large, open and spacious, with plenty of room for a large gathering to enjoy time together. The owner was pleasant and easy to work with. She even emailed me ahead of time with ideas for day trips to the lighthouses, wineries and sailing (all of which we took advantage of). The only drawback was lack of electric outlets in the bathrooms (We knew ahead of time that with 8 girls, two bathroom and only one shower we would need to bring extra extension cords to do hair and makeup in our bedrooms), and the fact that we "blew a fuse" when more than two people used a blow dryer at the same time. Both things were easily remedied, but it's something that's nice to know ahead of time. The photos posted on the VBRO/Home Away website of this home are just what you will see when you arrive. The home was clean and the lawn mowed. Highlights of the trip were the lighthouses in Peninsula State Park and on Cana Island, an early morning sail on the Edith M. Becker schooner out of Sister Bay, and the Peninsula Players Theater right in Fish Creek. We loved the outside fire pit and sunset over Green Bay and laughed our heads off watching Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps". I would recommend this home, Fish Creek and Door County Wisconsin in general to anyone seeking a vacation that can be both relaxing and exciting.
