Best Door County Trip Ever

I've been coming to Door County for 70 years from childhood with my parents to now, a grandpa with 4 grandchildren. This is our second stay here and it was wonderful in every way. We enjoy the privacy of this beautiful home and the convenient location, just a few minutes away from Ephraim or Sister Bay. Just a bit farther to Bailey's Harbor. Nothing but superlatively positive comments about the home and its owner who is always ready for questions or concerns that may come up. We'll be back.

Perfect Sister Bay and Ephraim Getaway

House was the perfect vacation for my family vacation! The house was well appointed, clean, and with a great location. There was play areas for children. Lots of TVs and separate hang out spaces. The kitchen was large and easy to navigate. The host was responsive to questions. Don’t hesitate to book for your door county family vacation!

Gorgeous home in the woods

Stayed with my family for fall mini vacay (9 women aged 25-75), space for all of us, great decor, everything you need in the kitchen, beautiful bedrooms and master bath, lovely woods to walk in, quiet neighborhood, and many areas to hang out. Really nice screened in porch and outdoor FP, we had the best time! Highly recommend.

Beautiful Home

Thank you for sharing your beautiful, spacious, and well located home with our family. Our group of 5 retired siblings and their spouses thoroughly enjoyed all of your amenities and the easy access to many of the attractions in Door County. We also enjoyed the frequent visits from the wild turkeys and deer. Since we all enjoy cooking and eating, the well equipped kitchen and large dining table were especially appreciated. The only item we wanted and couldn't find was a pie plate. We only wish the weather had cooperated a little more so we could have made more use of your outdoor spaces. Maybe next time.

Absolutely wonderful!

My husband, 2 daughters with their families and I spent a great week in this lovely home - 6 adults and 4 kids ages 1 to 6. While this would be a fabulous place for adults, it was also very family friendly. We ate dinner in the large dining room, played with Legos in the screened porch on a rainy morning and made s'mores in the outdoor fireplace on the deck. The front and back yards were great play spaces. The kitchen had a huge supply of dishes (plastic and china), silverware and pots and pans. There was a double oven, large fridge and pantry. We used it all. There was a nice variety of toys and especially nice kids' books. Each family had bedrooms and bathrooms on their own floor, so we could choose to be together or have some privacy. We made great use of the Door County fun close by, but we could escape the crowds in this secluded space. And the owner was very responsive to my many questions before our stay. My family gathers somewhere every year. If we return to Door County, we'll hope that this house is available.

Amazing

Great place that could accommodate all of our extended family in a central location. The kitchen was wonderful for a big group and had everything you could possibly want for cooking and grilling. We loved the large tables and many chair for dining indoor or outdoor. It was a very memorable experience and the house allowed for us to have a lot of together time and enough room for privacy also.

Family stay

The house was absolutely beautiful!! There were so many cool touches that made it unique and so homey. I would definitely stay here again if we came back to Door County! We did a lot of touring, so didn’t spend as much time at the house as we would have liked too, but the time we did spend there cooking and on the patio with the outdoor fireplace was so memorable and relaxing!!! The owner was amazing at getting back to us quickly and seamed very kind and caring. I would recommend this home if you want a beautiful, clean, upscale home to enjoy with friends or family!! 💜

Perfect family vacation home

Amanda, We absolutely thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Norra Skogen. It was a fabulous house for me and my family from the UK to get together in. Plenty of space for all and so beautifully decorated - we felt at home immediately. We also found the location - close to Sister Bay, with all the restaurants, beach and boat hire and a hop skip and a jump from beautiful Ephram. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!!

Wonderful family getaway

The large home was spotless and beautiful. Plenty of amenities. Check in and out were easy. The kids loved running around outside and roasting marshmallows in the outdoor fireplace. Internet kept going out, but not the property’s fault! Had some movies interrupted and one of the adults sadly had to work over the weekend and did have to go to a coffee house to finish. Don’t let this deter you from the overall experience. We were incredibly happy with the kind service and beautiful decor. My son left his tablet accidentally at check out, and the cleaning staff reported it and the owner called me immediately to arrange getting it back to us. What wonderful service!

Winter Wonderland

Wonderful home, centrally located to everything in Door County. Home was super clean, well furnished and very comfortable and cozy. Only a few minor complaints, that are barely worth mentioning...(a few light bulbs out and really poor Internet...although the poor wifi/internet is likely a location/Door County issue given that we have experienced problems before at other homes in the Door). Overall, the owner and manager were extremely friendly, very responsive and nice to deal with. The home is very well appointed and very cozy. It's on a large lot and tucked back away from HWY 42 allowing for privacy, silence and wonderful walks just outside the front door. Great for large families. We would for sure recommend renting from this owner and staying at this home!

We have been to Door County many times and this was the best place that we have ever stayed at.

Fantastic location situated between Sister Bay and Ephraim/Fish Creek. Very private and well suited for a family get together, in our case 3 generations (kids and grandkids). Bedrooms and bathrooms are well designed. Kitchen is big and well stocked with dishes, pots, pans and all the amenities we needed. Very close to grocery store, beaches and various outdoor activities. My family (and I) would highly recommend this rental for a family get together or a number of couples/close friends that want a great get-away-location in Door County. My hat's off to the host!!!
