Winter getaway

Another great time here, the views are spectacular, and while we were here we had some snowy weather which is just icing on the cake. So manny things to do from the snow mobile tour with bar hopping to the dining options. It was so nice to visit in the off season, there is just so much beauty here!!!Thanks again Door County!!!

This is our second time staying here with our two dogs. We love the property so much and don’t want to stay anywhere else when we visit Door County. Best location a little bit away from the action, it’s quiet, peaceful, beautiful, and cozy. Already planning our next visit, can’t wait!

Anniversary Trip

My wife and I and two boys (dogs) stayed for a week and had a marvelous time. The yard was kept so nice, the patio with the firepit was great and the boys really enjoyed the water. It was very warm during our stay so we spent a lot of time in the water. We really enjoyed this wonderful house and it was everything we were looking for. We would definitely stay here again!

My normal spot was booked so I took a chance on this property and it was amazing. The view is wonderful and the hot tub and sauna added extra perks. The location was quiet but still close to everything. It was a great find.

This is a great quiet and peaceful property with amazing views. Close to so many beautiful hikes and shops... all no more than 30 min at most. Door County in the summer is wonderful but winter is also a must! Many things still open off-season!

Hedgehog Harbor Christmas !

Great getaway for Christmas. LOVED the sauna , was hoping to use the hot tub on the water too, but must only be open in summer - will have to come back to try it! We cooked a lot and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed! The patio and bonfire pit were awesome. Amazing views- beautiful rocky beach. Our dog loved the yard, beach, and nearby parks !

Anniversary getaway

The property was just outstanding!!! From the hot tub at the lakes edge, to the hammock. We would have been happy without ever leaving, but there is just so much to see and do all within 20 minutes. From sunset cruise to just sharing a bottle of wine at the restaurant that is maybe a 2 minute drive. We will definitely be returning, and will be staying here again.
