This cottage is absolutely amazing. Well kept up and modern and very close (but out of the way) of town. I often walked to get to the Bay Area and town. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.

First stay in Sister Bay

We loved the property! It was just a couple blocks off of the downtown strip and the water, but very quiet and had a real cottage feel with great updates. Really the best of both worlds because it was close to everything, but the little backyard was private and had a woodsy feel but close to lots of great places.

Hits the spot

For me this stay it was perfect location - choice of spots to watch the game, eat and meet friends for cherry drop (look it up), all 5 minutes walking at most. The cottage was cleaned professionally, well outfitted and kept up.

Nicely updated cottage

Nicely updated interior to an old family cottage provides the modern amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Nice location just outside of downtown Sister Bay makes it easy to walk or bike to all the town has to offer. The house is perfect for a small family getaway.

Great home, great location

Very comfortable place to relax, sleep and decompress. Sister Bay is a great place to stay as it’s easy to get to any destination on the Peninsula from there. Good communication with homeowner and all of the home rules and expectations are clearly laid out.

Honeymoon House

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The furniture in the bedrooms was a bit different than we were expecting, but it didn’t make too much of a difference for us. The location was fantastic and it was a good “home base” for us while we adventurer around Door County.
