Lovely home. Beds were comfortable. However hot water in master bath never really got hot. Well stocked kitchen and bath items and beach gear. First time staying where host also was staying, but never heard or saw them. Host did have flowers delivered for us which was a nice touch!

Awesome place in Door County with large family with pets

The only reason I didn't rate it a 5 overall was because the hot water heater, dishwasher, and A/C weren't working great when we were there. Other than that, the place was perfect for our family of 5 with 2 dogs. Within easy walking and biking distance of a beautiful biking trail that goes into Sturgeon Bay. Beautiful property with horses and goats to look at. Host was very responsive with excellent communication.

Peaceful, relaxing hideaway

House was immaculate. Beautiful accommodations. A lot of extras were included. Close to a lot of attractions in a quiet country neighborhood. We often sat out on the deck in the evenings and watched the wild life. A cherry orchard was just down the road from the house. We definitely would book again.

3 nice sized bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. Extra room for an additional air mattress. Any utensils we needed were provided. The house was very clean and nice. Large couch and table for gatherings. Fire pit could have been used. Very easy check in and check out!

Nice place

House was in a nice location. Spacious and roomy. I do not want to give this place a bad review because it really was all in all a nice find! But I do want to mention that the Beds were rock hard! The mattress are best described as camper mattress! There wasn’t much for hot water and did not get hot. The listing says host in lower apartment… maybe that is taken differently to those that read that but to me “lower apartment” means a different unit. Lower apartment in this home was host lived in the basement However, used a separate entry. The stairs from upstairs to down was gated off so I’m not sure exactly the construction. It felt very odd and “off” at first but we adjusted fine. Finally, there was no kitchen dish soap. This comment is a frustration for any place because the hosts give you a list of everything they want you to do to leave the house the way you found it but without the tools to do so. Other than these few things this was a great place!

Upon arrival, everything was clean and just like the pictures and description online. Kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. House was spacious and nicely furnished. Only negatives were the lack of hot water in the master bath shower and the inoperative dish washer. Plenty of hot water available at the master bath sink and other faucets in kitchen and second bath. Appeared an adjustment to the shower faucet is necessary -- it would only move a quarter turn. Recommend a plumber inspect and adjust the shower and the dishwasher be repaired/replaced. Appreciated the use of the washer and dryer.

Tracie was very easy to communicate with. The home was extremely well maintained and equipped. We hosted a small gathering for my mother’s 90th birthday. There was good inside and outside seating, the kitchen was the best equipped of any place I have rented. Tracie allowed us to check in early to set up food which was very helpful. She even sent a bouquet for Mom from a neighboring business. She even offered to mail my grandson’s blanket to him after we left it behind. I would definitely stay here again. Access from hwy 42 was easy. Good space for people to spread out and a variety of games, books, and activities for rainy days. Thank you Tracie.

Totally Awesome GirlTrip 2025

Tracie’s home was very comfortable and nicely decorated. She pays attention to detail… had everything we needed and then some :). Tracie was also a great communicator and prompt in responding. I loved that we had a garage to pull into since we generally came home late… due to all of the fun activities to do in Door County. Our one and ONLY suggestion would be that it would have been disclosed on line that there was a cat nearby….due to allergies ….otherwise, her home was perfect .I would highly recommend staying here… especially if you have a family… sooooo much room!Thank you Tracie for hosting us…

My friends and I had a blast! The property is clean, comfortable, beautiful, and so so spacious for the price we paid. Check-in/check-out process was easy. We were so excited to see horses in our backyard - an added bonus! I will definitely keep this place in mind when I come back to Door County!

We had an incredible getaway weekend! Host was incredibly responsive to any questions that we had, check in was a breeze, and the property was beautiful!! We brought our pups with us, so the huge backyard was amazing for letting them run! House had anything and everything that we could possibly need. We will definitely be back to visit again!

Great weekend stay!

The home was just as advertised. Our host was super helpful and gracious. She allowed us an additional 2 hours to check out as our 3 husbands participated in the Sturgeon Bay bicycle event! Home was clean and more than spacious. We never knew she was home in the downstairs apartment. The side yard is large and next stay we’ll have to remember to bring out croquet set. Thank you Tracie for opening your home to us!

The property is spacious and equipped with ANYTHING one could need. It was a clean home with lots of great places to sit and enjoy time with a big family. We were so happy to stay here. We enjoyed the soaking tub in the master bath and the couch mattresses for our young ones. Ingenious!

Peaceful getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this property. There was an abundance of gathering spaces both inside and outside. A large patio and yard was perfect for a cookout and provided a great place for our dog to enjoy as well. The kitchen was well-equipped and with a large island and dining room table, there was ample space for cooking and enjoying each other's company.

Private Hideaway

Very peaceful, refreshing countryside VRBO. Stocked with any amenities you may need. Garage included. We had too short of a stay but love Door County and this was a wonderful place to stay. Our dog loved running and walking the state trail close by and the lovely large backyard to throw the ring. It was great to wake with coffee on the patio and close the day relaxing.

Serene Escape

We loved this property. It was perfect for our group of three couples. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed having coffee on the patio and feeling like we were in the country. It was a lovely place to come back to after our adventures in upper Door County.
