The staff was great and welcoming. We were placed on the lower level. This property is close to Sister Bay and Ephraim which is out favorite Door County towns. The property was clean and maintained. The only issue we had was the level we were placed

We usually camp when in Door County but decided on a last minute visit. Condo was perfect for our weekend visit. Excellent location along Hwy 42. Added bonus was the proximity to the Fyr Bal festival in Ephraim.

A clean beautiful property. The pool area was very nice, and we enjoyed the hot tub. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Wish it would have been warmer, to enjoy the little balcony. Would definitely come back.

Place is great. Gives you that nostalgic 90’s family vacation hotel vibe in the best way possible. Everything is clean. Stewart and Ron were both very helpful and friendly (despite being a Bears fan). Have been twice with family and will go back again.

Anniversary Weekend

The check in was easy and receptionist was friendly. Overall very clean and appealing. The bed was a bit too firm for us, but the room was comfortable and clean. The receptionist during the day was less than friendly. Would most likely stay again.

Okay stay - no exercise room -hard bed

The place was cute. Extremely disappointed there was no exercise room. It advertised having an exercise room. The bed was extremely hard. There was a family ping pong area and the lobby offered family games.
