Fabulous Log Cabin on Kangaroo Lake in Door County, Wisconsin

This property is really beautiful, and the location is great. The layout worked really well so that everyone had plenty of space, and the screen porch areas were really awesome for hanging out. The lake access worked really well for our paddle boards and it was a beautiful view. There were also a kayak a canoe and a small boat to use, but we didn’t take advantage of that. The fire pit outside was also great for evening. The cabin also has a lot of character. The master suite on the 1st floor is technically separate from the rest of the cabin. And as others have stated the shower upstairs apparently leaks, so we didn’t even use that shower out of fear of making a mess. The cabin also has a prominent musty smell. There were a number of things in the cabin that could be maintained better. The kitchen is a bit small if you have a larger group and plan to cook meals. There was a mish mash of old pots and pans to use, but they're not great, and certain utensils were lacking. The location is really convenient and the outdoor is really nice, but for the price, which for us was almost $600 a night with taxes and fees, we expected better and nicer. The owner was also not responsive. I messaged through the VRBO app when we arrived and needed the Wi-Fi information and I got no response. Luckily we figured that out by trying the three passwords scribbled on the modem. There were no instructions sent ahead of time and there was no booklet inside the cabin to explain the house rules.

Host was responsive and accommodating. Property location was ideal as it was centralized for everything we wanted to do.

The house is roomy and allows our family of six to spread out but also has several areas big enough for all to gather. Morning coffee chats in the screened in gazebo, Yahtzee at the kitchen table, and dinner at the screened porch table are some of my favorite times there. Since the master bedroom is on the first floor, the kids take over the second floor with a large room with 3 beds, a smaller bedroom and a sleeping porch with an inflatable mattress, The Andersens are responsive should something come up but rarely does. They provide a grill, row boat and kayaks for the lake and tons of recommendations for stores and restaurants. The backyard and pier give you access to the lake and a large open area to play games. (We bring bocce and kuub). We love the firepit too! It provides all you need for a fun time. Overall an ideal vacation home!

My family and I really enjoyed this quaint Log Cabin. We were celebrating a birthday and had a surprise waiting for us when we arrived. The property is very secluded and private and the lake is crystal clear! The kitchen was cozy, functional and actually a place we enjoyed even though most of our time was spent outdoors!

We had so much fun. Such a great place to stay. Did a little bit of everything. Incredible view of the lake and just an amazing overall place. Thanks again

Perfect spot for gathering and enjoying all that Kangeroo Lake has to offer. Morning coffee on the patio and evening campfires we’re among the highlights, as well as the ease of sailing, rowing and kayaking every day.

The location of the Log Cabin is perfect for Door County. Kangaroo Lake is centrally located, which makes getting to places easy and efficient from this property. Host was very communicative and clear. The Cabin itself has lots of seating areas for guests, including many screened-in porches and patios. (That said, many screens are in major need of repair--this is one area, perhaps minor, that could be improved). The kitchen is tiny, but multiple dining areas, two grills, etc., are major bonuses. The property (land) and shoreline itself are ample and well-maintained. I would definitely recommend this property to other Door County vacationers.

We love the quiet and calm of being on the lake. The cabin was far enough from hussle and bustle to be relaxing, yet close enough to get to places you want to go in a short drive! Beds were comfy, LOVED the screened back portion of the house. It really let the outdoor living flow easily into the house, plenty of room. Some of the kitchenware might need to be switched out or sharped. But had no problem finded something that would work to do the job. It is not a new posh cabin so if you are wanting this is not your spot. We enjoyed the cabin and it's comfortable atmosphere. It was plenty of room even tho the kitchen being smaller, for 5 adults and 1 medium dog. The dog really enjoy the screen porches too, cool breezes without the bugs! We did not have time to enjoy the boats but did enjoying sitting on the waterfront while the dog took a swim. There is a nice firepit there. We will definitely look for available booking next time we come to the area we had a wonderful time, it was over too quickly!

The property was exactly as described and the owner was very communicative and responsive to our needs. Clean and accommodating property with fantastic access to Kangaroo Lake. Would definitely rent this place again!

Thanks, Heather, for a great place to stay & all of your ideas for things to do! My sisters, spouses & I enjoyed beautiful fall colors, hikes & the peacefulness of Door County from your lake cabin.
