    We had such a wonderful stay! The house was clean, well appointed, tons of extras ( we played at least 6 games of ransom notes) and the location was fantastic. Quiet and felt secluded (we saw deer almost nightly) while easy drive to attractions and walkable to great breakfast options. Would love to stay again!

    Overall, this was a great property and location for our family vacation to Door County! The only issue was when we checked in, the property wasn't totally ready yet. However, we contacted the property manager and she took care of the issue right away. The rest of the stay was fantastic.
