    The house is lovely - nicely decorated, has enough space for 4-5 people. We enjoyed using the record player and playing the different board games stocked at the house. Lots of space outside with a nice fire pit.

    A nice isolated cottage in door county but close to Sister Bay. Plenty of space to hang out inside with a firepit and cornhole outside as well.

    This cute cottage was a great place to stay when wanting to be close to Sister Bay and explore all it has to offer. We had access to great shops and restaurants and enjoyed the cute living areas inside and outside the cottage to gather with friends! Great memories were made! Made for an amazing 50th birthday weekend with friends!

    Went to Sister Bay for Fall Festival. We LOVED this little house. It was perfect for our group. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed. The fireplace added a nice torch for chilly fall nights & the fire pit & grill were perfect for s’mores and steaks. The home was very clean and the beds were comfy. We would definitely stay again. Thank you!

    From check in to check out this cottage was perfect for our stay. Everything was spotlessly clean, comfortable and exactly as pictured. The owners restored this gem to a beautiful modern cottage with all the amenities you will need for your stay. There were just two of us but it would be great for a small family as well. The location is off the beaten path (away from the heart of town) but nothing is too far away to enjoy making the short drive relaxing and enjoyable especially with the lovely fall colors which grew more spectacular each day. The owners have clearly invented some heart and soul in this property and it shows-they even include some before pics in a little book of the cottage history which was fun to learn about. Thank you for sharing your wonderful cottage with us and making our first trip to Door County so enjoyable! Oh we also tried several of your dining recommendations which were spot on so thanks for the hints. We hope to be back again and if your home is available, we would certainly stay there again.
