Beautiful Log Home on 5 acres private beach-steps down the road!

This was our second time staying in this home. The cabin is beautiful and surrounded by the best Door County has to offer -- Forest, lake, privacy, quiet, but still only 10-15 minutes away from anything you might need.

Everything went well and we enjoyed our stay, no complaints at all.

It was a lovely home. Their Team was very quick to respond to questions.

This property was perfect for our long weekend. So close to all the shops/activities of Door County but also felt like we were camping in nature. The place had everything we needed plus so much more. Loved that it had puzzles, books and games available if the weather hadn’t cooperated. Enjoyed having coffee in the sun room. Would definitely recommend!!!

House was clean

Nice, fully stocked house. Great, quiet location. Close to Sister Bay, but far enough away to feel secluded. The private beach access was also a plus (just a little unclear as to where the entrance was). Would visit again.

A perfect place for gathering. Spacious, yet cozy and comfortable with lots of natural light. The kitchen is huge and well stocked with dishes, appliances and anything you might need to cook a big breakfast or dinner, which we did often. The front porch and surroundings are great for gathering and exploring without infringing on nearby neighbors. A private rock beach just a short walk away is a great place to sit around a fire pit and soak in the sights and sounds of the lake. We definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nature fix that’s still close to the attractions and nearby towns that make Door County special.

Our family's second stay at this lovely cabin, and we hope to make it an annual event! We actually spent most of our time on the screen porch, wonderful.

Beautiful place!!

The house is well maintained and lovely. The only suggestion I have is to label the light switches and provide info on how they work. There were so many different ones which took multiple times turning on and off, figuring out the dimmer options, etc, it was a little confusing at least at first. (And not much the owner can do about it, but wow were the Mayflies thick!

The home was beautiful and spacious. It was one of the best provisioned rentals we have ever stayed in. Plenty of cooking gear - pots and pans, dishes, cooking utensils and even spices and coffee, plus games, puzzles, books, dishwasher, laundry machines, good internet and and video streaming. Total stress free relaxation.Location, location, location. Located 10 minutes out of Sister Bay off a low traffic road. Pretty much ideal for a secluded low key stay with easy accessibility to most of what Door County has to offer. This property's outstanding condition and its owners attention to details easily make this a 6 star rental. Everyone in our group, including the kids said how much they enjoyed their stay and all voiced interest in a return visit when our calendars might permit. If someone is debating renting this home they need to just stop thinking and do it before their dates are taken by someone else.

Overall, the property is wonderful. Did a family weekend here and it is exactly as discribed. We recommend and we will come stay again.

This property was Beautiful. House was perfect for our Girls weekend. We had 5 young adults and 3 adults. The house had more than enough space for all of us. Kitchen was FULLY stocked. Far enough away from all the crowds but close enough to enjoy all the amenities Door County has to offer. Would definitely stay here again.

A beautiful home in a good location with lots of space. We hope to be back soon!

The property was absolutely Beautiful and we were definitely in our element. We were very comfortable and spent an evening reliving old memories and making new ones.

We have been spending time in Door Co for over 40 years, and this has to be one of the best cottages we have ever rented. Great location, quiet, and access to private little beach area was enjoyable.

The Refuge is just that. We (6 adults) were in the area for a family wedding and we loved coming “home” after wedding-related events and curling up by the fire and relaxing. The house had everything we needed and more! We loved the lakeside views from the beach and had a wonderful time exploring beautiful Door County.

Overall impression of this property was that we didn’t stay long enough to enjoy all it has to offer. The amount of kitchen supplies and other small necessities you would have never thought to bring, they had there for you. The lock for the cabin is very user friendly. The lighting is a little tricky but you get used to it. We did have to make 2 beds upstairs (queens) upon our arrival [all the bedding was there, just not made]. There is only 1 TV in the cabin and is upstairs in back room. Wish they had one in the main living space for background/ games or movies. This cabin will be a repeat booking cabin for a few of the ladies in the group with their families. We may turn this into our annual weekend away. Short drive to multiple locations. Our longest drive was 30 minutes and that was to the Wine Tour Trolley.

A lovely stay in a beautiful home. We had a great weekend and enjoyed the fire pit at both the house and the beach each night! The kitchen was completely stocked with any kitchenware needed to make dinners and breakfasts together for our group. Great place to hang out as a family in between seeing many beautiful sights in Door County.

Wonderful warm and cozy place for a reunion. Well-equipped kitchen, lovely screened porch, access to rocky beach, and welcome solitude. Hosts are great communicators.

We had a great time at The Refuge. The house was beautifully secluded in woods and wildflowers. The property's private access to the lake just down the road from the house offered an awesome spot to sit and watch the water and the moonrise. The house was very spacious, the kitchen well stocked, and dining on the back enclosed porch pretty darn magical. Also appreciated the quality mattresses.

This home is beautiful, surrounded by trees, birds and everything green. Inside is wood and you truly feel in nature. All needs are met in terms of kitchen items, furniture is comfortable and you can choose to eat inside or in enclosed porch. We loved our stay and highly recommend The only tricky part is finding path to beacbeach, but there is a map! Enjoy!

Loved our stay. It's such a cozy home in a very quiet location, yet a short, beautiful drive to downtown Sister Bay. As a serious cook, I thought the kitchen was very well equipped, I always travel with my knife though. Charming touches throughout, and really loved the window over the kitchen sink that let in so many sounds of nature, and the great sunroom. Tons of space for the kids upstairs. The owners, Gary & Kitty, communicated wonderfully. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.

One of our best stays in Door County ever--beautiful home with every thoughtful amenity provided. Even though Memorial Day weekend was a little cold, we spent so much time on that wonderful screened porch. Outstanding!
