Why the Owner Chose Baileys Harbor

About 7 years ago a friend of ours invited us to spend a weekend with them at their cabin in Door Country. We had never been to Door County before. We fell in love with the area immediately. The Door County peninsula is surrounded by natural beauty. There is so much to do - hike, walk, bicycle, bird watch, fish, and hunt. The list is endless. It is a great place to spend time with family. I love the fact that there are basically no franchises north of Sturgeon Bay. It is all Mom and Pop businesses. It is great to go out at night for a home style meal rather than the fast food we are surrounded with these days. The people are also very nice.

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage

The garden at Carraig Mór is truly amazing. It is practically a mini botanical garden. You can see many pictures of it on this website. You must also read the guest reviews. Our reviews are left on this site are left by our guests directly and not posted by us. As our guests say, the pictures do not do it justice.
We have also made a substantial investment in the house - in fact you are not staying at a house - you are staying at a home and this you can feel as soon as you walk through the front door.

    • We had such a wonderful weekend and what a lovely home to watch the leaves change color. Our time spent at Carraig Mor Cottage was filled with laughter, joy, and family - all the ingredients needed for a great time. However, the home provide the last piece to the puzzle and made this trip such a great experience. The location was as close to perfect as you can get from all that Door County has to offer and everyone fell in love with the garden. You have inspired my mother to try and replicate something similar now in her own home! Everything was right were you said it would be and we never had to search very far for something. Sunday morning was absolutely beautiful and it was truly wonderful to bask in the sun which draped through the large windows all over the house. Thank you again for opening up your lovely home to us and we are already planning our next visit. The accommodations were first class and by far one of the best getaways we've had in sometime. We look forwrad to staying at the cottage again and thank you for the generous hospitality.

    • We had an absolutely magical time at your home with our kids. We thoroughly enjoyed your well stocked kitchen and the warm ambience created by your well thought out decorating. The house lent itself to snuggling up with each other to enjoy special moments. The garden is an out of this world experience. Thank you for your hospitality. We look forward to many returns.

    • What a wonderful and magical place. My words could never do justice to the feelings of serenity that was felt there. We hope to return this summer.

    • Our stay at Carraig Mor Cottage was absolutely delightful! My husband & I were seeking a calm, peaceful port-in-the-storm sanctuary after our survival of his cancer treatment this past year & (most recently) the decision to put our home up for sale. THIS is an absolutely gorgeous property! The wrap-around porch with the wide steps just begs to be used - sitting outside in the morning watching the daybreak, with a cup of coffee & newspaper, eating an apple in the sun or, in the evening to enjoy a glass of wine. The terraced botanical gardens are stunning in their complex landscape design and various rare species. The backyard is completely private, edged by trees that surround the property. This is a perfect venue for an outdoor wedding! We loved exploring the area art gallery’s and restaurants. (Tho, I would kill to have a kitchen like the one at the Cottage!!) The nightly (fireplace) wood fires were our favorite part of the day. [Bundled wood can be purchased (honor system) from properties during your drive around the area.] And, really, we were sad to leave! It’s the first time (for me) that it didn’t seem as though we had been gone nearly two weeks. The owners take meticulous care of their property and are leave nothing to the imagination. They are a dream!

    • Our group of 5 women stayed at Carraig Mor the first week of August, 2009, and it couldn't have been better! At the end of week, none of us wanted to leave and we all decided we could easily live there. From our first steps into the house, we knew it was a wonderful spot for us to relax and reconnect. The rooms were all better than the pictures and the beautiful decorating was exactly our style. The house was the perfect size for us and we really did have everything we needed. We spent a lot of time gathered around the kitchen island and the comfy family room, but our favoite spot was definitely the wraparound porch and the outdoor table and chairs. It was great to be able to sit outside, but still have a sense of privacy that the garden and the yard provided. Bailey's Harbor itself proved to be much more satisfying to us than the other side--no crowds, no traffic, nice beach, great restaurants, great walking routes--all in all, totally perfect in every way! Thank you so much for the wonderful house, garden and total comfort we all badly needed. We hope to return, and are thinking of some winter dates so we can enjoy the fireplace as well!

    • Carraig Mor Cottage was such a welcoming place to land after a day of driving! The house is beautifully updated and decorated on the inside, while the gardens and grounds are stunning and zen-like on the outside. We had cold, cloudy, and rainy weather the week before the July 4th holiday, but we were perfectly happy and cozy inside this charming home. Although there is no nice view of Lake Michigan, there is a harbor only a few blocks away where you can sit right on the lake and enjoy. The gardens make up for not being a waterfront property. Carraig Mor is even prettier than the internet pictures convey - we had a lovely time.

    • October 10 through October 19, 2008 Our second year to spend time in Carraig Mor Cottage could not possibly be as good as the first year, or so I thought. I was definitely wrong! Our visit this time found us staying in for meals more and really utilizing the beautiful kitchen. Again, we felt so at home there and wanted to take every advantage of our "digs". This year we invited relatives with children to join all of us and they enjoyed the cottage as much as we did. Our evenings in front of the fire were so relaxing and a pleasant time for all of us to catch up with each other or to watch a video together. The children really loved the yard and enjoyed it by running and playing in the leaves and swinging in the tire swing. It really is as beautiful in the fall as in all the pictures we have seen of the grounds during the spring and summer. Our family hopes to use the cottage to spend time together again in 2009 because we are shaping our own set of memories in your lovely home. Thank you, The Kesting Family Colleen, Tom, Angie, Alex and the Chris Kesting Family

    • Our group of 7 ladies had a wonderful time catching up in your beautiful cottage. We had previously worked together in St. Louis, Missouri. Now, many of us are retired, and 2 live in Huntsville, Alabama (where our jobs re-located) and the rest of us live in St. Louis. We even had a couple that we worked with visit from Marshfield, WI., and they were very impressed with the house. The cottage was very roomy and extremely comfortable for all of us. We made several fires and enjoyed them immensely. We are amazed at how beautiful the fall colors look in our pictures. Thank you for a good time, Patti, Jackie, Dotty, Mary, Bev, Sally and Marylee
