8 Miles Of Sand Beach To Explore ~ Outstanding Sunset Views Over The Lake!
Walk 4 miles of empty beach in either direction or bike down a wooded road laced with million dollar homes. Our property is located in the most rural and secluded section of the most desirable Midwestern destination. Bikes and beach toys are provided with this totally equipped home which was built for large group rentals.
Children love to dig a waterhole in the beach, play with the odd homemade wooden toys or watch movies until they fall asleep in their rooms. Adults enjoy sharing breakfast for two on the roof porch or beach swing. The night sky is lit with stars while your family roasts marshmallows over a beach fire.
The beach house sits on top of a dune surrounded with pine trees. Large windows make viewing the lake a treat from each common area. Seamlessly, the stone design blends into the landscape making your transformation from the elegant inside into the dune environment an unforgettable experience. 4 kings, 3 queens, l small daybed, 2 full futons, cots and inflatables

We loved our stay at Marys Beach House. This is the 2nd year we've stayed here for our annual family vacation. The house is very spacious and clean. Views are stunning and we all loved the beach.
The beach house was roomy and home for our family of 11. Ranging from age 6 to 71! The view of the lake from inside was spectacular!The deck, which overlooks Lake Michigan was so inviting. Our grands spent most days and evenings on the smooth sandy beach or in the lake. (Life jackets of course) Mary & Ray were available if need be:)Already looking forward to next time!
This was our third year, and we enjoyed it as much as we always do. Absolutely the best beach in Door County. The views from the house are stunning. The house is like your grandparent’s well-loved beach house; lots of character. Plenty of rooms for our mini family get-together (7 adults & 1 teen.) The upstairs suite is breathtaking! Coffee on the deck, afternoons on the beach & dinners overlooking the water. Wonderful.
Mary's beach house is like coming home. It is a comfortable rustic place to stay with everything you need to enjoy your time on the beach. The views are breathtaking and the property is accessible. We had a wide range of ages with the oldest of our party being 89. The porch was their favorite perch and the path to the beach was easy enough for them to walk. If you're looking for a place that fits all ages, this is it.

Beautiful views on Lake Michigan
Wonderful views the lake upon entry in the house. The space was great with our family and friends joining us to celebrate our daughter's wedding.
Mary's Beach house was the perfect place for a family vacation. Had enough sleeping spaces, enough rooms that if you needed a little quite time, huge deck and wonderful wonderful beach! Laid back, and comfortable for all!
Gorgeous beach, commodious beach house, friendly, interesting owners who were extremely accommodating. Hope to return next year.

Great Location
Great location on the beach and not far from Sturgeon bay! Great views of the lake and beach. Would definitely stay again! One suggestion would be new couches in the living room.
Excellent week in Door County, with family and kids!

Great place for friends to gather!
Beautiful views of the bay! Relaxed and comfortable space to reunite with old friends. Long walks on the beach to catch up with latest news of our families.
Beautiful home. This house has a wonderful homey, comfortable feel. We were a party of 11 and there was enough room for all including a large dining room table to play family games on. The house was very well stocked with all necessities and more. Location was great. Short trip to store, yet located on private beachfront lot. We had a group of all ages and all had a wonderful time.
We’ve been before & will come again as long as Ray & Mary continue to rent! The house is a little dated & full of personal, whimsical touches - not your sterile corporate vrbo stay. But the beach is an unmatched feature among door county rentals. We adore this property and were sad to go. Already looking forward to next year!
The house is very spacious for large groups, right on the water, and dog friendly! Mary is very easy to work with. A great house for a great price!

About the host
Hosted by Mary and Ray Spangler
Ray and I are retired teachers and have owned the property since the summer of 92. There are two previous owners. The first built a 3 bedroom 1 bath in the early 60s; the second added a den and bedroom and bath as well as a deck and screened in sun room in the 80s We started renting in 93 and did an addition to the property in 2003 adding a glassed in sunroom and a 1/2 bath downstairs and an upper story with full bath, large bedroom with 2 beds and mini kitchen: fridge, sink and microwave.
Why they chose this property
I walked down the main hallway and saw the beach and fell in love.
What makes this property unique
The house has 120 ft of sand beach, is quiet and only 6 miles from Sturgeon Bay with its shopping and fine restaurants. Pottowatomee and White Fish Dunes State Parks are nearby and very worth a visit as well as are the other towns and parks on the peninsula about 20 minutes North.
