This is our second stay in two years because we love this cottage so much. It is convenient for exploring the peninsula while still being secluded enough to make you feel like you are truly away from it all. It is cozy and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and bedrooms and a fabulous beach.
We loved staying at R&S Lakeside Cottage. The beach was great! And we had it almost to ourselves each day. We love how uncrowded this stretch of beach is. The water was crystal clear and warm enough to paddle and swim all afternoon. We could walk up to the canal, watch boats come in, and watch the Coast Guard boats fly out of their station. It's an easy drive up to hiking and restaurants in Door County. We hiked Toft Point or the first time, its an easy and beautiful walk right be the Ridges. The cabin itself is beautiful, we loved all the sailing and mermaid decorations. And having AC was an extra bonus on super hot days. It was great meeting Russ and his dog Dixie. We will definitely be back.
We loved this property. The views of the sunrise in the morning and the beach access and hiking nearby are all great attributes. It was a very comfortable stay.
We absolutely loved this cottage as a last-minute wintry weekend getaway. The view was stunning, and the fireplace made it cozy. The cottage is adorable and we appreciated the amenities provided. Everything worked great with check-in, and Russ and Stacy are great hosts.
From the moment you step into Russ and Stacey's cabin you feel immediately at home. The location is absolutely spectacular and feels like a slice of heaven. They are exceptional host's and have thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Our only wish was that we could have stayed longer. We will certainly be back!!
We had the most lovely and cozy stay at this cabin. Super clean. Beautifully decorated. Ideal for staying in or going out. It was truly one of the most magical vacations we have ever had.
We love this place so much this is our 3rd stay here. It is clean, cozy, quiet, comfortable and has amazing views of the lake! It is the perfect place to unwind and get some "lake therapy."
