About this property

Gilded Age Mansion

Transport yourself back in time to America's Gilded Age to luxuriate in the mansion of a 19th-century aristocrat. August Schuette made his fortune with his family's Manitowoc department store. This is the home he built for his family, now lovingly restored to its original grandeur. Then and now, the Schuette Mansion is the epitome of understated elegance and luxury. Even the modern high-end kitchen retains the luxury appointments of an age gone by.

A stay in this lovingly restored 1895 mansion is to immerse yourself in the gentle luxuries of a bygone age. It melds the elegance of an English Victorian country house with the coziness of a family retreat. Whether you are looking for a memorable family holiday straight out of a Hallmark movie, coming for a Packers game, appreciating the spectacular culture and scenery of Lake Michigan's "Coolest Coast" or throwing yourself body and soul into the water sports that have made this part of the Great Lakes a recreational paradise, this magnificent home will be your solace and refuge. Its five large bedrooms comfortably sleep up to 11 guests.

The modern kitchen and two full baths are beyond luxurious.

And the charms of this lovely town with its downtown shopping, dining, arts, culture, marinas and lakeshore walks are only steps away from your comfortable porch!

Really cool house
This is an awesome old home with a lot of character, that has been updated well. We had seven adult family members stay. There was plenty of room, furnishings were great. We were very comfortable and all commented that we would stay there again.
