Our girls/friends getaway at Five Birches was great! A lovely and welcoming home with great space to relax and spend time together both inside and on the deck. Kitchen and dining space worked great. Three bathrooms for 6 women was perfect. The location is perfect - a short distance out of town yet close enough to take in all that Door County has to offer. Would definitely recommend to other friends or family. Thanks for helping make our friends getaway all we could have asked for.

Second year just as nice as the first. Wobbly front step still needs repair. Otherwise the place is perfect for eight guests. Be aware, it is in the midst of a forest environment, there will be mosquitoes but the elevated deck helps.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely and accommodating house. The setting was lovely and woodsy, yet close enough for the kids to bike or walk to Fish Creek. The living spaces and kitchen were perfect for congregating. We enjoyed the fire-pit and other amenities. We would recommend this place highly

The 5 Birches property exceeded our expectations across all areas, the cleanliness and condition of the property was excellent. The setting was gorgeous, private and full of natural beauty, which was visible from every room through the numerous and large windows. The property was only minutes from all Door County has to offer, yet felt miles away from everything, in that it was so peaceful and quiet. On our last night, Door County experienced a blizzard, and we were concerned about leaving in the morning, but we found our host to be incredibly helpful and accommodating with a flexible check out time, as we waited for the roads to be cleared before leaving. The kitchen is well appointed and we had everything we needed for a couple of meals in, with enough pots, pans, dishware, glassware and silverware.I can't recommend this property highly enough for families who are looking for time away to connect and spend quality time together. 10/10

About the host

Hosted by Todd or Lisa

Host profile image
Lisa and Todd live near Baltimore, Maryland but both have paternal roots in the midwest. They love good food, good wine, and slow travel and want to share their love of hedonism with you!

Why they chose this property

My grandfather Edward bought this property around 1970 and it passed to my father in 2004. My father and I cleared the home site together in 2008 in preparation for my parents to build, but they both passed away before construction could begin. Lisa and I had fallen in love with the area and decided to continue their plans to build a home here in Door County. My mother named it Five Birches after the grove of birch trees outside the master bedroom.

What makes this property unique

Our favorite things about Five Birches is that it is essentially our own design, the proximity to Fish Creek and the bay, and the private meadow down the trail from the house.
