About this property

Sister Bay Door County Private Vacation Paradise

Wisconsin's premier vacation destination on the Door County peninsula welcomes guests to this outstanding dovetail log home. Conveniently located just outside the quaint village of Sister Bay, visitors enjoy a peaceful relaxed setting for their Door County vacation or weekend getaway. Whether communing with nature from the comfort of a hammock or exploring the many cultural and recreational activities Door County has to offer, this is the perfect place.

Newly constructed of native white cedar, this hand-hewn, dovetail jointed, log home combines plenty of windows and open space with an abundance of hand-crafted detail to create a warm, inviting setting. The house is tastefully decorated, the bathrooms well appointed, and the kitchen fully-equipped.

You can enjoy coffee watching the songbirds and catch a sunrise from the decks, picnic and siesta among the apple trees, enjoy wine and sunset dinner on the screen porch, and end the day with a campfire. This is all possible at Dovetail Acres, an unique Door County Retreat.

We invite you to enjoy the hospitality of Dovetail Acres and to discover the wonder of Door County from the comfort of our vacation log home.

Very nice and cozy cabin off the beaten path. Very well stocked with everything you need. Shower a little small but works. 3 Bedrooms good size and comfortable. Plenty of shared living space plus deck and fire pit. Terry the owner checked in to see if we had any questions or issues. Liked the restaurant across the street called Thyme. Wine bar and good food.

The perfect vacation

The property was excellent because it is close to Sisterl Bay, just minutes to the heart of town, but it was a setting that was absolutely beautiful. It was the perfect vacation spot because the beauty of nature is there for relaxation and it is close to the center of everything. If you want a true vacation in Door County this is the perfect place

Awesome vacation home!

We had a great time — and hope to stay here again. In particular, we enjoyed the log cabin experience and bird watching on the back patio in the mornings with the perfectly situated bird feeders. The backyard fire pit and short drive to Sister Bay were added bonuses. The property was also clean and comfortable.
