It was the perfect cabin to come back to after our days of exploring. The nap on the relaxing front porch, the private & magical trials were just a few highlights to make this a hidden gem. The inside was perfect in every way.

Thank you so much! We're so happy to hear the cabin felt like the perfect retreat after your adventures. Those porch naps and private trails really are something special, hope to welcome you back again soon!
Beautifully updated cabin... all the amenities we needed, and very clean. Love the location... peaceful and quiet... easy drive to many lovely restaurants, peninsula state park, etc. Couldn't ask for anything more. Will certainly look to stay here again on our next trip to door county.

We had a wonderful time at The Great Escape. The space was perfect for our family of four (teens to adult). The setting is just so quiet and refreshing.

So happy to hear you and your family had a great stay! We hope to host you again sometime.
This is a beautiful, tastefully decorated, well appointed cabin. It’s tucked away at the end of a private residential road…a really nice, quiet place to unwind after a day of exploring. The space is open, modern, and clean. We enjoyed the light walking trail by the house, which was lined with flowers. The location is very convenient. Definitely a great place to stay!

This made our day to hear! Thank you. It was our pleasure to host you, and our team is so glad that you all had a wonderful stay!
Very clean, well-appointed house. Had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The house has A/C and you might consider updating your listing with new pictures as a lot of really nice updates were done to the exterior of the house.

Thanks, Mark for your feedback! We are so pleased to hear you had a great stay and liked the home! We have just recently added some new photos and more to come soon as well. Thanks again!
After arriving at a subpar rental, I was panicked. It was high season, so I assumed we were stuck with what we got. Thankfully we found this place had a last minute opening. The agency was super helpful and got us an early check in the next day. The house was well, clean, great layout and well appointed. Plenty of dishes, kitchen and cleaning supplies. Lots of pillows and blankets to keep everyone happy. Very clear instructions for every little thing (windows, lights, automatic shades, A/C), which was really appreciated. The lot is very private and large. Our kids loved the trails out back. Small and easy walks, but kept them occupied, at least for a little bit :)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Great Escape! Thought the Great Dane theme was cute and there was a ton of extra for our big family like the toddler bed and pack and play and lots of extra linens. We cooked one big meal and it had pretty much everything we needed. Had fast response team from management when anything was needed.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review of your stay at The Great Escape! We're delighted to hear that you and your family had an enjoyable experience with us. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
We really enjoyed being within a 15 min drive to most of the bays in the area. Admittedly, we weren't at the house much during the day, but it is a great quiet spot to end a long day of fun. The property was very clean and obviously well cared for. As someone who likes their privacy, it doesn't get much better than this.

Private and quiet. Nice!
Very good overall. In hot weather, a screen door in the upstairs bedroom would help.

Thanks for providing commentary about your stay at The Great Escape. and for the 5* rating. Please stay with us again.
Super clean and great for 2-3 people. My mom and I enjoyed the patios and seeing the deer in the evening. We had a great stay and would love to come back. Please note there *IS* an AC wall unit upstairs and it helped keep the house cool even though it wasn’t central air. VRBO Property manager had said there wasn’t AC so that was confusing.

Thanks for all your feedback, Julie! We are glad you enjoyed your stay!
The Great Escape offered a clean, well decorated, comfortable home while we toured Door County, Wisconsin. We enjoyed having a full kitchen in which we could prepare our on meals as well as hiking paths around the property to enjoy the outdoors.
A couple of minor issues occurred, and the property manager responded immediately and was very helpful.
The location is ideal for exploring the northern portion of Door County. We enjoyed our time at the great escape with our two adult children.
