Great stay at Tracie's house. The house is very comfortable and fully set up for guests including pets. We could even grill! Our dog was curious about the neighbor's horses and goats. Location was also great, it was in the country but close to everything. Overall great place.

This was a very comfortable place to stay for 3 couples. Large, well stocked kitchen. We really enjoy the peaceful private patio where we can talk and laugh and bonus view of neighbors horses. This was our third stay and won’t be our last.

We stayed here for a long anticipated fishing trip for Chinook “King” Salmon. The accommodations EXCEEDED our expectations with spacious, well stocked and comfortable surroundings, all within a tranquil, quiet, safe, country living estate. Tracy goes above and beyond for her guests and we can’t wait for next years trip!

The property was beautiful, relaxing, and was a perfect location in the country. Tracie was very responsive to emails/texts and everything we needed was readily available, from towels to dishes and pots and pans. It’s a great spot for a mom/daughter weekend or a larger group getaway. I’d definitely put this place as one of my favorites so far.

About the host

Hosted by Tracie Hoffmann

Host profile image
I'm an easy going person, friendly, I keep to myself usually. Feel free to say hello if you see me, but I try to be unseen and unheard as much as possible to give you the space and privacy you deserve.

Why they chose this property

I have lived in Door County my whole life, so I guess it chose me.
I've grown to appreciate the beauty and uniqueness this area has with its long shorelines and picturesque landscapes.

What makes this property unique

Something unique about this property is that I live in the lower apartment which allows me to be available if any issue should arise. I do keep to myself, and am often not there due to my schedule. I do have a couple cats who live with me as well incase anyone has allergies. They are confined to the lower quarters 100% of the time, but air travels so please keep that in mind when booking.
Thank you.
