Simply amazing!
This was one of the nicest VRBO's we've ever stayed at. The home is set up for comfort and relaxing with a group, and feels truly high end. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need for making meals (or treats!), we could sit our entire group comfortably in the family room in the downstairs level, it was an easy walk to the main area of Sister Bay and an easier drive. The communication from the host was incredible, with all of the information needed to access the home amenities as well as great restaurants to check out (Thyme + Twelve Eleven was a great wine bar within a mile from the home). We didn't take advantage of the outdoor couch/fire table, or fire pit, but that is because we had just a short weekend and couldn't fit everything in. Our group is already making plans to try and stay here again this summer to enjoy the home, and Door County, in warmer weather.

About the host

Host profile image
We are orginally from the Green Bay Area, which is where our love for Door County began as children.

We absolutely love everything Door County has to offer, from its charming towns to its natural beauty. We've spent summers since childhood enjoying the scenic views, taking part in outdoor waterfront activities, and exploring the unique shops activities, and restaurants.

Some of our fondest memories were made right here in Door County. One of our first dates was at the Skyway Drive-In in Fish Creek, and we even got engaged in the breathtaking Peninsula State Park. These special moments have made Door County a place of great significance for us.

We have a deep passion for Door County, and we want to share that love with others. Hosting allows us to welcome guests and help them experience the beauty and joy of Door County with their own friends and family. We truly enjoy working with our guests to make their stay extra special and create lasting memories for them.

When you stay with us, you can expect a warm and inviting atmosphere. The Ephraim House and The Sister Bay Haus are designed for relaxation, and we're happy to provide recommendations for local activities and experiences to enhance your trip. We're here to make sure your stay is exceptional. We're always available to assist you...your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities!

Our properties in Sister Bay allow our guests to experience a different side of Door County. From enjoying live music and events in the heart of the village to exploring the waterfront, Sister Bay provides an energetic and dynamic atmosphere.

Whether they seek entertainment, outdoor activities, breathtaking sunset views, shopping, or dining, our accommodations in these two diverse towns offer a well-rounded Door County experience. Guests can choose the ambiance that suits their preferences and have easy access to all that Door County has to offer.
