Quiet time

Nice house in the woods but near the water with plenty of living space for the family. Was within a quick drive to many of the attractions for Door County.

Anniversary Get Away

We experienced a beautiful weekend in Door County for our anniversary. Golfing shopping dining just an all-around awesome weekend. We found the location of this place very close to everything and the fact that we were able to include our dog for the weekend. Made it extra special.

Cabin In The Woods

Very clean cabin in the woods. Close to the lake and on a very quiet little street. The actual road it's on is a bit off the beaten path, but that adds to the charm. It's a close drive to downtown Bailey's Harbor and Fish Creek. The bedrooms in the house are very small. Me and my partner shared the room with the queen bed and there wasn't enough room for our luggage (ended up using the living room and spare bedroom no one was using). If you have a full house of people, the space for travel items is going to be rough.

Convenient to Door County Parks

It was a very comfortable house for us and our dog, and conveniently located to hiking areas and wineries. We suggest that you bring your own drinking water or take advantage of the counter top water filter they provided. If the neighbors to the right of the property are permanent residents, you will not be able to enjoy a quiet evening outside as their dogs barked constantly. Hopefully, this was a one-off. If not for that, we would consider staying here again. The property manager was extremely fast to respond to any inquiries we had.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that the house was comfortable for you and your dog, and the location was convenient. We believe the neighboring dog was a one-off occurrence as we have not received similar feedback before. We hope you will consider staying with us again in the future.

Peaceful, beautiful and comfortable

My family, including a 7 year old and two dogs, really enjoyed our stay at North Bay Tranquility, the house is very pretty and comfortable, the beds were great and everyone slept well. It has everything you could need (full kitchen, tv and internet, beautiful yard with fire pit) and we felt right at home. Only issue was when we arrived I took the cover off the gas grill to check it out and it promptly collapsed. Notified management right away, but no one fixed or replaced it, just stuck it in the garage. So that was a minor disappointment since we had planned to grill dinners. Overall though we were extremely happy with the home and our stay. Would definitely stay again!

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Oct 2024
We greatly appreciate your review and are so happy you, your family and your dogs enjoyed your stay. We are so sorry that the grill was discovered to be broken upon your arrival and we could not replace immediately. Unfortunately prior guests don't always communicate issues to us so we do not have the opportunity to repair/replace. We hope you will consider returning!

Location to Sister Bay was great, maybe 10 minute drive. House is on quiet road so it’s good for walking dogs if you are traveling with your pups. The twin beds in 3rd bedroom & master are soooooo comfortable! We didn’t use middle bedroom.The 3 window air conditioners kept it cool even on warm days. We only cooked once, but kitchen had items we needed. Good water pressure in shower & bathroom has storage shelves, etc for toiletries.IF you are traveling with pets: the listing states the pet fee is charged at booking, I recommend confirming that it is charged at that time. I paid in full at time of booking, for 4 adults & 2 pets but pet fee wasn’t added & we had no knowledge of this until 4 days prior to our check in. At that point we could no longer cancel & book elsewhere, if we so chose. We always travel with our pets & have never had any issues before, hopefully this was computer glitch on their end & an isolated incident.
