About the host
Hosted by Caley Swanson
We live in Madison, WI and have two kids and our mini golden-doodle, Luna. Caley is an interior designer. Mark works in IT and can be found on the golf course when the snow melts!
Why they chose this property
We grew up going to Door County with our families. Now with two young boys of our own, we want to create those memories for our family (including our beloved dog) and others to enjoy. We loved the fact that this lot was quiet and wooded, and still only a short walk to downtown Sister Bay.
What makes this property unique
Our property is close to downtown while being really private as it is located in a cul-de-sac
