We had a great experience at KipDee cottage! The house has everything you need, including a full kitchen and a ping pong table.We brought a group of 6 adults and had enough room for everyone. You can definitely fit more people in the house, but it might be tough to gather around a table all together. There are lots of seating and lounging options all around the house for group of 2-4.We would definitely stay again! Thanks for a great experience.

A place for memories!

We stayed here for a second time. It is a very pleasant home-away-from home place to stay. We were able to enjoy many activities in Door County, including ice cream, the beach and Wild Tomato pizza in Sister Bay.

5 night Family Getaway

This place was perfect for our group of 7! 2 adults and kids ranging from 15-20. The loft above the garage was perfect for all of the kids to stay. Both the house and the loft were clean, fully stocked and decorated so cute! We used the bikes, kayaks and firepit that were provided. There’s a lovely lookout point and ice cream shop just steps from the house and downtown Sister Bay is just a few minute drive. We loved just about everything from our stay and will likely be booking here again!

Great spot for a family vacation. The loft above the garage is great if extra room is needed. We enjoyed being close to Door County Ice Cream Factory and were able to take advantage of the shuttle from the ice cream shop to downtown Sister Bay.

The location was great - quick bike ride to the beach, eating & shopping. The property was laid out well and felt secluded. We loved being able to walk down the street to get ice cream and watch the sun set.

The house was absolutely perfect for our family get together. The bonus loft space was perfect for my teenage nephews and nieces to all stay in together. We are looking forward to our next visit to Door County and staying in this beautiful home.

Charming house, good for kids

Beautiful, charming property. It was very clean. We loved the front porch. It's about a mile from downtown Sister Bay. We did not realize how far the garage loft was from the rest of the house when we booked, which was awkward for bathroom/shower use. I recommend this property for a single family due to the garage situation and size of tables for dining together. Grill is a blackstone if you are planning a cookout.

Amazing stay!

This is a beautiful property with an amazing location in Sister Bay. 3 minute drive to the downtown area. We loved the decor, sitting on the porch and in the sunroom with morning coffee, and getting ice cream down the street. The owners were very easy to communicate with and the check in process was very easy. I would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic house and location!

This is such a charming, cozy cottage. We were very pleased with all of the amenities, charm, and location. It was lovely to see the photos on the wall and read stories about the former owners. Can't wait to try this home again in the summer. Location was perfect and really gave you the Door County vibe. Don't forget to check out the holiday store across the street!

We LOVED the location of this property and all the amenities. It's very doable to have two families stay on property with the loft above the garage. The house is styled beautifully, very warm and cozy which just adds to the appeal. We will definitely be repeat customers! Thank you Jon and Lucy!
