About this property

Family friendly lake front cottage just 15 minutes to EVERYTHING!

House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-8)
Located at the end of a private road in Southern Door County, this home offers the privacy, peace & tranquility that are the perfect alternative to todays hectic lifestyle. Our three bedroom, two bath private home nestled in the woods on the shore of Lake Michigan offers amazing views of the lake, sky & nature. Every window looks out to the water and/or woods.

Enjoy a cocktail at the fire pit on a moon & starlit evening over the lake. Fall asleep to the waves of Lake Michigan lapping on the shore. The early risers can enjoy the magnificent sunrises whether they are just turning over in bed or up making early morning coffee.

Pass your day relaxing on the screened porch, sleeping in the lakeside hammock with spectacular views of Lake Michigan.

Looking for more action? Door County has it all! Travel north up the road for hiking, boating, restaurants, golf, wineries, shopping, or famous Door County Fish Boils! And don't forget to visit some of the 5 fabulous state parks in Door County. Or head south a few miles to the Algoma marina for some of the best charter fishing Lake Michigan has to offer.

We know you also want the comforts of home - so that is where renting our private home (versus a rental cottage) really differentiates itself. Yes, the kitchen has it all - stove, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, disposal, pantry, island, skylight, pots, pans, utensils and bar glasses. It also has a table in a bay window with one of the best views of Lake Michigan. The master bedroom is on the main floor with a king-sized bed, TV and private entrance to the main floor bath, which has a whirlpool tub and separate shower. The two upstairs bedrooms are large and hold a king size bed and a queen size bed plus a crib. Each room is spacious and has plenty of room for additional air mattresses. The same is true for the lower level living space. The living room has a wood burning fireplace & TV. There is a finished lower level living space with TV, game tables and board games to enjoy day or night.

BBQ on the Weber gas grill then enjoy your meal either at the outdoor fire pit table, screened porch, or the beautiful dining room table. All with great views spanning Lake Michigan!

We promise you will be as relaxed or busy as you would like during your stay. You will never want to leave.

Please allow us to welcome you and your family to our little piece of paradise!

Great Getaway in a Beautiful Setting
This was our second stay in this home. You could not ask for a better environment, along with the wonderful responsiveness of the owners. Overall, it is clean and offers everything you would need for a relaxing getaway. The home is a short driving distance to the Door County area and many other fun places to visit. Thank you!

Great house - located out of the tourist areas.
The house was clean and well maintained. The location was nice and quiet but expect a 30 minute drive to the tourist areas. There is no way to swim at the house.

So much fun
We wanted to have a place on the water away from the hustle and bustle of Door County. This home was perfect. We had coffee on the deck each morning and several fires with s’mores in the evenings. It was a beautiful home with a beautiful view. We loved our time here. The host was responsive with questions we had and the check in and check out processes went really well. I would absolutely stay here again.

A truly lovely lakeside home!
We really enjoyed our stay at this house and in Door County! We had 5 adults and two kids ages 12 and 16. We loved having a fire, sitting by the water and listening to the waves! The kitchen is fully stocked and we were able to make several meals there using the gas grill. It was easy to take day trips into the cute towns and parks in Door County. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Connie was a great host and available to answer any questions!

Great private getaway
This was a beautiful home with everything you would need for a getaway, along the shores of Lake Michigan. It is located in a private neighborhood which was quiet and peaceful. We loved the screened-in porch and the outdoor patio with a firepit… great place to see the stars at night. Connie, the owner, was so responsive and pleasant to communicate with… thank you!

We are a family with two kids and large extended family. This is our 2nd home and we simply love Door County and everything it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this home instantly when we first saw it. We love the tranquility and the sweeping views of the lake from all areas of the home. And yet, we are just 15 minutes away to the beach, dining, recreation and more.
