Relaxing, beautiful views right in the water. Loved the sound of the waves lapping on the shore, watching the many birds diving in the water for breakfast in the AM, and the proximity to downtown while feeling we were on our own little island. Brian, the host, was very helpful both while we planned our trip and while we were there. We had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the Boat House and especially liked the panoramic view, the comfortable (and whimsical!) decor, and its location to everything.Brian, the owner, had great suggestions for dining and local attractions and was in frequent and clear communication with us from booking to departure. We are already planning a return visit!

Honeymoon in Door County

We had a great time staying at the boathouse. Check in was easy and this cute spot on the water was the perfect size for us. The host was great and had plenty of recommendations for things to do locally. He also included a little honeymoon gift for us which was very nice. Would recommend to other guests

Perfect Getaway by the Water

The pictures do not do it justice. The view is outstanding and the sound of the water will lull you to sleep. The boat house is cozy but was perfect for me and my husband. Very close to all of the amenities of Sturgeon Bay and a short drive from the natural attractions of Door County. My husband and I are both in grad school and so had to do homework for part of the trip, and the WiFi worked great, even outside by the fire pit. Lots of great birding opportunities, we saw pelicans and loons, bring your binoculars! All in all the perfect little getaway for us.
