About the host

Hosted by Becca

Host profile image
Our family loves the beautiful Wisconsin parks & often camped in Door County as our kids grew. We also love vintage cottage charm but wanted to provide conveniences of modern life with the feel of relaxing surroundings. We have found great refreshment in the summer swimming & many activities in each surrounding communities & we've also found refueling of our souls in the snowfall with a fire going & good books to read. Our hope is that this spot can provide others with the gift of togetherness, memories, adventures & blessings so hearts return home full.

Why they chose this property

We love the hustle of all the shops & artists on the Bay side of Door County but, are most refreshed by the 'quiet side' on Lake Michigan--known for the quiet water activity that we enjoy most--kayaking, swimming, paddleboarding & reading by the waterside.

So to be on Lake Michigan is a stunning gift! One we want to share! The location is optimal for staying in and enjoying activities & togetherness but, also close to beautiful parks, great restaurants, horse back riding & lighthouse exploring! We consider ourselves very blessed to be in our beautiful spot & share it with joy!
