We came for a peaceful quiet week and natural beauty. And we got it. Good hikes, good lake viewing.

This cabin is classic and full of good vibes. Lots of windows, right on the shore, tucked into a quiet spot in the woods. It's basic and has everything you need.

Perfect retreat

Peaceful, rustic and serene. Right on the lake. We fell asleep to the waves and woke to beautiful sunrises. 5 miles to anything one needs and great hiking on and near the lake. Clean, well equipped, and comfy.

Great location and set-up!

We loved the cottage on the beach. It was just minutes from Sturgeon Bay, but had a very private and "out in the woods" feel to it. The only part that would have made our stay better was if the mid-October weather would have cooperated better with us :)

Sweet little cottage in a beautiful and quiet location

We head to door county every October for our anniversary and wanted to experience the Lake Michigan side of the peninsula this time. This sweet little cottage is set privately off the beaten path right on Lake Michigan. We listened to waves all night and enjoyed a cozy fire while we played cards. This little slice of heaven was perfectly sized for our 4 person family. Our girls loved playing in the back bedroom. We watched amazing sunrises every morning from the large living room windows. Thanks to the owners for the kind note and little extras to make our anniversary stay special. We would love to come back!

Sweet retreat!

This was our first visit to Door County and this cottage was the perfect spot. The place is very cozy and so clean! We made good use of the lovely fireplace as we had some cloudy/rainy days and it was so relaxing. Our meals in were simple, but the kitchen is well equipped for anyone wanting to cook for a family. The location is nice in that you are close to Sturgeon Bay for supplies and restaurants but in a few minutes on your own secluded shoreline! There was even a movie theater and bowling alley not too far from the cabin for something to do on those rainy days. The hosts Tom and Keli were very gracious. Thanks for sharing your lovely place!

Awesome Cabin.AwesomeLocation

Excellent little cabin literally right on the shores of Lake Michigan!! I was here in October and loved it. I can imagine how wonderful it would be in the summertime with the windows open hearing the waves crashing all night!! Cabin was well stocked with just about everything you need and then some. Sleeps 4 people. Truly a gem!! Highly recommended if you can book it. Will try to come back again for sure! -Allen

Relaxing and quaint

We had an amazing stay in Door County! The Arrowhead was cozy and the perfect place to come “home” to in the evening. Keli and Tom were very accommodating and easy to get ahold of when needed. They went above and beyond for our needs. The sound of the waves lapping on the shore and the crackling, warm fire made for a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. We hope to come back with our kids someday!

Quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle

We enjoyed our weekend away at this home. The backyard views are amazing and the little screened sunporch was fantastic to enjoy with our morning coffee. Having the fireplace available was very nice for the cooler evening hours.

We want to live here!

Loved this place and if we could, we'd make it our home, smile! Lovely accommodations, absolutely lovely location and right on the water. It was a respite from a variety of life challenges and the cottage was tremendous. Fireplace, pounding waves outside the door and convenient location to so many great opportunities for fun, eating and recreation.

Seclusion on the water

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place. There are enough trees on either side of the cabin that you don't really notice the houses on either side, and you can't get any closer to Lake Michigan. It has a warm cabin feel, and the fireplace works without smoking. I was surprised how nicely stocked the kitchen was. Door County is such a small area, that driving over to the hustle and bustle of the Green Bay side wasn't a big deal. Taking the back roads avoids the traffic of Rte. 42. After long days of interacting with all of the other tourists, it was so nice to come back to the uncrowded cabin and beach. If we ever get back, this is where we will stay!

Great location! Beautiful sunrises!

The location of the cabin is amazing. We found the cabin a bit small for 4 adults and 2 children. We visited in late September so temperatures were a bit chilly at night. The back bedroom was pretty cold even with the heat on. The owners, Keli and Tom, were very friendly. Keli was extremely responsive to all of my questions. We especially enjoyed having family dinners on the sun porch.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Keli Groenfeldt, Owner

Host profile image
Arrowhead was constructed by the owner's father the year Tom was born and has remained a cherished member of the family. Tom and Keli live next door to Arrowhead on the north side and are always available for any of your needs.

Why they chose this property

The miles of beautiful sand beach, as well as a walking trail through the woods taking you over Lily Bay creek on a wooden bridge, gives you the best of all worlds. Arrowhead is located in the Onanguisse estate community that has been the vacation spot for some of our wonderful guests going into (as of 2021) the 5th generation!

What makes this property unique

Bright and cheery log cabin with Lake Michigan at your door. Enjoy the hummingbirds all summer and the beautiful sand beach throughout the seasons. Relax in the hammock with your favorite beverage.

Both bedrooms have a skylight to watch the stars as you fall asleep to the sound of the waves.

A beautiful wood burning fireplace will ensure s'mores even if it is raining out!
