The property was right on the bay with spectacular sunsets and a great view. The house itself could use some updating, but all in all it was a good choice for a little getaway.

We were very happy with the location and view from the property. The inside was updated and nice, but the outside could use a little cleaning. There were a lot of bugs so it made it uncomfortable for us.

Beautiful view and comfortable lodging

We absolutely loved our stay in Sturgeon Bay! The home is oriented in such a way that the beautiful floor to ceiling windows at the rear of the house, with a breathtaking view of the lake, are visible from everywhere. There are many comfortable places to sit and relax inside. Outside is great too, with a BBQ grill and fire pit, both of which we used and a porch with chairs to watch the sunset. They have everything you could need to make your stay fun and relaxing. We would definitely go back!

Great dog friendly spot

Great property nicely situated about 20 min from town. We were able to bring our dogs, which we loved. They enjoyed full access to the water. Upon arrival, we noticed the house hadn’t been fully cleaned. After contacting the host, it was rectified immediately. The host even checked in on us later to make sure we were happy. Besides that, I will say we tried to use the oven and it wasn’t getting hot enough so we had to switch to just using a pan. Overall great dog friendly place to stay!

Bravo!

We were simply looking for some much needed family time and we got so much more. We had no pressure and did as we pleased for three glorius days. We made memories, we enjoyed each others company and simply relaxed. I don't know the last time I just felt so peaceful. I thank you for that. I had the opportunity to just enjoy my family, to cook for them and just plain love them with no outside noise.

Cozy cabin on the water

The cabin was perfect for our weekend stay in Door County. The view of the bay out the windows was spectacular. We watched fish pop their head out the water, and the American White Pelicans hanging out on the water. We were far enough for the center of town to feel away from everything, yet close enough to hit some shops or get supplies we forgot.

Very nice place

It was a very nice home in a beautiful spot on the lake. Every thing you wanted to do was close by. It was everything you could want and had everything you could need to make this a great stay. I would recommend it to one and all. I will stay here next time I come and you should too. Really nice place in a beautiful spot.

Great location, Nice Property

We've been vacationing in Sturgeon Bay for many years. Sturgeon Bay is a nice location for day trips up the DC peninsula. And, this is a great place to stay! It's right on the water, and has a big yard. It has a great view of sunsets on Lake Michigan. We, and our puppies, played in the water on the rocky beach. The kitchen is well stocked. It has a big dining table for games and puzzles. The neighbors are warm and friendly. We loved it, and will be back.

Great cottage for our family with young kids. We spent new years weekend there. The full kitchen including dishwasher was awesome so we could hunker down and enjoy being away. WiFi worked great - we had access to all our streaming services. Grocery and dining near by but somewhat limited because of the season - no big deal though. We cooked at the cottage. The view of the bay was amazing. Greg is super nice and always available. We will be booking this property again.

Fire on the Bay

Our stay on the property was lovely for the most part. It was important we were able to bring our pooch. The fire pit right over the water was magical. Just warm enough to hang out into the night. The yard, while not fenced, was large enough to set up a tether so our boy could roam a bit but stay safe. We showed up right after a Bay Fly hatch, which wasn't entirely pleasant. But they don't bite & were more a nuicance than a danger. and our

Overpriced for the quality of home. Bed was comfy. Needs (in our opinion) some updating and cosmetic improvements. Verbo charges way to much in fees.
