"Birch Retreat" - cuteness and elegance combined!

"Birch" is a private retreat, part of a lovely cottage hidden behind an ornate garden gate; It is a cozy and comfortable private apartment for 2-4 guests comprising of two large and well-appointed rooms with modern touches within a ridiculously charming Door County setting! The "Green Gables" the property in which it is set, is a picturesque spot in the north part of Ephraim, with its own beautiful award-winning gardens, and is within easy walking distance to galleries, shops, mini-golf, breakfast and pizza, or a short drive from Ephraim village and the water. "Birch" gets lots of natural light from a large picture window at the front and from a sliding patio door at the back, which opens onto a small garden area with summery flowers. There's plenty of more open green space outdoors and around the Green Gables property. One large room has an elegant King bed, while the living room has a true Queen sofa-bed. The living room has a large and attractive library of books plus a 49" TV (with cable, Netflix, and Amazon Prime). All the bedding is non-allergenic. There is a very spacious walk-in shower enclosure within an ensuite bathroom. The apartment also is equipped with modest kitchenette facilities consisting of a microwave, fridge, toaster, coffeemaker and simple tableware/utensils. A contemporary dining table and four chairs completes the apartment, a lovely place to unwind and from which to explore Door County. In response to COVID-19, cleaning and sanitizing will be thoroughly undertaken, and guests are asked and to be ready to put on masks just when entering and exiting the building. Thank you!

If this unit is rented, please consider the neighboring (and again, private) larger unit, VRBO #1658362. For larger parties, booking both units at once provides for an amazing family experience.

As of Spring 2022, GREEN GABLES now has TWO OTHER great vacation rentals set within the same gorgeous acre and a half of lush gardens! Please visit the other two listings...

Brand new VRBO listing 2724012 is a spacious gorgeous home with full kitchen for 2-4, and VRBO listing 2798225 is a stunning romantic lodge-style retreat that is truly special. Ideal for a couple, though there's also a sofa bed too. Please do check them out! Green Gables is GROWING (both in the garden, and in great places to stay....!)

Girls Weekend

Spent the weekend in Door County with a friend. The communication with Colin prior to arrival was excellent along with maps and directions. The place was very clean and decorated super cute. Plenty of space for the 2 of us. Shame on me for not realizing the unit doesn’t have a kitchen but enough to get by for a few days. My only suggestions are a couple wine glasses and a fridge with a separate freezer compartment for ice. We had to buy ice for our happy hour cocktails. Ephraim is centrally located to many of the other towns and a short ride to Sister Bay.

Worked for us!

My spouse and I stayed 1 week during July. Host, Colin, is delightful and very responsive. The Birch unit is wonderfully located and is spacious with a comfortable bed, plenty of hot water in the shower, lots of storage space, reliable wifi, a mini-fridge, microwave & Keurig coffee maker. The living area has a large TV with Netflix & HULU available. We found it a little odd that the eating table & chairs was next to the bed and that we had to wash dishes in the bathroom sink, but it was workable. There is an upstairs unit that we were unaware of, and they have control of the thermostat. However, we could make some heat/AC adjustments to offset the upstairs settings. Unfortunately, as 'city kids' we like to enjoy the cool, quiet Door County nights but were unable to keep our patio door open because a very loud AC condenser unit was right outside. Overall, it worked for us and we would book this property again.

Nice, comfortable property but stay was diminished by water condensation on living room window, limited view and musty odor in both rooms -won’t stay again and would avoid if you have mold allergies

Beauty and Bliss

My husband and I stayed at The Birch in Ephriam. The setting was so beautiful with lovely gardens welcoming the guests through the gates/arbor covered with lush, green Virginia Creeper vines (which turn a brilliant red in fall. Easy access to both the rental and WiFi. A binder, provided by the host, contains everything you need to know about this lovely space. The rooms are large and impeccably clean.

The Birches is spacious, comfortable, and well-decorated. There is nothing cheap about anything, and the owner is very available and helpful. I would have given this 5 stars, but it is a somewhat awkward arrangement. Although there are dishes, microwave, and a small fridge, there is no kitchenette. Dishes have to be washed in the small bathrooom sink, and there's no place to put them.

Romantic Getaway

My wife and I celebrated a month being married at the Birch Retreat and it was perfect for us. We had planned all our meals to be eaten out, which worked because the Birch does not have a kitchen, but does have a small fridge/microwave/silverware/plates etc. We were happy to have found a place close to many shops and restaurants without the crowd. The shared gardens were beautiful, we enjoyed drinks outback amongst the flowers, which felt like our own private sanctuary. Colin, the host, was pleasant and welcoming!

Comfy Cozy

Our cottage was amazing. After a long work conference, we escaped to Door County for an overnight. The room was cozy and so very inviting. The landscaping and gardens were absolutely beautiful. Very clean and nicely decorated. Be sure to read the newspaper article in the back of the Birch binder in the room. The story of Colin the owner is absolutely fascinating! We will definitely be back! Thank you!!

Once again, a wonderful stay in Birch at Green Gables

We stayed here a month ago and liked it so much, we had to return. This is an updated, clean, well-appointed, and centrally located property that is ideal for visiting Door County. The gardens are especially beautiful and peaceful. The owner is pleasant, reliable, and easy to communicate with. We would defintiely stay here again when we return to Door County.

Peaceful Gardens

If your looking for a place to rejuvenate yourself amidst life's peaceful and quite amazing gardens Green Gables of Door County is it. Convenient to outdoor hiking or biking, near restaurants, shopping and strolls in nearby quaint - yet you may want to immerse yourself in the "out the back door" relaxation of the "peaceful gardens". Quite and rather nice indeed!

Terrific place-tasteful, spacious and perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay at Birch. The beds are comfortable. Having two rooms made it easy to stretch out and relax. The gardens are a lovely place to getaway and enjoy. The owner is very approachable and easy to communicate with. The rooms are well-appointed, updated, and quiet. The location is a good jumping off point for Door County--restaurants, scenery, and great bike riding are all nearby. We hope to be back soon and often. Thank you, Colin.

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Colin Welford

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
I am a musician - an orchestra conductor of ballet and Broadway musicals, a pianist and composer - originally from Manchester, England. I first landed in the U.S. (more than a few years ago!) as a grad student in Miami. Since then, music-making has led me to visit (or live in) all sorts of places on five different continents: From Shreveport to Budapest, The Philippines to Swaziland. Of course, along the way I've enjoyed, encountered, or endured hospitality of all styles: a room-for-rent in a stranger's house (100% language barrier included), corporate apartments, a corrugated-tin shack in the jungle, hotels ranging from 5 to 0 stars, cruise-ships, dive-boats and leaky barges, private island mega-mansions, African desert tents - and more lately, a very high floor in a glass and steel skyscraper! I had been working in vibrant Chicago where I was the Music Director of "Hamilton" for almost three years. At the same time I frequently found myself heading North to Door County, WI - a very special and different place, with all the 'small-town' charm and ways of a bygone era; whether during its pristine white winters, fresh springtime greens, its exciting summer buzz, or the stupendous fall colors.

I like meeting people of all ages and from different places and walks of life, and am interested in art, architecture and history, while being ever on the lookout for completely new experiences. I enjoy scuba-diving (I’m a licensed PADI Assistant Instructor - although I’m probably a bit rusty), longer-than-planned hikes, creating music & lyrics and outrageously improbable plot-lines for new comedic musicals, escape rooms, chess, puzzles, campfires (but NOT at Green Gables!), playing games on my iPhone that keep me up all night, foreign films, LEGO, and reading.
