Welcome to Chicory Lake House - a waterfront family escape in the heart of Door County!
Our fully remodeled Kangaroo Lakefront vacation home is adjacent to the historic Kangaroo Lake causeway. Nestled among the reeds and mature trees on Kangaroo Lake's shoreline and surrounded by calming waters and gorgeous lake views, Chicory Lake House is the perfect Door County retreat. Wake up to direct views of the lake and spend evenings cozying up to a roaring lakeside bonfire. Relax on our lakeside deck and patio while watching Mergansers swim near our shore. Toss in a line to fish from the pier, or explore the lake on the provided kayaks and paddle boards. Walk across the road to enjoy a local favorite - Coyote Roadhouse, or take the short drive to all the towns that make Door County a world-class vacation destination. With all three bedrooms on one level, a gas fireplace, a large yard for outdoor games, and a game room complete with bumper pool and shuffleboard, Chicory Lake House is the perfect place to make memories for all ages and seasons.
★OUR CLEANING PROTOCOLS SET US APART★
Our family stays in multiple vacation rentals a year, and we know firsthand how the cleanliness of a rental can make or break your vacation. Unlike most vacation rentals, at Chicory Lake House, we wash/change out all duvet covers, living room throw blankets, and living room throw pillow covers between every guest, in addition to all the typical bed sheets and pillowcases. We take cleaning very seriously, and we don't cut corners. Our cleaning process is extremely extensive because we know that your relaxation and enjoyment depend on it. Our home is family-managed and cared for because we believe you deserve the highest level of guest experience, cleanliness, and peace of mind during your vacation.
