Family-Friendly, Historic, Renovated Sister Bay Farmhouse + Suite w/ Crib + Toys

Welcome to Oak & Orchard House, a family-friendly, renovated 1923 farmhouse on the outskirts of Sister Bay. This expanded listing includes both the main home and an attached private suite, allowing your group of 8 to spread out comfortably.

Designed for easy travel with kids, we provide a crib, high chair, toys, and a playset so you can pack lighter. The Orchard Suite offers a separate space with a king bed and fireplace—ideal for grandparents or multiple families traveling together.

We believe a vacation rental is more than just a place to sleep—it is the setting for the moments you’ll carry with you long after you leave. Part of An Anthology of Stays, this renovated 1923 farmhouse honors the heritage of Door County vacationing by providing a space designed for connection. Whether you are prepping a meal around the reclaimed wood kitchen island or sharing stories in the living room, we provide the backdrop so you can focus on creating the stories you’ll recall for years to come.

Every detail is curated to help you slow down and lean into the beauty and history of the peninsula: getting lost in a puzzle on a rainy afternoon, challenging the kids to a board game, or cozying up in the window seat with a good book. From enjoying a home-cooked meal around the dinner table, to watching the sunset through the trees, this is your place to reconnect with the people who matter most and add a beautiful new chapter to your family’s history.

The Orchard Suite Experience
This expanded listing includes the Orchard Suite, a private, self-contained retreat attached to the rear of the home. The suite features a spacious bedroom with a queen bed, an ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, and a dedicated living area with a wood-burning fireplace and views of the forest, and separate entrance. It allows for a seamless blend of communal time in the main house and privacy—perfect for grandparents, a second family, or a couple looking for their own space.

While this listing for a larger group is new, we’ve hosted in this home for years. We encourage you to check out our existing listing for this property (without the suite) where over 35 10/10 reviews reflect the consistent care and hospitality we provide: https://www.vrbo.com/3083027.
