About this property
Rustic, cozy log home vacation retreat near Sister Bay.
Welcome to Land’s End, our happy place nestled at the edge of the forest. The house is just north of Sister Bay on an inlet of Lake Michigan called Rowleys Bay. This unique setting allows for rest and relaxation and the only noise you hear may be from the laughter of friends and family playing games, grilling, kayaking on Rowleys Bay or the Mink River, biking or gazing at the Milky Way near the marina. We have had many wonderful guests over the past 40 years.
Our log home was built in 1984 with hand-hewn logs from the surrounding woods. As you enter the home with beams and walls covered in wood from an 1820's barn you begin to feel the stresses of everyday life melt away. The soaring 24 ft cathedral ceiling and grand stone fireplace welcome you into the family/dining area and the adjacent wall of windows looks out at the surrounding wilderness where deer, raccoons, squirrels and birds can be viewed from the comfort of the home. We have installed new ductless A/C in the main room on the first floor in 2022 for your comfort. New carpeting has been installed throughout the cabin in June 2024.
If you want a little more entertainment, Sister Bay is less than 10 minutes away where there is a selection of restaurants, bars, a beach, boat and water sport rentals and shops. Don’t forget to get breakfast at Al Johnson’s and see the goats on the roof or end the day with a scoop of ice cream from Door County Ice Cream Factory or Door County Creamery.
The house sleeps 8. It includes 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The master bedroom is on the main floor with a King bed. The bathroom on the main floor has a shower and jacuzzi tub. There are two bedrooms on the second floor; one with a Queen bed and the other with 2 Twin beds. The bathroom upstairs has a bathtub/shower combination. The upstairs loft overlooks the family room and has a view into the forest with a Queen sleeper sofa. The kitchen has typical appliances as well as a microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, toaster, blender, crockpot and all the utensils, cookery and plates/glassware you should need. The dining area has a table for 8 and 4 stools under the kitchen peninsula. The family room has a Smart TV with YouTubeTV and WIFI. Heating is electric so each room can be set individually. There is AC for the main area on the first floor and also have ceiling fans and extra fans in the closet. Outside is a patio deck, picnic table, a couple of chairs and a Weber charcoal grill. The town of Liberty Grove requires us to maintain a register of the names and addresses of all guests over the age of 6 which will be collected prior to your stay.

The home was clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Games and puzzles were available. Location was secluded and a little far from town, but beautiful.
We loved the location of the house and it felt like a safe area. The kitchen was well supplied. When we had questions, Lisa, the manager responded very quickly. Overall we were pleased.
Our stay at Lands End cabin exceeded our expectations! Rustic, cozy cabin vibes nestled in a quaint and very quiet corner of the woods. Lots of wildlife! Excellent location away from the busyness of nearby towns but convenient to get to them when needed/wanted. Very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Great fireplace! The host was very attentive and kind. Would definitely stay here again!
The place was so cozy and clean! Great instructions and communication from the owner. We loved how quiet and private the property was. We would definitely stay again!
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin! It was in a very quiet area and the cabin was very clean. Great communication with the owner as well. We will definitely be booking here again. Highly recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay at Lisa's vacation home near Rowley's Bay in Door County. Everything was as advertised. It was in a quiet, wooded location with a well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and a very rustic, cabin-like feel. Lisa was a great communicator and answered all my questions before we arrived. I would surely stay here again if we come back to the area.

Beautiful home, well-supplied and walkable to beach trails.
The property is as good as advertised! Being there in the winter made the fireplace especially nice to have, but we enjoyed everything about the place. Highly recommend it!
Six great girlfriends had a wonderful time in Door Co. Our house/cabin was so cozy and fit us perfect. It was so nice to come home to the quiet of the woods. Great place to stay!
There were six of us all over 60 and we had a wonderful stay. The house is rustic and woodsy and comfy and homey. All of the things you want for cozy stay. We would absolutely stay again if we came this way.
A perfect logwood cozy weekend getaway with family and friends. Lake nearby, serene space and clean and maintained house. Host is very nice and quick to respond to any queries. Will recomend this cabin for a peaceful stay.
We had such a great weekend in Rowley’s Bay. This cabin is clean, spacious, and in a perfect location. It is so quiet and peaceful, but a 10 minute drive from everything. Lisa was great! Would highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay, everything we needed was there! Loved waking up to the sounds of nature and being in the wooded area. Great walk to the water as well. Was convenient to all areas of Door County that we visited. Thank you Lisa for opening up your home to share, we hope to return soon!
Communication with the owner was exceptional! We loved the rustic vibe of the cabin and the location. We had three deer visit one morning. Short drive to surrounding communities great for coffee, restaurants, groceries and sight seeing!
Very quiet, lots of wildlife nearby. Very nice space with good beds and linens/towels. Well equipped kitchen. Easy access to all activities we wished to pursue in Door County.
Comfortable, rustic and nice location in door county. Being a contractor and having previous years of experience in cabinetry/fine woodworking, I really enjoyed all the wood in the cabin! Nicely done. Would definitely go back.
We had a great time at the property. The owner was very responsive. The house is 10 min away from Sister Bay and offers nice and quite location. Thank you for the wonderful holiday.
The home was perfect. It is in walking distance to the lake. Very peaceful in the woods. Away from all the traffic of Door County but yet in driving distance to everything. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen well-stocked. I would highly recommend this place to stay.
We really enjoyed our stay at this awesome cabin. The 1800s barn wood, beams and fireplace make this a unique and cozy place to relax after a day in the outdoors. Door County in the off season was peaceful. Very responsive and friendly host. Highly recommend.
