Super cute spot with plenty of space!

This was the perfect spot for a gathering of friends! Plenty of beds available, so everyone had their own space. It was pretty rainy during our stay, but we had a ton of fun staying in and enjoying the board games provided. Great location, within walking distance of a grocery store and a diner! We would definitely stay here again.

Nice getaway

Very nice home in a great location. Surprisingly quiet for being so close to the center of Sturgeon Bay! This would be a really great place for a larger group. Communication with property manager lagged a bit, but the manger was very helpful when the reply came. Overall no serious problems, and location is excellent. A nice accommodation!

Perfect stay in Sturgeon Bay

We had the most lovely stay in Sturgeon Bay this week, and wishing we were still there. Compass Cove was fully stocked for our family of 5 with inside and outside games and books. It was the perfect spot for exploring Door County - just blocks from restaurants and galleries in Sturgeon Bay and in good range to hikes, beaches and towns in Northern Door CO. We had the best time and can't wait to be back. (One note for light sensitive sleepers - the primary bedroom has a high window without a curtain, so plan accordingly. I travel with a sleep mask so it wasn't a problem but flagging for those who might need similar!)

Nice Place in a Quiet Location

We enjoyed a long weekend with extended family at this awesome home. We took several walks through the neighborhood and to the nearby marina. Breakfast at the nearby cafe was very good, but it was very busy Sunday morning. We walked down third street and enjoyed several shops and stores and the farmers market on Saturday. The place was very clean. The pictures on the listing are accurate. We are very glad we stayed in Sturgeon Bay instead of one of the smaller towns to the north. Much more to do and see nearby. We took a nice day trip north on Saturday to visit some of the more touristy places. Great place!

Fall in Door County

This is a lovely home -- well appointed kitchen, comfy beds, spacious common rooms. [The master bedroom is a bit small for the king sized bed, so it may not work well for people with mobility issues.] It is very comfortable, and we appreciated being able to bring our pup with us. Location is excellent. Clean as a whistle. Great kitchen with thoughtful touches. The one thing that was slightly lacking was communication with the manager, but we received the necessary information in plenty of time and were able to arrange arrival / departure times. Overall -- Super location, very quiet, very clean, very comfortable and a great place for a getaway.

Comfortable and convenient

We were very comfortable in this house. Enjoyable main rooms with plenty of room for many people. Bedrooms are small, so if you are having 8 people sleep there, you will have to move the two beds to other rooms. The hostess is very nice and helpful.

My bachelorette weekend trip was amazing and I was so grateful to be able to stay in this cute house that slept the whole party. The listing is accurate and the hosts were accommodating when I asked for another rollaway bed as a back up. There is an organic grocery store, parks, the whole downtown area super close by and we were fortunate that a farmers market was happening within three blocks of the property as well! The beds were comfortable and the showeramenities were perfect for our 6 person group. The check out instructions were clear and reasonable. First time booking with VRBO and this property was a great first impression!

Quaint and adorable little coastal town

The property was adorable. Quirky and charming. Very clean and fairly well appointed. The coffee machine would be such an easy thing to upgrade. It’s old and beat up and took an hour to make a cup a coffee. Location was perfect. Loved being able to walk over to the town everyday. Super easy driving to all the neighboring towns. Definitely fell in love with sturgeon bay and would stay at this home again for sure! Thank you for a great stay!

We highly recommend Compass Cove. Located close to downtown Sturgeon Bay with a perfect little breakfast place, not even a block away. The home was beautifully decorated with all the amenities we needed. The King size bed was very comfortable as well as the furniture. Perfect place for your Door County get away!

Great Stay; Better Location

Our stay was wonderful. The house was great. The living space was enough for our family of 6. Super cute. Loved the extra dining room space. If I had to give some constructive feedback, there were a lot of ants throughout the house and the space for storing clothes was minimal which I understood when I saw the space on the why. Maybe speak to that more in the listing. Overall, we would stay again for sure.

Early Spring Family Vacation

We really enjoyed our time in Sturgeon Bay. This property was conveniently located which allowed us to walk to restaurants, breweries, antique/retail stores, and the water. It was great that our pets were able to join us too. The neighborhood is perfect for taking them on walks. The amenities were great, beds were comfortable, and the dining room table was perfect for playing board games. The interior of the home was clean except for the side table in the dining room. Being an older home, we found ourselves often trying to think about how the house use to look and what it was used for prior to becoming a home. It would be great to have some history about the property at the home for guests to read. 😊 Being older, the house is a little drafty, but the furnace was able to keep the place warm. The only concern I had was that the soap dispensers were refilled with a product that was not what was on the label of the containers. I have very sensitive skin to the product that was used to refill them. I would suggest assuring that the product in the containers match the product container label for the diaper in the bathroom and kitchen. A few other suggestions we have would be to install baseboards/kick-plate under the kitchen sink; install light in the back entry way of the house; install an outside light on the back of the house. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your property. We had an awesome time and would definitely stay here again. 😊

Great time!

We had a great time and the place was so cute and clean. It was close to downtown which was nice. It was in a residential neighborhood, not touristy area. The only draw back was no hot water, which made showering not possible. We did not complain so maybe it could have been fixed if we would have said something. Otherwise, it was a great place and would for sure return.
