Goats, disc golf, and spooky dog pics
We absolutely loved visiting and enjoying the fall colors. Our dogs had so much fun playing in the leaves and just enjoying the cool weather. Sister bay was fun, but we really enjoyed coming back to our own private fire and quiet area! Already planning a trip next year

Home away from home
The inside of the house was just like home. We were so pleased with the rooms & area around us. We visited the countryside during the day & had nice quiet evenings at the cottage. We would love to visit the cottage again. Thank you

Cozy and cute!
My family of 4, my husband and (2) 18 yr. old's plus our dog stayed here over the Christmas holiday. We celebrated Christmas with extended family who had their own places in Gills Rock/Ellison Bay. Doc's Hide way was the perfect spot to come back to and hang out. We used the kitchen quite a bit. There was amble room to roll out homemade noodles. It was really cold outside, but we stayed warm and cozy and the beds were really comfortable. We loved reading about the history of the cabin. Thanks for providing that information! We would definitely stay here again!

Quiet Peaceful Log Cabin
Staying at this beautiful restored log cabin was quiet and peaceful. The lawn was large enough to play ball with my yellow lab and the location is on a quiet street. My stay was peaceful and perfect for a three night stay.

Deer hunting stay
I have stayed here before for the same purpose, harvested a buck once. Like the pellet stove, and the new heating system. I stayed upstairs and the heat was slow to rise, i would recommend turning power to the baseboard heater upstairs. I love the location and the overall accommodation, i have been coming to the door since 1968 as a young lad, my father was a scuba diver on the wrecks, eventually buying a home on port a moor drive.

Charming Cottage
This charming cottage is in a great location in Gills Rock and has everything you need. We enjoyed the pellet stove and walks along the road where you can see views of the lake. It's a peaceful and happy place. Our dog had a great time, too.

Fall Stay
We liked the property and northern location in door county. The pellet stove heated the house quickly in the evening. The kitchen is large and well organized. The rustic look of the cabin was good to experience..
