Nice clean comfortable cottage with a wonderful view. It just needs a trimming of the tree branches in the driveway and cut down the big weeds in the back by the deck

The cabin was nice but much smaller than we expected. There wasn’t an indoor dining area, which wasn’t mentioned in the listing. The beds were probably the most uncomfortable beds we’ve encountered while at a VRBO. Because of the tight living area, no indoor dining area (which was challenging during the rain while we were there), and the uncomfortable beds, we chose to cut our stay short and leave a day early.

What a view

Our cottage provided a breathtaking view of Green Bay and even included the sound of waves to lull us to sleep. Fall colors were at their peak and we loved the forest around the cottage.

Perfect location for a couples weekend away

Loved this property! From the dog-friendliness, to the bike access, and of course, sunsets over the lake. I definitely recommend for a weekend retreat of rest and relaxation. While, as noted, there is no WiFi, there is a smart tv with streaming available for entertainment. The location is just a short drive to anything you would want to see in Door county.

Beautiful view

Nice quiet location. Not too far of a drive from all door county towns. Especially liked that we had wifi service. Nice new tv. Galley kitchen and small bathroom but much nicer than a motel and the water front view and fire ring is the main attraction.

Birthday weekend!

We had a wonderful stay! However, I don’t think the grass has been mowed for 3 or 4 weeks and tree limbs hang way down touching car as you come in driveway.

One Year Anniversary!

We had a great time for our anniversary with the fireplace, lapping waves, and fresh air. The cabin was cozy, had plenty of room, and the amenities you need. We would definitely go again. It was a wonderful space.

Beautiful site right on the Bay!

Nice small yard with fire pit right on the bay! Beautiful sunsets and good location! Beautiful state and county parks in the area! I imagine it’s a lot more populated in warmer months but we loved the peace and quiet! Cabin is small and cozy and very clean! It had everything we needed!

Cozy Cottage

Cozy cottage, perfect for a short friends getaway. The water is just a few feet away, and the sound of the waves lulled us to sleep at night. Awesome sunsets. Cottage is small but clean and well stocked, even with extras like hand sanitizer, hand soap, etc. and plenty of extra towels and toiletries. Enjoyed our short time here!!

Just what we needed

This little cottage was perfect for our stay. A place to eat and sleep with the bare necessities. The place was right on the bay so you could look out the back door and watch the water hit the rocks. The backyard is perfect to sit and hang out. It stormed a bit while we were there but the little place held up fine and we hunkered down safe and sound.

Cozy cottage - small but mighty

This cottage is cozy but has everything you need. It's small, but you won't miss the space. With expansive views of the bay and only steps to the water/ice, you will have a big experience regardless. We enjoyed our winter excursions - it's a short drive to a lot of what's going on in Door County.

Breathtaking views

This was such a cute little cottage. Perfect for our group of 4. Beds were comfortable. Everything was visually pleasing. Well stocked. Owner took the time to fill planters with spring flowers. Area was quiet and peaceful . Wasn’t too far from the town where there were lots of cute little shops and bars. And the sunset views were stunning!! Didn’t like how far out of the way we had to drive to check in but that was a minor detail. Would definitely stay again.

Nostalgic Getaway

As a kid we came up to Door County every summer and stayed in a family owned cottage in Baileys Harbor. The location and view of this cottage were spectacular but it is very small. If it rains and you’re stuck inside like I was, it can be quite uncomfortable. The furniture is small and uncomfortable as well. Ideally when you come to DC you’re out and about most of the time. In that case this is a perfect place to rest and relax between “outings.”

Charming cottage

Charming cottage on the shore of Green Bay. Very clean. Had all we needed. We enjoyed the weekend. I would have made clear that there was no inside table to eat at. Table and chairs on the deck, but this time of year is usually not warm enough. Cute place though!
