About the Owners:
I have been coming to Door County as long as I can remember. My family has history in the Door County area dating back to the 1850's being some of the original settlers in the area and historic buildings that have been preserved to share this history. Over the years, I shared Door County with my wife and children to continue the tradition and enjoy all the area has to offer. We are a military family and decided to build a place we could consider "home" after all of our moves across the United States. Door County was the perfect location to create our retirement home and be able to share it with others that could enjoy it as much as we do. Please come and relax in our home and enjoy the solitude and all the area has to offer! We are always looking to serve you and welcome any feedback to make your experience more enjoyable and hope you return to make memories here with your friends and family year after year!
Kristofer and Amanda

Fun Stay

Everything was great for the most part. Beautiful home, location was prime, the only thing i would of like to seen better is the large stairs and ramp going up to the home on each side are not friendly to those with physical disabilities. We made a system to help that individual, but was difficult on them. Other than that, great place.

Wonderful place in Door County!

Our party of four adults loved this rental! Very clean, new super comfortable beds, and close to surrounding towns. Within 15 minutes there were plenty of restaurants, parks and shops to explore. We would definitely rent this one again and so would our friends who accompanied us! Come and enjoy Door County here!

Loved the location (spotted momma and baby deer every time we went to the patio deck). Loved the newness of everything! The rock stairs were challenging for my parents to climb. I thought they would be able to access on the main level without climbing the stairs. I messaged about an issue with king bedroom bedding and have not heard back from them after two attempts.

Excellent Vacation spot

Great vacation spot! The location is outstanding being just minutes away from everything including Peninsula State Park. My wife and I stayed with two other couples and the layout worked perfectly. We had our own bedrooms and also plenty of communal space to plan our day out and converse. Unfortunately the weather didn’t let us use the fire area as we had anticipated, but the space looked awesome. We look forward to staying again when the opportunity arises.

Loved the property overall. I don’t remember being warned about the steps which are pretty bad. There is however a path to the back door. Loved the fire pit.

Interior spacious and well appointed. Very nice covered deck. Large fire pit area…becoming weedy however. Close to Fish Creek yet quiet, wooded and nice to escape to after the busy downtown area. Note there are cameras facing the entrance and parking area (understandable) however another appears to watch the fire pit area. Holiday weekend was very expensive and unfortunately not worth the price per night.

Could not ask for more

What a wonderful property! It was so nice to be away from the ‘hustle and bustle’ of the main drag, and to have such nice surroundings. The hosts have thought of everything. The property was everything you’d expect from new construction. From the fire pit and chairs around it, to a very well-appointed kitchen, to very comfortable beds and pillows, this property has all the comforts of home, and then some. It exceeded our expections.

New property

Great location in a quiet area under a mile from Peninsula State Park. This is my second time this year at this location. Owners have made some changes since that really improved our stay. Overall it is a new property, clean, not luxurious but very nice. Private area downstairs almost like a kid/teen apartment with its own bathroom was perfect for my son. Only complaint would be the cooking pans were scratched up Teflon. And check in is on a timer so if you show up at 3:45 you have to stand outside till exactly 4 to check in. It does say you can check in early for a fee…

Great Experience

We did a little getaway to Fish Creek that was booked super last minute. The location was great! Very secluded with beautiful wildlife (saw dozens of deer!) and large fire pit. The house was newly updated with three bathrooms and very comfy beds. We will definitely be back. Overall great stay!

Location yes

We liked it a lot, but all agree it was the least stocked of any rental we had used before. Perhaps because it is so new or someone took all the supplies. Not even tin foil or ziplocs or basic cooking supplies. At least an oil or pepper. There was a small shaker of salt. Games were meh; old rummage perhaps. Puzzles too large and not complete. Also, would probably benefit from a dehumidifier in the lower level. No beach towels. Nice place, but really lacking in the usual items we use in rentals. I did leave some storage containers to help the next folk. The paper towels were horrible quality. Just saying, for the price, expected more overall.

The place to stay in Door County

The best VRBO place we've stayed at, even with the difficulty bringing luggage inside the house. You have to enter the house up 14 steps or try schlepping the luggage up a sloping gravel area. Suggest making it a driveway.

Great spot on Fish Creek

We enjoyed everything about the house. It was well located, just minutes from so many places. The beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked, the deck was great and the house was immaculate. As mentioned by others, there were a number of stairs up to the house but it wasn't a problem for us. Would definitely stay there again.

Couldn't have been better! Beautiful and very clean house with everything you would need! The deck/porch was a favorite gathering place...stretching in the morning and then coffee....cocktails in the evening. Wish we would have had more downtime to relax at the house. Great location!

Very Nice Place

The location was great. The fire pit fantastic. The front porch is great for coffee and an afternoon drink. The steps were a surprise but between the three of us kind of had a relay system going with one person at bottom carrying up part way, next person carrying to top and last person taking into cottage. Would definitely stay there again.
