Great Location for a Door County Family Vacation

Our family of five had a fantastic first trip to Door County, and a big part of that was thanks to this wonderful cottage. The owners were communicative, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. They’ve thoughtfully included so many family-friendly amenities—from baby gear (which we didn’t need this time), to pet supplies, board games, puzzles, video games, coolers, kayaks, bikes, and more. It’s clear they’re intentional and truly committed to helping families have a great experience.

This property is so peaceful! Door County Cottage, near Haines Beach has a large lot with room to have private camp fire with and neighbors far enough away through the woods that you feel secluded. The Cottage is very clean and remodeled recently. Beds are so comfortable with large rooms. Everything really sets this property apart, and then there is all the extras: Kayaks, bicycles, toys for littles and games for adults! I definitely recommend this property. Owners are easy to contact and fast to respond.

The cottage was very easy to get to and very accessible to Sturgeon Bay. We did have an issue with some yellow jackets, but I believe Rick's dad, was kind enough and bought an extra can of spray, since the current can only had enough to kill a few on the nest. Small suggestion, to possibly add more reinforcement to the queen size bunk bed. My daughter and husband said it was coming through the slats causing them to roll in towards the middle. But overall they still rested well and the cottage was just what we needed. We enjoyed our stay. The area is beautiful.

Relax Under the Stars

We had a fantastic stay at this Door County Cottage. It is a wonderful place for a stay with friends or family with lots of activities and a great patio for relaxing. We recommend kayaking to Haines Beach. It is a short trip and provides a beautiful view of the lake and surrounding houses. Highly recommend this place!!!
