About this property

This cottage is on the water, overlooking beautiful Sturgeon Bay. Perfect place for fishing, kayaking, bonfires, biking... One block from Otumba Park's tennis, basketball, volleyball courts, playground, and a public beach. gorgeous walk to downtown Sturgeon Bay. The 3 bedrooms in the cottage hold a King, Queen, and a Full bed. Additional Queen and Full sized hide-a-beds are available so we can now accommodate up to 10 guests. Full kitchen dining room for dinner parties with lots of indoor/outdoor space for family cookouts, reunions, or weddings. Musical instruments, vinyl records, movies, games, and books can entertain if the weather keeps you indoors. 2000' waterfront sundeck and 5' fire ring. 84'' dock (June 15th until Sept 15),
I have built/rebuilt it with friends over the years with what I like to call "a hodgepodge collection of my emerging (and emergency) carpentry skills". My 12 year old son and I call Door County home year round and love to travel as much as possible during our guest stays. We hope that you will enjoy the cottage as much as we do. Guests of ALL AGES are ENCOURAGED to play the instruments in the music room. We love to hear it! In fact, feel free to use anything you find in and around the cabin: from tools, appliances, utensils, to the fire pit, and outdoor grills, or even the row boat or kayaks(at your own risk (during the day (and use life vests!))). We are not your typical waterfront rental.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Bleck

Born and raised in Sturgeon Bay. I am a working singer songwriter. I have written many songs on steelbridgeradio.com ( a free online radio station that boasts over 2000 songs written and recorded here in Sturgeon Bay). I am also an on call wedding bartender. I imagine you get a pretty good idea of who we are when you stay here. We're living' the dream! I bought half of this cottage from my sister in 2008 after my father passed, and again from my ex-wife in 2011. We are hoping this new venture takes some of the burden off our monthly mortgage, utility, and maintenance expenses as well as giving us an opportunity to upgrade appliances and furnishings (and the roof). Thank you again for choosing to stay with us!!

Why they chose this property

My father was a teacher (like me) and bought this little fishing cottage in 1986 to dock his fishing boat and rented it to sailors, painters, ship builders, and working musicians for many years until he moved here in his retirement. He was also a charter fishing captain and restaurant owner. The cottage sometimes serves as a recording studio. Many local. regional, and national musicians have stayed here. The property has lots of local lore.

What makes this property unique

Fishermen love it for the location and charts, musicians love it for the instruments, kids love it for the games and close access to the park, families love it for the fire pit and water view, couples love the short walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the private sundeck. There's lots to love here. Welcome!
