Nice stay in Door County

Tucked Away was a perfect place for our family of five. Location was perfect for us to spend time in Fish Creek, Sister Bay, and a visit to Cave Point Park. The house was clean, comfortable, and cutely furnished/decorated. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in Door County!

Christine You guys were awesome renters! Tossing a load in is optional. So sorry for any inconvenience. We only ask that if possible guests toss in a load prior to leaving which gives our cleaning crew a head start on days we have quick turnovers. Have a great summer! Jon and Lucy

Clean and comfortable cottage

We had a lovely time at Tucked Away! It was clean and comfortable, with great design sense. Easy access to all the fun in the surrounding towns, but a quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy-areas. Great little cottage, perfect for my family of 6 (40s and two toddlers, and grandparents too).

Weekend trip to Door County

We loved our stay at Tucked Away. The place was very clean. It’s the perfect place for a couple get away, family, or girls weekend. I have to say the bed linens were very soft and cozy! We didn’t cook but the kitchen was well stocked. Once we accidentally locked ourselves out and John was very prompt in helping us.

Perfect location and clean property

Tucked Away was a perfect location from which to launch each day's activities. Centrally located, the home was clean, cozy, and well supplied. We used every amenity: the porch and deck, kitchen, bar, grill, and fire pit. We loved the wooded setting. We spent a lot of time exploring the state parks and kayaking and enjoyed coming home to Tucked Away for relaxing evenings.

Retreat in the woods

We enjoyed our stay in the “tucked away” retreat just outside of fish creek. The location makes access to so many great spots on the west side of the peninsula easily accessible. The beds are high as stated in other reviews but really probably fine for the average mobile adult though probably more challenging for young kids. The landlords were very kind. My wife lost her phone in the couch and they graciously helped us find it shortly after we had checked out!

Cozy cottage

My husband, his parents, and myself took this 5 night stay trip here in Fish Creek. This cottage was exactly what I was looking for. While the space is cozy, there was more than enough space for the four of us. The surrounding wooded area is beautiful and quiet. Just 4 minutes from downtown Fish Creek driving but very private. This cottage was in the perfect location for any sightseeing. The hosts fully stocked the home with any was supplies needed. I felt like I was staying at a friend's house. Thank you for such a memorable visit. You made this a very special trip.

Very quiet very clean in great location.

Realy enjoyed our stay was a very nice and clean place. The only negative thing was the bedroom in the down stairs was really high. And there was no step stool or any way to help a person that is older or with any disabilities to get in to the bed. She is 5'2" and it was past her waist. We had to lift her i to the bed.

The cottage was perfect for our family of 4 adults. It is back in the woods which is very peaceful. We saw a deer our first morning. It is very centrally located in Door County. I think the longest drive we had to anything we did was about 15-20 minutes. The cottage itself is very nice. The living dining and kitchen area were all great. The bedrooms were also nice and the mattresses were comfortable. As mentioned in other reviews there is one bed in one of the upstairs bedrooms that is very high off the ground, but the other 2 were fine. The bathrooms were also fine. The laundry is in the downstairs bath and it is a little loud. They do ask that you do a load of towels before you leave. We actually did them the night before and threw the remaining towels in the wash before we left, so that was not a big deal. The fire pit outside was really nice. And it was nice to sit outside and enjoy your morning coffee. I would stay at this property again.

Lovely cabin in a beautiful forest setting

My girlfriends and I enjoyed staying in this cabin, about 2 miles away from Fish Creek (a really cute villager but so crowded!). The cabin is in a forest setting, very quiet, so lovely to look out the window at the changing fall colors. Inside was cozy, with 3 bedrooms and 3 comfy beds. I took off 1 star because one of the bedrooms didn't seem to have the bedsheets changed (it smelled like other people). The rest of the house was very clean, and had most things we need to cook our meals. Plenty of extra towels available. I would have loved to stay longer to enjoy the firepit and the outdoor space. 10 min drive to peninsula state park, 30-40 min to newport state park, where we did some great hiking. Thank you for hosting us!

Mum and Sister’s Fall Holiday

The KipDee Cottage was the perfect place for our Fall Holiday. Just the right size for the four of us. Cozy, Comfortable, Beautifully Decorated, Great Floor Plan, Amazing Views from each room and well furnished and stocked. Tucked away nicely but so close to all the restaurants and shops which we enjoyed. We also travelled up to the ferry and back down taking in the views and the farm stands. After our outings it was nice coming home to the cottage because it did feel like home. We enjoyed a bonfire on Friday and it took all three sisters to get it going but it was worth it. LOL Our Mum had never been in a VRBO so she was so excited and enjoyed it. None of us got to enjoy the rocker recliner because she claimed that as her spot. LOL Jon and Lucy Thank You for making such a warm and cozy place for a Mum and her three daughters to make memories that will last us a life time. You are a part of those memories. Our Mum is in her 80’s and enjoys taking holidays with her girls ❤️ Door county is not new to me but it has been years since I had been there and it was nice to see not much had changed ❤️
