About the host
Hosted by Jeremy and Caitlyn Jeffery

Meet your hosts, the Jeffery family.
We believe in collecting memories, not things—and aim to create a space where you & your loved ones will want to return for years to come.
There’s no place on the planet I love more than Door County. I’m Caitlyn, wife to Jeremy and mama to two girls, Liliana and Addison. My extended family has been vacationing in Door County for more than 100 years, and I grew up making some of my all-time most-cherished memories here.
It’s an absolute dream to now get to share this place with others... To help you to plan your vacations here, slow down for a little while, and experience time together that will be looked back on warmly for years to come. Door County is something special—it’s driving distance from Chicago and several Midwestern metropolises, but it’s remote enough to feel like an escape from the regular fast pace of life. You can cozy up by a fire in one of our cabins, spend your days on the water, or explore the specialty shops, unbelievable restaurants, outdoor activities, and delightful wineries Door County has to offer. There’s truly something for everyone in Door County.
We stand for…
We stand for… Embracing rest, lake water, and time spent with your people as the best cure-all to recover from fast-paced days and jam-packed schedules.
We stand for… Creating an environment rich with opportunity to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with loved ones.
We stand for… Taking care of all the details & essentials, so you and your family (dogs, too!) can unplug, play, relax, and make life-lasting memories at the lake, year after year.
