About this property

Beautiful Sunsets on the Bay! Waterfront, large yard, updated home.

Update for 2023: New floors were installed on the first floor. New pictures coming soon.

Relax and enjoy sunsets at this beautiful bay shore rental.

Enjoy watching the sunset from the shoreline deck, the seasonal dock, the large house deck or any of the big water-view widows. You can also paddle the beautiful coastline with the 2 kayaks we provide with this property.

Located just south of Egg Harbor and just north of Sturgeon Bay, you are in the the perfect location to enjoy all that Door County has to offer. When you're tired of water and sunsets, The Stone Duck is across the street from the Bayshore Blufflands State Natural Area where you can enjoy nature walks and see the Niagara Escarpment (rocky bluffs formed from glaciers millions of years ago). We are short drive north to Murphy Park, a water front park with a sand beach and boat launch. Enjoy easy access to Egg Harbor and Sturgeon Bay for amazing restaurants and shopping. And no need to bring groceries with you, we are located a short drive to Walmart and Target in Sturgeon Bay.

The Stone Duck has 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The second floor features 2 bedrooms (one with queen bed and the second with two sets of bunk beds) and a full bath with tub. The main level has a large fully stocked kitchen including dishwasher and a dining table that seats 8. A living room with TV (with Roku stick for streaming shows and movies), sofa, love seat, comfy chair and puzzle/gaming table. One bedroom with a king bed. A full bathroom with a large standup shower. Step out the of the sliding glass door to the large deck with patio dining table and chairs, or relax on the outdoor love seat and chairs. If that's not enough, then walk down to the chairs on the water-side deck or enjoying roasting s'mores around the fire pit. Gas and charcoal grill are provided for all your BBQ needs. There is also a seasonal dock with a large area for sitting or for access to the water via the ladder (the dock is put in around June and taken out in September).

We do allow you to bring your well-behaved dog for a $25 per night fee. Please don't forget to include your dog when booking. We do ask that you leash your dog when outside.

Internet/WiFi - We have Starlink internet that provides fast, reliable internet speeds. It can on occasion get slowed down during bad storms, but this is pretty rare. We have also installed a cell phone booster that boosts the signal of cell service providers. It helps with our Verizon service, but unsure of the results on other carriers.

During peak season this property books Saturday to Saturday and has a 3-day minimum during off-peak season. The house sleeps 8 people (1 king bed, 1 queen bed, and 1 bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds).

Cancellations - Travelers who cancel at least 60 days before check-in will get back 100% of the amount they've paid. If they cancel after that point, they will not get a refund. However; if they cancel less than 60 days, we will make every good faith effort to re-rent the House for the same period and rental amount, and if successful, the entire rental amount will be returned minus a $100 service charge.

Note - we do have a video doorbell for security purposes.

Stone Duck was a fantastic location for our long weekend! The hosts were excellent in responding and the house was great. Andrew responded within minutes to any questions we had and provided a well equipped home. We only cooked a few meals, but the kitchen had everything we needed. We were in town for the Fall 50 race and the location on the route made it easy to get to Sturgeon Bay and Egg Harbor. Our visit was late October so we didn’t use the outdoor equipment, but everything looked well kept. The inside is clean and livable which was very nice with a young child. We will definitely look to stay again soon. Thank you to the hosts!

Excellent waterfront vacation home

This was our second year staying here. The house is modern, clean and has amazing views of Green Bay. The great deck allows for hours of watching the water, birds and sunsets. Easy access to main Door County Road and downtown Sturgeon Bay.

Outstanding Rental at Door County!!

This vacation home is one of the best we've stayed in over the years! It was beautifully decorated, very clean with a wonderful deck and back yard right on the water. The owners were very responsive and check in was a breeze. This is an excellent "home base" away from the crowds AND conveniently located to easily get around Door County. If you're planning a trip to Door County, I encourage you to rent this place - if we come back, we'd want to stay here!

Amazing house!

We loved our week at Stone Duck! The house layout was perfect for our group of parents and young adults. Huge kitchen was great for cooking and gathering. Plenty of room to both be together in the comfy living room, fire pit area for s’mores and viewing the gorgeous sunsets, relaxing on the dock, grilling on the deck - but also to spread out in the many seating areas outside. Great location close to many towns and adventures. The only very minor regret was that the listing describes the dock as having a swimming ladder, and there was not one. While the water was pretty chilly for swimming during our stay, it seems that that misleading information might be disappointing for families hoping to be at the house and easily, get in and out of the water. Thank you so much for an incredible place to stay! We definitely plan to return!!!

A very nice place to stay in winter

My wife and I and my wife's brother and wife spent Feb 8-15, 2025 at the Stone Duck. It sits right on Green Bay. We had beautiful sunsets 5 of the 7 nights. We were lucky and had beautiful snow which our pup had never seen, and she totally enjoyed romping in it. The drive had to be snowplowed twice, but is happened automatically without our having to do anything. The house is about 1/2 mile from one of the Door County Land Trust's many hiking trails. We went to different Trust locations every day to hike.They are very scenic and easy to moderate hiking generally 1-1/2 to 2 miles. The house is centrally located on the peninsula so it is easy to get to all parts. The house itself is nice, and Andrew, the owner of the house, is very responsive in answering our questions ahead of time. We had a great time and are already talking about returning. We had hoped to see the northern lights, but cloud cover and the atmospheric conditions just did not cooperate. There is probably a better chance to see the lights at the northern end of the island, but we knew that but really liked the description of the Stone Duck in the reviews, so we chose to stay there.. We fully enjoyed the house.

Beautiful property

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was nice to be a little out of town but close enough to get anything you need. The house was very nice and we enjoyed seeing the beautiful sunsets from the patio. Check in/out was very easy and host is very prompt with responses. We didn’t have any issues or problems. There were lots of games, puzzles, and dvds to enjoy in the evenings or on a rainy day, and we all had fun our last evening painting a rock. Loved having use of the 2 kayaks too. A very nice property for our family vacation in door county!

Just perfect!

We had a wonderful time. The property was beautiful and right on the water. My parents are in their eighties so having a first floor room and bathroom was perfect. And we could bring their dog. Beautiful sunsets over the bay. Great location. It was quiet but not too far from the tourist area if you are inclined.
