Luxury lakefront home - 6 BRs, kids, pets, EVs, elevator - family celebrations


Cana Pointe Lake House is a large modern rental vacation home sited on a majestic stretch of Door County, Wisconsin's waterfront. It was designed to accommodate multiple generation friend and family gatherings as well as be an intimate wedding venue.

Kids are well accommodated and pets are welcome.

Located on the wooded shore of Lake Michigan down a quiet Wisconsin Rustic Road, you are but:
- 3 miles from Baileys Harbor
- 10 miles from Sister Bay
- 11 from Ephraim
- 14 miles from Fish Creek
- 15 miles from Egg Harbor
all in Wisconsin’s fabled Door County.

- Architecturally designed to provide spectacular views of Lake Michigan and its colorful, ever-changing wave patterns from all living spaces.

- Situated on the “quiet side” of the Door peninsula with all tourist towns easily reachable on nearly traffic-free back county roads.

- Past guests marvel at how the main floor great room design provides simultaneous lake views to:
- 20+ sit-down diners
- Food preparers, whether in the kitchen or at the outdoor deck grill
- Groups watching television and/or conversing in several separate areas

- Sleeping accommodations for 12 adults where all have lake views and there is bed configuration flexibility.

- Play area for kids, firepit by the shore and pets are welcome.

- The home has an elevator to facilitate travel between floors, a large yard with a fire pit by the shore, a unique 12’ by 12’ rooftop crow’s nest providing 360* panoramic views - coveted by teenagers for its all day sun and amateur astronomers for spectacular night skies.

- Couples have held beautiful intimate weddings in the spacious lakeside yard and had their wedding party stay right here in the house (contact Bill for details at (562) 212-4563).

Cana Pointe Lake House has been outfitted to provide a memorable experience to your whole group. Floor to ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings bring the beautiful outdoors into every room. The home has Starlink internet and cable TV service, but we hope you can unplug at least some of the time. An elevator facilitates mobility between floors.

Guests have found the following aspects of the home to be particularly appealing:

- Outdoor deck with grilling facilities off the great room just steps from the dining table also includes a fire table with chairs
- A separate home office as well as another secluded study desk with strong internet
- An electric car-charging outlet
- Dog friendly
- An exercise room with treadmill, weights, and yoga mats
- Satellite TVs in each bedroom and in three group areas
- Three gas fireplaces provide cozy warmth or just ambiance
- Indoor and outdoor picnic area and lakeside fire ring for camp fires
- Kitchenette provides morning coffee, heated snacks, and cold drinks just steps from the first floor bedrooms
- The “Pirates’ Dungeon” with beds for up to 5 youngsters together with 5 other bedrooms and two additional closed door sleeping areas can accommodate your group in privacy.
- A variety of entertainment including corn hole, ping pong, frisbee golf
- Complete laundry facilities

Cana Pointe Lake House rests on a peninsula overlooking Lake Michigan surrounded by the protected Boreal Forest of Baileys Harbor and a stone’s throw from the iconic Cana Island lighthouse. The immediate area can be enjoyed during all four seasons. Our guests enjoy the changing moods of Lake Michigan depending on light and wind conditions. Sunrises and moon risings are spectacular from every room. Northern lights and the Milky Way are often visible from the crow's nest when conditions are right.

Guests actively explore:
- The historic waterfront villages of Door County offer dining, shopping, art and culture. Dining options are many. Shopping is varied. According to Door County’s tourist bureau, over 100 art galleries and studios are scattered throughout the area. Several award-winning theatre groups perform during the season.

- Our location provides easy access to all the Door County attractions without the endless summer traffic of the bayside - a difference only appreciated with experience.

Outdoor activities are a hallmark of Door County and include:
- Boating – rental options on all types of boats as well as charter cruises are located throughout the county.
- Golfing – there are 8 courses on the peninsula and 4 miniature golfing for the small children
- Fishing – a top Midwest site for bass, walleye, perch, brown trout, and salmon – on your own or with one of the dozen charters. Ice fishing is available for the seasonally hardy. Note: A 32 pound brown trout was caught locally in April 2021.
- Hiking – there are 5 state parks, 19 county parks, and numerous village hiking trails. The Boreal Forest hike begins just steps away. Note: The autumn leaf colors in Door County vie with New England in annual surveys.
- Biking – through the state parks and along the rustic roads.
More extreme sports include wind surfing, scuba diving the over 100 shipwrecks along the coast, and zip lining.
- Guided nature walks at the nearby Ridges Sanctuary.
- Taking a ferry over to Washington Island to experience where the settling of Wisconsin started.
- The solitude of winter with cozy fires and the ability to enjoy winter sports like tubing, snow shoeing, ice skating, dog sledding, pond hockey, and cross-country skiing

Gorgeous, secluded, lakeside location

We had a family gathering of 15, ranging from 17 to 78, the house was fabulous; the setting couldn't have been better. It was close enough to everything we wanted to do. We went to a fish boil, took family pictures on our own beach with the lighthouse in the background, played pickleball, cornhole, went kayaking, took in a play, walked to the lighthouse, made meals at home, went out to eat two or three times, took hikes in the state parks, and just hung out as a family and played games indoors.

Great Family Week!

Our family (ranging in age from 7-71) stayed for the week to celebrated our parents 50th wedding anniversary. We loved it here! Bill was very helpful and provided excellent details before our stay. The home was clean, beautiful, and had everything we could have needed! The layout is great, socially with kids. The location was great - we left each day for an adventure and it was a good proximity to all activities. The walk to the lighthouse can’t be beat - we saw deer, a porcupine, snakes, turkeys, and more! The beds are comfortable and we especially loved having ample seating for everyone, especially meals. The internet and TVs worked great, but cell phones didn’t (that was a Door Co thing, not the house). The view is worth every penny! Thank you for being great hosts - this week was a blessing!

Wonderful experience & host

This was the perfect location for our family getaway! The house was beautiful and there was plenty of room for everyone. It was nice to have the fire pit, play set and games available for us. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the supplies we needed for making meals and the beds were very comfortable. We loved the views and privacy as well as the proximity to many of the spots we visited. The owner was wonderful to work with. Communication was great and Bill provided many recommendations specific to our family's interests. We highly recommend the Cana Point Lake House and look forward to coming back. Thank you!

BEST VRBO!!!!

We love staying here and are just on our way home from a long February weekend with family, celebrating Valentines Day with Grandma and my 4 kids. It’s quiet and cold in the winter, but the house is warm and cozy. The view is spectacular, and the photos don’t capture it like when you are there. We enjoy walking to the Cana lighthouse, and visiting local restaurants. I can’t say enough about this VRBO, it is our second time but certainly not our last! It’s simply perfect…

If It Shows Up In Your Search-Book It

This place hit all the marks for our group of 10 that used as a base camp for Door County adventures. It really has something for all the peeps in your group: water, space for quiet, space for the loud, cooks (inside and out), pingpong...list goes on! We are already in the process of booking it again next year.

Great Home For Our Annual Gathering

Each year for the past 30 plus years 10 friends gather for a long weekend to catch up. We always look for a house that can handle a large group. That means having enough beds, but also enough pots, pans, plates and the like to make it easy to have meals, and nice common spaces to spread out. This beautiful house on the lake punched all the buttons. The house had everything we needed and was beautifully situated. Once we settled in, we did not feel the need to leave the house, other than for walks, the entire weekend. Communication with the owner was easy and he texted us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Check in and check out were a snap. We would stay here again.

Perfect family getaway

Our family had the best time in this beautiful home! There was plenty of space for our multi-generational group to sleep, eat, play, and gather. The views of the lake and lighthouse are incredible. The location is perfect for exploring nature along the rocky shoreline. The kids loved the swing set and lawn games, and the adults loved relaxing on the porch and around the fire pit. Bill, the owner, provided many helpful recommendations and was very responsive. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

About the host

Hosted by Bill DeVitt

Host profile image
We have hosted over 80 groups since my wife Monica and I bought this property in 2021. I'm a native of Wisconsin, but lived for forty years in California. We recently moved to Door County full-time after using it as a secondary home for 20 years.

I am interested in nature, history, sports, travel, and business and am a docent at the Door County Maritime Museum.

Why they chose this property

This is family-owned and designed by a local architect. We recently purchased it to be an occasional home near our Milwaukee and Minneapolis grandchildren and to share its ambience with guests like you throughout the seasons. Monica and I have several decades of seasonal Door County living experience and have a personal commitment to improve your getaway here in Door County. We love the quiet solitude yet active lifestyle of Door County so much we have moved here permanently.

What makes this property unique

This home was re-designed by an architect to take advantage of the unique geography of the property. This is a luxury accommodation right on the lake, away from the hustle and bustle of Door County towns, yet close enough to enjoy all they have to offer.
