About this property

Starflower Cottage- Vintage Charm on the Lake

Welcome to Starflower Cottage! Vintage charm meets modern amenities at Starflower Cottage on Kangaroo Lake. Knotty pine walls, cozy corners to curl up with a book, and a gas fireplace for chilly nights on the lake. 3 beds, 2 baths and many modern updates make for a comfortable stay. The lake is great for swimming and the cottage comes with kayaks, a SUP, and water access directly on the property. Grill and firepit for outdoor fun and Baileys Harbor is just 5 minutes away. Tons of restaurants, coffee shops, hiking, and wineries nearby. Relax and unwind at this beautiful retreat. Please note, the dock is in over the summer months, but installation and removal is weather dependent. Also, we have moved the TV to the primary bedroom as we don’t spend much time watching tv while we are there, but you are welcome to move it as you see fit!

This was a perfect getaway location for our summer Wisconsin adventure. The location to everything in Door county was perfect and super convenient. Being on Kangaroo Lake was also a bonus. The fire pit was amazing and the landscaping created such a charming atmosphere. The cottage was cozy and perfect for our family of four. We hope to be back to experience more of what Door County has to offer.

This place was so adorable. It's the perfect place to spend our 4th of July weekend. The house was super clean and the view of the lake was amazing. The shoreline is rocky, but the lake itself is super smooth and sandy if you are swimming off the dock. I totally recommend staying here.

Part of me wishes this house were kept a secret. It’s so special. If you do rent it, please treat it well! Most families who rent out a long-held dreamy home remove all of their beautiful things. Here, the dishes, silverware, blankets, and water-play gear are all top-notch. Please, please let’s all reward the family by being gentle with their gorgeous vacation home.

Great location to explore Door County from!

My friends and I enjoyed our stay at Starflower Cottage. The view of the lake was lovely from the porch while we played card and dice games between exploring all that Door County had to offer. Bailey's Harbor is small but offers several nice restaurants to choose from. We especially enjoyed Inland, which surprised us with fantastic pizza and salads.

Peaceful setting for Family Fun

This was a mother/daughter get away that we thoroughly enjoyed. We were looking for a quiet, low stress mini break and Starflower cottage delivered! This home gave us a perfect central spot to see all that Door County offers vacationers. Plus a kayaking afternoon in tranquil Kangaroo lake with kayaks included with the rental. Perfect!

Perfect place to relax

This place is great. Doesn’t even feel like you’re in Door County yet a short drive to most major towns. We fished, grilled, and had many fire pit fires. Great relaxing time!!

Everything was amazing. The place was great, communication with host was very helpful and timely, and we very much enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect location, and it was right on the water. If we come back to Door County again I would hands down look to stay here!!

Awesome stay in Door County

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our door county vacation at starflower cottage. Everyone agreed that the best days of the trip were the days spent on the lake swimming, kayaking, paddle board, fire pit and cooking. The cottage has everything you need and the location can't be beat. Liz and Andy are great hosts. We hope to come back soon.

This property is 10/10! The host is 5-star! We enjoyed every minute of our 7 nights vacation and wis

Initially booked for 5 nights, but we were able to extend it to 7 nights. We travel a lot, including overseas, and this property was the best we ever stayed at. The host is very welcoming and helpful, and the amenities are better than described and expected. We rarely left the property, as it was very relaxing and enjoyable. We hope to come back soon!

Great stay

The house is beautiful and has all the amenities one would need for a stay. There was a lovely view of the lake. The house is spacious, clean and well put together. There were 2 types of coffee machines and coffee provided, lots of pots and pans. There was also a washer and dryer. We stayed with our 2 teenagers and they liked the house too.

Great time on the lake

Excellent home, very well appointed (the owners have gone to great lengths to provide just about anything you need). Kayaks and paddle board are great to use on a pretty calm lake. Your about five minutes from Bailey's Harbor, while the rest of the towns are within easy reach. Restaurants are close, as are zip lines and various recreational tours. We will be back!! Brad K.

Hi there! I'm Liz. I live in Madison with my husband, kiddos, and pup. We love our little slice of heaven on the lake and hope you do, too! We picked it for its beautiful sunsets, yard to play in, and proximity to all the outdoorsy fun Door County has to offer. We look forward to hosting you!
