wonderful place to be to disconnect and relax.

clean and neat upon arrival - big plus for me. View is absolutely beautiful. Perfect for unplugging and downloading from everything busy. Plenty of "toys" to enjoy the water right in front of me. Board games and a game room there for those days that are enjoyed inside. Good place to be.

Private and serene

Cozy and clean house with essentials provided and nice game room. Our favorite part was the outdoor area, which felt very private and serene with lake access right in the back yard! The hut filled with outdoor activity equipment was so nice to have.

We couldn't find any.Table in porch room needs the screws tightened.We hope to stay there again next year. It was just wonderful. Thank you so much.!!

Great place for a girls trip!

The Lake Haus was the perfect place to host our girls weekend! The view from the backyard was gorgeous and we had endless room for yard games! The adventure shed was also a hit in our group. I was also at peace knowing that if it rained, we would have endless entertainment in the game room. Emily also provided great communication throughout the booking process and during our stay. Overall, a great place for a weekend getaway!

Quick weekend stay with family before school got into full gear. We loved the property. It was a great place to stay with teens and the pup. We enjoyed the arcade room and the fire pit. The bunk room was perfect. I enjoyed having coffee by the lake in the mornings and we could see the door county sunsets from the dock. Only downsides- the area is remote. Which is great if you are looking for peace and quiet, but a bit of a drive to do door county things. Because of the remote location, the yard is very buggy. The owners are very strict about the check-in and checkout times and they are late/early, so it cut the trip shorter.Overall, I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to family and friends.

While my spouse and I were feeling tremendous anxiety about an upcoming medical procedure the waterfront location, fresh air & our dog's company released a great amount of that anxiety and tension. We spent most of our time next to blazing fires at the fire pit watching amazing sunsets which was ideal for relaxing and enjoying our time there.The online pictures show exactly what you get. Emily and her staff were friendly and helpful with everything we needed. They made our stay that much more enjoyable.However, I counted at least 20 places to sleep on this property. A dorm area that can accommodate 16 sleepers, the master bedroom for 2 and a fold out sofa for 2 more. But only 1 bathroom with a shower/tub. In my opinion 6 people would be the max to stay comfortable. Although there is enough entertainment on the property to keep 20 occupied with a massive game room and tons of outdoor activities provided. So don't disappoint your selves by over booking.

Relaxing!

Very relaxing getaway to explore Door County! Even if it was wintertime, there's still so much to see and enjoy. I had to ask Emily a couple questions while we were there and she was very prompt with answering. Very easy check in and out process. The gameroom was awesome! Overall the property was very nice!

Perfect getaway for family with teens

The house with a separate bunk area and game room was perfect for our 16 year son and his friend. When they weren’t hanging out inside, they were kayaking, biking and fishing (all equipment was part of the stay). At night we enjoyed and outdoor fire pit and sitting in front of the fire in the living room watching Netflix.The location, the accommodations, activities, the management company - five stars all around!

Peaceful Escape

We enjoyed a quiet, restful weekend by the lake in this well kept, well stocked lake cottage. It was close to town, but felt remote and was very peaceful. I recommend for a winter getaway if that’s the environment you’re look for!

The Perfect Little Long Weekend Getaway!

Our three kiddos had a long weekend off of school, so we decided to do an impromptu long weekend getaway! We loved that dogs were allowed, all the beautiful hiking options within a 45 minute drive, the beautiful sunsets from the dock, the super fun and entertaining game room, the adventure shed, and the fully stocked kitchen so we could cook breakfasts and other meals at home. We truly enjoyed our stay. :)
