An ideal get-away

This is a beautiful home in an amazing setting. The hosts pay attention to details that a visitor will welcome, and are very accommodating and available. Small touches (like host gifts, an excellent TP supply, the basics of laundry soap, dish soap, etc., and beach towels are provided) make it a convenient way to start a vacation easily. A history of the building is an interesting, fun addition. There is lots of space to utilize, both inside and out.

Wonderful house on the beach

Comfortable house with up to date kitchen and bathrooms located steps from Lake Michigan and an expansive sand beach. This rental is hosted by a nice family who are helpful and available for questions. It is a beautiful location to get away for a peaceful vacation to enjoy the water and the beach. It is close enough to the Door County highway system to also take advantage of the other attractions in Door County.

Couldn't ask for more

Our 1st stay at this property. It was immediately clear that Elizabeth and Gary had invested time and thoughtfulness to ensure that guests were well-provided for in terms of both amenities and comfort. Decorating and art work were exceptional. The house offered everything needed for a comfortable stay: kitchen amenities, grills, bedding, games, TV, etc, were all wonderful. They live next-door (but were not intrusive) and are immediately available to answer questions and solve problems. Water access and beach couldn't have been better. . A location farther north in the peninsula would have been a plus. You are 30 minutes from most of the activity in Door Co. But, despite that, we would absolutely return because the rest of the amenities more than compensate. We highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth & Gary Wolkstein

We have owned the adjacent property for 20 years and this property just became available in 2021. We decided to purchase the property for use by our growing family of children and grandchildren. When not in use for our family, we are happy to offer this one of a kind and beautiful property to others who would like a memorable vacation.

Why they chose this property

This is a special place with a beach that changes daily. One day there are thousands of colorful stones, another day the beach is sandy. There are all kinds of birds to watch, boats and ships at a distance headed to the ship canal. One day the beach will be calm, the next there will be a wild surf.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of nature, tranquility, very few people, cool lake breezes all summer long and long beach walks are some of the unique benefits. Bike to the Coast Guard station, the ship canal, the nearby town. Read a book while the children play in the sand.
