About this property

Large groups! Game Room, Huge Yard, Firepit, Bikes

Welcome to Chatham Hills, a newly renovated large group rental in the historic district of Ephraim. Situated on 26 acres of groomed hiking trails, it's perfect for family reunions, group trips, and small weddings. Tucked away in the picturesque and historic village of Ephraim in Door County, this property offers a serene retreat.

Sleeping up to 30 guests, when you book, you get the entire property to yourself! Chatham Hills is pet and child/infant friendly. It consists of two distinct buildings: a large home with socializing areas and a newly renovated bunk house for sleeping. In total, there are 12 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms, ensuring maximum space and comfort.

The Main House features four spacious bedrooms, a fully renovated kitchen/dining area with a beautiful Amish-made farmhouse table, and a living room with a large sectional couch, TV with ROKU, where you can login to your streaming services, and fireplace. There's also a lounge area perfect for relaxation, equipped with a futon for additional sleeping space. The lower level has been converted into a game room with a bumper pool table, arcade machine, and an additional kitchen for serving appetizers and snacks.

The Bunk House offers complete privacy and comfort for guests seeking a peaceful sleep. It features eight suites, four with two full-size beds each and four with one king bed. Each suite has its own private entrance, bathroom, and kitchenette with a mini fridge and microwave. The Bunk House is separate from the main house, allowing guests to enjoy the game room, lounge, and socializing areas while others retreat for sleep.

In addition to the indoor spaces, Chatham Hills provides plenty of outdoor gathering areas. Enjoy private decks, porches, balconies, and a spacious backyard with a fire pit. The backyard leads up to the Door County Land Trust, a magnificent nature preserve, perfect for activities like hiking, dog walking, snow-shoeing, and cross-country skiing. There's also a half-acre grassy area for outdoor games and fun.

Girls Getaway
I wanted enough beds for each person in our group, and this property had that. I wanted a place where each person could shower and not have to share. This place had that. Iwanted a place where we could all congregate. This place had that. I wanted a place to prepare meals, i also had that. Easy check in and check out.

Plenty of room
My family of 12 adults found this gem and it was perfect for us, definitely rebooking next year. Everyone had a bedroom and bathroom, which every member of my family LOVED. The basement is a basement it is musty nothing that turning on the heat or air would not take care of the rooms are small with a number of games to play. The huge dining room with a table to accommodate many people was great for us whether we were eating, playing games, carving pumpkins, or visiting. A nice kitchen filled with everything we needed. The coffee bar was fully stocked. Beautiful trail behind the house. We didn't use any thing in the adventure shed because we had so many activities planned prior. We could have used a few more blankets. Emily was very responsive when I had any questions.

Great Stay!
We had a great family retreat at Chatham Hills. The house has everything you need and plenty of room for everyone. The location is walkable to downtown Ephraim and has side roads so you are not walking on the busier Water Street. Sister Bay is a few minutes drive away as well as Peninsula state park. There are endless things to do within a 20 minute drive. We will be back for sure!
