We had a wonderful time staying at this property. It is very clean and well-stocked with all essential needs The host provides complimentary Keurig coffee, tea, and various snacks. Communication with the host was very good. This place is walking distance to many shops and restaurants in Sturgeon Bay. We definitely would consider staying here again when we're back in Door County.
The house was as listed and Lauri (and her dogs) were very nice and always responsive. We always appreciate a place that allows us to bring our dogs on our trips!
The location was great - within a mile or two of great restaurants and bars. Very clean. Loved sitting out on the porch looking out at the beautiful backyard. We will definitely stay here again if available.
Very nice location. And perfect for us two people. Would like to have had access to temp control without asking but plenty of fans to make it comfortable. Also the smell of smoking was very obvious coming from the downstairs.

Hi Glenda,
I’m so sorry my smoking bothered you. I do go outside, but sometimes I forget to check if any windows are open. I’ll be more mindful of that going forward.
Thanks for letting me know.
Lauri’s rental was perfect for us. She accommodated us and our dog well and even had a dog bed in the living room. There was more than enough supply of coffee, morning snacks, etc. We will stay here again if we return to Sturgeon Bay for a few days again.
My husband and I brought our dog up North for the weekend and finding a place that was pet friendly was challenging. Our dog is 55 pounds and a lot of the places we looked at had a limit on size of pet. I am really glad this place was available and even came with a playmate for Izzy. The upstairs of the home is beautifully appointed. Comfortable bed, nice full kitchen, tvs, and all other ammenities I could think of. I don't think there was anything we felt was lacking. Stores and restaurants within walking distance and we really enjoyed our stay here.
Spent a week exploring the Door County area and this cozy, clean and comfortable apartment was the perfect location: it’s in a quiet neighborhood in Sturgeon Bay, which has everything you need (from Walmart to Kwik Trip to mom & pop stores) and is less than an hour drive to the very top of the peninsula. The location is within walking distance to a nice beach/park and the best dive bar in town, Greystone Castle, you’re welcome. The owner was super - the apartment was too warm for me, and within an hour of letting her know, the temp dropped to just the way I like it. She also has a great attention to detail, from the awesome variety of toiletries in the bathroom (bandaids, cotton swabs, Q-Tips, etc) to yummy snacks in the kitchen (a few different kinds of granola bars), all very much appreciated. All in all, great place to stay!
We loved the nice, clean apartment and quiet neighborhood. Great amenities and everything we needed. The deck was nice to relax on day or night.

I look forward to hosting you and sharing the Door County magic that made me stay.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect mix of charm, walkability, and quiet comfort. It's tucked in a peaceful residential area, yet just a short walk to downtown Sturgeon Bay’s shops, restaurants, and waterfront paths.
As someone who fell in love with Door County and decided to make it home, I wanted to create a space where guests could experience the same sense of relaxation and connection to the community that drew me here.
This location makes it easy to explore everything without needing to drive far, giving guests a true local experience.
What makes this property unique
The Hudson Avenue Loft combines walkable convenience with peaceful privacy—something rare in downtown Sturgeon Bay. Guests love having their own private entrance, deck, and driveway, making check-in and daily outings effortless.
The thoughtful blend of amenities truly sets this space apart: dog-friendly touches like bowls and treats, dedicated boat/trailer parking, and even baby gear like a Pack ’n Play and high chair for traveling families.
All of this is tucked in a quiet residential neighborhood just steps from the water, shops, and dining, offering the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure.
