About this property

Water's End Cottage: Lake Michigan Waterfront

Welcome to this quaint, lakeside cottage at Water’s End, hosted by Simple Life Rentals! With 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, living room, dining space, and full kitchen, it provides guests all the comforts of home in addition to the amazing setting. Enjoy the quiet serenity of Lake Michigan from the furnished deck, fire pit or bench swing. Experience the beautiful sunrises and incredible night skies that Door County has to offer. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway or convenient home for fishing, this is the spot. Guests can enjoy approximately 140 feet of lakefront property, including access to a large pier. You will fall in love with all that each season has to offer. This home is a short 5-mile drive from downtown Sister Bay, where you will find great shopping, restaurants, beach, kayak/boat rentals, sailing and boat charters, and much more!

We love our family pet dogs and welcome yours too. Your well-behaved dogs are allowed with prior approval. This property allows up to 2 dogs. There is a fee of $50 per dog/per night, which is collected separately and approximately one week prior to your check-in date.

*This is a quiet community with residential neighbors. This home is geared towards quiet family vacations. Due to the proximity of the neighbors, we cannot accommodate bachelor or bachelorette parties, reunions or other rowdy gatherings.

Great Place with Even Greater View
This was a great home. The common areas were spacious and the kitchen appeared well stocked. Some of the decor/finished were a little dated but the space itself was great. The outside area is amazing, there is a fire pit and a swing right on the water. Definitely would stay again.
