Our family stayed here over thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. The views of the bay are spectacular. This would have probably been more fun in the summer. But was still a great time.

Little Suamico Retreat

An extremely beautiful home in a peaceful location on Green Bay. Very clean accommodations with everything you would need and in close proximity to Lambeau Field. Our family especially enjoyed the game room. Also location to Smulley's Bar was a very convenient 5 min. walk for drinks and dining. 5++ star property. - R&J Wenzel Kirkland, WA

Amazing stay

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful property! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The host was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The house itself is stunning, tastefully decorated, and meticulously maintained. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the home was well-stocked with all the essentials, from kitchen supplies to toiletries, which made our stay so much easier and more convenient. The outdoor space, particularly the lake view, is a great bonus. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy some peace and quiet.Overall, this property exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

Great experience

Donna and James, We read some of the great reviews and we agree!! We too were so impressed by the photos that we booked without any further searching! The house exceeded all of our expectations, and more. The beds and linens were so wonderful! We loved the game room for hanging all together! Loved the Smully's Bar & were happy we could "walk" back to the house (wink). Also, the kitchen has EVERYTHING!

Framily Getaway

You read that right...Framily...Our two families of 5 love to vacation together. We googled on a whim and booked impulsively! We lucked out. Our stay was wonderful. The views were just gorgeous. It is very much off the beaten path where only locals dwell and we loved it that way. Smully's on the Bay was in walking distance and we ate Luigi's, Wouters, 888, and enjoyed the Ahnapee Brewery. The binder left by the owners recommended everything and we can't wait to come back and try the other places we didn't make it to this time. The house is fully equipped and honestly we over packed. This is the perfect place for relaxing and recharging.

Perfect Vacation!

This property is exactly what we needed to escape urban life. The house and location are even better in person. And the lake views are breath taking!!!! Traveling with children it's always nice to have many in/outdoor toys and life vests already at the property so they don't need to be packed and this property has so much! The location is nice and private with plenty to do in the area or for any day trip. More than likely you'll be completely satisfied just hanging at the lake like we were. The home is beautiful and super clean and everything is like new!!! Donna was great and offered many great local recommendations and was very quick to respond during our communication. I would highly recommend this home and hope to come back for another Northwoods adventure. We're so glad that we found this house.

About the host

Hosted by Donna & James Schmitz

Host profile image
Hosts James (from Wheaton, IL) and Donna Schmitz (from DePere, WI) love the outdoors- hiking, biking, water sports, tennis, pickle ball - We love to travel, spend time with our families and enjoy the beauty of Nature.

We found this gem and are thrilled to share it with you so you can make memories here too. We put our heart and soul into renovating the home.

Why they chose this property

A little about the property. The house is unique in that it was actually built by a Ship Builder, thus the many nautical looking features throughout. Each upper room has its own staircase which helps with privacy when sharing the home with other families.

The property also has a gorgeous tea house! We call it the tiki hut but it really is a little house full with a wood burning fireplace and electricity. We have a T.V. In there as well. Perfect for cooler days/evenings when you want to be outside but stay warm too. This is a family favorite as well.

The other cool feature about this property is that we have turned the garage into a living space for a game room and extra living room - so it has a sofa sectional & large T.V. along with a dedicated space for young children and the rest of the space has games such as double basketball, darts, a full size ping pong table, etc. This room is among our family favorites, as it is large enough to have everyone doing their thing at once! A great social room.

Out and around the neighborhood there is a public boat launch (100’ away), a bar & grill (Smully’s) and a quiet neighborhood of mostly cabins and cottages.

What makes this property unique

It’s beautiful! We’ve been told that our property is the prize of this small neighborhood. It’s light and bright; and minimally decorated so as not to overwhelm anyone - and we spend a ton of time keeping it looking and being its best. You are not going to experience warn items or dated anything! It will always be fresh and clean and clear of accumulation that so often happens in other properties.
