About this property
Wooded Retreat With Space for Everyone
Starkhaus is the kind of place that feels quietly tucked into the woods, where mornings start slow and evenings stretch longer, yet the energy of downtown Sister Bay is just a short walk away. Surrounded by trees and set back from the road, this spacious retreat offers the rare combination of privacy and proximity. It is a home designed for gathering, unwinding, and making memories together, whether that means coffee on the deck, games downstairs, or a night around the fire under the stars.
Starkhaus Highlights
• Sleeps up to 12 guests across 4 bedrooms with 3 Kings, 2 Queens, and 2 Twins
• 3 full bathrooms including walk in showers, tub shower, and a whirlpool bathtub
• Quiet, wooded setting within walking distance of downtown Sister Bay
• Dog friendly with plenty of space to roam. One time dog fee applies
• Dedicated workspace with reliable high speed Wi Fi
• Fully equipped kitchen with Keurig and drip coffee maker
• Multi level deck, fire pit, and propane grill
• Three season porch for relaxed mornings and peaceful evenings
• Game room with pool table, shuffleboard, arcade games, and wet bar
• Smart TVs throughout the home, washer and dryer, and off street parking
Bedrooms and Bathrooms
The primary bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a luxurious king bed, large windows overlooking the woods, and a spacious walk in closet. A private en suite bathroom includes a jacuzzi tub, separate walk in shower, and dual vanities, creating a spa like experience.
Two additional bedrooms on the main floor offer comfortable accommodations, one with a king bed and one with two twin beds. These rooms share a nearby full bathroom with a tub and shower combination.
Downstairs, two more spacious bedrooms provide flexibility for larger groups. One includes a king bed, while the other features two queen beds and a crib. A shared bathroom between these rooms offers a double vanity and walk in shower.
All bedrooms feature hospitality grade mattresses, luxury linens, and Chromecast enabled TVs. Extra pillows and blankets are provided for added comfort.
Bathrooms are stocked with allergy free, eco friendly toiletries including hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. Hairdryers are provided for guest use.
Kitchen and Living Spaces
The open concept kitchen is fully stocked with modern appliances including a whisper quiet dishwasher, oven and stove, microwave, and toaster. A drip coffee maker and Keurig are provided along with a starter supply of Door County Coffee K Cups and individual coffee packets.
The dining area offers ample seating for shared meals and at home game nights.
The main living room centers around a gas fireplace with plush seating and a mounted Smart TV, creating a cozy space to relax after a day exploring Door County. Just off the living room, a secondary leisure space with soft seating offers a quieter spot to read, work, or enjoy conversation.
Outdoor Living
Starkhaus is nestled in a peaceful, wooded setting just off the main drag of Sister Bay. The multi level deck is perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks, surrounded by trees and fresh air. The fire pit area is a guest favorite, complete with Adirondack chairs and roasting sticks for s’mores under the stars.
The three season porch offers an inviting space to slow down, whether enjoying a quiet morning with coffee or winding down in the evening while listening to the sounds of the woods.
Game Room
The lower level of Starkhaus is designed for fun and connection. The game room features a pool table, shuffleboard, and classic arcade games, creating a space that guests of all ages enjoy. A wet bar and additional seating area with a Smart TV make this level ideal for group hangouts, game nights, and casual evenings together.
Safety and Property Notes
