This was a lovely, quiet cabin with a great view. Every time we left we felt like we were missing out, and one night we decided to head back early just to enjoy the cabin for the evening. It is comfy and clean, and we enjoyed all the little quirks of a historic cabin. It was also fun to explore the coast down below.

Beautiful cozy stay!!!

My husband and I loved this location — the location is beautiful and tucked away, but still not too far from good food, fun sightseeing, and any other necessities! The breeze off of the lake was perfect for keeping us cool all day and the fireplaces kept us perfectly warm in the evenings:) We had a blast!

Authentic feel, perfectly situated on Lake Michigan

The location was perfect for us - away from crowds and right on the lake. The cabin is charming with its stone fireplaces and knotty pine paneling. We made a fire inside as well as outside in the fire pit, and we spent lots time enjoying the day down on the rocks. The kitchen was quite small, but had most everything we needed.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

My boyfriend and I booked this for his birthday weekend. It was so cozy and perfect for the first cool weekend of fall! Such a great, quiet location right on the water. The cabin was clean and comfortable and access to the water was amazing. The electric fireplace in the bedroom was very convenient and we took advantage of the real fireplace in the living room at night. Highly recommend this spot.

Door County away from the Tourist Traps

Wonderful Cabin, great hosts, Awesome view of Lake Michigan away from all of the bustle of the west side of Door County. We were able to see and do so much from this private secluded location. We went to Washington Island for most of a day and still got back in time to enjoy Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant We found other great places to eat close to the cabin. Speaking of the cabin, there is nothing better than to go to sleep with the breeze coming in off of Lake Michigan except maybe to wake up to that same breeze. There are stairs that will take you down to the lake A very enjoyable place to stay for the weekend. Cabin is perfect

Cute Cabin

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this cabin. The scenery was beautiful, when you woke up you got a wonderful view of the sunrise from the master bed. It was a little cold when we got there, but the heater worked well and it wasn’t cold anymore. If you are planing on using their wonderful fireplace, just plan on bringing your own wood and kindling, since it’s not provided by the owners. There isn’t a whole lot to do in Jacksonport, but it’s not a very long drive to anything. Overall, great location for a couples getaway :)

Quiet, Rustic Cabin in the Woods

We stayed in late Oct 2024. Cabin is older, but very clean. Was a bit chilly in the main room in the evenings (temps in low to mid 40’s); the heaters seemed to have some trouble keeping up. There is a wood burning fireplace in the main room which would have helped, I’m sure, but we were just there in the evenings and didn’t go to the trouble to build a fire. There is an electric fireplace in the bedroom, so it stayed adequately warm at night. The views were beautiful of the sunrises on Lake Michigan. We were completely charmed by the peninsula, and it was easy as ne quick to get to everything there—both sides of the peninsula. The falll colors, although a little past peak, were still just beautiful in so many places. We loved that restaurants were not chain stuff and were locally owned. All in all we were very pleased with the cabin and the area. Just we’re a little cold on the coldest night we were there.

A nice place to stay

This is a nice property over all. Just rustic enough. The neighbors are quite close though, and the barking dogs do get bothersome. Aside from the water heater not working the morning of our final stay, and a rather snooty text message from the owners, everything worked as it should. There should definitely be a manual or labels on all the lights. I did not receive the digital manual till the last night of our stay when it was emailed with checkout instructions. The only thing that will prevent my girlfriend and I from returning was the mattress. A memory foam mattress combined with the cheapest hotel surplus poly-fill pillows resulted in stiff necks, very uncomfortable sleep, and a near impossible graceful dismount from the bed for my rather large self. A standard mattress would have been much nicer. The property is nice, but I will be doing much more research on the mattress accommodations in the future.

Breathtaking Sunrises

We loved our stay here! It was the perfect quaint cottage. The sunrises were INCREDIBLE, as the cabin sits facing the water. Coupled with the lake breeze and sound of waves through the open windows, there isn’t a better way to enjoy Lake Michigan! The location felt private, as it was off the beaten path in the woods. There are neighbors on both sides, but the property still felt secluded. The beach access at the bottom of the stairs is just for you, not the neighbors! The cabin was very clean which is a must for us. The shower/toilet were spotless and the couch and bed were super comfortable. The hosts are great, and we didn’t have any issues! The only advice to future guests would be to bring some bottled waters if you’re not a fan of groundwater. The temperature was good throughout our stay. No AC as stated in the description, but with the wood structure and multiple windows and fans, it stayed perfectly comfortable. We might have to come back in the winter. I would imagine it would be extra cozy with the two fireplaces and the silence of the snow. In summary, we have nothing but good things to report! Book this place if you’re looking for friendly and reachable hosts, cozy cabin ambience, breathtaking views, and central location to the activities Door County offers.

Misleading marketing photos

Our biggest complaint is the photos shown for this property, which are misleading at best, bordering on deceptive. The photos are obviously very old, as the yard looks nothing like the photos. It is completely overgrown with weeds, bushes and trees, to the point that you can’t even easily get in and out of your vehicle without getting slapped by branches and weeds. You also can’t use the yard for anything because it is so overgrown. The lake views shown in the photos don’t exist due to the overgrown yard, and although the photos make it look like you can go to the beach, you can’t, because the stairs don’t access the beach, they are boarded off at a landing. The bathroom also looks nothing like the photos, because the shower and toilet are completely brown from the iron in the water. You don’t even feel clean when you are done showering because there is no water softener and it smells. We understand that well water does that, but a softener would go a long way. ALSO, this place desperately needs some kind of air conditioning. It was so hot when we got there, and it was so humid outside that opening the windows made the floor so wet that you literally left footprints wherever you went. The front door needs a motion light so when you get back at dark, you can see the key pad. The key pad also doesn’t work on the first try, it took at least two tries every time, which was hard in the dark. The owners were very kind and readily available if needed, so no issues there.

What an amazing cabin in an amazing location! The property was as described(lol maybe better) and fit our needs perfectly!! Close access to all Door County has to offer. The host was VERY responsive! The bed was amazingly comfortable, linens top quality, furniture nice….in a nutshell it wasn’t lacking a thing!! The best part was hearing the waves of Lake Michigan crash on the shore line and feeling the breeze. I would love to stay at this property again!!

Our second stay at the cottage and we still love it! We stayed for 5 days during 90 plus temps, no air conditioning but was supplied with plenty of fans to keep the cottage comfortable. Also, lake breezes cooled the cottage down at night for a good night sleep. Every thing is as described, very quiet and relaxing!

The fireplace in this house was exactly what I needed! What a perfect rental - cozy, comfortable, great location, beautiful view. We loved our short stay here and wished we could have stayed longer. (We did take the advice of another renter and brought an extra blanket. That made the very comfortable bed even better.)

Simplicity at its best!

The perfect, rustic getaway. Fall weather was perfect. We picked up some firewood on our way and read, napped and sat by the lake and fire. It was so restorative. Cabin was perfect for us! Sweet and simple. Maybe being an extra blanket- they came in handy!
