Host profile image
We love Door County and look forward to sharing it with you!

Why they chose this property

We love our location because it is close to everything we want to do. It is quiet and close to nature and the lake but minutes from restaurants, beaches, shopping and groceries.

What makes this property unique

Our place has plenty of space to spread out and an abundance of bathrooms! I love feeling like the windows bring the outside in and seeing ducks, turkeys and deer. It is thrilling to hear coyotes in the distance and barred owls and ruffed grouse!
