' Peace in the Pines '
Privately nested in the woods, yet less than a mile from downtown Bailey's Harbor's restaurants, shops, and the only full service marina on lake Michigan. Attn. fishermen, our driveway can handle your boat trailer. Also in close proximity to Kangaroo Lake, 2 Baileys Harbor cozy beaches, and a 30 acre recreational park which features kids playground, horseshoes, bocce ball, baseball etc., just down the road(we provide horseshoe and bocce ball games, in screen porch).
Family vacations, gathering with friends or small men or women's retreat, are just a few possible uses for this very private, quiet and peaceful location.
The great room features 2 sofa beds, 1 nestled behind a stained glass wall (another nook perfect for reading or just to get away from the crowd) and the other in the main seating area. Beautiful hickory floors, cozy gas stove, and ceiling fans throughout. Spacious rustic design, 1 master bedroom, queen bed, w/french doors for privacy, two full, 1 bunk bed in loft(see below).
The large open loft has plenty of headroom and extra floor space that looks into the two-story great room below. Featuring a sky lite, two full beds, beautiful custom bunk bed and half bath. Also, a cozy nook with a leather love seat and floor lamp... perfect for reading!
Full bath at end of hallway which features a large and luxurious custom 2-head shower stall with glass door and built in bench seat - enjoy!
WiFi, Wall mounted 42'' flat screen Satellite HD TV, w/ DVD player for hours of family/friends entertainment.
All modern amenities with fully equipped kitchen also (HE)Washer/Dryer, w laundry detergent.
For your outdoor enjoyment, the home also features a furnished screened in porch (bug free!) adjacent to a spacious, large furnished front deck, and a side deck with beautiful built in custom seating and tables; offering added living space during the warmer months for just soaking in the sun or enjoying the cool night air, also for your outdoor enjoyment is a park style charcoal grill off of the side deck.
End your evening by taking in a meditative wood burning fire with family and friends using our outside wood fireplace attached to the patio for safe burning.

About the host
Hosted by Rick Ochoa
My wife and I who live in Waukegan, Il. decided to build a cabin in Door County because as kid I used to spend my summers on Washington Island, (also in Door County), where my Grandma was born, and we both grew to love Door County as a whole.
The time and extra expense it takes to get there though, started to become prohibitive for us, so our trips/ vacations to the island eventually became farther and farther apart, even though that is where my heart is.

Why they chose this property
On our few trips to the island in later years I always enjoyed traveling on the east side (Hwy 57) because I always felt it had a little more unspoiled beauty, and offered a more balanced mix of activities vs. peace and quiet. But you can always drive staight west for 15-20 minutes to the west side, if you want to added activity. Baileys Harbor seemed to be the perfect spot, so we started to rent there.
One day it dawned on me, because of my 32 years of being in the construction trade as an electrician, to take my savings and buy a property in Baileys Harbor, then general contract the building of a vacation rental. Then hopefully it will eventually come close to paying for itself and I can use it once and awhile too. And maybe even make it back to the island once and a while.

What makes this property unique
As we explained in the description at the top of this web page we feel that we ended up building a really attractive, welcoming and peaceful vacation rental with a lot of special touchs inside and out, (thanks to the excellent workmanship of Paul LeClair, Hibbards Creek Log Homes & other capable Door Co. contractors) so that you will feel at home in it like we do.
I think the extra touches we thought of as we went along during the building process will add up to more fun for you, and as we start renting more hopefully we can add to it here and there.
