Window AC, if needed in summer (rarely) and baseboard heat, if needed in fall. Partial view of Lake Michigan from cottage.

Walk into town to check out the marina, where you can charter a fishing boat. Easy walking distance to shops and a handful of restaurants and coffee shops. Off-street parking available directly next to cottage. For a greater variety of shops and restaurants, drive 10-15 minutes to Egg Harbor, Fish Creek, Ephraim and Sister Bay on the Green Bay side of the Peninsula. Three 18-hole golf courses and one 9-hole course are within short drives. Door County is great for cycling.

Great Stay in Door County

The cottage was in a great location, very near a beach. It had everything we needed. We grilled out and enjoyed a fire on the property. The owners sent us all the info we needed ahead of time, and we had a very nice stay.

Nice place to land

We spent 3 days in Door County site seeing. This was our landing zone, mainly at night. It suited us just fine for our needs. Fun little cottage in walking distance to the park for sunrise.

Our Trip to Door County

This was our first time to Wisconsin and for that matter the Midwest and the beautiful Heartland of America. The cottage was so convenient to all the beautiful sites in Door County and I am sure I witnessed a true Hallmark experience. There were 3 of us from FL, AZ, IL and having Lake Michigan right in the back yard was perfect. We enjoyed our coffee morning at the cottage and then relaxing after full days of touring. It was just perfect.

Delightful stay

We had a delightful time during our stay. We were impressed by how clean and comfortable the cottage was. We wanted to be away from the frenzied activity in the cities on the Bay side of the Peninsula and this place was exactly what we were looking for. It was close to the many features of Bailey's Harbor and the surrounding area and a short drive to areas of interest in the rest of the Peninsula. We had an issue with the TV losing its satellite signal so we called the owners and they responded immediately. We were able to contact the satellite company and the issue was resolved quickly. We highly recommend this place and would rent it again.

Great location right in Baileys Harbor

Nice to be across the street from the shore and be able to walk to all the conveniences of town. Great price still for a two bedroom with also a full kitchen and not be stuck in the woods. Central location made it easy to get to Fish Creek as well as to head to points north (Newport State Park and Gills Rock). Jacksonport just next door for the Memorial Day Maifest activities. Nice hiking in the Ridges Sanctuary in town and finding it to be bug free. A collection of board games gave us a source of entertainment during the rains that came. A scooter got my daughter excited about exploring the street and eventually into town to the Yum Yum Tree for candy. Bailey's 57 is closeby for your convenience store needs. We didn't cook any meals at the cottage but did find it stocked enough so that we could comfortably have breakfast each morning and cobbled meals from leftovers. While the cottage is small, every square foot is used smartly and the furniture vintage and nicer than it needs to be for a vacation getaway - allowing you to enjoy the time relaxing there rather than making you feel that you needed to get out.

‘ I’ve been trying to talk to an agent but no luck! I was at the property at Bailey’s harbor yesterday! When I entered the property and settled in the amount of flies in the cottage was unbelievable! I must have killed 30 flies the first hour. Thinking it was just the weather change and I had taken care of it we went to dinner. Arriving back to the cottage and wanting to chill the flies again were all over. Landing on our drinks, landing on us and flying all over. So again with the fly swatter we managed to kill about 15! During the night I was woken up by flies landing on my face and flying around my ears. In the morning there were at least another 20 flies landing on the counter coffee maker and our coffee cups. We just couldn’t stay another night. When I contacted the host her response was that had never happened before. I explained that the window air conditioner was not sealed properly and you could see outside! But she only responded with that has never happened before. We ended up leaving because all we were doing was swooshing flies away. We had a check in at 4:00pm and dealt with the problem, and then went to breakfast when we got back to the cottage flies were in the sink on the walls and on the coffee maker. So we were not even there 24 hours and we couldn’t stand the flies. Is there any way I could get the second day refunded for this inconvenience of flies? And this was not a lake property!

Loved our trip. Our only negative was we thought it could have been cleaner and that it was odd we had to bring our own sheets and towels. Otherwise it was really convenient to everything.

Convenient and quiet

Owners were available, andconginial, open to any needs we had. Cottage was clean, comfortable and quiet. Great place to rest your head and relax between adventures. Perfect spot for central stay in Baileys Harbor, short (1/2 mile) walking distance to several restaurants and downtown area. Sway brewing and bakery was our favorite, and the Cornerstone Pub was good and fair priced also.

Spacious!

I really enjoyed our stay. I liked the cottage was so close to walking to all the small shops on main street. Because it is set on a hill, the traffic noise was null. My daughter thought it was "pretty awesome". One word of caution to visitors in the area. We stayed mid-October and most places were switching off summer hours to winter hours so a lot of places were closed mid-week. Has no impact on this rental, just an FYI if you travel this time of year like we do. I wasn't aware of that but we just changed course and found other things to do and see.

Great location for walking into Bailey’s Harbor. Internally property was super clean and had what we needed for a short stay. The check in situation was a little unclear and fridge was off. Owners responded promptly and talked us through getting in.

Great location near to everything and walking distance to park and church. Quaint cottage and very responsive owners. We had a little mishap with the cleaning lady not coming before our stay but the owners were very kind about it and said they would be sending us a check to refund the cleaning fee. Great overall stay and the kids loved the hammock and being in Door County. Within driving distance of all of the harbors.

Not fancy but comfortable

Terry’s little cabin has most everything that you need and is in a quiet location on the quiet side of Door County. Lake Michigan is a short walk from the house and Anclam Park is very nice. This is minor but getting a drain for the sink would make doing dishes easier. We also missed having WiFi since our cell company doesn’t have much coverage in door county. Overall a pleasant place to stay with comfortable beds and central location.

Good Value

Good location, within close walking distance to everything Bailey’s Harbor has to offer. The cottage is a good value - charming, small, and well-loved but had everything we needed. Our 2 and 3 year old kids enjoyed the playground in the north end of town. Friday fish fry at the Cornerstone Pub was great.
