It was nice and clean. The kitchen was good, if a bit short on prep space. The bathrooms were nice and big. The fire pit outside was the best part. The only downside was trying to organise early and late checkout. They made me write back for each request rather than make a note to get back to me. I would definitely stay again.

This home is in a great location near Ephraim and Peninsula State park. The home is old but has been updated nicely. It was awesome to have our dog stay with us. The beds were comfortable, the towels were nice and the amenity kits were helpful. It was the perfect home for out short stay.

Good home base for traveling around door county. Similar to the previous review, we had issues with the upstairs bathroom sink actually draining. Otherwise, no issues

Property was nice, clean and comfortable. Entry instruction should include going to the front door to use the code rather than the side door which the key pad does not work and is the 1st door you see when pulling in the driveway. Upstairs bathroom sink drains so slow you cant use it for much. Otherwise nice place and location. we explored much of Door county from there.
