Picture Yourself At Your Get Away Home!
Curl up with a book in front of the wood-burning stove, and play a board game or charades with your family in the open living room. Cook your favorite meals or bake that special dessert you've wanted to for so long, but haven't had the time. Or simply sit, talk, and laugh.
Nestled in a 2.2 wooded acre lot with full Lake Michigan private beach access, just 4 doors down from the home. Spend the day at the beach or walk along the 3 miles of sandy shoreline, ranked as Door County’s preeminent beach by the Chicago Tribune. Stroll down the street which will lead you to Whitefish Dunes State Park. Stroll down the other direction to Bark and Glidden Roads – home to the Glidden Lodge and Donny’s Restaurant. Either way you choose to walk or ride your bike, you will have beautiful beach homes to admire. It’s the perfect place to escape from it all! Ride your bike in peace, take in the fresh country air, and gaze at the night's stars on the large outside porch. Have a peaceful night's sleep listening to the waves crashing on the beach, the wind rushing through the trees, and the deer crackling through the brush.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Prancing Pony

We are a family of 8 (which include 3 grandchildren). We love outdoor activities Door County has to offer - hiking, kayaking, biking, climbing, swimming and exploring. Our home is filled with antiques, folk art and original oil paintings. We continually add special touches to the home. On the outside of the house under each of the eves are hand carved finials.
I grew up in Northwest Illinois and vacationed in Wisconsin with my sisters and brother. We always loved the water and outdoor activites. As an adult, we started taking 2-3 camping trips a year to door county (Potawatomi and Peninsula), loving this unique area so close to home.
We enjoy sharing the home with family and seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces as they explore and relax.

Why they chose this property
When my children were small we used to camp in Door County. It was the perfect place that was close to home with everything we needed - outdoor activities, great beaches and a place to relax. I would take the kids to Whitefish Dunes State Park where they would swim and participate in the kids activities run by the park. We would look down the beach and imagine what it would be like to have property 'down there'. When the the opportunity presented itself to buy a home, I looked all around the Peninsula, found this home and knew it was the one. It reminded me of Switzerland and I instantly fell in love with the craftsmanship and charm of the home, not to mention the area.
Named from Lord of the Rings, The Prancing Pony was a safe haven and place for all walks of life to gather. Our family considers the home to be that special place where all can gather for a peaceful get away. I have been blessed with this beautiful home and love the chance to share it with family, friends and vacationers -- extended friends.
Please sign our guest book and tell us about your trip. I love reading about your adventures.

What makes this property unique
You will love the craftsmanship of the open beam structure and love that went into building this home by the original owner who was a carpenter. The home is filled with antiques, folk art and original oil paintings.
We love going to bed listening to the waves and waking up in the morning looking at the beautiful architecture. It is so relaxing to sit on the large porch and read a book or stare up at the night sky and watch for satellites and falling stars. We take walks several times a day down the beach, down the street or on the many trails in the state park. People of all ages and their dogs love the beach -- there's simply nothing like it. The sandbars make it a lot of fun to walk way out and only be knee deep. The lake is different each day and ever day is a new adventure.
Bed linens and towels are provided, unlike properties managed by other rental companies.
