An absolute hidden gem tucked away at the top of the peninsula! The cottage itself is incredibly cozy and so thoughtful, with delightful little touches in every nook and cranny. And the outdoor space truly can’t be beat — sweeping views of Green Bay, Adirondack chairs on the private dock, and a fire pit for post-sunset fun. Our stay was quiet, restorative, and even better than we’d hoped. We can’t wait to come back!

Enjoyed the peace and quiet. The pump system in the bathroom took a little getting used to, but not a problem. Definitely for those who need or want to get away and relax.

This property was so cute and comfortable for four adults, with two of us on the main floor and two in the loft! The window AC unit cooled us down well in the summer weather and having access to firewood and outdoor space was awesome.

Small cozy pet-friendly house, styled in shabby chic, reclaimed furnishing a nice touch. The bathroom plumbing was not was adequate, shower pan filled up quickly, really short showers, due to small emacerator plumbing combo, was not aware when booking. It was an inexpensive stay compared to other VRBO properties in the area. If rustic is what you’re looking for this is it. The hosts were very pleasant.

We’ve been going to Dora County for about eight years now and this is by far the absolute best place we have ever stayed. Jen is a fabulous host. Accommodations were amazing and if you’re wanting privacy, this is truly the most beautiful place. It’s right between Gills Rock and Ellison Bay, which is two of our favorite places to be. I highly recommend this place.

This property was super clean and in a beautiful location away from the hustle of busy Door County. The kitchen was nicely equipped, but we couldn't find any measuring cups. I bought some at Piggly Wiggly and left them for the next guest. The kitchen and living room furniture could use some updates as they are pretty well worn and not very comfortable. Beds were comfy and I think we all slept well. Over all we enjoyed our stay and family experience.
Sunset from the pier.

Small but cozy cottage on a beautiful property on Garrett Bay near Gills Rock. Serene and quiet while we were there. Great access to the northern part of the peninsula.
