Fantastic!

We loved this property! Spacious, open, comfortable furniture, clean, beautiful quiet setting, exactly as pictured. A well stocked kitchen, updated appliances, washer and dryer, comfortable beds/spacious rooms with plenty of storage, games, puzzles, movies, books, and extra blankets. Plenty of bathroom necessities. Above and beyond with information about the home as well as options during your stay. Everything we needed, at our fingertips. Responsive. We really enjoyed this part of Door County. So many options within the surrounding communities without the crowds/car traffic of lower D.C. We would highly recommend this booking! A marvelous stay enjoyed by the whole family.

Amazing Find in north Door County

From the moment we arrived, the entire family loved the house - even our teenage grandchildren exclaimed! We were very comfortable as the house has a warm, welcoming feeling. The kids enjoyed the sunroom area and we all enjoyed the living room and the deck for family time. The kitchen was well-appointed and had all the necessities to make meals. The bedrooms were comfortable and we slept well. Also, we appreciated being able to do laundry during our stay. We are hoping that next summer we are able to travel to Door County again and will definitely stay here if we return.

Late Summer

Our second trip to this cozy home in the woods. Last trip was for Winter fun in February. This time we came in the second week of September thinking we would have summer temperatures. It was fall like temps, colors were just starting. This is a wonderful location if you like nature and relaxed feel and slower pace. Also nothing is far if you want to visit more shops,etc. in fish creek. We took the ferry to Washington Island and enjoyed that day trip a lot. Also there is hiking and night sky viewing at Newport State Park. The home is exactly as advertised very clean, very comfortable. We just love the tranquil vibe here. Thanks again for hosting us!

Amazing cozy house in the woods!

Our family loved our 5-day stay at Arica's house in the woods! The house itself is gorgeous and cozy and so, so cool! The sunroom is amazing - it was especially fun to sit out there one afternoon and listen to the rain on the skylights! The table is nice and big, such a great gathering space for meals and games. And the living room is so cool with the high beamed ceiling. Appreciated all the little touches, like having cozy throw blankets, and the very well stocked kitchen with all the utensils, etc. we needed to make meals. My favorite of all the favorite parts, is the outdoor patio with the table & chairs surrounded by tall trees - it feels like you're a million miles away from everything, and yet it's a super easy drive to everything we wanted to do! Thank you Arica so much for creating such a magical place for a getaway!

Wonderful get away and super cute cabin!

We really enjoyed our stay in Door County. We went for a fishing trip and the cabin was very welcoming to come back to. Had all the amenities we needed and enjoyed our stay very much. Cute cabin nestled in a very secluded and wooded neighborhood with great fireplace to sit around and visit with our friends. Wonderful host, very responsive and readily available. Will definitely be coming back!!

What a great house for our needs this particular week. We had plenty of room for all our family of five to enjoy each other and get away from each other as desired. Kitchen has every tool and dish and pan you could want for cooking for a group. Close to the bay and on the quiet side of the Peninsula. Would stay here again if the occasion arose.

Comfortable secluded retreat

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very comfortable with plenty of space. A lot of thought went into making this a comfortable home away from home. There were plenty of consumables such as paper products, coffee filters, detergents, shampoos, etc. Additionally items like tea, coffee, various spices, and cooking oils, were also there. I can't say that these are promised items, but had we forgotten something it was thoughtful that they were there. It snowed while we were there and snow removal was great. If it had been summer we could have used either the charcoal or the gas grill. Instead, we enjoyed the fireplace in the living room as well as watching it snow while hanging out in the four-seasons room. The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/silverware/utensils. There were enough of all of these that we didn't have to run the dishwasher after every meal. These aren't the kinds of things that show up in a property description, but they are the kinds of things that make a stay extra comfortable and worry free. It shows someone going above and beyond to create a good experience. If you are looking for a place in northern Door county we recommend giving this place a look.

Beautiful home nestled in the woods of Door Co.

Quiet and peaceful, tucked into the woods in Door Co. This home offers you a warm and inviting place to stay. The Kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. The high ceiling invites you into the family room where you can enjoy a nice fire in the fireplace. We really enjoyed the four season room. It has a heated floor and the windows give you a panoramic view of the wooded area around the house. The bedrooms are nice size and the beds are very comfortable. The house was very clean and communication with Arica was Awesome. We would definitely go back!

Winter getaway

If you are looking for a peaceful comfortable getaway this rental is perfect. There were only two of us so we did not use the upstairs bedrooms. The master bedroom in main level bed was very comfortable. As is the whole house, fireplace, 4 season room. We were there for nature, snowshoeing, a few dinners and the area and home were perfect for that. Also visited the winter fest in fish creek, great hiking at Newport State Park, took a sleigh ride- it was great! We could have used another few days of it! Thank you to our host who stayed in easy contact- although we had no issues.

Our family has rented this cozy cabin for many years, and we hope to do so for many more. It is extremely well appointed with comfortable couches and beds. The kitchen far exceeds my kitchen at home. This is an exceptional home for any season, but we especially appreciate it during the quiet winter season when we bring out the puzzles and hot chocolate!

Retirement Celebration in Door County

My family joined me in Door County to celebrate my retirement after 43 years as a physical therapist. There were 6 of us & this property in Ellison Bay provided the perfect getaway. There were 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms with comfortable furnishings. The woodland setting was relaxing & we enjoyed the antics of the squirrels & birds at the feeders. The kitchen was well provisioned with cookware & gadgets & spices which made making a few meals There quite easy. There was plenty of room in the great room with TV & Wi-Fi that worked perfectly. The house was located a very short walk from the water at Rowley's Bay & very near to Grandma's Swedush Bakery for cardamom coffee cakes for breakfast in the morning. There was a washer & dryer in the premises which was very convenient. All in all this was a fantastic property & I highly recommend it.
