Group consensus: Great place to stay!!The property had a great open space where we could all hang out and plenty of space so you could "break away" from the group if you needed "alone" time. The kids and adults alike liked the outdoor space... room to run, throw a football, etc. We really liked the location! So easy to get to wherever in Door County.

Charming home in a great location!

I owned a home in Ephraim for over 30 years, and now come each year with 3 friends for a golf weekend. We've rented many homes, and this is the nicest we've stayed in. Clean as a pin, nicely decorated, and well appointed, we will be back!

A perfect family getaway

Manistique Stone Cottage was a great place for the family to gather. This cozy and unique property provided the perfect home base for parents, children, and grandchildren to gather after being apart for over a year due to covid. We were able to reconnect and build family memories in a beautiful and comfortable home that is perfectly located to enjoy the activities Door County offers.

Cottage Stay

The cottage was clean and well appointed. Our family enjoyed our stay. The cottage and its furnishings were rustic and enjoyable. Having 5 children under the age of 10 gave us some challenges as the furnishings in the cottage were somewhat fragile. As the cottage is heated with fuel oil, there was a slight fuel oil odor in the kitchen and mud room areas. It was our only complaint.

Wonderful idyllic stone cottage

What a sweet place!! So clean and well decorated! We loved having coffee every morning on the porch! Great central location to all activities. Some street noise but not problematic and dissipated at night! Pillows were SO comfy! Everything worked well and was in good repair. Obviously a well loved cottage!

Generally a very nice place

We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the cottage . A bit musty smelling but otherwise very clean. Possible fireplace ashes might have been the cause of the musty smell. We ran out of paper towels. The setting is very rustic and beautiful.

Perfect for a family

This was the perfect place for our family to stay. Plenty of space, beds, and chairs outside. Very close to state park. The fire pit was perfect. One issue was there were no extra blankets and it got chilly at night. Just a sheet and thin quilt on each bed. We also had to buy garbage bags since the box that was left was empty. Other than these 2 things it really was perfect for all of us.

Beautiful, historic home

We had a wonderful stay in this home! Three different families stayed and there was plenty of room for all of us. Living room and screen porch were delightful and the kids LOVED the bunk room, including the excellent selection of children’s books. The outside space was also fantastic. Lots of room for kids to run around. There were a few places where the house was not quite as clean as we would have liked, but it’s also a very old home in the woods with tons of character, so some dust, dirt, and bugs was to be expected. Overall we would highly recommend this rental and hope to stay again next summer!

Charming house. Bedrooms very large. Beds were ok. Charcoal grill, would have been nice to have a large regular grill. Huge back yard. No outdoor lights to light the yard, those were not working. The dryer did not work very efficient. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Was great family time. Prolly wouldn't stay again unless the price was less.

Cozy house in a great location!

We had a great experience with this stone cottage. We were pleasantly surprised by the home and property. It was a perfect size for two families- 4 adults and 5 kids. The house was older but nicely updated and clean. It was well stocked with linens and kitchenware. It was a chilly fall weekend and we enjoyed the giant fireplace in the cottage each night. The kids loved the bunk bed rooms and had fun playing in their rooms and especially in the backyard and forest. This property is literally connected to Peninsula state park! Communication with the property manager was super easy and friendly. We would definitely recommend this property.

Property is lovely, both inside the cottage and outdoors. The amenities listed in the information about the property were not consistently available: no hair dryer, coffee pot didn’t work, one dish towel for 14 people for a 4 day stay, one hand towel is inadequate especially with the importance of hand washing in a pandemic. We’d have liked a mixer in the kitchen and some large serving bowls. Ants were a problem in the kitchen.
