Ephraim cottage

We loved our time spent here. The cottage was clean and the perfect size for our two-person getaway (could also fit up to 7 comfortably), had everything we needed, and was in a great location! Our hosts were easy to communicate with and very helpful/friendly. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to anyone who is looking for a fun and scenic trip to Door County! We are returning refreshed and rejuvenated.

Quite and convenient

Out of the way of all the crowds but close enough to easily walk to stores, beach and restaurants. Communication with owners was terrific. Cottage was great, perfect setup for small family. Loved that kayaks, kayak carts and equipment were available for us to use, only a short walk to beach. Definitely stay here again.

Marathon weekend stay!

Had a great stay at the Harbor House cottage! We were in town for a half marathon at Peninsula Park which was less then two miles! The place was clean and felt welcoming! We will be back in the future and will hopefully have a chance to use the kayaks, fire pit and gazebo all available for use!!!!

Super clean, comfy, and cute! We loved this rental - from sitting in the screened in porch, to walking to local shops, to cooking in the well equipped kitchen. The owners made sure to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Would recommend 100%

Excellent Fall Get Away!

This cottage had the best location in Door County. We could walk to the town. A Very short walk to Lake Michigan and beautiful sunsets. Peninsula State Park was only 3 miles away . The owners were fabulous with our check in! I would highly recommend this quaint cottage with a beautiful gazebo to enjoy nature. Every night the owls were hooting away…..

So close, and yet so far away!

This charming little cottage in Ephraim is less than a 7-minute walk from the town beach and less than a mile from Wilson's Ice Cream parlor. Even though it's just off the main drag, the setting is surprisingly quiet and peaceful. The screened porch and fire pit make it extra special.
