Our family had a fantastic gathering here. Many special amenities such as location, Pickleball court, comfortable sleeping, parking, etc. We planned to cook our meals because we didn’t want to take little ones out to eat. We were frustrated with kitchen appliances and organization.

Spacious and beautiful

The Log Retreat is spacious, inside and out, in a beautiful setting and great location. It accommodated our family well with a well equipped kitchen, very good beds and many onsite activities including pickleball, ping pong and a pool table. We were delighted with how it suited our family’s needs and we enjoyed our stay.

Great location, lots of space

We loved watching the Deer with their babies in the meadow in front of the cabin. Everyone had their own space and the sound proofing is fantastic to allow our teens and young adults to stay up a little later than the adults!! Close to town and highway 42 for easy access to all that Door County has to offer.

Leadership retreat

The property was beautiful and perfect for our leadership retreat. There were multiple spaces that we could do small breakout groups, the bonfire pit and fireplace were amazing gathering spaces. Overall, my team of 18 really enjoyed themselves! Also, plenty of space for everyone to have their own bed.

Peaceful Paradise

Our extended family (10, all adults) stayed here to celebrate our parents’ 60th anniversary. Home perfectly accommodated us all with room for many more! We found everything we needed while there. The setting is fantastic and we especially enjoyed the deck, fire pit, pickle ball court, and dining table that fit us all. So peaceful yet so close to all the activity in Fish Creek. Highly recommend.

Great Stay

We had a great stay overall. The code did not work upon check-in, but a phone call fixed that pretty easily. A bag of dirty towels was left right outside the front door. We cleaned the grill when we got there, but it caught fire. Fire extinguisher was empty/inoperable, but we had a fire blanket. Everything else was great. Beautiful space. Great location.

Family vacation

We were very excited about this property from the pictures and reviews but it was disappointing. It was in a beautiful setting and the location was perfect for biking in the park. We did enjoy the fire pit and pickleball court. Here is what needs attention: wasp nests under porch by pickleball court, coffee maker needs to be replaced or cleaned, the kitchen faucet nozzle needs to be replaced, throw rugs were stained and dirty, the dehumidifier in the basement did not work so it it was musty and damp making it very unpleasant sleeping in the two bedrooms, the basement bathroom ceiling has water stains and mold, sheets on the basement beds were very thin, and the towels for basement bathroom were worn, some of the bedspreads were stained and dirty, and so many light bulbs need to be replaced. I hope that these issues can be addressed and that the house gets a good cleaning. It is a beautiful property.

Family vacation

We loved the pickleball court, the fire pit and the size of the house. But, there is a pretty strong mildew odor in the house, plus there are no shades or blinds for any of the windows and you can’t lock the doors. The kitchen sink wasn’t clean and the whole place was dusty. Several things were broken, like the door screens, lamp shades, etc. We also could not get the TVs working. Other than those few things, we had a fabulous time!

Batting 1000

The property was well laid out and designed. Billiards, ping pong and pickleball were all accessible and fun. The cabin was a bit dirty with stained carpet, high humidity, spider webs and old bedspreads and couch pillows. Two nights before we left, a bat was loose in the house! The owner was responsive and immediately sent out an inspector who was followed the next morning (after a sleepless night) by repairmen who sealed a crack between the brick masonry of the fireplace and the ceiling where the bats were able to get in. I would not rent this place again unless I was assured it was clean and updated.

Enjoyable, spacious and entertaining property

This property is a great place for a large family or extended family. There are many bedrooms and it is quite spacious for all to gather. There is plenty of entertainment with a pool table in the basement, a pickleball court and a volleyball court outdoors. The garage holds a corn hole game and tennis table for more fun. We thoroughly enjoyed the pickleball court and had a family tournament. We also enjoyed the bar downstairs and play multiple card games. There is plenty of refrigerator and freezer space. The only faults are that one of the coffee maker's did not work, the kitchen sink faucet was partially broken and there isn't any air conditioning in the entire unit. There area bedroom air conditioners in 2 of the bedrooms upstairs and the master bedroom downstairs but they do not cover the entire place. Most of the time it was not a problem, since there are windows that can be opened. One last small thing was the knives were not sharp at all. Overall though, this place was wonderful!

Rating: 3/10Check-in was easy, and the property’s location is quiet with beautiful starry nights. Unfortunately, the home itself was in very poor condition and made our stay uncomfortable.When we arrived, the house was dusty and dirty, with hundreds of flies throughout the main floor. Many lightbulbs were out, and several lamp shades were torn or broken. The kitchen was in rough shape — the faucet barely worked, the cabinets were damaged, and most dishes and appliances needed to be cleaned before use. The basement had a strong mildew and mold smell that made it unusable.There were no shades in any of the bedrooms, which made it difficult to sleep, and both the TV and Wi-Fi were not functional during our stay. Outdoor railings were broken, the landscaping was overgrown, and the overall upkeep of the property felt neglected.While the host was responsive and kind, the home simply wasn’t in good condition. Door County is known for its beauty and relaxing atmosphere, and this property didn’t reflect that experience. With a deep clean, repairs, and proper maintenance, it could eventually become a great place to stay — but as of now, it needs significant attention before hosting guests again.
