Wonderful Door County Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Three Little Birds. The cottage was absolutely beautiful. The amenities were fantastic even for our dog. We loved how tastefully decorated the cottage was, and how they left instructions/stickers on how to use everything. We felt at home, and we cannot wait to return to this cottage. Thank you!

Door County Family Vacation

We had a family gathering with adult children, my 90 year old dad, plus two dogs, and the house was perfect. The kitchen is well stocked, and we loved the various porches and outdoor spaces for relaxing. Beautiful location in the woods, a short walk to the water, great for running, and a short drive to all the nearby towns. The fire pit in the back was awesome. I highly recommend this property!

Amazing!!!!

Three Little Birds was a perfect place for our family to vacation in Door County! Unfortunately our Jamaican vacation was canceled due to hurricane Beryl. We were able to quickly grab this amazing property and feel so lucky it was somehow available last minute. The setting was beautiful!!! The home was immaculate and had anything and everything you could possibly need on your vacation! The owners truly want you to have the best vacation and for you to be comfortable in their home. Seriously couldn’t have asked for a better spot!!!! Highly recommend!

Great stay!

Three Birds is a lovely house, very comfortable for our group of two adults and five teens. The house is well appointed with everything we needed and the space was really great for board games, movies and porch time plus good proximity to all Door County has to offer. Easy communication with the management team, too. Five stars all around!

Great property with extra care

We loved our stay at Three Little Birds! We had to cancel in January due to a snowstorm and they were very accommodating finding us another weekend. The place was very well maintained and they provided tons of wood for us to use per our request! The coffee mugs left for us to keep was such a nice touch! Had a great time. Would 10//10 recommend!

Girls retirement getaway

Myself and 4 friends who have all retired within the last year decided to celebrate with a mini girls vacay.. the house was more beautiful then the pictures, extremely clean and comfortable. There was enough room for all 5 of us to have a own beds, we did not want to leave. The only thing i could recommend would be handles to get into shower. Was a wonderful time at your beautiful 3 little birds house.

Door County Vacation with Family

Check in was a problem since the door code we were given didn't work. With little to no cell service, we were only able to get management help because a member of our party was an IT person who figured out how to get a signal for a short time. The second night a plumbing problem occurred. Again, the lack of cell service made contacting management a real problem. Eventually, the issue was conveyed and a plumber arrived the next morning. He commented that modifications were made to the toilets, which he believed contributed to the problem. We noticed that in previous guests' comments, some also had plumbing problems. For our group, the sleeping arrangements weren't ideal. Other than that we had fun.
