Wonderful clean house
We felt very at home at the big and easy house. So close to downtown Sturgeon bay too, very easy to walk to nearby shops and restaurants. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone coming to visit the area!

Great stay in Door County
We stayed here with a large group for the Door County Triathlon weekend. The house was spacious, clean, and comfortable. A great spot to enjoy a Door County weekend!

Nice but…..
Okay property but only had a dirty, small (dorm room size) refrigerator which we discovered upon check in. We intended to have at least half of our meals there so we had to continually get ice for a cooler we bought. This small frig was in the floor so I’m still in a knee brace from squatting down so very many times to get into the small refrigerator. I would not have booked if I had known there wasn’t a frig and they didn’t tell us until I contacted them after we arrived. They gave us a discount that I thought was very small considering all the trouble we had of buying ice over and over and bending down all the time to get into the small refrigerator.
They also sent a repair person to try to fix it so we vacated the house for hours so they could work on it. They couldn’t fix it.
The house was fine but I definitely wouldn’t stay here or want to deal with this rental property company again.
I also didn’t think it was in a great location,
A huge disappointment!

Reunion weekend
This home is lovely. Very spacious and the beds are unbelievably comfortable. Great patio area, although neighbors are close. There is plenty of parking and even an apple tree on the property. We had a lovely stay and the hosts were very responsive.
