This is a very cute little house in a very nice neighborhood. Close to Walmart and there’s a wonderful park that you can walk to right down the street. It’s also very convenient to get to all of the things you want to see in Door County.Everything I needed for a comfortable stay was right here and the owner was easily accessible via the email on the vrbo app. If you’re looking for comfortable lodging, I highly recommend this place.

Our stay was overall really enjoyable, and the location was perfect as a place to adventure out into Door County. The main hiccup was the air conditioning situation. The setup is pretty impermanent, and since it only cools the living room, it's apparently been moved around enough that it's no longer sturdy. The duct tape holding it to the window was falling apart when we arrived, and running the unit tripped the outlet it was in. The owner replied promptly to messages and send someone over to fix it right away, but the outlet problem was never really resolved. We had to reset the outlet about once each day. All this to say, the space would be perfect during a cooler week, but they should probably invest in more AC units or central air, and address the energy draw issue.

Cute Little House

This is a cute little house that has been nicely remodeled. There is a nice deck out back, where we enjoyed our morning coffee and ate dinner. The kitchen was the most well equipped kitchen I have ever had in a short term rental. The host was very helpful, and quickly responded to any requests.

Great Getaway!

Kenny, the Property Manager, is wonderful to work with! And the home is extremely comfortable -- quiet, comfortable rooms and furniture, clean, and extremely well-appointed. The kitchen is terrific! Kenny has paid attention to details to create a very inviting home. His communication is top notch and he made sure that all of our questions and concerns were addressed. This is a perfect getaway for two, or a small family, looking for easy access to Door County, and for getting to know Sturgeon Bay. A+!
