Our home is all about bringing the outdoors in, but we also have a fantastic outdoor space for you to enjoy during all four seasons. There’s a wooden deck along the lake’s edge with handmade Adirondack chairs and a 36″ fire pit – perfect for evening s’mores or early morning cups of coffee.

In the summer, you can launch your kayaks and canoes directly off our shore, and the deck has plenty of spots for sitting back and enjoying the solitude of your surroundings. Enjoy privacy and comfort with your family on a night in while hearing the sizzle of a burger or a steak on the propane grill. 

We are 10 minutes from the town of Jacksonport, a darling community north of us, with a charming downtown. Jacksonport has a beautiful sandy beach and a classic playground for kids. There is also Town Hall Bakery, the most down-home bakery you can imagine.

Across the peninsula, just 20 minutes away is Egg Harbor. Egg Harbor has long been one of the most visited and desirable towns in northern Door County for shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Also, our favorite boutique home goods store, Maxwell House, is a must.

Just 15 minutes north of us is Baileys Harbor, a bustling town with fabulous restaurants, coffee shops, cool shops and is home to Door County Brewery, that has live music, great food in the high season, and friendly people.

Last but not least, you’ll be staying within 25 minutes of the bustling town of Sister Bay. Sister Bay is often thought of as the busiest and most attractive town in northern Door County. Sister Bay is home to tons of restaurants, bars, ice cream shops, and is famous across the world for being home to Al Johnson’s Swedish Restaurant and Boutique which features a unique grass roof with goats on the roof. 

While staying with us, you’ll be quickly within reach of all the best tourist attractions of northern Door County, while still maintaining your own privacy and waking up to the sounds of waves crashing against the shores of Lake Michigan.

 

The stunning common areas are a joy to relax in, thanks to the high ceilings, exposed wood, and slate floors that seamlessly blend the indoor space with the outdoor surroundings.

Our open floor plan allows you to cook while you interact with those at the dining room table or in the living room, making this the perfect spot for connecting with loved ones.

The kitchen has everything you’ll need for cooking tasty meals for the whole family, and you can enjoy stunning views of Lake Michigan as you do so. We’ve provided pots, pans, dishes, spices, olive oil, paper products, a coffee maker (standard drip Cuisinart), a mini food processor, a blender, a toaster, a microwave, utensils, a knife set, and more! We often have holidays at the house so we’ve tried to think of all the things a family needs to prepare meals at home. We also have a propane Weber grill just outside the kitchen if you enjoy grilling. If you are wondering if we have a particular kitchen item, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Once it comes time to eat, you can enjoy meals together around the handcrafted dining room table. If you’d like more seating, we have a card table you can add on to expand seating from 6 to 8. There is a sunny breakfast nook that overlooks the yard and water beyond, which is a great place to sip your morning coffee and watch for hummingbirds.

Across from the kitchen and dining area, the cathedral ceiling living room beckons with its comfortable furniture and Door County stone two-story fireplace. It has a propane starter for natural wood and our caretaker stocks nice dry wood right next to the fireplace. We replaced the furniture in 2020 and when doing so, we added an extra couch so the family can spread out in comfort. Next to the fireplace, you’ll see a pen and ink watercolor of the shoreline drawn by my Uncle, an accomplished artist. There’s no better spot for hanging out as a family, making plans for an exciting day around Door County, or simply relaxing as the sun or moon rises over the lake.

The upper-level loft is where you’ll go to enjoy fun movie nights. This is our entertainment center, complete with a Smart TV and more comfy furniture. We have Netflix, Amazon Prime, and YouTube TV for your favorite sports, adventures, and shows. The loft converts to a 4th bedroom or playroom for the kids.
