We had a great stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect for exploring Door County, while still being a nice place to come back and relax at the end of the day. The hosts were also very responsive and helpful. We really enjoyed our weekend and would definitely stay here again!

The house was very cozy. The location was okay but it was a little farther from all of the activities than desired - the house appeared way more roomier in the pictures than it actually was. The upstairs was way too hot and the air conditioner was not present for us to use. We had 8 guests, and not enough towels for everyone to shower. The firepit is a great asset, however, the chairs were absolutely filthy. They had bird poo on them and were covered in spider webs. We had to clean them before we could use. Not ideal, as we expected ready to use and not something we had to get user ready. Said we could use Kayaks, etc., but everything was locked up, there was one kayak not locked up. The house was clean, but it had a musty smell. The communication on property rules, check out, were easy to understand, prompt and clear. However, I think it was a little spendy for what was actually provided.

The perfect Midwest getaway location for our East Coast and West Coast families to meet. Unexpectedly delightful. Awesome sunsets and fire pit. $4 a bundle firewood all over town. Host was very responsive.
