Wonderful early Fall visit to Door County. We enjoy this area of Door County, because it is quiet and still has easy access to the rest of Door County. We had a wonderful stay here. The property was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the views! Beautiful fire on the beach. Lovely coffee in the morning with the wind and waves. We would definitely enjoy staying here again. ENJOY! ( If you ever stay here, you will understand that).

New construction. Quiet. Comfortable beds. Good water pressure. Well stocked kitchen. Tons of mosquitoes and 5+ mosquitoes would literally hitch rides on your clothing into the house! They were relentless. Couldn’t enjoy the beach without being attacked. It was insane, so we mostly hung out inside or went to the local towns. 2 smoke detector batteries were low and linked, so at 2am ALL of the smoke detectors went off. Found the trash bins in the woods near the street, after looking for them under the deck, as instructed. They have some kinks to work out, but all in all, it was a good stay.
