This mid-1800’s cabin has been lovingly renovated (admire the character of the original hand scraped wood walls and ceiling beams) with all the amenities and comforts of home. New in 2022: extra fast Wifi via Starlink (up to 105 mbps) and a high efficiency ductless AC and heating system. Doc’s Hideaway has a large cozy living room with a 40" HD Smart TV (with Directv), fast WiFi, a pellet stove, a main bedroom (queen bed), a full bathroom, and a high efficiency ductless AC and heating system. The large and bright kitchen and dining area are well stocked and overlook the wooded backyard which has a gas grill, outdoor table and eating area, and a fire pit. There is a narrow stairway to the large upstairs sleeping loft with two twin beds and a large seating area. The cabin has views of the lake (the cabin is not waterfront, the lake is across the street). In the off-season (Sept. 20 - May 20) we provide access to a private waterfront patio located at a separate property diagonally across the street. a 1-minute walk away (the waterfront patio area is not available in the summer). In the summer, beautiful Gills Rock waterfront park and its lake access and amazing lake views is just a lovely 5-minute walk away at Mariners Park. At the park you can sit down by the water and take in one of Door County’s most spectacular views (listen to the waves roll in, enjoy the sunset, or watch the old fishing tugs or the Island Clipper passenger ferry motor by). Or you can launch your kayaks here to explore the beautiful shoreline (this is the same Bay local kayak tours launch from). Enjoy all that Northern Door County has to offer at Doc's Hideaway. You’re just a short walk to the Gills Rock waterfront park, the Shoreline Restaurant, Charlie's Smokehouse, the Shoreline Boat Tours, the Washington Island ferry, and boat ramps and dock space; or a quick bike ride or drive to Seaquist Orchards Farm Market, Newport State Park, Ellison Bay Beach, Door Bluff County Park, Island Orchard Cider, and numerous art galleries. Sister Bay and all of its dining, entertainment, and shopping is only 10 minutes away. In Fall, there is no better place than Gills Rock to enjoy the changing colors, while still being close to all the local festivals and farm markets. And if you’re looking for a tranquil and snowy winter getaway, this historic cabin is the perfect choice; enjoy the unsurpassed beauty of Northern Door County blanketed in snow, and the Bay covered in ice. Ask us about weekly and monthly off-season rates in November through April.

May 13, 2016 #### Lovely place to stay Doc's Hideaway is a beautiful historic log cabin that has been well taken care of. I felt very comfortable and at home there and they provide you with all the amenities you would need. The location of the cabin is wonderful as you are in walking distance of the marinas, parks, boat launches and beaches. The only reason why I did not give it 5 starts is the sitting area is not right in front of the cabin as I thought. You will need to walk a tiny distance, but not the biggest deal. I would recommend this to a couple or family. A very pleasant stay! ##### Julie R. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kraig K.

Like the pellet stove, and the new heating system. I stayed upstairs and the heat was slow to rise, i would recommend turning power to the baseboard heater upstairs. I love the location and the overall accommodation, i have been coming to the door since 1968 as a young lad, my father was a scuba diver on the wrecks, eventually buying a home on port a moor drive. ##### Kraig K.

My family of 4, my husband and (2) 18 yr. old's plus our dog stayed here over the Christmas holiday. We celebrated Christmas with extended family who had their own places in Gills Rock/Ellison Bay. Doc's Hide way was the perfect spot to come back to and hang out. We used the kitchen quite a bit. There was amble room to roll out homemade noodles. It was really cold outside, but we stayed warm and cozy and the beds were really comfortable. We loved reading about the history of the cabin. Thanks for providing that information!

The cabin was very comfortable and in a great location. The kitchen was well stocked with any appliances, dishes, and cookware needed. The bedroom was cozy and the bed was extremely comfortable. Gregg and Shelli were wonderful to work with and very prompt with answers. We were lucky that it was still cold outside so we could take advantage of the wood pellet stove. We would rent again in a heartbeat. ##### Brad C. Stayed 12 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John P. May 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Serenity in Gills Rock We've stayed at Doc's Hideaway in Gills Rock previously and have always found it a perfect and serene place to spend time in Door County. After the hubbub of the other interesting towns in Door County, it's so nice to come back to Doc's Hideaway and its location by Hedgehog Harbor. We enjoy the seating by the waterfront, the availability of the very nice campfire ring--and the fact wood is available right there at a very reasonable price. The cottage itself is well-equipped an extremely comfortable. I inadvertently left the key in the cottage when we departed on Saturday and was very worried when we got back after a day's activity to find we couldn't get in. Through the assistance of VRBO and a VERY helpful property owner, our problem was solved. What could have been a fretful event turned out very well. No better place to wind down than Gills Rock and Doc's Hideaway. ##### John P. Stayed 5 nights in May 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard M.
