Authentic feel, perfectly situated on Lake Michigan

The location was perfect for us - away from crowds and right on the lake. The cabin is charming with its stone fireplaces and knotty pine paneling. We made a fire inside as well as outside in the fire pit, and we spent lots time enjoying the day down on the rocks. The kitchen was quite small, but had most everything we needed.

Great cottage in a great location

This was one of the cutest place we ever stayed at. The lake view was spectacular and the quiet woods make this little place the ideal location for a nice get away from the noise of city living. Thank you.,

End of summer

We could hear and see the waves, so peaceful! Quaint well kept cabin was just what we needed. Lots of book to read while the cool lake breezes kept the bugs away and the temperature comfortable. Secluded but close to everything.

Simplicity at its best!

The perfect, rustic getaway. Fall weather was perfect. We picked up some firewood on our way and read, napped and sat by the lake and fire. It was so restorative. Cabin was perfect for us! Sweet and simple. Maybe being an extra blanket- they came in handy!

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

My boyfriend and I booked this for his birthday weekend. It was so cozy and perfect for the first cool weekend of fall! Such a great, quiet location right on the water. The cabin was clean and comfortable and access to the water was amazing. The electric fireplace in the bedroom was very convenient and we took advantage of the real fireplace in the living room at night. Highly recommend this spot.

Fantastic. Water a bit smelly

Beautiful vintage cottage in quaint location. Yard a bit rocky. Watch where you are walking! Steps to beach are very manageable

Wonderful, quiet getaway

This cabin was the perfect getaway. Beautiful view of Lake Michigan, went to sleep each night with waves crashing onshore —could’ve asked for more.

Door County away from the Tourist Traps

Wonderful Cabin, great hosts, Awesome view of Lake Michigan away from all of the bustle of the west side of Door County. We were able to see and do so much from this private secluded location. We went to Washington Island for most of a day and still got back in time to enjoy Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant We found other great places to eat close to the cabin. Speaking of the cabin, there is nothing better than to go to sleep with the breeze coming in off of Lake Michigan except maybe to wake up to that same breeze. There are stairs that will take you down to the lake A very enjoyable place to stay for the weekend. Cabin is perfect

Relaxing, rejuvenating, refreshing

This was excellent overall. One thing - We could not find an afghan or quilt or extra blanket and it got rather chilly both nights we were there. It might be nice to provide a few of those for watching TV or sitting out on the lawn watching the sunset. Otherwise it was fantastic!

Cottage Getaway!

This trip was a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday, he had no clue where we were going, and when we arrived his smile said it all. Such a cozy place to stay, with a breath-taking view over lake Michigan. This location was also perfect as it was only a short drive to all surrounding Door County towns, along with being down the road from Cave Point! We couldn't be happier and hope to return in the future.

Great location with privacy

We enjoted our stay. We didnt spend a lot of time at the cottage but it was juat as described. Nice bed, bathroom and shower. Location was perfect, about 20 minutes from anywhere on the peninsula. We enjoyed the ferry to Washington Island for tourist stuff. We highly recommend Grizzly Tours scenic airplane ride. Dave is very proud oand knowledgeable about the peninsula and its history, bonus he lives in the Jacksonport area. Very much enjoyed the local Mikes Porter Pub just down the road.

Simply Great

This location is wonderful. Its peaceful right by the water and a great location to get around door county. It has a nice older feel to the inside with that old time feeling. We would definitely stay again. Only complaint was that the cleaning wasnt great for the price you pay for it. We found already chewed gum next to the fireplace and very dusty and sandy under the night stand by bed. Otherwise this place was great.

Cute Cabin

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this cabin. The scenery was beautiful, when you woke up you got a wonderful view of the sunrise from the master bed. It was a little cold when we got there, but the heater worked well and it wasn’t cold anymore. If you are planing on using their wonderful fireplace, just plan on bringing your own wood and kindling, since it’s not provided by the owners. There isn’t a whole lot to do in Jacksonport, but it’s not a very long drive to anything. Overall, great location for a couples getaway :)

Like stepping back in time, quaint, peaceful

My husband and I loved staying here! The rustic place was so nice to come to after our wedding to get away and relax. The view from the stairs leading down to the water is beautiful. There are plenty of windows to open the cabin up and let the sunshine and fresh air in. The fireplaces kept us warm and cozy at night. The architecture and features within the cabin are so unique and charming. The only thing I will say is the bed was a little tough to sleep on. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to anyone coming to visit door county.

Quiet, Rustic Cabin in the Woods

We stayed in late Oct 2024. Cabin is older, but very clean. Was a bit chilly in the main room in the evenings (temps in low to mid 40’s); the heaters seemed to have some trouble keeping up. There is a wood burning fireplace in the main room which would have helped, I’m sure, but we were just there in the evenings and didn’t go to the trouble to build a fire. There is an electric fireplace in the bedroom, so it stayed adequately warm at night. The views were beautiful of the sunrises on Lake Michigan. We were completely charmed by the peninsula, and it was easy as ne quick to get to everything there—both sides of the peninsula. The falll colors, although a little past peak, were still just beautiful in so many places. We loved that restaurants were not chain stuff and were locally owned. All in all we were very pleased with the cabin and the area. Just we’re a little cold on the coldest night we were there.

Over grown mess

The pictures of this cabin must be ten years old and ten years since they did anything in the yard. Overgrown trees 4 and 5 tall everywhere blocking the view weeds and grass knee high. The bed and couch are worn out futons and maybe a foot off of the floor. After three nights we left and got a hotel room. Don't book!

A truly rustic getaway

This is a truly rustic getaway with the highlight being the amazing view of the sunrise on Lake Michigan every morning. A nice, quiet location but a short drive to Cave Point Park for a great walk. The cabin is older but has a lot of charm and some nice updates. I felt it could use a few more lamps in the living room - overhead lighting is harsh and not conducive to an evening in front of the fire. It got chilly at night and we had trouble with the heating but the owners responded right away and had someone there to help us out very quickly. It was still chilly so a few extra blankets or throws would have been nice. We could have used a manual or instructions for the property -- didn't get one until the night before checking out. While I loved the amazing view in the backyard, I was surprised to find the back stoop in disrepair and the yard very uneven, full of rocks and roots so tread carefully - but it's worth it to get to the stairs that take you down to the rocky shore, a lovely spot to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee (the Door County blend they provided was delicious) while listening to the waves.

Our experience

Pictures of the shower online were not accurate. Shower had stains all over from the hard water.The water had a bad smell and taste. Place was barely insulated, very cold at night. Small electric heater didn’t heat well. Had to have a fire every night to stay warm. Leaves all over the yard and overgrown trees/landscape. However, location was a secure spot and lake view was beautiful.

A nice place to stay

This is a nice property over all. Just rustic enough. The neighbors are quite close though, and the barking dogs do get bothersome. Aside from the water heater not working the morning of our final stay, and a rather snooty text message from the owners, everything worked as it should. There should definitely be a manual or labels on all the lights. I did not receive the digital manual till the last night of our stay when it was emailed with checkout instructions. The only thing that will prevent my girlfriend and I from returning was the mattress. A memory foam mattress combined with the cheapest hotel surplus poly-fill pillows resulted in stiff necks, very uncomfortable sleep, and a near impossible graceful dismount from the bed for my rather large self. A standard mattress would have been much nicer. The property is nice, but I will be doing much more research on the mattress accommodations in the future.

Breathtaking Sunrises

We loved our stay here! It was the perfect quaint cottage. The sunrises were INCREDIBLE, as the cabin sits facing the water. Coupled with the lake breeze and sound of waves through the open windows, there isn’t a better way to enjoy Lake Michigan! The location felt private, as it was off the beaten path in the woods. There are neighbors on both sides, but the property still felt secluded. The beach access at the bottom of the stairs is just for you, not the neighbors! The cabin was very clean which is a must for us. The shower/toilet were spotless and the couch and bed were super comfortable. The hosts are great, and we didn’t have any issues! The only advice to future guests would be to bring some bottled waters if you’re not a fan of groundwater. The temperature was good throughout our stay. No AC as stated in the description, but with the wood structure and multiple windows and fans, it stayed perfectly comfortable. We might have to come back in the winter. I would imagine it would be extra cozy with the two fireplaces and the silence of the snow. In summary, we have nothing but good things to report! Book this place if you’re looking for friendly and reachable hosts, cozy cabin ambience, breathtaking views, and central location to the activities Door County offers.
