Cabins in Door County

3 Bed, 2 bath log cabin in Sister Bay w/ fire pit
Perfect Getaway Cabin in Sister Bay, WI We stayed with our kids and dog in this cozy cabin. The location was perfect for traveling around different towns and villages in Door County. Three minutes from the town of Sister Bay. It was the perfect spot to come back to after a day of hiking and adventures. We were pleased with how clean it was and the amount of room we had for our family. It felt secluded and safe. We would definitely go back to this cabin again. Perfect spot to stay in Door County. The hosts made checking in a breeze and were available if needed. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Egg Harbor Log Cabin in the Woods, Door County
This cabin is absolutely cute and cozy. The fireplace was perfect and there was plenty of firewood on site to purchase. A nice getaway for me and my dogs!!

Wismar Cabin Waterfront with Private Beach
We had a great time staying at the cabin. It is perfect for a lowkey getaway and the location can’t be beat. Hoping to come back again soon!

Green Apple Lodge (w/hot tub & hi-speed wifi!)
This was my first stay in Door County and with Patty. There were 4 of us (me, my wife, my 5 year old daughter, and my 1 year old son) along with our golden doodle traveling together. We used Patty's crystal clear directions and got there without a hitch. We were impressed with how clean everything was! The floors, counters, bathrooms, etc. Being a log cabin, there are tons of nooks and crannies and we didn't see any that were dusty. It was easy to relax in a place that was so clean. The decor was very cute! Lots of cabin-themed items, but it wasn't cluttered, which I appreciated with two young kids that like to touch and handle *everything.* The kitchen was very well stocked with nice pots/pans, good utensils, and both adult and kid-friendly plates and cups which made it easier to relax at mealtimes. The new hot tub was really nice - a much needed treat after the kids went to bed! Both Patty and the house were awesome! I look forward to staying here again!

Door County Dreaming Cabin, Pet Friendly
Comfortable, roomy house, right on a quiet road, but with woods and a snowmobile trail behind. A terrific place. I hope to stay here again.

Serene, cozy cottage in the woods
This was a great cabin to use as a home base for the Door County bike ride. Very serene and comfortable.

North Woods Cabin
Great location. In town for a wedding. Exactly as pictured. Robert is really attentive and his communication is excellent. Would stay there again.

The Lodge Door Co. Sleeps 12!
Everything was a 10-10. Will definitely book again in the future. Only one small hiccup with the pool table. Understandable the fact that it a rental home I get not wanting to put a $5,000 pool table in it but the pool table was not operable. Was missing the area where the pool balls gather and then they would drop on the floor. I messaged them right away and he was aware of the problem and promised to get it repaired for the next guests. Outside of that the whole place was great. Good Wi-Fi because there is very limited cell service so if you want to disconnect for a few day I highly recommend it! One other small detail is there are a lot of nosy neighbors so they will stop you if they see you walking around on the roads and ask who you are and where you are staying. Nothing to do with the rental itself. Just be aware that we were asked at least 3 times who we were and why we were there.

Kok's Kove on the water in Door County
Great place for our family to gather, play games, hike and explore Sturgeon Bay! Beautiful home with all conveniences we needed. Plenty of bird watching in front of home, and hiking in Potowotami SP was a blast. Dan was a phenomenal host and felt he was available any time to answer questions or provide direction. Can’t wait to return!

Modern Door County Waterfront House + Hot Tub
Perfect lakeside getaway! This lakehouse exceeded all our expectations! The property was immaculate and beautifully maintained - you can tell the owners take great pride in their home. Communication was seamless from booking through checkout, and they were incredibly responsive to any questions we had. The hot tub was amazing, we spent hours relaxing in it while taking in the stunning lake views. Having the beach just steps from the backyard was a game-changer for our family. The house had everything we needed and more. The location offers the perfect blend of relaxation and fun activities.

Foxlea Guest House in Fish Creek
The house was extra clean and sparkling, and it had a good layout for our party of 4 adults to spread out and spend time in the house. The patios provided additional space to hangout and relax. The property itself was beautiful. We loved walking on the well-maintained trails that wind through the old farm fields and woods, and we were charmed by the ancient rock walls and trees and the peacefulness of it all. Communication with Ryan was great. He always responded quickly and reached out to us prior to checking in. We didn’t worry about anything because we knew Ryan was always available. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend it to others!

Cozy & Relaxing Wooded Home; Close to Everything!
Everything is as described. We loved the location. About 10-15 min from each of the places we wanted to visit.

Winding Down - A Retreat on the "Quiet Side"
We stayed at Winding Down for our 25th anniversary. We've been coming to Door County for over 25 years, and we've stayed at some nice places. But this is easily the nicest we've encountered. The space is expansive, but still cozy, quiet, serene and inviting. It is also immaculate. We enjoyed the selections of artwork and the attention to detail throughout the house. At one point we needed James's help with the refrigerator, and he was quick to provide assistance. It was also really enjoyable chatting with him. If the place is available again during our anniversary week, we'd love to return.

Lily Pad Cottage, Door County: Waterfront Cottage
We loved the waterfront location and had been trying to get a stay here for a while. The cottage was comfortable, cheery, and had a nice kitchen setup. It was in a great location, easily walkable to downtown for the farmer’s market or to the beach. The garden and outdoor living space was spectacular as well and we spent time reading and eating on the deck, along with visits from the resident dog Sara. Alisa is a personable hostess and this is a great place to stay. We love Sturgeon Bay and the accommodations made it a great weekend getaway.

Blushing Chateau | Door County Downtown Beach Home
Great home! We loved the proximity to downtown. Kitchen was stocked perfectly. Beautifully decorated!

Summer Getaway in a Secluded Forest Cottage
We enjoyed a long weekend with both sets of parents and our toddler and infant. Lots of thought and detail at the house that made it feel cozy and comfortable. Beautiful space! Having the kids room with kid stuff made things so nice and convenient. One thing we didn’t realize when booking was that one of the advertised bedrooms was in the open loft so to access the other bedrooms and upstairs bathroom you were walking though the bedroom space. Would book again.

Bayfront Historic Cabin | Pool | Door County
A unique, wonderful experience to stay in a historic cottage just steps away from the serene water. The upstairs sleeping quarters was perfect for our five children. The use of the pool/hot tub was an awesome way to accent our wonderful Door County excursion. Both Peggy and Jeff were kind and responsive to any questions we had about the area or our accommodations. Amazing hosts and property.

Purple Door Cottage (Fish Creek)
Eric and Natalie's cottage is one of my favorite places I've ever stayed in Door County. Nestled on a quiet street and only about one mile to downtown fish creek - the location was perfect. The cottage is tastefully decorated, and we felt right at home here. Like most fairytale cottages the internet was quite slow, but fast enough for streaming music, checking emails, and using maps. Pet friendly was a huge plus, our two dogs had as much fun as we did! We hope to be back again next summer.

Pet-Friendly, Cozy Cottage in Northern Door County
Great stay, the place was in a perfect location. It was away from the hustle and bustle of near by towns but wasn’t to far where things were not easily assessable. The place was a perfect north woods retreat

Waterfront cottage on Rowleys Bay!
Very beautiful view, very private and secluded! The outdoor games provided are above and beyond expectations!

2 bed 2 bath Condo
Great stay. Easy access and great communication. Shorty walk down to Sister Bay.

Lighthouse Lookout
Kyles place was just perfect for what we needed! My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here during our small getaway in Door County. The bed was super comfy, the decor was cozy— overall, a really relaxing spot to unwind after a day of Door County activities.

Door Room
Soo absolutely adorable!! We LOVED the sliding (barn) school office doors and all the vintage/retro decor!! Both of us being school teachers we loved all the school vibes and all the fun little touches! So much attention to detail! My hubby had a blast playing Pac Man & the other arcade games! The bed was comfy and the whole place was super cozy! He did amazing with the use of space! Within walking distance of the cutest coffee shop: 5J. Sturgeon Bay is the perfect starting base for exploring the "thumb" lol! ;)

Prinsen Retreat ~ Secluded, Hot Tub, Walk to Water
Stayed here for our honeymoon! The weather was chilly so we were grateful to warm up in the hot tub after a day out and about. We also went to Osteria Tre Tassi down the road TWICE. the best food ever and incredible atmosphere.
Your guide to Door County
Welcome to Door County
Sometimes called the Cape Cod of the Midwest, Door County is a narrow, triangular peninsula that juts out from eastern Wisconsin into Lake Michigan. The county is remote enough to have preserved the legacy of the Potawotami, Belgians, and Scandinavians who have made it their home. Yet Door County’s population of more than 27,000 swells exponentially in summer, when visitors escape to its coastal parks and approximately 35 surrounding islands and delight in a host of cultural events, breweries, restaurants, and museums. Circling the county will bring you past lighthouses, beaches, forests of white spruce and balsam fir, cherry orchards, and charming Midwestern towns with names like Brussels and Egg Harbor.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Door County
As you might imagine, the lake exerts a major influence on both the weather and the activities in Door County. Summer brings comfortably warm temperatures and flocks of visitors, who loll about the beaches and on the water from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Music lovers head to Fish Creek in August just for the Peninsula Music Festival, which draws spectacular performers from around the country. Fall’s crisp days are ideal for hiking and leaf-peeping, and if you arrive in September, you might catch Kermiss, a Belgian cultural festival in Brussels. Snowier than the rest of Wisconsin, Door County sees white roads and glittering trees from late October to mid-April — as well as enthusiastic cross-country skiers, ice skaters, and snowmobile riders.
Top things to do in Door County
Sturgeon Bay
This city of 9,000, located in the geographical heart of the peninsula, is a port town straddling tiny Sturgeon Bay. Water activities here are plentiful, from kayaking and paddleboarding to fishing in Lake Michigan, and the Whitefish Dunes right outside town offer trails to explore. It’s easy to lose an afternoon wandering in and out of the galleries, restaurants, breweries, and the historical museum downtown.
Door County Coastal Byway
One of the loveliest scenic byways in the Midwest, this 66-mile loop starts in Sturgeon Bay and culminates in Gills Rock, hugging Lake Michigan along the east side of the peninsula and Green Bay on the west. And though you may only spend a few hours driving, you’ll want to allocate a day for the loop, making frequent stops to climb the Cana Island Lighthouse, fill your shoes with sand on the Jacksonport beaches, and admire the historic buildings in Gibraltar.
Washington Island
The biggest of the county’s islands, accessible via car ferry year round, this island hosts a small community of 700 permanent residents — as well as copious hiking and biking trails, soft-sand beaches, and golf courses. This island was home to one of America’s first Icelandic communities, and a pan-Scandinavian influence remains. Make sure to hunt down the peaked roofs and Nordic carvings of the Stavkirke, a modern recreation of a medieval Norwegian church. If the island doesn’t feel remote enough, take a passenger ferry to the car-free Rock Island state park (available Memorial Day weekend through Columbus Day) for the day.
