Vacation rentals with lake access in Ephraim

This is our second time staying at this property, we returned because we loved it so much. Amazing views from the house, very peaceful, and close to attractions in Sturgeon Bay and the rest of Door County. Bonus, there was a cute little groundhog that was sunning himself in the mornings out front of the house.

Dana was a great host. The place was nice and well stocked with lots of supplies that one might not think of/forgot to bring. The location was great with a nice big back yard with a view of the bay. Lots of wildlife in the area. We even saw a Bald Eagle that was there both mornings of our stay! Would definitely stay here again.

This place is beyond breathtaking and worth every penny. Not only is it a dog-friendly haven, the privacy, serenity and accessibility to the beach and sunset views is unbeatable. I highly recommend to disconnect, be present and enjoy the place - no need to leave the house. The host has plenty of in-house amenities, stocked kitchen, and a fenced in yard. We are so excited to return to this cozy cottage soon!

Our family vacation was absolutely what we wanted on Washington Island, and especially at Essa's home! We wanted a quiet, relaxing place, and we definitely got that. We seriously felt like we were on a secluded island....didn't see one person until we drove to the other side of the island! If you are looking for a place to get away from the everyday hustle of life, Essa's place is where it's at. We got up in the mornings and had coffee and read on the 4 season's porch, sat on the beach, played games, watched movies, and had bonfires in the evening. The only bad thing....the week went to quickly!!!!

Exactly the little getaway my pups and I needed. Everything was lovely. This was the first time during an airbnb stay I found myself checking the calendar during the stay to check future availability. Can't wait to go back!

This was likely the best place for relaxation and family time that we have ever stayed at. Kelly was a super host and had answers for any questions we had quickly . I am hopeful we can make it back soon as we enjoyed the Cotes property so much. Thanks for a great couple days !

We enjoyed our stay here so much. We loved the windy days when the waves rolled on the beach, and the calm, foggy days too. Our kids loved playing in the water. The house was super clean and so well stocked and prepared. We would highly recommend a vacation here!

We had such a wonderful stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and in a great location. The host was super responsive and made check-in a breeze. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches and how comfortable everything felt. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

We had a great stay for the weekend with 3 adults, 1 toddler and our dog! Krissi made everything so easy, and was responsive when we had a quick question during our stay. This is the ideal location in Algoma, easy walk to everything while also feeling quiet and secure. The place is nice and updated, and I loved the extra little touches that made it feel more personal!

Great location. Walking distance to lots of great restaurants and the winery.

Decorated very well. Simple and clean. Could look out the window and see the lighthouse. Beautiful sunrise. The hotel next door was being refurbished so there was some noise from that early in the morning (wasnt really loud but more annoying). The studio was supplied very well with coffee and coffee pot and electric kettle and all condiments. I enjoyed my 3 nights very much. Went up to Sister Bay and Fish Creek. Ate at Al Johnsons and took a lighthouse boat cruise out of Sister Bay. Door County is so beautiful and the studio in KEWAUNEE was a great place to stay.

We loved it and are planning our next trip to go back. Great location, quiet and nice neighbors.

My family and I came up to this area to visit Door County. It was about 25 minutes to the Door County area, but we went up two days in a row and enjoyed the drive both days. As far as the condo itself, it was great. Very comfortable and roomy and had everything we needed. My 12 year old daughter was sad when we had to leave because she enjoyed it so much. It was a true gem!! Thanks for giving us what felt like a home away from home!!!

We loved the location and everything about the accommodations! Will definitely book again in the future .

Dan was incredibly responsive. I texted him that the iron was damaged and he had a new one there within 20 minutes. Excellent experience. We fell in love with the community!

My husband and I were in town to do some more sections of the Ice Age Trail. Very well located for that and great location for proximity to the lake and downtown amenities. The loft was cozy and comfortable and had everything we needed and the hosts were super helpful. Would definitely return.

This place has an unbeatable water view and is very cozy! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a long weekend getaway in northern Door County that’s close to plenty of things to do!

This home is a peaceful, quiet, retreat. The views were the biggest plus for us. Dan has really nice outdoor furniture, hammock and firepit.....And when moving indoors, comfortable, clean sofas to sit and watch the water too. For a "dog friendly home", the owners have really done a great job of keeping the indoor spaces very clean and bright. We felt very comfortable amd relaxed here. What a great southern Door spot!

Absolutely adored the cottage and our stay in Fish Creek! The house is so idyllic and charming, and right in the center of everything there is to do in Fish Creek. We would love to return someday!

We had a wonderful long weekend in this super cozy, extremely clean home where we had everything we needed. The view and sunsets were amazing, and we enjoyed the backyard even though the weather was a little chilly. Check in was easy and Natasha was very responsive. We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back again!

Exactly as described. Peaceful and relaxing but close to shops and restaurants. Joe was easily accessible but honestly, the cabin had everything we needed. An absolutely lovely space in a beautiful area! Would absolutely book again.

For a quick weekend getaway- this is the place! Super easy to get to right from the ferry and still private. The yard is spacious and right off the shore. The dogs loved swimming and all of us loved sitting along the fire to watch the sunset. The place was clean and Shelly was great! Can’t recommend enough

We spent four nights in the cabin and truly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was pristine and offers a lovely, wide view of the bay. Don and Pam have made an effort to offer not only that built-in view, but also front and back yards with pretty flowers and plants. They have also clearly made an effort to offer up a pretty home with many special touches. We appreciated that the cabin was stocked with many helpful items, such as Saran, baggies, coffee, seasonings - all the things you don't want to have buy and then toss at the end of a trip barely used. Plus, we found this area to be a good jumping off point for the entire peninsula and handy to the necessities, such as a grocery store in Sturgeon Bay. We also enjoyed many walks around the neighborhood, which is woodsy and beautiful.

A really lovely place to stay - in a peaceful area and with a small private beach. The cottage was really clean and had great amenities. I would definitely recommend this place.
