Hudson House, Private Acre In Quiet Neighborhood
Jen was prompt in responses, she set an extra bed ahead of time per request, the hot tub was shocked and warming so by the evening it was lovely and ready for us. We had one issue with the kitchen fan which was attended to while we were out. She allowed for a delayed check out even without request. The backyard was lovely and colorful, and it was so easy to find, park, and get to other things like target in less than a mile. It was just perfect for our group.

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!

Fenced-In Yard | Dog Friendly | Quiet Neighborhood
Mehgan's place was spacious, comfortable and had useful amenities. The bedrooms were fine and the living space was well laid out. There was plenty of room in the kitchen and adjoining laundry roomn and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and utensils, and enough coffee pods to getnthroughbthe weekend for two. The fenced backyard was an added benefit for our dog and we had fires in the evening in the table fire pit. Sheets were provided to protect furniture or beds from pet hair--we did not need these because we brought our dog bed, but that was a nice touch. The location was not great but the neighborhood was quiet and safe and you could take a long walk into town-the location was convenient. There was road construction nearby, and it will be nice when the roads are freshly paved. all in all it was a great stay.

Dogs Stay Free! Waterfront Door County Cottage
My friend and I rented Dan’s place very last minute for a three nights. Dan almost immediately sent me a message to make sure I had everything to ensure a smooth check-in and included some tidbits about the property, things to do and places to eat which was very helpful! There were plenty of towels and fresh linens and even had extra pillows and blankets. We didn’t bring a dog this time around but it was awesome to know my pup would have blankets, toys, and water bowl if we needed it! I would have loved to stay longer if I could have but I will definitely be keeping this place in mind the next time I have a long weekend!

The Cabin on the Glen Innish Farm
Stunningly beautiful and peaceful property with privacy, rolling hills, and excellent proximity to the action. So fun to watch the sheep being wrangled in and out of the pasture each day! The cabin is a wonderfully restored barn with meticulous attention to detail. The main bedroom is a FANTASTIC respite and the open loft hosts a great view of the cabin, as well as out the numerous patio doors that adorn 3 walls, giving a panoramic view of nature, sunrise, sunset, wildlife, etc. The cabin feels secure, and very comfortable. I appreciate having access to the thermostat, too. The host, Amber, has wonderful communication. Much information is provided up-front, and she as very quick to respond to the one random question that I had. My only regret is that I didn't leave enough time in our weekend to check out the farm store! This home couldn't be more perfect. I will be back!

~Driftwood Haven Cottage ~
It was such a peaceful, beautiful place to stay. The cabin was pristine and had everything we could ever need. Chrissy was so responsive and helpful with the check in. We will definitely be back again!

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.

Door County Cottage, near Haines Beach!
Place is exactly as described in the listing. We had a great time. Kayaks and bikes are a plus! If you’re traveling with kids then there is enough items to keep them engaged.😁

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.

Condo Indoor Pool Meadow Ridge #23 Egg Harbor, WI
This place was perfect for our family! The large backyard was perfect for outdoor games for all the kids and the pool was very nice! Bonus that we could walk to the winery and cheese store! Very convenient location for exploring all of door county!

Indoor pool and hottub Egg Harbor condo #51
The condo was extremely clean and had everything we needed for the long weekend. Scott was easy to get ahold of and answered all of my questions quickly. If you are visiting Door County I highly recommend staying here!

Amazing Six Bedroom Green Bay Vacation Home!!
Beautiful home felt like home!! Very roomy and cozy. Thanks Thomas for being responsive and answering my questions. Me and my family had a great time!!! Will definitely book again at this location or other locations you have.

DoorCo Happy Place @Landmark Resort
Quiet, restful location. The little porch was a nice touch. On the small side. Perfect for a couple, as I can't imagine sharing the space with kids. The location is perfect for exploring the Door. We did not use the pools, but would have if we remembered our suits! Well stocked kitchen if you feel like cooking, but no salt/pepper could be found. A pleasant stay overall!

Beautifully Updated Egg Harbor Townhouse in town!
My husband and I stayed with our children, their spouses and our grandchildren. There was plenty of room for the eight of to spread out and have our own space but also roomy enough to gather together for meals, games puzzles and watching movies. Everyone was very comfortable! We enjoyed the beautiful updated decor, furniture and appliances. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, including cooking oil, spices etc. Ryan provided plenty of garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels and Kleenex. The area was super quiet and relaxing and it was only a quick walk to the indoor pool and hot tub ( which we used everyday). We would highly recommend Ryan’s place and would be thrilled to stay there again.

Indoor Pool, 5 Bedrooms, 10 Min Walk to Lambeau
The house was perfect for our family. Clean and lots of room for all the kids. The pool was great and the added lock for the pool room made us feel much safer. Host was very responsive and answered all of our questions and concerns extremely quickly. Location was amazing being near the stadium and a lot of fun amenities. There is even a park for the kids a block away. Great place and would visit again.

Sea Glass Cottage
Very nice private cabin on lake michigan. Has everything you need with a wonderful cabin vibe. We had a great time and look forward to staying again!

Cozy Lakeside Cottage on White Potato Lake
Rained the first 2 days but the arcade room and board games kept us entertained when we were stuck inside. Yard is flat so kids played in the yard when it was too cold to swim. Sun Room and Firepit patio were highlights. S’mores stuff and bug spray were provided and much appreciated. On site towels/linens were also great. Had everything we needed. And Larry was very responsive and timely whenever we had a question. Can’t wait to come back!

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 Bay/Door County Waterfront 3BR Hot Tub
Beautiful location right on the water. The Event Room was perfect for watching sunsets in the air conditioning while it was 90 degrees outside. Beds were comfortable and all amenities were thought of.

Coco’s Cabin On The Lake (private beach!)
We loved the cabin, waking up to the sounds of the waves and the beautiful surroundings. Definitely would love to come back.

Gull Cottage Waterfront Home on Washington Island
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

The Riley's Bay Beach House
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.

Whippoorwill Valley Cabin quiet waterfront cabin
This was a great place and Erin was a great host. The amenities of the space were top notch and I found everything I needed. Especially appreciated the helpful instructions and the local menus. Definitely a great location to visit state and county parks. We loved visiting Dave' Falls!

Your guide to Sturgeon Bay
All About Sturgeon Bay
Just 45 minutes northwest of Green Bay and the largest city on the Door Peninsula in eastern Wisconsin, the city of Sturgeon Bay is a busy shipping corridor. The historic Sturgeon Bay Bridge, known locally as Michigan Street Bridge, was once the only link between the mainland and northern Door County. Now on the National Register of Historic Places, the bridge no longer goes all the way across, but you can walk most of it and take in views of the ships sailing by. Today, the Oregon Street Bridge and Bay View Bridge cross the bay and make for fun walks, runs, or cycle rides.
Sturgeon Bay has many parks, of which Sunset Park is the largest. Potawatomi State Park lies at the edge of the city and is named in honor of the Native American tribe who inhabited these shores. You’ll find biking and hiking trails throughout the park, including the 2.8-mile eastern trailhead of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail with interesting glacial characteristics. No visit to Sturgeon Bay is complete without a visit to historic Third Avenue, with its shops, shipbuilders, museums, art galleries, and restaurants where locally caught bass is always on the menu. Consider taking the city’s self-guided historic walk to discover it all.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Sturgeon Bay
Sturgeon Bay’s humid climate means it’s warm in spring, when the cherry trees are in bloom, and summer, when temperatures are their most comfortable and rentals in Sturgeon Bay become very popular. During the winter, temperatures fall below zero and it’s very windy and snowy. This cold period can last up to five months, from November to April. Fall in Sturgeon Bay brings harvest festivals, including Fall Fest and Pumpkin Patch. If you visit in September and October, you can expect fewer numbers of visitors.
Top things to do in Sturgeon Bay
Cave Point County Park
The rugged limestone cliffs of Cave Point County Park are popular with swimmers, divers, hikers, and photographers. The rock faces — carved out by centuries of crashing waves — surround Lake Michigan’s blue waters, while a multitude of underwater caverns that you can’t see from land run along the shoreline. The Black Trail at Cave Point leads south to the Whitefish Dunes, which are part of another state park.
Door County Maritime Museum
You’ll learn about Sturgeon Bay’s shipbuilding and maritime history at the Door County Maritime Museum. The waterfront museum takes you through Sturgeon Bay’s brave captains and bold inventors, fishermen, and lighthouse keepers. Many of the exhibits allow you to see how these tradespeople lived and worked in past eras.
Sturgeon Bay Canal North Pierhead Light
From a long pier, you can view Sturgeon Bay’s bright red North Pierhead Light, first built to guide vessels through the Lake Michigan end of the ship canal in 1881. The building is now a fully operational Coast Guard station that doubles as a great place to catch the sunset during the summer.
