Stone Fireplace on the Bay | 180ft Shoreline

Fall is when this shoreline goes quiet. Coffee on the deck with steam rising off Little Sturgeon Bay, deer at the edge of the yard, nights of firewood and stars with no city noise. A classic Door County waterfront cottage: wood-burning stone fireplace, 180 feet of private shoreline, and a kitchen guests write paragraphs about. Sleeps 10 across three bedrooms and a detached bunkhouse — right for a girls' weekend or Thanksgiving, and just as right for two people with nothing on the schedule.
