This was our second stay at Open Hearth and honestly, I don't think I will ever stay anywhere else. From the owners being more than accommodating (WIFI wasn't working in our room, it was fixed in 5 minutes), to the overall staff friendlyness, to the clean room and amazing breakfast (ok, lets talk about that pancake machine - AMAZING!!) This was a great experience. Bed was a little hard for my liking, but can't win everything.... and everything else was PERFECT!

The stay here felt very comfortable and homely. The place is tucked away so you don't get traffic sounds or car exhausts. Breakfast every morning felt like I was a fancy bed and breakfast. The owners chatting you up about local sites, things to do, or just asking how your stay has been as also really nice.

It's right in front of the beautiful lakefront. The cars at night are a little loud because it's RIGHT by the street BUT very few drive by at night. The rooms are gorgeous and the staff is VERY knowledgeable and friendly! It's within walking distance of a lot of activities and restaurants too!

The room was super clean, the beds were comfortable, the price was right, and the staff was friendly and provided excellent service. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, and the whirlpool tub in our room was the icing on the cake. What a great place! We will be back.

We have been staying at the Waterbury for years! It's one of the best places to stay in Door County in the summer because it is in the heart of the action! We love the outdoor pool and picnic areas! Such a great place for a family. We have space to spread out and we feel at home here! The staff is beyond friendly and kind. For instance, we are not coffee drinkers and I left a note by the keurig type machine requesting 2 teas for the 2nd night of our stay (we only had 1 tea and 5 coffees)...

I was so very excited to arrive at this hotel and have it be everything I had hoped for. Our check in was efficient and we were so excited to see our room--spacious, clean, and modern. Perfect. We loved the extras like the on property smalll grocery/gift shop, beautiful public spaces like the hot tub and pool, fireplace area with magazines and games, and free coffee.

We were impressed by the expansive grounds. Seems like there's a lot to do -- although our stay was during cold and rainy weather. Our room featured a gas fireplace, which was a nice surprise. Each lodge-like building has a beautiful sitting area where you can watch the sunset -- and even a whirlpool and sauna. We also loved how close it was to the adorable town of Fish Creek. We're looking forward to staying here again in the future!

The room was quiet, clean and in a great location. The beds were a little extra firm and no one was on site for check in. Luckily there was a phone number on the office door to contact them. All was good, our room was ready.
We would stay again.
