About this property
Door County Cabin on the Water
This is a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom cottage/cabin on the navigable creek just off of Sawyer Harbor. Right down the road from Potawatomi State Park and Idlewild Golf Course. This location is 10 minutes from downtown Sturgeon Bay. Just a short drive to wineries and other Door County fun! There is a boat launch and a boat port on the property, so bring your boat if you'd like (small boats only)! Great fishing area for walleye, northern and musky! We have 2 single kayaks and one 17' canoe available for rent! We also have 4 adult mountain bikes and 2 adolescent bikes available for rent! Please inquire for more details on the rental equipment. Our fire pit down by the creek makes for a great night of s'mores and pudgy pies. Our back patio area is also great for enjoying the sunset and awesome wildlife views.
There is a queen bed, full bed, four twin beds (2 bunk beds) and one pull-out couch. Our home can sleep up to 6 adults and 4 children. No cleaning fish in the house. No bachelor/bachelorette parties. No pets of any kind. Please be aware that cell service is not the best in our area. We do have WiFi!
We have a 22" charcoal grill onsite for guests to use. Grill brushes and utensils are provided. You must bring your own charcoal. Please clean grill grate after each use.
We are asking that guests please use the public boat launch down the road if the ground leading to our launch is noticeably very wet and soft due to the water level being high -or- if the water level is too low.
One small bundle of firewood per night is included; also feel free to burn as many sticks from our brush pile as you would like.
Located in Sturgeon Bay, this vacation home is on the waterfront. Lake Michigan and Potawatomi State Park reflect the area's natural beauty and area attractions include Door County Maritime Museum and Third Avenue PlayWorks. The Garden Door and The Farm are also worth visiting. Enjoy the area's slopes with cross-country skiing, and don't miss out on the snowmobiling, sledding, and ice skating.

This was a great family-friendly place to stay. The location allowed us to be within a pretty close driving distance of the Shrine of our Lady of Champion, several beautiful state parks, cherry picking, etc. Enjoyed renting the kayaks, canoe, and bikes also.
We had a great location for relaxing and enjoying activities in Door County while also having downtime at the cottage. It was remote enough to feel out in the country but close enough to all our events. Special bonus to enjoy Kayaks, canoe, campfires, bikes, and grilling. Highly recommend to others.

Property on stagnant water with green film
The pictures show a prestine home that is older, but very clean and the aerial picture shows a beautiful bay. That is not what we found at this property . We were looking forward to relaxing on beautiful water and kayaking for a few days. What we found was a marshy swamp of water with a greenish film, filled with cattails and the water was not moving at all. If the water is completely stagnant like a marsh, this should have been stated in the description of the property. The water was too gross to even kayak around in. We were shocked given how beautiful the water is around the rest of door country. We ended up leaving the property in the morning and coming back late at night because we didn’t want to be there. In addition the windows, shower and dishes were not clean. When we walked in, we were met with a musty, dusty smell reminiscent of an old folks home. You can see my other reviews online are very positive, so I try to always find the positive in a situation, but given that our experience was so different from the other reviewers, it is only fair to share our experience. I need to mention the notable exception to our experience was that the property does have a great fire pit, which we enjoyed after dark. Property contract was responsive on providing check in information.
We spent 2 days there. First time I rented a cabin. I like that all of us could sit around in the living room and be comfortable. I already recommended the cabin to family who like to fish.
Very nice, tons of games, lots of space outside on the deck and a great fire pit area. Two nice size bedrooms and one with bunk beds.I would definitely rent again.
We had a nice time exploring Door County from this cabin. It worked great for the family and they had plenty of board games to entertain us several times. The back porch is great for a BBQ and evening meal outside.
Quiet well appointed cabin. Nature abounds in the backyard with great deck and fire pit with western views. Sunsets and frogs singing all night. Can’t wait to book it again.
This place is on Sawyer Harbor which gives great access to the bay for world class fishing. Rachel was amazing to deal with, even sending me pics to answer specific questions about the property, which was clean and well kept. We will come back for sure.

Not a bad spot.
Great location although it smelled like mold when we stepped in. It did air out after a day or so. No side effects from my elderly father.
This is a perfect cabin for anyone who enjoys fishing and nature. The pier on the property was perfect for our boat to be docked which made it so much easier to go fishing. We enjoyed peace & quiet and the firepit at night making Smores and counting the stars. The downside of this cabin is that it is poorly maintained and it can get hot. You will need the fans because unfortunately most of the windows do not open or have screens .
The property was as listed. We had an issue with the TV not working and a text was sent but there was no response. We did not go there to watch TV so it was not a big problem.
Great family getaway & amazing location for the outdoor lovers.
We had a super fun family trip (3 kids, 2 parents, and 2 grandparents). The house is right on the water and less than a quarter mile away opens up into the bay. We went kayaking and canoeing from the house. And less than a half mile from the house are some access paths into Potawatomi State Park, where my wife and I went on some beautiful and fun trail runs. We also brought mountain bikes and went for some family bike rides through the park. About a 4 mile bike ride through the park is a fun restaurant with a water view and beach called Waterfront Mary's. Really fun. And only about a 10 minute drive is downtown Sturgeon Bay with lots of restaurants and shops. We also ventured a little further north into Door County for some short day trips to go hiking and swimming in Lake Michigan. The house was just as advertised. Clean and comfortable with plenty of space for us. We spent most of the time outside since the weather was perfect. My son caught 3 frogs and 1 turtle from the house and we also saw several deer.
The kids of course loved the bunk beds and the campfires we had in the big firepit by the water. Rachel was extremely responsive, friendly, and informative. We got very lucky to book this only about 2 weeks before the trip and are happy to be the first renters. I guess this won't be a secret anymore! We would love to come back.
It was a bit dirty especially under beds. Towels were still in the dryer although we had plenty for our needs. No 1st day of coffee or shampoo is always nice after a long drive.
