Waterfront gem, sandy beach, modern kitchen, large great room, free firewood

Unique setting on Sand Bay among cedar trees and awe inspiring views! Open concept kitchen with quality appliances and large island leads into dining and "infinity" great room, overlooking the bay. Comfortable bedrooms, beautiful bathrooms, and private waterfront patio for grilling, deck for lounging, and fire pit for chilling.

45 minutes from Green Bay and 10 minutes to Sturgeon Bay.

Enjoy swimming and lounging from the property or great public beaches, golf, parks, cherry viewing/picking, hiking, biking, dining, shopping close by.

Ample room for lawn games, volleyball, roasting marshmallows over the waterfront fire pit, cooking on the gas grill, and eating on the patio. We even provide the propane for the grass grill! Garage converted to a rec room for additional sitting space and games like darts and oversized Jenga.

The water typically is warm enough for comfortable swimming in summer. Our shore is a sand and rock mix, so be sure to bring water shoes if you plan to swim. You are also welcomed to use our kayaks, stand up paddle board, and peddle boat! These items are available May - October. This area is a fishing hot spot all year round!

We have tried to make your stay as comfortable and convenient as possible. We provide a well stocked kitchen and bathrooms, all bed linens, pillows, towels, and soaps.

New, unlimited high speed internet provides fast and reliable WiFi suitable for streaming and browsing.

Head to Sturgeon Bay and don't miss the Saturday morning Farmer's Market in summer! Throughout the year, you can stroll through downtown and enjoy great shopping, food, and drinks. Be sure to walk across the steel bridge and enjoy the great views of nature, yachts, industry, and the wonderful collection of people that live in and visit this special place.

Viewing the North Pierhead lighthouse by walking out on the break wall jutting into Lake Michigan on the north side of the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal can make for a memorable experience and should not be missed. This may be the more photogenic place in all of Door County!

Don't miss Potawatomi State Park if you are looking for mountain biking, a boat launch, an invigorating hike (Hemlock Trail) or a challenging ski when there is snow.

Looking for a beach? Head to Haines County Park, just a mile away. The sand, sun, and water can not be beat here. This is a real Door County treasure!

Of course, you can always head north of Sturgeon Bay if you are looking for more shopping, dining, hiking, and beautiful shorelines.

Looking for additional space? Check out our other waterfront house 3 miles away on the shore of Little Sturgeon Bay! This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is new and offers incredible amenities including a large covered porch that spans the entire length of the house and overlooks the waterfront, large yard, and awe inspiring sunsets. The property ID 2693816 and it's named Porch Time on Lil Sturgeon Bay.

Family Vacation

We had the best week here! The waterfront access was perfect and the outdoor space was fantastic. We spent the week paddle boarding and kayaking, having s’mores, playing yard games. The house was clean and very well stocked with plenty of kitchen tools and gadgets that made it very easy for us to cook all of our meals there.I would highly suggest this property if looking for somewhere to stay in the area!

Great stay!

We had a great second vacation with our kids to Scott’s property! The house is cozy but also had plenty of space for our 4 adults and 3 kids (3, 5, and 7). The kids especially liked how far you could wade out without needing to know how to swim well. We really enjoyed the kayaks and paddle board. The sunset over the water is so special - as is the fact that one whole side of the property is undeveloped. It was a fun and memorable trip!

House for a family of 8 was perfect. Lots of open living space to congregate in. A fully stocked kitchen was very nice. Views of the water were stunning. Plenty of bird watching to be had. Lots of onsite activities to keep you occupied. We drove to the Washington island ferry which was 1 hr 20 minutes so the location was a great home base. The check in and checkout was very easy.

A work delivery brought us to the area, so we decided to take the family & make a short trip out of it. The location was quiet, safe & along a beautiful strip of sandy beach cottages. The hosts provided excellent communication. The home itself has an ideal layout, not to mention GORGEOUS Bay windows facing West!

Friends Reunion

The property was just as described in the listing - beautiful waterfront location, semi-private lot, plenty of on-site entertainment for our group (kayaks, paddle board, corn hole, etc). This was an ideal gathering place for 8 adults. Plenty of space, inside and out to sit together for waterfront morning coffee and evening cocktails by the fire pit. House has well-equipped kitchen. We would absolutely rent this house again for future reunions.
