We loved our stay at Anamcara! It had been a couple years since we stayed in Door County and we usually stay in Fish Creek. We are so happy we booked this home in an area we wouldn't have seen otherwise. It was a great neighborhood for walking our 10 month old puppy and steps from the shoreline to watch the gorgeous Door County sunsets. We met some neighbors as they were still cleaning up from a recent storm and they were very friendly and welcoming. We saw deer throughout that didn't seem to mind us staring back at them. The kitchen was stocked nicely, and there were starter soaps and bathroom items that were appreciated. We especially loved the fire pit area and the cedar porch in the mornings. We would love to book this property again in the future!

We loved reading this! It sounds like you truly soaked up everything Anamcara has to offer, from sunsets by the shore to mornings on the cedar porch. We’re especially happy your puppy had a great time too. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’d be thrilled to welcome you back anytime for more fire pit evenings and deer sightings!

We had a wonderful stay here! It's in a beautiful neighborhood in the woods. The house had plenty of space for our family of 3 + our dog. We loved the sun room and can see a piece of the lake and sunsets from there. It's a short drive to egg harbor and all that it has to offer. Overall it was a nice place to call home for our vacation in door county.

Mother’s Day weekend away
We went on our first Mother’s Day weekend away! The four of us stayed comfortably in the cottage. So cute, the decor was great. The lot was bigger than we expected and we were so surprised how close we were to the water. You can see it out the windows and watch the sunset over the lake while hanging out at the campfire. We may make this a tradition!
