We had a great stay in Door County. Such a great location as there is so much you can walk to. We had trouble with the lock and parking and I found the number to call and they were responsive. We got in. But had to wait for communication so we knew that we could leave, lock and get back in. It really was fine and great space for our family to share. Small things were wrong or incorrect or broken. Couch was comfy and the couch bed satisfactory. Fireplace was nice! Again you can’t be the location!

Great Spot!
Overall, this property was very clean and well-appointed. We enjoyed our short stay very much! The location is ideal for walking around Fish Creek and being central to the peninsula! (This is not something to include in the review, and I didn't contact the property manager because we were there for such a short time...but if there is central A/C in this unit, it was not working or controllable by the thermostat. We instead went to open a few windows to find that there were no screens on the windows at all. Thankfully, we were all adults so I wasn't worried about safety. However, I also chose not to open the windows so as not to let in bugs! So we were a bit warm overall. As a mom, though, if I had been staying here with little ones, I would have been extremely concerned that if a small child figured out how to open a window, they could lean over curiously and fall right out without any barrier to help prevent it. Just a little note that could possibly help other guests! This doesn't need to be part of a review at all. Just making you aware!) Thank you again!

Hello Gretchen, Thank you so much for your kind words and for the 5-star review. We’re so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the property clean, comfortable, and ideally located for exploring Fish Creek. We also truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback about the A/C and window screens, even though it didn’t impact your overall experience. Your note is incredibly helpful, and we absolutely understand how important these details can be, especially for families with young children. We’re already addressing this with our team to ensure a better and safer experience for all future guests. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Great home and location within 10 minute walk of everything in Fish Creek. Pleasant surprise was the two cruiser bikes our family used a lot to go run for coffee and tea down at the harbor in the morning. (Check out Blue Horse Cafe). While we didn’t get to use the pool the grounds and other homes were all beautiful and quiet. Home was well furnished and kitchen had all the basics and beyond. I would highly recommend for 4-6 people who are looking for a great location in Door County.

Great 4 night stay in Fish Creek
Our stay was great very nice townhouse, clean and close to everything in Fish Creek. Can pretty much walk to the local restaurants as well. It’s a nice drive to either Ephraim or Sister Bay to the north and Egg Harbor to the south. Enjoyed hiking in Peninsula State Park and to the top of the tower. Ferried to Washington Island and a Sunset cruise which we brought our dinner with and drinks. Loved our visit in Door County. also may have left a few things at the house is it possible for some one to contact me?
Cynthia - Posted: 10/23/2023

Great home and location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Perfect size for my husband, myself, and our 18-year-old daughter, plus we had room for some visiting time with our son and granddaughter. Had everything we needed to prepare our own meals. We loved the pool and the ability to walk everywhere, but still quiet and quaint. Highly recommend!

Girls weekend
Had a great time, perfect location. Must be new to renting because everything was brand new and in the packages was really nice! The parking/driveway is extremely tight and a little confusing. Maybe post a sign on which two parking stalls belong to the house? We had two SUVs and we couldn’t fit that well and backing up was a challenge due to the houses being so close to one another. BUT there was always parking on the street so wasn’t a huge issue. Neighbor watched our every move and was extremely rude. Otherwise we had a great time and would recommend staying!
