Our stay was the first chilly weekend in Door County, I believe, and so the fuse box still had the breaker for the furnace turned off. It took a little bit of communication to figure out that we needed to flip the switch, but once we did, the place warmed up and everything went smoothly. Communication was great in helping us get that settled, and when we had to unexpectedly extend our stay by 1 night, they were able to confirm availability quickly. I appreciated the responsiveness!

Great location, 8 minute drive to Sister bay, 10 minutes from Peninsular state park, and 5 minutes from downtown Ephraim. So much to do in the area. Great back yard with a fire pit and plenty of space to park. It has everything you need for a getaway and the convenient location right off the main road is worth the money.

The house was clean, the yard was nice and big. We had fun and it is a beautiful home. The downstairs shower head was not great, and it could of just been us but in the description it said there was 4 common beds, we found 2 and a cot. I assume the couch was the 4th that they counted but it wasn't a pull out.

Hi Erica, we are glad to hear you liked the home! Appreciate all your feedback and wanted to note that besides the beds in the bedrooms, there is a trundle daybed as well. Hope we may have a chance to host you again sometime.

Perfect for a family
We had a great time at Captain's Quarters. The house is very comfortable and well equipped with everything you might need. There are many different areas for everyone to enjoy as they like: a cozy living-room, a deck with table, chairs, and a grill, a fire pit, a large lawn area, a porch. We used them all! We liked that the kitchen was well furnished with all sorts of pots, pans, utensils and appliances. We cooked many family meals! The location is very convenient, just a few minutes from beach, shops, restaurants and Peninsula State Park. My only suggestion for this house would be to provide one starter jug of drinking water. The well water is safe to drink but does not taste good. We loved this house and hope to return next summer!

Great place, but expect a lot of spiders. I thought maybe it was just spider season, but we are checked into another Airbnb not that far from this one and there are only a few tiny ones. With an expensive cleaning charge, I would assume pest control is in it.
Dana - Posted: 9/22/2022
Sorry to hear about your experience not meeting your expectations. We have forwarded the concerns of spiders to our management team so we can look into professional services to assist in managing them during this time of the year moving forward. We hope you enjoyed your overall time/stay and that we can host you again.

Review of VRBO home in Ephraim
Lovely, meticulously clean home. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you could need. The beds were comfortable. Very nice washer/Dryer. We did but our own drinking water as faucet water had strange color and taste—only concern.
