We had the loveliest stay at this sweet cabin and will definitely make this our go-to spot to stay next time we’re in Door County. The house was even more charming and spacious than in the photos. Its location in Ephraim is perfect - it’s very walkable, just moments away from great coffee, restaurants, and shops, and the water which is directly across the street (which you have a view of from inside the home), and just a short drive to Sister Bay and other stunning nearby villages in Door County. The house was incredibly cozy, clean, and comfortable. It’s located on a main road but set back from the street and we didn’t notice any traffic noise at all. We found the location and property to be perfect in every way.

What a lovely cabin in a serene Door County setting! Great location and easy to get to with great parking and walkable access to so much. Amenities in the house were great with everything we needed. Comfy beds and space to hang out. Very cute house, perfect for a couple or small family. A little expensive for a few days stay but a memorable trip.

My favorite Ephraim place to stay
Our family has stayed at Collings Log House multiple times. And we keep returning. Its location is perfect, surroundings serene, the cabin just the right size for us. With multiple visits, we feel like “we’re home” when we arrive. Communication is quick between the management and ourselves when needed. I’m now plotting when I can return….happiest holidays to you and yours.

Our 2 night stay was amazing! we brought our puppy on her first vacation and the house was set up wonderfully for our needs. The master bedroom has a doorway to the outside, which helped when we needed to get up in the middle of the night to let our dog outside without waking others. the entire house was clean, organized and even had everything you could imagine you might need, if you forget something. we really enjoyed how easy this place was to book, access and check out of.

We stayed at this excellent cottage during Ephraim’s Fyr Bal festival and we were so happy to walk to all the festivities.
When we arrived we were surprised to find lots of games, books and fun things for my 6 year old to do during our stay.
The rooms were much larger than they appear in the photos. We were able to fit a pack n play in the king bedroom.
The kitchen was well appointed as was the bathroom. And everything was so clean.
Our walk to the beach was so short and we enjoyed spending time out in the yard to see the sunsets.
We would definitely rent again.

Wonderful cottage.

Comfortable throughout.
Beautiful & homey with lots of special details and amenities. Kitchen well appointed. All the rooms functioned nicely for relax, having a snack, playing games or taking a quite nap.
Setting was very nice set amongst a well designed and very well done landscape, with flowering shrubs, perennials, trees, areas to sit and relax. Especially love the Adirondack Chairs over looking views to the bay. Quintessential Door County.
Loved it! Thank you for the opportunity to visit.

Location is amazing! This was our first summer in Door County and this Cottage was perfect for us. Downtown Ephraim had so much to offer. There is a spot in the Cabin where you can see through to the water and the view of the sailboats on the water was breathtaking. You are only minutes away from shops, restaurants and Peninsula State park (which was also amazing). I cannot say enough good things- wonderful!

The location is pretty much impossible to beat. Enough space for my family of five and a clean rental. It would have been nice to receive the welcome email more than 90 minutes prior to check in as there is pertinent information needed to enjoy one’s trip fully (such as you need to bring your own beach towels). Aside from that, everything was perfect!

Our 3 night stay at the cottage in Ephraim was perfect. My husband and I stayed in the cottage with my parents and their golden retriever. The size of the cottage was perfect for the 4 of us plus the dog. It was clear during our stay that the owners went above and beyond with anticipating their guests needs. The cottage had a stocked kitchen, a full sized fridge, dog bowls, plenty of extra blankets, so many games and activities- and our favorite was a dog toy left as a gift. We’d stay here again and again!

We had a great stay with our infant son at Collings Cottage. The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and having access to laundry was great! The location is fantastic. It is a short walk to Ephraim's downtown and short drive to Fish Creek and Sister Bay. We loved our stay in Door County and would highly recommend Collings Cottage to anyone.

Cute, cozy, and clean
This place was so cute, cozy and clean and in a great location. The layout was nice and had a decent amount of space for my group. I was originally a little annoyed about the additional cleaning fee per pet per night but they definitely do a great job cleaning and you’d never know that pets have been there.

Perfect spot
The Collings Cottage was the perfect spot for our Door County get-away. Accommodations were very comfortable and perfectly sized for my wife and I. Kitchen was well equipped, even though we only made breakfast in the morning. Really appreciated the books and board games to fill the time relaxing.

What a cozy peaceful cottage right across the street from the Bay. It has a well stocked kitchen with everything you could ever need to cook. There is also a Weber Grill in the backyard. Nicely decorated and very comfortable . Short walk to Wilson’s and the public beach. We had so much fun and found the cottage such a relaxing sanctuary in the evening watching the sun go down over the Bay from the large living room window . It’s very dog and kid friendly. Many games and toys, paper and art supplies and even a towel for our Golden Retriever Dewey. We look forward to coming back again . It was exactly what our family needed.

Great location and well equipped log cabin that is pet friendly. Had an awesome family weekend there. There are two cabins with the same address that belong to the same owner (one bigger one smaller) which was a bit confusing at first. Can definitely recommend, though!!

Fantastic Place
This is a great property. Very clean, well-appointed in every aspect, and in a great location. Easy area to walk or just sit on the front porch and enjoy. The home itself was spotless. The beds were comfortable, as was the rest of the furniture. We had to leave early due to my mother not feeling well. The management company was amazing to work with and very kind. We'd stay here again for sure.

Lovely but…
The cabin was well-equipped, especially the kitchen and there was obvious care taken to provide a quality kitchen: double oven, GE profile refrigerator, gas cook top, garbage disposer, solid wood cabinetry, designer drawer pulls. The outdoor space was inviting. Whoever is responsible for cleaning and small maintenance items is failing to do an adequate job. All of the obvious cleaning was done; however, the lamps, fans, vents, door jams, etc. had quite a bit of dust. Likewise, light bulbs were burned out and there were no replacements available. To better keep the cabin clean, a broom and dust pan would have been nice. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again, as well as recommending it to friends. As a premier property, cleaning and maintenance should, however, be top notch.

Great house, property and location! Nice view of the water from the front porch and windows. Nice seating outside with zero gravity chairs and outdoor table! Queen bed was firm and comfy, the smaller two a bit softer. Quiet considering it was on the main road but set back from the street. Great gardens all around. Looking forward to another stay. Overall fantastic place!

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was clean, spacious, comfortable, centrally located. Our family of 3 was so grateful for our time there. The washer/dryer was a lifesaver for us, with a kid who seems to go through several changes of clothes per day. The kitchen was excellent . . . Great fridge and stove. Perfect for our eat-in breakfasts and a dinner eaten in. Thanks for a perfect place to stay for our Door County getaway

Charming!
Wow! The cabin is so charming. I cannot say enough about this rental. It exceeded our expectations. I do wish they had a gas fire pit out back to take in the beautiful surroundings at night but it was not a deal killer by any means. The location was excellent in the fact that it was a great starting point every day to cover the peninsula. I have already recommended this location to several people. Thanks for contributing to our restful vacation.

Great Stay
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay this August. The cabin was perfectly located in Ephraim. I enjoyed sitting on the front porch with my coffee every morning. We walked to restaurants and the small beach. It is difficult to find wheelchair accessible places to rent. This cabin was almost perfect for my paraplegic husband, he could not access the shower. But we still enjoyed our family time. Thank you. Kristy

Nice weekend away.
Lovely property, in a great location to get to the state park nearby. My complaints are few and small. The beds were so soft, but not in a good way. It was like they were old and/or just very low quality. I also found it strange that there weren’t any paper towels in the kitchen or Kleenex in the bathroom. Other than that, the property was very nice.
Brenda G. - Posted: 8/11/2020
Brenda, I'm so glad you enjoyed the property! Thank you for your review. I do apologize about no paper towels or Kleenex, usually these are staples in the house.

What a terrific house! Great location in Ephraim, and perfect layout for our family of 4. We walked to town every night and were centrally located to the other nearby Villages. The property is beautiful and you can glimpse the sunset from across the street! 42 can be a bit busy/noisy, but the house is far enough back from the street that it never feels unsafe. Would definitely rent again!

Cute cabin in Ephraim, great location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend away in Ephraim, Door County, and it was largely because of our stay in this comfortable and cute cabin!! The cabin was just as pictured, and the location was super convenient to shops and restaurants. The grill and proximity to the lake were highlights. Only wish was that the kitchen was a *bit* more stocked with basics, such as cooking oil, salt and pepper! Otherwise, perfect stay!
