Really enjoyable stay in a peaceful yet walkable location to downtown Fish Creek. Accommodations were as pictured and the top floor living room was a great place to hang out as a family.

Absolutely loved this property. Great communication with the property manager. The cleanest property I stayed at. Truly enjoyed the unique silo (we called it the princess tower). Highly recommend.

This is our second year in a row staying at the solo guesthouse. It is such a unique place to stay, inside a converted stone silo. It is cozy and in a perfect location for exploring Door County. It’s pretty basic and dated inside, but the 360 view from the top floor can’t be beat. It’s a block from Julie’s for a fantastic breakfast and Wild Tomato for pizza.

Unique property in a great location
We really enjoyed our stay at the silo! Quirky and fun perfect location. Enjoyed coffee in the mornings on the deck and watched an evening storm roll in upstairs in the surround windows. Right next to peninsula state park. 4 adults in our group, bring a hairdryer, kitchen has some basics to cook with (salt, pepper, oils, coffee filters), beds comfortable. We would go back.

Staying at the Silo Guesthouse was awesome! Right next to Peninsula State Park, a block from restaurants, bike rentals, it was amazing how quiet the location was, while being so close to so many resources. Our family of 3 had plenty of space in the silo and we enjoyed the beautiful view from the top floor and the balconies on each level. We had a fire in the fire pit and made s’mores and enjoyed coffee on the deck in the mornings. It was very unique staying in a silo and we would definitely stay again!
