Collings Summer House

Jordan, Murphy, and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cottage! It was the perfect size for the three of us and made for an ideal getaway in Ephraim.The property was incredibly clean from the moment we arrived, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining it. The location couldn't have been better—we were able to easily walk to downtown Ephraim to enjoy the shops, restaurants, and waterfront, which made the trip even more relaxing.One of the underrated perks was having dedicated parking. It was so nice not having to worry about finding street parking or moving the car throughout our stay. We also really appreciated how well the air conditioning worked. The cottage stayed at a consistently comfortable temperature, even during the warmer parts of the day.Overall, this was the perfect place for a couple traveling with their dog, and we wouldn't hesitate to book it again the next time we're in Door County. Highly recommend!

This was our first time in Door County and we hit the jackpot. This location is right in the heart of Ephraim so we walked to the beach and coffee shops and saw the sunset all within 5 minute walk from our Airbnb. Perfectly halfway between Fish Creek and Sister Bay so we got to go shop and try out restaurant with being a short 10 minute drive from home. Was special being able to bring our dogs and not have to leave them home.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful spot in Ephraim! Very walkable to shops and restaurants, and right across from the water - great stay, would absolutely stay again next time we're in Door County!

This was my second time staying in this unit and I’m so glad I came back. The first time was such a great experience that I knew when I came back to Door County that I wanted to stay here again. It’s cozy, Ephraim is beautiful, and the unit was well prepped both times I visited. In the last year, it seems like the unit has small enhancements - more cups, cutlery, and other small enhancements. Looking forward to my next trip to Door County and staying here again.

Great location in the heart of DoCo. Easy access to Peninsula, Sister Bay, Fish Creek and more. Great views of the water. Short walk to excellent coffee, food, and the public beach. Dog- and kid-friendly.

Nice place and is in a great location. Parking was a little confusing but overall very nice. I put the pullout mattress on the floor to sleep. Those things are always too lumpy otherwise. It was right next to a coffee shop and a pierogi place and a Mediterranean food place. very good food. Love that area... will go back!

Hello Eric, Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you enjoyed the location and nearby restaurants. We appreciate your feedback about the pullout mattress and parking and will look into ways to make those even better for future guests. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! Warm regards, The Simple Life Rentals Team
