Water's End Cottage
Welcome to this quaint, lakeside cottage at Water’s End. With 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, living room, dining space, and full kitchen, it provides guests all the comforts of home in addition to the amazing setting. Enjoy the quiet serenity of Lake Michigan from the furnished deck, fire pit or bench swing. Experience the beautiful sunrises and incredible night skies that Door County has to offer. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway or convenient home for fishing, this is the spot. Guests can enjoy approximately 140 feet of lakefront property, including access to a large pier. You will fall in love with all that each season has to offer. This home is a short 5-mile drive from downtown Sister Bay, where you will find great shopping, restaurants, beach, kayak/boat rentals, sailing and boat charters, and much more!
We love our family pet dogs and welcome yours too. Your well-behaved dogs are allowed with prior approval. This property allows up to 2 dogs. There is a fee of $45 per dog/per night, which is collected separately and approximately one week prior to your check-in date.
**This is a quiet community with residential neighbors. This home is geared towards quiet family vacations. Due to the proximity of the neighbors, we cannot accommodate bachelor or bachelorette parties, reunions or other rowdy gatherings.

Thanks, Emily!
Quiet Getaway
by Nell I.
Beautiful water front views, and a spacious lawn. located on a dead end road so no traffic noise and it felt safe to walk our dog and enjoy nature, even at night for a potty walk before bed. The house is simple, beds are comfortable and it was charming like my grandmas house but with updated features like WiFi. My family and I had a lovely time on our Door County getaway with this house as a convenient jumping off point to explore the area.
Thank you, Kiri! We are so happy that you and your family had a great stay. It was our pleasure to host you and hope we can do so in the future sometime!
