Sitting in the back yard listening to the waves, sipping coffee and watching the sunrise are the moments I will always treasure. Visiting the winery and the markets in door county was so fun! We found the best Market was Wienkes, only 1 mile from the house. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Mostly good time
This property is really in a great location and we loved being right by the lake. The home itself was great as far as space went- little short on closet space. We spent much time in the family room. Beautiful views of lake. We however had concerns about some issues like very dirty garbage can in living area-had to bleach it to get rid of smell, bathroom sick was clogged, outdoor grills were both so rusted and dirty that we couldn’t use either. Fire pit was also dirty. When we arrived at home we had to sanitize all the utensils- per notice on refrigerator. So these issues really put a damper on our stay.

Door County Get Away
Wow! We loved the privacy and the amazing view of Lake Michigan. It almost felt like we were on our own island. We sat out every morning drank our coffee and watched the waves roll in. We took advantage of the binocular's and would watch these far away boats on the horizon. Our first steps into the house we knew we would have nothing to worry about. It was clean and had a open feeling to it. Nicely decorated also! We both took advantage of the room with all the dvd's and games. We did peek into the adventure shed and holy cow ! Everything you need for an adventure it was in there. The host was very easy to get in contact with. There also a binder filled with anything you need to know about the cottage on the table. .

Beautiful and tranquil
This property is located on the south end of Door county. The view is gorgeous and it is off a very private road and the neighbors were quiet and respectful of one another. The screened porch was a lovely place to hang out, the kitchen is well equipped, the bedrooms have nice charging ports and the outdoor area is a pleasant oasis. The owner was very responsive to questions. Things to know...cell service and internet is spotty, you are getting away. Plan on games or puzzles or other ways to relax in the evening. The shower is small. Also, while there are kayaks, you will have to get them down some rocks to put in the water- but when you do the water is clear and gorgeous, worth the effort! Overall I would highly recommend this property.

Great view of the lake but did not meet our expectations.
The view of Lake Michigan was amazing! The layout of the backyard was great however it was awfully dangerous to take out the canoe over the retaining wall of rocks. Unfortunately, the backyard was not kept and though we appreciated welcoming our dog to the cottage, it was not relaxing since my dog kept finding trash throughout the yard. There was also a bad odor outside like maybe there was a dead animal so we couldn’t really enjoy sitting outside. The inside of the cabin did not feel very clean either. It was very obvious that many dogs stayed at the cabin in the past. We basically drove an hour or more a day to get to some incredible hikes of Door County and loved all the State Parks especially Peninsula State Park.

For someone who grew on the shores of Lake Michigan, I could not have been in a more perfect spot with my family. We loved the location, the water, the amenities, the short drive to all the fun Door County towns. The house was so cute, and had everything inside and out that a family of 5 would need. I would stay there again in a heartbeat if the opportunity ever presented itself. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Birthday present _ Hidden Shores
We loved each detail of the cabin, from the entrance to the woods to the beautiful and peaceful view of Michigan Lake. We arrived on a rainy cold day, but our time there as we celebrated my birthday felt like a unique experience. We enjoyed the simple design of the space, cozy yet truly ample, the modern well-stack kitchen and warm bedrooms made it also a home, the internet worked perfectly, and from the windows, a gorgeous and endless view of trees and waves that turned into a shimmering landscape with the sun. We spent time inside and outside, we kept warm in front of the fireplace having our dinners and family/board games with our teen daughter who loved the stay and hopes to come back to use the kayak and canoe! "Live life simply," the sign said: a perfect birthday gift for body and soul! Thank you again!

Beautiful lakeshore cottage
My wife and I stayed four rainy days at the cottage. The rental is well equipped, particularly for young active families. The lake is just out the back door, there is a large deck for viewing. The lakeshore is rocky but the water looks shallow with a sandy bottom. We enjoyed warm fires in the fireplace. The cottage is a great location forexploring Door County and nearby Weinke's Market is a wonderful place for local produce and preserves. I think a space heater in the three seasons room would be a welcome addition on colder Fall days.

Amazing view and tons of toys!
This property has one of the best lake views we’ve ever had in a rental property. The outdoor furniture to appreciate said view is top notch. There is a lot of privacy too. The main room. kitchen, and bedrooms have been updated. The bathroom has not but it’s adequate. There are so many toys and amenities for all ages. Extra people could easily crash on the 3 season room comfy couches. Even the driveway has been updated with nice concrete, so you are not looking for a grass driveway like all the instructions say. The only draw back is that the expansive rock sea wall makes it almost impossible to reach the water. I asked the management company if there was another way down but did not get a response. Also if you’re looking to work remotely, this probably isn’t the place for you as the Wi-Fi is pretty weak, even causing streaming channels to freeze quite often. Also- the Keurig is broken. In all it was a very relaxing place and we’d definitely stay here again!
