“There is no place in the state with a better sand beach than this. The house has plenty of space to spread out. It was well equipped with beach supplies including chairs, wetsuits, kayaks and kid toys. Many thoughtful touches like phone chargers, foot wash station and the best welcome basket I have seen. View was exceptional - the eagle who stayed perched in the pine tree next door thought so too.”

“The property was amazing and comfortable. We felt extremely welcome and would love to return! The welcome gifts were a nice touch. It was a dream to have a lovely fire on the beach.”

“Door County Anniversary Getaway Lily Bay Lodge was home for 4 nights in early October for my husband and I and our two small dogs. We wanted someplace special for our anniversary and this location was perfection! Our stay couldn't have been any better! We appreciated the kindness of the owner ... it is obvious they care tremendously about the property. The accommodations were comfortable for us and our pups. Everything was clean and worked well. The fenced in yard for the dogs was great! The beach and the view were amazing... we were up early every morning to watch the sunrise! We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a special stay in DC!”
