“We booked this stay literally at the last minute when our Airbnb cancelled due to a death in the family and their needing the house we booked. They assisted us in finding this place. We cannot express our gratitude for the assistance. This place is above and beyond what we expected. Spotless, secluded, quiet and beautiful. The walking paths were a plus. It has a two car garage so we could put our car in at night. It looks like it was recently decorated as everything is up to date and tasteful. We had a great stay and would highly recommend it. This cabin is close to everything we wanted to do. Thanks again for making our first time to Door County memorable. I have a hunch it will not be our last trip to Door County!”
