We Eliminate Stress, our guests are our proof

Awesome hosts and house. Very spacious and comfortable. Pretty lot and wooded surroundings.

- Lisa D

Cottage and Bay was the perfect amount of everything! The house was clean, and easy to get into. The location was perfect! Close to Sister Bay, Ephraim, State parks, and so much more! The home is surrounded by trees, the back yard was perfect for a fire after a long day exploring! The house had all the necessities! The house was clean, with clean linen and towels! There were games to play, cupboards had everything you would have at home! The house could easily be for a big family or a couples get away! The hosts were very responsive and easy to communicate with! There is a gas station 2 blocks away, that has anything you may need or forgotten, with a really quaint restaurant attached, just perfect so convenient! I will be back, next time for a much longer stay! Thank you so much for sharing this special place!

We’ve stayed at a lot of properties up and down the door peninsula and this place is a gem. For our family of 5, it was perfect if not a bit larger than we needed. Plenty of space for everyone. The kids loved the bunk room and provided toys and games. The parents loved the sunroom for nap time reading and relaxation as well as having a more secluded master bedroom. The shower water pressure is unreal! Very private but 3 minutes from the sister bay strip/beach/restaurants. The hosts were fantastic, very accommodating for an unplanned check in and late check out. We come to door a few times a year and this property will be hard to beat. Don’t hesitate, book this place!

- Nick C

Perfect location. Clean, updated home that is secluded and private, away from the hustle and bustle of sister bay, but only a 2 min drive to town.

- Chris J

I’ve stayed at a lot of rentals and this was one of my favorites. Every detail was on point and there was clearly a lot of thoughtful intent with the space. Comfortable beds and excellent water pressure – both of which are super important to us. The property was private but still minutes away from everything. We will definitely be back!

- Melissa B

First, Mitch and Katie were excellent hosts! Great communication and were very quick to answer my questions!

Second, the house was exactly as portrayed on the listing. It was beautifully decorated – many things I would do in my own home. The cabinetry in the kitchen and bathrooms could use an update – vanities are very low. But the kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed. Beds were comfortable and it was great having a room with bunk beds for our 4 kids to share. Our favorite room was the back sunroom.

The location was great driving distance to any of the towns. It was rough being on 57 – couldn’t walk to anywhere or even walk our dogs (the fenced in area for the dogs was awesome, though!).

Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would consider it again in the future!

- Mariya P

We loved Cottage & Bay. It was clean, beautifully decorated, spacious and cozy with a fully appointed kitchen with everything you need to cook, bake and grill. The bathrooms had full sized bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Plenty of extra towels and linens, including beach towels, dishwasher tabs and laundry detergent, all thoughtful touches that made our stay comfortable. The home has plenty of space to hang out and would be a great place to bring your family and still feel like you have enough room. Plenty of parking, too.
We liked the privacy of the property while still being minutes away from everything. We brought our dog and there is nowhere to walk along 57, so we drove 15 minutes to Ellison Bay for beautiful scenery and a peaceful walk. There is a fenced doggie run on the property though.
Check-in and check-out were easy. The hosts provided an electronic guidebook with property and area recommendations. I would love to return and stay here again.

- David C

Great Door County rental! Nicely updated, clean and comfortable! Loved the porch!

- Lisa C

We had a great stay at Cottage and Bay. Everything was as described and the house was very clean. The location is great as well. Easy to find and very close to Sister bay. We would definitely return.

- Rob W

Effortless is the best way I can explain my stay. The hosts did a great job laying things out with their guidebook and were very friendly and responsive. The property was beautiful and provided more than enough space. Would absolutely recommend, and I would love to stay here again.

- Xavier L

Great experience

- Sarah L

Loved the Cottage for a family vacation!! Very nice and comfortable place. Loved the dog run, hiked the property, and enjoyed the heated garage with pool and foosball table. The hosts were very friendly, easy to contact, and responsive! The pathway lights bothered us at night and when we reached out they were able to fix it very quickly. I would stay here again with my family as we had a lot of room to spread out. The one thing I would bring next time or recommend would be having a griddle for breakfast food. Also loved the k cups they provided!!
