It's a simple 2 step process to book your stay. First fill in your dates, number of guests, and hit the "check availability / request to book" button. You will then receive a confirmation that your dates are available and you can pay with Credit Card, Venmo, or Zelle. You can also book on VRBO or AirBnB, if you prefer.

Unique setting on Sand Bay among cedar trees and awe inspiring views! Open concept kitchen with quality appliances and large island leads into dining and "infinity" great room, overlooking the bay. Comfortable bedrooms, beautiful bathrooms, and private waterfront patio for grilling, deck for lounging, and fire pit for chilling.

Enjoy swimming and lounging from the property or great public beaches, golf, parks, cherry viewing/picking, hiking, biking, dining, shopping close by.

Ample room for lawn games, volleyball, roasting marshmallows over the waterfront fire pit, cooking on the gas or charcoal grill, and eating on the patio complete with a retractable awning! Garage converted to a rec room for additional sitting space.

The water typically is warm enough for comfortable swimming by mid summer. Our shore is a sand and rock mix, so be sure to bring water shoes if you plan to swim.

Please be sure to indicate in your reservation if you plan to bring a dog so that you are charged properly and so that we are prepared.

Head to Sturgeon Bay and don't miss the Saturday morning Farmer's Market in summer! Throughout the year, you can stroll through downtown and enjoy great shopping, food, and drinks. Be sure to walk across the steel bridge and enjoy the great views of nature, yachts, industry, and the wonderful collection of people that live in and visit this special place.

Viewing the North Pierhead lighthouse by walking out on the break wall jutting into Lake Michigan on the north side of the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal can make for a memorable experience and should not be missed. This may be the more photogenic place in all of Door County!

Don't miss Potawatomi State Park if you are looking for mountain biking, a boat launch, an invigorating hike (Hemlock Trail) or a challenging ski when there is snow.

Give our friends at Wacky Walleye a call if you are looking for a guided fishing experience on the water or on the ice.

Looking for a beach? Head to Haines County Park, just a mile away. The sand, sun, and water can not be beat here. This is a real Door County treasure!

Of course, you can always head north of Sturgeon Bay if you are looking for more shopping, dining, hiking, and beautiful shorelines.

Looking for additional space? We are currently preparing a new waterfront house 3 miles away for rentals! This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is brand new and can accommodate 10.

Great place to stay. We were able to see the Northern Lights from the deck. We spent lots of time in the backyard enjoying the shore scenery. Plenty of space to accommodate large group though we had 3 adults +dog. Would definetly recommend.

Water view
Water access was too rocky for our dog's 1st experience going into the water. He is a 4 1/2 month old yellow lab being raised for hunting and that was a disappointment. We drove elsewhere to find suitable water for him. Yard needed mowing.Coffee pot had not been cleaned prior to our arrival. Still had the basket with coffee grounds in it. Items had been left in the refrigerator and we left those when we left. Did love watching the geese in the morning. The firepit was a disappointment as it was not actually a pit.himyarcoukd have used mowing

Response:Really appreciate the feedback. Clearly the coffee maker should have been cleaned out before your arrival and we are addressing this. The Renards cheese in the refrigerator was a gift for you and the ketchup and mustard/condiments were left as a convenience for you. We believe this is part of a well stocked kitchen. Sorry for any misunderstanding there. Most pups, love our beach and yard, not to mention the amazing sunsets and beautiful and expansive views, we’re sorry that yours didn’t. We are always striving to exceed expectations so thank you again for the feedback, it’s helpful.

Family Vacation
We had the best week here! The waterfront access was perfect and the outdoor space was fantastic. We spent the week paddle boarding and kayaking, having s’mores, playing yard games. The house was clean and very well stocked with plenty of kitchen tools and gadgets that made it very easy for us to cook all of our meals there.I would highly suggest this property if looking for somewhere to stay in the area!

We would definitely stay here again. It was quiet and peaceful. We saw a bald eagle and their juvenile a number of times, families of loons and other birds. The weather didn’t cooperate to take advantage of the kayaks and water activities. We used the fire pit and enjoyed the fire and seeing all the stars. Very easy access to Door County.

Great stay!
We had a great second vacation with our kids to Scott’s property! The house is cozy but also had plenty of space for our 4 adults and 3 kids (3, 5, and 7). The kids especially liked how far you could wade out without needing to know how to swim well. We really enjoyed the kayaks and paddle board. The sunset over the water is so special - as is the fact that one whole side of the property is undeveloped. It was a fun and memorable trip!

Stayed here for 4 nights with my family (2 small kids - 3 and 5 years old) and dog, we had an amazing time. Waterfront property was excellent and bedrooms/bathrooms were perfect for the family. Would recommend for anyone staying with a family/small kids.

Peaceful
Peaceful and quiet location. It takes a while to get to the house from the main highway. The views of the lake and sunsets are amazing. The house is equipped well, inside and out and very clean inside. I wish there was a little more upkeep of the outside of the house as it was covered with tiny bugs. I also wish the entrance to the lake was less rocky and cleaner. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the owner was very responsive.
