Cute place at a beautiful destination

It was a cute place for my husband and I to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We didn’t realize it was attached to the antique store when booking, but it was very private and comfortable. Ellison Bay was a great place to stay in Door County since it isn’t as big as Sister Bay so it’s quieter. It’s in walking distance to good restaurants and a couple nice coffee shops. It’s a short drive to good hiking and many activities. Great place to stay!

Wonderful stay in Ellison Bay

We spent 3 nights here during Fall Festival. It was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The location was perfect - a short walk to a couple restaurants but not in the middle of all the Sister Bay festival traffic. Although we've been coming to Door for many years - Darla gave us some helpful advice on when to avoid the major crowds over the Festival weekend. Only thing that was a little disappointing was no fire allowed in the fireplace. I get it, it can make a mess and if guests don't know how to work a flue it could be a problem. But that was a small thing - really great stay overall!

Anniversary Trip to Door County

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in Ellison Bay. This was a kid free anniversary trip for us and we found the property perfect for the two of us. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, and we took advantage of the stocked board games and dvd collection. The weather was rainy and overcast for most of our 3 day stay, but we stayed very busy hopping all around the county and found the location was great as a home base. We ate next door at the Mink River Basin one night and thought the food was very good. Two coffee shops less than a minute walk and the beach is very close as well.
