Jackpot in Sister Bay

Perfect stay from start to finish. Hands down one of the nicest rental homes we’ve ever stayed in, and truly a one of a kind in Door County. The location is unbeatable, to have a private home in the woods walking distance to downtown Sister Bay. Very thoughtful amenities in the home made for an effortless stay, like the Bluetooth speakers, chargers, games, and the pack n play and kids toys. We will definitely be back!

Great Stay!

Our young family of 4 and furry friend, enjoyed our stay. We were pleasantly surprised how much we enjoyed the modern layout of the home, and found it comforting and restful with the snowy landscape surrounding us. It was a great place to just stay inside and enjoy rest as a family, yet with easy access to restaurants as well. The large windows let in light and made one feel pleasantly secluded in nature. It was hard to see the trails in the snow, but we enjoyed walking through the property and exploring. It was very clean, had games and some interesting books to look through, and a retro keyboard and arcade games the kids enjoyed. We appreciated the effort put into the artistic style of the home, down to the mugs. The only recommendations we have are to include bars of soap for each bathroom, to have some tea bags available (we purchased some and left a few), a tea kettle for the stove (the hot pot looked like it was misused for making coffee), and metal pots that don't use anti-stick coating (they're toxic and worrisome to use).

Great Expectations, Mixed Realities

We had a good, though not great, stay at this property. Its location is fantastic—just minutes from Sister Bay’s marina and downtown, making exploration easy. The game room was a fun addition for family time, and the outdoor fire table was perfect for relaxing in the evenings. The large dining room table comfortably accommodated everyone for meals and games. However, there were a few quirks to get used to. The number of light switches was overwhelming, and it wasn’t always clear which switch controlled which light. The heating and cooling system, using ductless wall mounts and electric heat, kept the place cozy but required some balancing. There are stairs to the downstairs area, which were challenging for our “seasoned” family members, as well as steps from the main entry to the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Notable Maintenance Issues 1. Blocked Dryer Vent: The dryer indicated a 90% blocked vent. Despite contacting the assistant property manager, no maintenance arrived. My husband confirmed it was clogged, so we couldn’t do any more laundry due to fire risks. 2. Hot Tub Issues: The hot tub, initially fine, had cloudy water and an odd odor by Day 2. We were told an emergency cleaning would cost $200 and wouldn’t be ready until the evening. There were no visible chemicals for maintenance, raising health concerns, and the assistant property manager couldn't specify what was used. She promised to follow up but never did, leaving the hot tub unusable.
