The space
Tucked away in a quiet corner of Door County, our condo lets you enjoy more than 1600 square feet of comfort and privacy. Sit on the balcony and enjoy water views with amazing sunsets over Hedgehog Harbor. Relax next to the gas fireplace in a living room furnished for comfort and read a book from our small library, or play some of the games provided, or watch live TV, or stream your favorite shows using the Roku guest access. Cook your own meals in one of the best equipped kitchens you'll find. We provide a Vitamix blender, an Instant Pot, a slow cooker, a waffle iron, bakeware, cookware, dishes, silverware, storage baggies, a regular coffee maker and a Keurig. If you don't want to cook you can eat next door at the Shoreline Restaurant where chef Bob can prepare something from their mouth-watering menu. The master bath has an amazing double-head shower with massage settings and both baths have hand-held shower devices. The 2 bedrooms and one flex room are furnished with comfortable beds--one king and two queens--and the master bedroom has a TV with Roku streaming and live TV.

There is a park and playground across the road with a hiking/snowmobile trail behind it--a great place to walk Fido. Death's Door Senic Boat Tours, Charlie's Smokehouse, a bakery, a coffee shop, several gift shops, and beach access are walking distance away. The ferry to Washington Island (and the famous curvy road) is only a 2-minute drive away. There is also a small marina and a nearby boat launch. Our location is peaceful and quiet but easy driving distance from Ellison Bay (10 mins), Sister Bay (15 mins), Bailey's Harbor (20mins), Ephraim (20 mins), FIsh Creek (25 mins) and more.

Guest access
The condo is located on the second floor with easy access using stairs or an elevator. Parking is free.

Other things to note
Our condo is a wonderful place to gather with friends, family, children, and dogs. We want you to have fun exploring Door County and to feel cozy, comfortable, and spoiled during your stay. We stayed in this unit several times a year for several years before we purchased it because we love the location, the feel, and the views. When we saw it was for sale in 2023, we snatched it up and now look forward to sharing the magic of this special place with others.
