Perfect waterfront, family-friendly cottage. Walking distance to all the great spots in downtown Sister Bay. Beautiful sunset views. Easy fishing off the backyard’s waterfront edge. Comfortable, neat home. We loved it!

Our family had a great visit to Sister Bay and Captain’s Cottage. Adam and Brigid have done a great job with the property and staying waterfront is such an amazing experience. The house had everything we needed- it was my wife, me, our 3 kiddos (7 and under) and my parents. We were plenty comfortable. Highly recommend.

The house is in immaculate condition. The updates are well thought out and very pretty. We enjoyed being out in the back yard and loved that we could walk to our favorite Sister Bay spots. With no dock, we rented a slip at the nearby marina and it was perfect. We had all the housewares, linens and supplies we needed.

Lovely in town location Torn whether we would Return to this home simply because it’s someone run down. Not bad but for this price we expected more

We loved staying there, location amazing, house was so cute and comfy. Wish there was a pier but being on lake was still amazing. We were disappointed that our time was already booked for the following year before we even left and had a chance to rebook. We looked again for another time and price has gone up so significantly, which is great for them but not for us. Overall amazing property and home. Hopefully we can stay again some time.

We had the most amazing time at the Captain’s cottage! It was the perfect setup for our family! Kids ages 3 and 1 and the cottage had it all! Crib, pack & play, booster seat, & wonderful toys! We enjoyed a lot of time outside watching the boats go by, making s’mores, and enjoying the beautiful sunset. The cottage is equipped with everything you could need! The location is fantastic and in walking distance to everything Sister Bay has to offer. We cannot wait to go back! Thank you so much to the wonderful hosts that have turned this old cottage into a Serena & Lily catalogue shoot! We loved everything about it!

The property is beautiful. We had a great time. Our party consisted of 4 children aged 1 to 6 and 5 adults. It was a great experience for all of us. I was able to teach my grandson how to fish right out in the back yard. Can't say enough.

Perfect!

We could not have asked for a better stay. The house was so large and accommodating for our 10 person group. The location is so close to all of the bars in sister Bay and was perfect for fall fest weekend. I honestly thought when I booked it that this place was going to be too good to be true end it was everything they described it to be an morn. Highly, highly, highly recommend this stay if you have a large group and you plan on Sister Bay night life

The area was so beautiful, the home was comfortable and all of our family members enjoyed the stay.

The experience, from start to finish, of renting this house was above expectations. My family wanted (actually needed) a quiet, clean and comfortable place to recharge after the past year and a half of stress. Adam's house fit the bill perfectly! Attention to detail (even leaving a gift basket that took into consideration a peanut allergy in the group) was noticed and so appreciated. The house is just steps away from 'downtown' Sister Bay, yet at night there was peace...the only sounds that of the waves lapping against the shore. We certainly hope to enjoy their hospitality again...and HIGHLY recommend this property if you need a place to relax, reconnect and/or use as a base to explore other parts of Door County.

Perfect location, great remodeled home with all the needed things for a family vacation. The extra bathroom is great and the crib with changing table was great for our little guy. I could stay all summer if I could afford it. The yard, outdoor furniture, grills and solo stove were a bonus for my husband. We would go every year if we could secure a week. The hosts are kind, thoughtful with added touches and quick to respond. The only concern for some is there is limited parking but it was not an issue for our family.

The owners have created a perfect place to enjoy Sister Bay and the rest of Door County. They have attended to every detail you would want in a vacation rental, from bedding to towels to laundry and more. The deck opening to priceless views of the bay and sunsets was a favorite family place, and being able to grill and use the flat top provided family meals to remember. The renovations to the home in the baths and kitchen were first class, and the ability to be able to walk into Sister Bay gave us many opportunities to explore and eat! Adam responded to questions we had promptly----you could not ask for better owners.

This home has been fully renovated and the owners have been careful to consider what a renter would enjoy while staying at this property. The home is well stocked and they made sure to make us feel welcome with a gift basket upon arrival. Adam is quick to respond and we as a family would rate this home as our favorite place to stay in Door County. We enjoyed the beach, nightly sunsets, and the walkability make this a real plus.

The property has been renovated and is quite comfortable. Well stocked. Plenty of bedding and towels. The location could not be better for walking into town. There is ample deck furniture for sitting outside.

This property is everything we were looking for. Plenty of room for our family, on the water, and walking distance to the beach. The house was newly renovated and nicely furnished. They thought of everything, including games/puzzles and a crib for the 18 month old. We had a wonderful time.

A beautiful home in a perfect location in Sister Bay. Lots of space. Great western bay exposure. Everything you need in a vacation home.

Enjoyed a week long stay recently with my family- there were 8 of us -me, husband, 3 kids (ages 15, 11 and 10), their 80 year old grandmother, my brother and adult niece. The house was perfect for our group. The owners have done a great job renovating this adorable cottage ON Sister Bay. We could Walk to the Marina and Al Johnson’s, tons of shopping, bowling at Sister Bay Bowl and nightly music at Husby’s. The home is nestled discreetly between other more showy homes, but don’t let the modest curb-side appearance fool you. It’s roomy and well-decorated inside with incredible water views. The backyard has stone steps right down into the water. There is a pedal boat for guests’ use and life jackets provided in the hall closet. The sunset views are spectacular. We enjoyed waking up to the incredible views and watching the sunset from the living room or dining table. The well-appointed kitchen made it possible for us to cook almost all our meals at home. Which was ideal during Covid-times. My mom said that cooking and sharing meals around the large eat-in kitchen counter was her favorite part. The owners have decorated the home beautifully. They have provided everything you can think of- cabinet full of board games for the kids, soaps and even q-tips in the bathrooms, s’mores forks for the fire pit, a full crib and changing station for babies/toddlers and the home even features a baby gate to keep kids safe around the sunken living room steps. We would definitely love to stay here again- if they’re not already booked up!

Six of us (ages 10-82) stayed for 9 nights and everyone had a fantastic time. The owners have done a substantial amount of work to the property and it shows. The kids loved the paddleboat and fishing off the back yard and we all enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and all the restaurants. The house and location were perfect and the owners were great to work with. We hope to return next summer!
