9 ladies and I stayed at this Baileys Harbor house when we ran the Door County Fall 50. There was plenty of space for everyone. It was a less than 30 min drive to our start line in Gill’s Rock and just about 40 mins from Sturgeon Bay, where we finished. We were a bit concerned that there wouldn’t be enough hot water for all of us to shower after our cold and rainy run, but we all had ample hot water to arm up and feel refreshed! Like other reviews said, bring more toilet paper! There was definitely not enough for the amount of people staying in the house. It would be nice just to have been offered an extra roll or two for each bathroom considering the amount of guests that the house holds. The weather was not very pleasant when we were here but we all said it would’ve been nice to enjoy the decks, outdoor space, and fire pit. Also, we all said this would be a great house to bring our kids and spouses to since it was a very kid friendly space (bikes, swingset, bunk beds, toys) and close to so many things that Door County has to offer!

We had a great time! The house was clean and conveniently located. The beds were very comfortable as was the couch! The only thing is we wish we knew ahead of time that we needed to bring our own toilet paper!

Wonderful stay at a great property in a great location! Very clean and well kept house. Plenty of room for the eight of us. We walked and biked to the quaint Baileys Harbor. Sitting on the 2 porches enjoying our tasty beverages was very relaxing. We could even hear and see lake Michigan!

We all enjoyed our stay in the home and having a fire in the backyard. The property is nestled in a wooded area. It is a nice short walk to restaurants and a small beach. This was a first stay in a VRBO and we didn't know that we had to bring our own supplies, like toilet paper so had to go buy some. Outdoor furniture on the decks is dated ie, plastic chairs and patio chairs that rock too far backward. Some of the rules dont feel very welcoming.

This home was beautiful, well kept and felt like a home - not just a hotel stay. The decor was very welcoming. All the things listed as being there, were there, like toys, towels, games, books, nice patio furniture, etc.
patios were great to relax and have dinner on.
We had a couple questions and the hosts were very responsive. I would definitely stay here again!

This property fit our group of 9 perfectly.We enjoyed the outside decks for evening relaxing as well as the back yard fire pit. Clean house with perfect amenities. Tad bit farther from town than I thought but no big deal. Highly recommend

It was a wonderful weekend for a family wedding at the golf course nearby, the property was closer than we thought. The house was very clean and able to accommodate our family.

Property was nice, clean, spacious, easy to find.
Wish it would have had wifi and better cell phone reception. The cell phone reception was available only in certain spots in the home. Also, we could not get the direct TV dish to work. The system kept asking us to log into the account to re-activate?
4.9
The location is excellent and very close to town. The open floor plan is great between the kitchen, dining and family room. Make note that there is no Wi-Fi, adults were fine with this but the kids not so much. Overall, great time.

We had a wonderful trip to Door County! The house was clean and had what we needed for our stay. The owners were quick to answer my questions through the VRBO app. Our group of six (mom, sister-in-law, three sisters and myself) agreed we would stay here again if given the chance.

The whole family, young and old, enjoyed the experience. Great 'stuff' for the kids, roomy interior very nice deck where we at most of our meals. Location was also great. We went to Sister Bay to swim, Bailey's Harbor to eat, rode bikes walked in the woods. All very nice and enjoyable. We did have a bit of trouble with the dishwasher. Sometimes it ran through but had not washed. We discovered you had to punch the buttons just right.
We all had a very nice time.

Thank you for sharing your home. The property was VERY kid-friendly, including: outdoor playset, adult and kid picnic tables, child locks on cabinets, toy box in living room, kid DVDs, outdoor toys, and children's books in the kid bedroom. We stayed with another family and everyone was comfortable with plenty of room.

My husband and I stayed at the house with our daughter, her husband and 4 children. The children ranged in age from 2 to 8. This was the perfect house for children. There were enough beds for everyone to sleep comfortably. The yard with the playset and woods was perfect for exploring and playing. The street was very quiet so the 5, 7 and 8 year olds could ride their bikes. We didn't let them ride into town but adults could definitly make the ride. We did walk to town more than once. The house was well equiped with toys, games, puzzles and books for the children. We had a great time.

We came for a weekend getaway with a few other couples. Slept 8 of us comfortably. Yard was perfect for some yard games. Briefly met one of the neighbors who was sweet as can be. Perfect place to unplug. Bring some extra toilet paper as not much was supplied for a group our size. Would definitely go back.

I don't like to give negative reviews, and overlook annoyances in most cases. However, I appreciate honest reviews (good or bad), when deciding on a rental. In speaking with the owner during the week we were there, he assured me that what we experienced in regard to cleanliness and repair issues were anomalies. I trust what he said, but feel obligated to share our experience.We arrived before our friends and their family, and were greeted by many bugs in the house, alive and dead, as well as the smell of wet charcoal in the garage. One of the two bathrooms was missing its toilet paper roll holder, the light switch for the chandelier over the kitchen table was broken and unusable, the upstairs smoke alarm had its battery compartment left open to reveal a missing battery, there were cob webs in the light fixtures, and there was no toilet paper. Fortunately, we brought our own toilet paper and paper towels, as well as Lysol and Clorox wipes (COVID-19 traveling essentials). We sat on each of the beds to find hard mattresses in all the bedrooms.Embarrassed that we selected this rental for our trip with friends, we began killing flying insects and spiders, and cleaning the house. It seemed like it hadn't received a decent cleaning recently. Even most of the dishes were dusty. We put the essential ones through the dishwasher.Whoever cleans this house did not check to ensure that the refrigerator had been emptied. There was partially consumed food left from someone before us, and half empty bottles of alcohol on the counters. I dumped all the garbage left behind and took it to the trash container outside.Once our friends arrived, it was a nightly task to kill the flying insects. Even though we strictly enforced quick closure of the two doors leading outside, they somehow found their way into the house. Then we discovered we could only get about two showers in before having to wait for the water to heat up again.We dealt with the small kitchen, the lack of wi-fi and cell reception in the house (which we were aware of when booking), and hung an extra blanket over the sliding glass doors to the decks, since the curtains didn't close all the way.We planned this last-minute trip, having stayed in the region 6 weeks prior in an excellent VRBO. Even if we hadn't, this was a disappointment. Hopefully it truly was an anomaly and your experience is better.The bikes, fire pit & location were great, as were scenic walks along the lake.

Nice home
Though cell service was almost nonexistent, the homeowners were quick to reply to our needs. There wasn't any wifi, which for us wasn't helpful, and should be stressed in description. One of the neighbors near the home were very rude. Nice home with a nice piece of property near the water. We would stay there again.

July 20 to 26 2020 family vacation!
Mostly very good! The wood cost was an added surprise and expense. It was very good until the last night where bugs infestated the master bedroom. It was expensive, but was a lifetime memory!

Door county vacation
