About this house rental
Beautiful new home built in 2016 with 5 bedroom 3 bathroom near Lake Michigan.
Come enjoy Door County's quiet side and still be close to the hustle and bustle of the peninsula. Enjoy a morning on the deck sipping coffee with the birds chirping and the sun coming up over the trees but be careful this place has a way of tranquilizing you and morning can quickly turn to afternoon. The panoramic view with floor to ceiling windows allows you to view nature at its finest. Almost every morning you will be greeted by the deer as they graze in the surrounding fields. Turkeys as the make there way across the land. And brown sand hill cranes frequent this area. Along with many birds, squirrels and an occasional rabbit.
Located in the farm country of Clay Banks just a short distance from Lake Michigan is our “Clay Banks Retreat.” Here you will enjoy a spacious, 3500 square foot custom designed retreat with all the amenities of home. Four bedrooms, 3 with queen beds, and one with a king! The spacious design boasts a sunroom with front door thats open to the great room with cathedral ceilings and large panoramic windows and a 55” Smart TV. The huge custom designed and built dining room table easily seats 12! A full chef’s kitchen with black cherry cabinets, a farm sink, granite countertops and slate stainless steel appliances will make you never want to leave. Large pantry for storage. Take a look around, you can see the black cherry and ash woodwork which was cut and logged from this very property in 2005. The walkout lower level features a large family room with a 50” smart TV and two bedrooms,, two full bathrooms and the bunk room.
Included with the Clay Banks Retreat is wireless WIFI, Netflix, a fire pit and all kitchen appliances (Keurig, Mr Coffee type coffee maker, griddle, toaster, mix master, electric frying pan, crock pot, washer and dryer and a gas grill and fire table on the deck).
Less than an hour from Lambeau Field and only a short drive from Northern Door County the Clay Banks Retreat is the perfect place to spend your vacation, the only regret you’ll have here is that you have to leave! T

The house was honestly the cleanest rental I have ever been in! The property was beautiful! The host was quick to respond as well! Overall great experience!

The house was very clean, so well stocked and sitting on an absolutely beautiful piece of God’s Country. The location was great for visiting the bustling door county peninsula during the day and then returning to peace and quiet at night. Great beach just down the road with a wonderful sunrise each morning!

We had a wonderful weekend staying at this property. It was clean, in a great location and slept all 16 of us very comfortably. We were just outside of the hustle and bustle of Door County, just 2 miles from a beach but also close enough that it took only 20min+ to get into town and enjoy those areas. We utilized the outdoor games available. The host was prompt on answer any and all questions.

We’ve stayed in five different homes in the area and this is by far the best! Immaculately kept, great location and welcoming host. Couldn’t have been better!

This home is beautiful, peaceful, and so well suited for the needs of all ages. A main floor with a walk in shower for the great grandparents to the downstairs super fun bunkbed room with beanbag chairs for the kids, very comfortable gathering areas indoor and outdoor, and indoor and outdoor games suited to bringing the generations together, this was a home we so enjoyed for our reunion. The kitchen is very well stocked for your cooking needs, and Darelynn is such a gracious host who has added the thoughtful touches to make your stay more comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

We had the best time in Door County and Clay Bank’s Retreat made all the difference since it is big enough for our group. All the things that we might need for meal prep, cooking, cleaning, laundry, trip to the beach, games are all available. The host is gracious to let us have an early check - in. We definitely rate this property 10/10!

This property is perfect for a large group and in a great location in Door County, close enough to Sturgeon Bay but feels secluded when you are there. The house itself is nicely furnished with a great kitchen for all cooking needs. Our group would definitely stay again.

We can't say enough about what a great property this is. We were nine women who spent five days enjoying Door County, and this house was perfect. Gorgeous house, large yard with a fire pit. Plenty of beds and bathrooms, all immaculate. Our Host was very helpful with recommendations, communication was easy, and everything went smoothly.
We would definitely book this property again.

My husband and I booked this wonderful home to spend some time with our 3 grown children and their families - there were 13 of us all together. The house , property and amenities were perfect for us. We had plenty of room and the kids loved the bunk room. The house was so well stocked! Plenty of everything you could think of including all kinds of indoor and outdoor games. We had a great time exploring Doir County and then coming back to hang out at the house.

Lots of space, very clean, lots of wildlife, and great location. We left behind our child's beloved stuffed animal and the owner graciously mailed it back.

From the moment we turned down the driveway we felt welcome. In every part of this beautiful space, both indoors and out were places to gather, sit and enjoy. The house was so well equipped from the kitchen, the bathrooms to the cozy sleeping spaces. The pool table was hit with young and old. And the rousing games of Corn Hole, bean bag toss were great fun. Quiet conversations were had both around the fire table on the deck and the great fire pit in the yard. The welcome book was filled with all the pertinent details for a great stay and Darelynn was available for any questions we had. We enjoyed our time all together in this wonderful home. Thanks for making it available to share and the memories made will last a lifetime.

This property is fantastic! The host has thought of every detail. The house is fully stocked. We had a group of 15 people and it was a great size for our group- plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. We had 7 kids and they loved sleeping in the bunk bed room together. The pool table was a hit with everyone. The host has so many indoor and outdoor games that the group was well entertained throughout our stay.

We got together with family (14 members) for parents 50th Wedding Anniversary. Property was beautiful and home was absolutely perfect. Bedrooms were perfect for everyone. Bunk room for the grandkids was wonderful. Home was stocked with everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this property. Location was perfect. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Door County Towns, but close enough to all the amenities they provide.

Wonderful place to host a big gathering!
Clay Banks Retreat is an amazing property and a great place to host a gathering. The house is extremely clean, has a fully equipped kitchen (plenty of cups, plates, utensils, etc), and is well maintained. The open floor plan with kitchen, dining room, and living room is perfect for everyone to be together. While hanging out in the kitchen we saw many deer roaming the fields. The bedrooms are spacious and beds/pillows are comfortable. Bathrooms are clean and spacious and have plenty of towles. I highly recommend this property.

Labor Day Weekend Family Gathering
13 of us ( children and grandchildren), spent the Labor Day Weekend at the Clay Banks Retreat. We all found the house to be very lovely and accommodating for all ages. There was more than enough room and everything in the house was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped.We would certainly return there.

Great Property
The home was perfect for 13 of us that stayed there over a long weekend. Plenty of room for the adults and for the younger kids to have some of their own space as well. Great location just outside of town so that you can get away from all the people in town and relax under the stars. Very clean. Just a great place to stay all-around.

We had a wonderful time staying here for a family reunion in Door County. The house was perfect in every way: spacious for a large group, clean, comfortable, and with every kitchen utensil imaginable available. It's a bit off the beaten track (i.e. 30-45 min to most key places in Door County) but that's what we loved about it. You haven't experienced true "peace and quiet" until you've stayed here!
