The Refuge Log Home is nestled in a beautiful, wooded 5 acres across the street from Lake Michigan and is 4 miles east of Sister Bay in Northern Door County, WI. Listen to the waves from the home or take a few steps down the road to our private property with 100ft of shoreline. Enjoy the water from an Adirondack chair, a canoe or kayak, or wade right in! The wooded setting is quiet and sheltered and the lake may be viewed from the separate waterfront property.

Have fun exploring the woods. Deer are frequently seen. if you're lucky, you might spot a turkey family, an owl, or the newly discovered porcupine that occasionally makes an appearance. Spend your evenings around the fire enjoying the incredible stars. The home is located on a peaceful dead-end street with light car and foot traffic. It is less than ten minutes to downtown Sister Bay, a wonderful town with fun shops and great restaurants to explore and enjoy. Sand Bay Beach is just five minutes away and the villages of Baileys Harbor, Ephriam and Fish Creek are close too.

These two properties, woods and water, are the perfect getaway for family and friends!

The open floor plan is spacious and comfortable. The whole family can gather around the stone fireplace. There are many cozy places to retreat to for some quiet relaxation. Enjoy the outdoors from the front porch or the screen porch in back. Or grab a book from the bookcase and head up to a window seat in an upstairs dormer for some quiet reading.

The home has four private bedrooms, one on the main floor with a King size bed and three more upstairs. The large bonus room with three sky lights over the garage is perfect for movie nights or reading. The built-in bunks in the bunk room are always a thrill for kids! Please note that the 2nd floor bunk room does not have doors to close it off from common areas.

The Refuge is a true retreat any time of year. Whether it's enjoying the long days of summer on the screen porch, the crisp Fall nights around the campfire, hunkering down on a cozy wintry night by the fire, or spotting the first sounds and sights of Spring, we sure you will enjoy your stay.

Loved our stay. It's such a cozy home in a very quiet location, yet a short, beautiful drive to downtown Sister Bay. As a serious cook, I thought the kitchen was very well equipped, I always travel with my knife though. Charming touches throughout, and really loved the window over the kitchen sink that let in so many sounds of nature, and the great sunroom. Tons of space for the kids upstairs. The owners, Gary & Kitty, communicated wonderfully. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.

One of our best stays in Door County ever--beautiful home with every thoughtful amenity provided. Even though Memorial Day weekend was a little cold, we spent so much time on that wonderful screened porch. Outstanding!

This property was a bit more north than we usually stay in Door County, so it took a bit longer to get to, but it was worth it. So much natural beauty and just a short drive into Sister Bay, Ellison Bay, and Rowleys Bay. The street has several other houses on it but the home itself is further back on the property so we never heard any noise from the neighbors and felt very secluded and private the whole time. Although the house is not on the water, you could hear Lake Michigan in the distance, which was lovely. The rental also includes beach/waterfront access just a short walk away. Our young kids loved exploring the backyard and the path to the lake! Despite not having any snow during our trip, the cabin itself had plenty of warm, cozy, winter vibes. We loved playing all of our favorite childhood games and checking out the collection of books in the main living space. Plenty of options for sleeping, good kitchen space, simple decor, excellent puzzle table. Everything we needed! We would definitely stay again.

The house was lovely; super clean and comfortable - a room for each of 5 guests. The woods and private beach were a wonderful bonus. It would also be a great house if you had young kids - bunk beds and games and books.

Living in the city, it takes a little time to get used to the quiet. It is so good to be able to unwind and relax. The location is perfect to access Door County venues and activities. The cabin amenities make it easy to enjoy your stay and not have to worry about supples. Very enjoyable stay!

This is a lovely home/cabin in the woods with a water front property just a short walk down the road. The kitchen was amazingly appointed with everything you need. We enjoyed a morning stroll on the paths around the property, an afternoon nap in the Adirondack chairs by the water and a fire in the pit by the cabin in the evening. It’s quiet, relaxing and very peaceful. We loved our stay.

This lovely home fit our family perfectly. We loved the layout, the land and the private beach access. We were in town for a wedding, so didn't get to spend as much time in the space we wanted to for bonfires, grilling, and game nights. We hope to be back soon to do so!! Overall the building was beautiful and clean, small dip in rating as it wasn't when we landed, but Gary took care of it instantaneously. Highly recommend!!!
