Located on a mostly wooded, 2 acre setting on a quiet road, you’ll be amazed that such tranquility and peace can be located so near to all of Door County’s amenities. We're within walking distance to Sip Coffee and Red Putter Mini Golf, a short drive to the Piggly Wiggly in Sister Bay, and a short drive the other direction to Penninsula State Park and Golf Course.

This property was just what we were looking for our getaway weekend! A secluded spot that was close to all the amenities that Door County offers. Communication was smooth, the property kept up and overall just an amazing home for a couple of days.

We've stayed in many different places in Door County and must say this was one of the best. It was as described--clean, comfortable, well-appointed, and well-located. It's located in a very peaceful setting about 1/2 mile off Hwy 42 on Orchard Road in Ephraim. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch ... and, well, just everything. Our Scottie enjoyed it, too.

Cottage was great! Well stocked, lots of room, very quiet and great location. Range and refrigerator were nice with plenty of room for lots of food. Spacious living room, tv had everything and wood burning fireplace was very cozy. Exactly what we were looking for. Very peaceful but also so close to Ephraim and Sister Bay and a short drive to Egg Harbor. Great host as well!! Very helpful and informative about the property.

I loved my week at the Mingary Cottage! The home was full of light, had soft, comfortable furniture, and great views. My dog loved running around in the front yard. Janell and Kevin were quick to respond to questions and personable. I will definitely stay here the next time I come to Door County!

We loved our weeklong stay at the Mingary. The house is beautiful, the kitchen well stocked with nice appliances and dishes, pans etc. The location of the house is so convenient to shopping, hiking, orchards etc. yet it feels like you're in the middle of the woods. Lots of good birding right from the living room too!

Wonderful place to stay! We loved the quiet location of the of the property. The house was very clean and more than enough room for five adults and one dog. The owners were very communicative and helpful. Towels would have been helpful, but we would definitely stay there again.

The property was cuter in person than in the pictures! My family with 3 kids and 2 dogs fit with room to spare. We ate meals on the large wrap around porch in the evening with lavender landscaping as our backdrop. The location to the beach, restaurants, state park and shopping couldn’t have been better! My only suggestion for the owners is to invest in bath towels. It’s hard to pack those as well as everything else! Otherwise, exceptional property, good communication with the owners, 5 star stay.

This spot was perfect in so many ways. It was centrally located to all the things we love to see and do in Door County. It was quiet and peaceful, with no major traffic or crowd disturbances, just the deer passing by on occasion. It had all the amenities we needed for family breakfasts and dinners together, and provided separate spaces for each contingent of our family (grandparents, parents and children) to have a relaxing and private retreat from each other when necessary. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Mingary Cottage. The covered porch was really nice for sitting outside during the spring rain events and the layout was spacious enough for a group of 4 adults and two kiddos. The location was well positioned for trips to either Ephraim, Sisters Bay, or Fish Creek.

The house was lovely and very comfortable for 5 adults and a baby. We all enjoyed sitting on the veranda and grilling. I never felt so at home in Door Co. It also had a nice understated charm. It was quiet and yet close to towns (by car.)

This is the second year we have stayed here with our adult children and their partners. Nice location because it is quiet and wooded, but within minutes of Ephraim or Sister Bay. The house was clean and spacious for 6 people, and we love the front porch! This year we saw a doe and her fawn walking through the woods.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at the Mingary for several days during the first week of June and found this wonderful place to be absolutely fabulous and relaxing. Located on a dead end road, this home is an easy, scenic drive to both Sister Bay and Ephraim. The home is beautifully decorated, SPOTLESSLY clean and very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed for both home cooking and grilling-(including a new gas grill-no discarded "hand me downs" here). There is a small patio on the back of the house and a spacious covered front porch with a swing and comfy adirondeck chairs to watch the spectacular Lake Michigan sunsets in the bay. The master bedroom is well appointed and incudes a big bathroom with a walk-in shower. The thick, fluffy towels and bedding were included and the comfy bed provided us several nights of blissful, quiet sleep. This spacious home includes 2 more bedrooms- one with two twin beds and the other a queen bed, and another bathroom which incudes a tub/shower combo. The living room is very big, open and airy with two french doors that open to the covered front porch. There is a dining area off of the living room and a large breakfast nook area off of the kitchen. The home is an easy distance to both Sister Bay and Ephraim and right up the road from Fish Creek. Treat yourself to the many wonderful restaurants, shops and park in the area...you will not be disappointed. We loved Al Johnson's,and The White Gull Inn for breakfast and would highly recommend both. The Gibralter Grill is a great pick for lunch or dinner. There is so much to see and do in Door County- we were never bored and hope to come back in the fall with family members to enjoy the autumn colors. We also enjoyed seeing wild turkeys and roaming deer in the back, wooded area- just another added bonus. This place is fabulous- we hope to be back again and would definitely give the Mingary a "thumbs up"!
