We had a lovely week with extended family at this well-located, well-kept, well-equipped and lovely house. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly over text. Best Vrbo owner I have ever dealt with. Zero complaints about anything. Really comfortable and cozy house. They went out of their way to supply a lot of things that usually are not found at rentals homes like lots of couch throw blankets, tissue boxes, baskets to keep your toiletries in, a lily pad, and Tupperware.

Ephraim House worked great for our family of 7 adults and 9-year old twins. The House had everything we needed and more and provided more household supplies than other vacation rentals we have had. Erin was terrifically responsive. The location was close enough to town and beach for easy access on foot or bike but just far enough for peace and quiet and privacy. We found plenty to do in Door County and found Erin's recommendations very helpful: tennis, swimming, renting a pontoon boat, eating out, eating in and much more. Will definitely consider returning next year!

I can't say enough good things about both the property and the host. We were eight adults (all family) and the house was perfectly suited for our needs. It's beautiful and incredibly well stocked. It was also the nicest rental house that we've ever utilized.
To top it off, Erin was the perfect host. Her communications were timely and informative, and she was in touch with us before, during, and after the rental. Just perfect.
All in all, we couldn't offer a more positive review. Just excellent.

Hidden Gem! Great location - short walk to Ephraim - shops and restaurants. The house has everything you need and more! There were 12 of us - ages 70+ to 1 1/2. Everyone loved the house - Our host Erin could not have been more helpful. You will not be disappointed.

First of all, right from the start after booking this beautiful home, the owner Erin, was so incredibly responsive. The demeanor of the owner can make such a big difference in the overall experience of renting a home. She was WONDERFUL!! So helpful, friendly, and truly cares about your experience and that you and your group will have a great time!
The house is fantastic, couldn't ask for a better location. Will definitely stay here again.

If I could give this house 10 stars I would!! The hosts are extremely accommodating , the home is stocked with everything you could possibly need which made it feel like home! We could not be happier with our stay here! Thank you Erin and John! Also…it has some pretty awesome accent walls(;

This was a great home for our family who were in town for a baby shower. We enjoyed a family dinner prepared by a private chef and the kitchen/dining room were perfect, with everything we needed! We loved the location of the home - close to 42 but surrounded by trees, giving us privacy and quiet. It rained a bit, but we were able to enjoy the fire table on the deck one night. The home was beautiful, clean and nicely decorated. Erin was a lovely host, communicating throughout the process to make sure our stay was perfect. This was the BEST experience I’ve ever had with a home rental.

We had an amazing stay for Thanksgiving weekend. The Ephraim House was perfect for our family of 10. Plenty of space for meals, games and relaxing. The house is beautifully decorated, new and clean. They have really thought of every detail to make your stay perfect, and they have so many supplies and household essentials available for use. We will be back!

Our group enjoyed a Friendsgiving getaway at this property and had a fantastic time. Everything is exactly as described and Erin was incredibly responsive and communicative. Her instructions on how to access the property were detailed and clear. She even offered to ship a pair of pants that our friend’s son left behind.
The house is very comfortable and the kids had a blast in the hot tub and roasting marshmallows at the fire pit. Highly recommend!

Just WOW! We stayed here for a family wedding weekend and we could not have asked for a better place! The home is beautiful and the hosts are more than you could ask for. We were checked in on via message a few times making sure there was nothing we could need and we were able to have a late checkout which gave us just a few more hours to recover after a great wedding! Can’t wait to come back!
5.0
This is our 6th year finishing our summer in Door County with our kids, but first on the west side and first with our extended family.
We were impressed from the beginning. Erin was communicating with us before the trip, giving us recommendations for activities during, and making sure we had everything we needed.
I know the property is on the pricier side, but I will say the quality of the house, accommodations given, as well as the wonderful location, well justify it.
If you have children the bunk room was well worth it. And Moms and Dads were able to sneak out into the hot tub as well!
Memories formed for our children, fun times around the fire with our family, we will definitely be back.

I had the privilege to stay in this beautiful home in August 2023. I can say with the upmost authority that the pictures do not lie. This is a gorgeous new build and is well cared for. I specifically was seeking a property with a hot tub for some arthritic relief. This was perhaps the best hot tub I have ever experienced. It was so fantastic that I will be contacting the owners to inquire about the make and model for my own home. What a bonus to have this offered during my stay.
I definitely took notes on some fantastic features this home had to offer for my build someday. A great pantry, excellent master bathroom facilities with an outstanding walk-in closet/dressing area. A gorgeous stone fireplace with simple toggle button. I never knew if I could handle an open concept, kitchen, dining, and living area, but this home made a believer out of me. Stunning!
Location, location, location! I particularly loved feeling that I was in the middle of a remote woods, but knowing that I was only two blocks (probably less) down a hill, and I was on highway 42.
The absolute best thing about this property was the owners. When they say they will provide concierge services, they are not lying. Erin was not only a delight, but an absolute fountain of knowledge. I so appreciated her attentiveness to my questions and suggestions for things to do. Hands-down, the best owners I have ever worked with, and I have worked with some really great ones. I will definitely be back.
5 stars!

Brand new home (2021) and well planned and laid out. Room for our 3 families totaling 9 people with room to spare. Lots of additional things provided: kayak, hot tub, ping pong table, fire pit and more. Exactly as described on VRBO listing. No surprises. Host is easily available through messaging and responds quickly. We did need to do a bit of cleaning when we arrived but nothing we couldn't easily handle.

I booked this stay a year ago, looking to plan a trip that is an annual tradition for family. My adult children have recently married in the last 5 years to this year we were sharing our trip with extended family so having a larger location was important.
Ephraim House exceeded my expectations in every way possible. The location is walking distance to everything in Ephraim, yet when you walk out any door you are in such quiet nature you barely know there are neighbors nearby. We enjoyed beautiful mornings on the front patio, lively dinners with family on the deck, music and treats by the campfire, and luxurious soaks after all of Door County's outdoor offerings at night.
Erin was the perfect host from the point of reservation, all through our stay and beyond. The cleanliness and amenities she offers as a host cannot compare to any rental we've taken in the years we've been coming to DoCo.
If you are interested in making magical memories and having the time of your life this is the property to select every single visit. I know we will!

The Ephraim House was everything we hoped it would be for our family vacation and more! It was clean, modern, comfortable, and had so many amenities that we were able to enjoy! The location was perfect! It was just a short .5 mile walk to the Ephraim public beach, which is beautiful! Also an easy walk to downtown Ephraim to enjoy restaurants & shopping. We loved using the paddle boards & kayak down at the beach. Our family enjoyed nightly hot tub sessions to unwind after a day of activity, and roasting marshmallows & making s'mores around the fire pit. I was extremely impressed with Erin, the homeowner. She was quick to respond, extremely kind, helpful and accommodating. I was also so impressed with how well stocked the house was.....they thought of every detail and it made packing/traveling easy and stress free! I would highly recommend this home for your Door County Vacation! We hope to stay here again.

We loved staying at this beautiful home. Which is beautifully appointed, clean and extremely comfortable. The layout of the home allowed for kid fun downstairs. The hot tub was perfect for all to enjoy along with the fire pit and ample wood provided. We are thankful for the memories made at the Ephiram house.

This was our second stay as a family at the Ephraim House and it was as good as the first time. The house is spectacular and located a short walk or bike from the Ephraim waterfront. It is spacious, new, and well kept with lots of activities. The hosts are incredible -- very responsive and have great advice for taking advantage of time in Door County. Strong recommend -- it is an extraordinary place.

We had an amazing weekend in Ephraim! The house was perfect for our family of 7. Erin was a wonderful host and put a lot of thought into every detail to make our trip special.

Great place to stay. Great communication, very clean house, fantastic location close to town. They thought of everything, from extra toiletries, plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen, board games, bikes, out door games, pack and plays, high chairs. Would for sure stay agin and recommend to anyone.

We had 5 couples stay at the house for a great 3 day weekend. The same group has been coming to Door County in January to celebrate my wife's birthday for over 20 years. Everyone in our group loved the Ephraim House! Everything was so clean and furnished nicely. The kitchen was extra nice and everyone loved the large gas fireplace on the cold January nights. Good location and close to restaurants and shopping. We are hoping to return to Ephraim House in the future. 5 stars.

Wonderful stay in perfect location. Amazing owner manager. Our only issue was with the bed in the master. The mattress was very firm and quite uncomfortable. To be fair I have hip issues so prefer softer mattress. That said, we rented again for the summer. So that should say it all. I’ll just bring a mattress pad!

Seriously, look no further. Erin is an incredible host. The place is absolutely stunning and a great location to enjoy all the door county has to offer!! I even left a shoe that she found and is willing to ship it home to me. She is exceptional at communication and goes above and beyond.
Everything about this stay was effortless and absolutely perfect. We had 14 women for a girl's weekend and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Plus, HOT TUB!

The Ephraim House will live in our hearts as the most perfect place to celebrate our intimate micro wedding week in Door County! We were a group of 15 including our teen and adult children (including adult significant others) and our parents. The house is new, sparkling clean, and has many extra features including a fully stocked gourmet kitchen for entertaining, fire pit, hot tub, fire table on the spacious deck, and luxurious living quarters. The great room and family room were very flexible and accommodated our group at all times of the day. The interior decor and beautiful light within the house is extraordinary. Nestled just a few blocks from the Ephraim waterfront, our group could bike or walk to the shops and beach with ease yet the house was very quiet at night. The stars were bright sitting out by the bon fire in the beautiful Adirondack chairs while we sipped hot apple cider and shared many stories.
Erin and John were very easy to reach out to and Erin assisted with any questions we had while coordinating our special day. She checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and provided all the directions necessary to ensure our stay went seamlessly.
Our family will remember The Ephraim House fondly and we hope to plan return with our family. Many thanks to Erin and John!

Erin and John are the kindest, most responsive, owners dedicated to your stay while at The Ephraim house. They were so thoughtful and kind and so informative. Quick to answer questions. The house was definitely built with love and every single detail was thought out! Although October was too chilly to enjoy the bikes and kayaks, they were available as well as yard games....truly so giving with what they have in home. Chargers in each room, a charging station for all kinds of devises, tons of dinnerware. We ate all meals and fed 14 people for 3 days and had everything needed. Space was so very well planned out so everyone has area to relax yet enjoy privacy. It really was a perfect stay and so close to wonderful attractions and very easy to access. I will be back to stay. There should be absolutely no hesitation in booking this property!!

What can we say: Erin was essentially the perfect 24/7 concierge giving us wonderful insight to the property and all that Door County has to offer. Her home is beautiful, well appointed and was the perfect setting for our family to come together and wind down.
We will definitely be staying here again!!!

We stayed at the Ephraim House for four nights and it was just terrific!! The house itself is gorgeous, the property is private yet very convenient to the main parts of Ephraim. Within walking distance of Wilson’s, the beach, etc!
Everything is high end and Erin the host is so great! I can’t say enough about the vrbo or her!
The attention to detail and preparation of thinking through any and all needs that these property owners took is remarkable! The kitchen is well equipped with a fabulous stove! We used the grill to make steaks and that was wonderful. Also the fire table and additional fire pit both make the experience wonderful.
We had 7 people (grandparents down to a 3 year old) and there was more than enough space for all. This is the perfect home for entertaining! My in-laws and mom all loved the property. In addition to the deck, there is a front porch with chairs to enjoy your morning coffee!
There were outdoor toys available (large scale checkers, bean bag boards, etc) and a wagon available to use which my kids loved!
We had a wonderful time and you cannot go wrong renting this vrbo. It was absolutely wonderful and we hope to return soon!

We had a delightful time staying at the Ephraim House. It is as beautiful as it looks in the pictures online. Everything is brand new and the hosts have considered everything to make our visit feel like home. They made the check in process absolutely seamless and answered every question we had immediately. It is hard to imagine better hosts!
The house itself is nestled in the woods and very quiet but is also just a very short walk from Ephraim beach and from the town. It has everything needed to enjoy the lake and Door County -- a kayak, paddleboards, bikes, and a beautiful fire pit right outside. We loved our time and hope to stay again next summer!

The Ephraim House is beautiful as well as impeccably clean. It is evident that John and Erin gave much thought into planning a perfect vacation home for others to enjoy. Erin is a 5 star host, was always available to answer concerns and questions. Her responses were usually immediate. During our stay she continued to inform us of special events happening in the village of Ephraim that we may not have been aware of. Erin made every effort to help us have a very memorable Door County experience.
The open-concept living area is spacious, inviting and comfortable. Our group of 13 had ample room to gather for meals, to visit and even complete a few puzzles on the extra large dining table!
The kitchen is outfitted with everything you could possibly need or want. Dinnerware and glassware is abundant. We even found insulated tumblers that came in handy while enjoying the fire pit in the evening. (We were grateful for the generous supply of fire wood too!) The large beverage frig under the island is a nice bonus! The walk-in pantry has many small kitchen appliances and there was space for all our shelf-stable food purchases.
The lower level is a great kid-friendly space. The bunk room was definitely a hit with the little ones and the additional gathering space was ideal for playing or watching movies. For those traveling with babies or toddlers, Erin and John have you covered. There are 2 high chairs and 3 port-a-cribs. We used a high chair and a crib thus grateful that we didn’t need to bring them from home.
Our vacation was perfect and yours can be too! I highly recommend The Ephraim House!
5.0
The Ephraim House was absolutely wonderful. My brothers and sisters and their spouses, a party of five couples stayed in roomy comfort and luxury. The home is quite new and immaculately clean. Everything in the photos and promised amenities were spot on. We had an outstanding stay and would not hesitate to return. Erin was a marvelous host with an eagerness and willingness to help. Every question or concern I sent Erin was answered within 3-5 minutes. Secluded and private in a beautiful wooded setting I give the Ephraim House my absolute highest recommendation. Go and enjoy !!!!
