About this house rental

Welcome to Chicory Lake House - a premier family escape in the heart of Door County!

Our fully remodeled Kangaroo lakefront vacation home is located on a private road, just adjacent to the historic Kangaroo Lake causeway. Nestled among the reeds and mature trees on Kangaroo Lake's shoreline, and surrounded by calming waters and gorgeous lake views, Chicory Lake House is the perfect Door County retreat. Wake up to direct views of the lake and spend evenings cozying up to a roaring lakeside bonfire. Watch the Mergansers swim directly off the lakeside deck and patio, fish from the pier, or explore the lake on the provided kayaks and paddle boards. Walk across the road to enjoy a local favorite - Coyote Roadhouse, or take the short drive to all the towns that make Door County a world-class vacation destination. With all three bedrooms on one level, a gas fireplace, a large yard for outdoor games, and a game room complete with bumper pool and shuffleboard, Chicory Lake House is the perfect place to make memories for all ages and seasons.

A word about our cleaning protocols….We have a larger family that stays in multiple vacation rentals a year. We know, firsthand, how the cleanliness of a rental can make or break your vacation. Unlike most vacation rentals, we wash/change-out all duvet covers, extra blankets, living room throw blankets, and living room throw pillow covers between every guest, in addition to all the typical bed sheets and pillowcases. Our cleaning process is extremely extensive because we know that your relaxation and enjoyment depends on it.


★★★Please read our entire listing including our house rules. Our standard check-in time is 4PM and our standard check-out time is 10am. We require a signed rental agreement, waiver of liability, and a $300 credit card security deposit hold for all bookings. The name used to book the reservation must match that on the credit card and the signed rental agreement. The rental agreement and security deposit hold must be completed within 48 hours of booking (or prior to check-in for last-minute bookings) to complete your reservation and prevent cancelation. Our home is in a quiet community with neighbors and is geared towards quiet family vacations. We cannot accommodate bachelor or bachelorette parties, reunions or other rowdy gatherings. Our home is located directly adjacent to the historic Kangaroo Lake Causeway and across from a local favorite restaurant, Coyote Roadhouse. Like many locations on our narrow peninsula, guests should expect some road noise. The sounds of outdoor dining may also be heard when staying at our home. Many of our guests enjoy our close proximity to both the causeway and this local restaurant for dining and recreating on the lake. Guests planning to bring a boat must inform us at the time of booking. No jet skis allowed. Furniture may change when compared to the photos as we consistently attempt to maintain the comfort, quality, and cleanliness of our home's furnishings.★★★

The perfect house for a family trip to Door County. Every detail was thought through for and enjoyable stay. The kids (4 & 1) had a blast as well.

The house is outside of Bailey's Harbor, on the shore of Kangaroo Lake. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddleboards, the game room, and the fire pit where we made s'mores in the evening. It's about 5 minutes into town, and 20 minutes or less to most of the communities north of Sturgeon Bay - very centrally located. The cherries were ripe when we visited, and we had a delicious cherry pie!

This house was extremely clean and well taken care of. The house was well equipped with everything you could think of, including all the starters that you need (toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap…). The hosts were very friendly and easy to communicate with. I’d recommend this property to anyone interested.

The Chicory Lake House far exceeded all of our expectations (which were set high as this was our first true family vacation)! I cannot say enough about this beautiful house on the lake and how wonderful Jennifer was in her communication. The house is perfectly located right on Kangaroo Lake with privacy yet in close driving distance to anywhere you want to visit. We were immediately relaxed when we drove up and entered the house. Every detail from the colors to the furnishings to the layout both inside and out has been lovingly thought through as well as every amenity you may possibly need. One of our many highlights was kayaking as a family every night. It was so convenient to put five kayaks in the water at the dock and then paddle out on the quiet lake (we basically had the lake to ourselves). We used the fire pit every night with the comfortable chairs and thoughtful smores kit, as well as spent time in the game garage playing so many different games. Inside the bedrooms were perfect for our family and the bathrooms were beautiful. Everything was SO clean and comfortable. On top of all this, Jennifer was a truly wonderful host. From her pre-stay communication and list of recommended restaurants and attractions (she put a lot of thought into the lists) to her immediate responses during our stay. You can absolutely tell that they love providing this special house on the lake for you to make your own memories. We can't wait to visit again!

We stayed in this beautiful home for 4 nights. We have rented our fair share of vacation homes and this was our favorite one yet. The details and information provided by Jennifer were so beyond helpful and thoughtful; including a pre-trip information document with check-in information and a huge binder once you arrive full of information on the house, where to find things, amenities, recommendations for all around door county, and the little personal insights from Jennifer were so awesome. We used the recommendations list everyday for food/coffee spots. The house is beautiful and you can tell so much love and care went into all of the details when it was renovated (and insanely clean!) The landscaping and outdoors was also wonderful and our one year old loved running around. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation spot on our first family vacation with our little guy. Thank you to Jennifer for everything and we hope to be back soon!

This year, our family decided to get away for Thanksgiving at the last minute, and we chose one of our favorite spots in Wisconsin...Door County. Jennifer quickly replied to my request and was great at communicating. This was evident in her emails and her detailed, thoughtful, personal welcome/informational binder at the home. We loved our stay at Chicory! You can tell that the owners have put their heart and soul into the property. It was immaculate, tastefully and serenely decorated, and very well stocked. The location was perfect for us, and it was an easy and beautiful drive to other parts of DC. The game room is a fun bonus that our entire family enjoyed. Watching the sunrise over the lake while enjoying coffee and being warmed by the fireplace was delightful. We made a lot of good memories at the Chicory Lake House; it was the perfect respite for our family during this Thanksgiving season. Thank you for sharing your lovely home! We hope to be back again. :)
