Our family of seven loved the cottage! It was the perfect home base for our Door County vacation. It was much larger than we expected and everyone had their own bed. The upper loft was an unexpected bonus. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes, everything was very clean and well decorated, and we had plenty of privacy. My wife and I loved walking to the coffee shop and the general store every morning. One heads up for other guests: we found a couple of ticks just about every day, so beware if you have little ones especially. Not a problem with the cottage itself, but a good thing to watch out for during your stay. We’ll be back and will be sharing this place with our friends!

It would have been good to say up front that the interior design business is in the same house as the Garden Cottage guests.

We had a wonderful time in Door County. The property was as advertised. A couple things, the bathroom sink water pressure was very low at best, it should probably be looked at. There is some kind of sump pump that runs every 15 seconds or so which we could hear , especially at night, that also should probably be looked at. Neither of these things would preclude us from staying at this house again.

We had the best week at this place! It was clean and exactly as described (honestly even nicer in person). It was just 1 block to all of the restaurants, coffee shops etc in Ellison Bay which is a lovely town much quieter than several of the other ones but still with plenty of great options as well as a park & beach. Only a 10 min drive to sister Bay and Gill Harbor, we found it very easy to get around and would absolutely stay here again.

This was our family's first visit to Door County, and this cottage was the perfect homebase for us as we explored, relaxed, and enjoyed great time together. For anyone unfamiliar with Door County (as we were), the Ellison Bay location is just a little north of some more familiar, busier towns, which was absolutely perfect for us. It was quick and easy to visit Sister Bay, Ephraim, and Fish Creek, but we loved starting and ending our days in a quieter location. We also made time to go just a little farther north and discovered possibly the highlight of our trip when we did: Bea's Ho-made Products. Yum! We were pleasantly surprised to find the cottage larger than expected. The room with twin beds is on the second floor, and the living room and dining room worked very comfortably for our family of six. The kitchen was stocked with everything we'd need to cook and bake. There were more than enough bath towels for our multi-day stay, although we were glad we brought extra beach towels. One note: the property has a sump pump that will occasionally create a whooshing/flushing sound. If the weather is dry, the pump likely won't run, but it was running frequently since we were there during a wet time. It wasn't a problem for us but light sleepers may want ear plugs. We didn't know what to expect in terms of the business next door, but it wasn't an issue at all. As of our visit, the retail space was very quiet with no traffic or noise, and separate entrances/spaces were very clear.

So happy to have found this little gem. We were able to do all that northern Door County had to offer and enjoy day trips south without worrying about the hustle and bustle of the larger little towns.
