Very nice stay

We were so happy with our week at Brad and Amy’s cozy cottage. They are very kind and responsive and the cottage is just as advertised - comfortable, well appointed and just minutes from Peninsula State Park. They even left us supplies to make s’mores with the kids in the backyard fire pit. We would definitely come back!

Cutest retro Scandi cottage ever! Walked our bikes across the road and biked to Peninsula state park beach! Played their vintage board games and enjoyed s’mores around the fire in the backyard. Great location between Fish Creek and Sister Bay. Comfortable beds and pillows! We also loved the hospitality model - use ‘extras’ left by previous guests/hosts and then leave your own extras for future guests. Very clean and spacious - no ac but the shade and lake effect kept us cool (fans were great too). Owners were responsive- texted when we forgot a pillow & couldn’t find the garbage cans. Hope to return soon!

The Lille Cottage has it all! Perfect location right across the street from Peninsula Park and close to Fish Creek, Ephraim and Sister Bay. The decor is wonderful and it had a lot of the things you forget to pack as far as utensils, coffee and the s’more fixings were a pleasant surprise! We would definitely return.

The little cottage is a great place to stay! It's very clean, the retro theme is adorable, and all of the furniture is comfortable. It's very well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen and bathroom. The shower is wonderful! Brad is a very thoughtful and thorough host. He checked in and was available for help, but we had no questions or issues because everything was all set. Our dog loved her stay too.

Lille cottage is a wonderful place to vacation. Exceptionally clean and so well equipped. Brad and Amy have created such a fun atmosphere with the retro decor. Loved our visit and having our little pup be able to join us made it even more special.

Super charming place and decor in a great location. Brad was very communicative and accommodating from booking to check out. Couldn’t ask for a better stay.
5.0 / 5.0
The charm of this cottage captured our hearts from the moment we arrived. It was impeccably clean, comfortable, and cozy, with great attention to detail in every corner. The space was perfect for the two of us and our little dog—she loved it as much as we did. The surroundings were beautiful and serene, providing an ideal backdrop for a relaxing getaway.
The owners, Brad and Amy, were extremely thoughtful and communicative without being overbearing. I mentioned to them that we were coming up from Chicago to celebrate our birthdays (a week apart), looking for a low key peaceful getaway and that my fiancé loves to grill. When we arrived, I texted them to let them know, and I received a wonderful welcome text in return: "We bought a new grill for the Grill Master :)".
We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend Lille Cottage for anyone looking for a delightful and dog-friendly retreat in Door County!

The cottage was well equipped and convenient to parks and shops. I enjoyed my bike rides through Peninsula State Park (the entrance was just across Hwy 42).
5.0 / 5.0
Super cute. Perfect size for a girls getaway. Small ants in kitchen and bathroom area - cabin is in wooded area, it was rainy, and chilly so that is to be expected. No air conditioning, but it was cool so we didn't have an issue with the house being warm. Owners responded quickly when we reached out with a question. Clean.
5.0 / 5.0
The location for us was excellent. All of our activities were an easy drive away. Directly across from Penninsula State Park for very easy dog exercise—and long walks. The home is very close to an intersection. The road noise is fairly constant when you are outdoors. Road noise is no problem indoors. The rooms are all independently heated, which is a nice feature. The beds and furniture are very comfortable. Adorably decorated!

We absolutely loved our stay in the Lille Cottage! The attention to details in the decor was incredible, somehow perfectly blending a retro design with modern comfort. It was very clean with all necessary amenities and the location cannot be beat! It was cozy and comfortable, yet still felt spacious. Brad & Amy were excellent hosts. We would love to return and would recommend to anyone!
5.0 / 5.0
Very cute home. We picked this place because it was dog friendly. Mo had his own yard and we were all very comfortable here. Door Co is kinda closed down until May but we got a little hiking in and some R&R. We enjoyed cooking in the little kitchen and they had everything we needed.
5.0 / 5.0
This was the perfect cottage for our stay in Fish Creek. The owners are thoughtful and communicative (without being overbearing), and the vintage decor was a dream. Everything was clearly labeled and easy to find. They even made sure to have dog blankets available, ingredients for s'mores, a little treat for the adults, and so much more.

We recently spent the weekend at this cottage and had a great time. You are right across the street from the state park and really close to all the shops and restaurants. The cottage was clean and had a fun theme to it too. We would stay again, thanks!
5.0 / 5.0
We really enjoyed the cabin. It was in a great location and perfect for our family. Despite being on a large road it was quiet and was tucked back so it feels like you are in the woods. We would definitely stay here again.
5.0 / 5.0
Peace, tranquility, comfort...some just of the words to describe the Lille Cottage!
Mu husband and I have stayed at the Lille Cottage many times over the past few years and we continue to enjoy this lovely cottage, tucked away for privacy. Beds are sooo comfortable, and the new walk in shower is perfect!
We enjoy the fully equipped kitchen with the modern, yet retro appliances. WIFI and internet are readily available. The 50"s vibe is the cutest ever!
Brad (and Amy) are perfect hosts, and always offer their assistance if it is needed. I would give the Lille Cottage 10 stars if I could...looking forward to our next visit!

We have been returning to this cottage every fall for a fun girls weekend for at least 3 years. It is a gem which is decorated beautifully and comfortable. The hosts are extremely helpful. Whenever we have questions, they always answer promptly. We will be back again next year.

This is by far the cleanest and most equipped place we have stayed at in Door County. The hosts checked in by text to make sure everything was fine. We couldn't enjoy the firepit because of the rain but it sure looked inviting. The location was perfect as well.

We absolutely loved this place. So cute, roomy and clean. Great communication with Brad and zero problems. We loved the decor and had all that we could possibly need. This location is great. We could walk to Peninsula State Park do some hiking. So much to see and do in Door! Thank you!!!

Our 1st impression as we drove in the yard on Saturday night was “ this place is adorable!” The cottage has a cool retro feel, yet historic at the same time. Who wouldn’t love a stone fireplace or turquoise refrigerator? 😉 It didn’t take us long to start noticing Owls - we had our own game of “where’s Waldo” to find an owl in each room! ( I hope you noticed the one we added to the collection)
We had 4 adults and a dog in our group. We had plenty of room.
Tv and Wi-Fi and phone reception was great. Brad checked in with us a few times during the week just to see if we needed anything. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at Lille Cottage.
5.0 / 5.0
The cottage is cozy and had everything we needed. The weather wasn't the greatest for June but we'd venture out into the cool rain and when we got back to the cottage a hot mug of tea, a fire and a good book were all we needed. Can't wait to experience it again in the summer - or even on pretty snowy days.

We frequent the Lille Cottage as often as we are able, and Brad and Amy, owners, never disapppoint. The cottage is nostalgic with it's 50"s theme, but has all the updates a vacation home requires and more! From the kitchen that provides all the amenities one needs, to the newly remodeled bathroom that now boasts a walk in shower with a ceiling shower head as well as a wall mounted adjustable hand held shower "wand". And, oh so immacualately kept!!
The beds are comfy with terrific mattresses and cozy comforters that afford a great night's sleep after a busy day in the heart of Door County. We always look forward to our stay at the Lille Cottage and look forward to our next visit!

Brad and Amy’s “Lil Cottage” was just what our family was looking for. Cozy, clean, and family friendly. The location of the cottage was perfect. Peninsula State Park is literally “across the street” and Cave Point County Park is about 15-20 minutes away. We had an amazing time and will definitely stay here again!!

Outstanding attention to detail throughout the property. They remembered the things we did not haha!

Lille Cottage is adorably decorated. Everything was also very clean, and I'm very picky. We went in February, and the owners had a soft, fluffy faux fur comforter on the bed as well as a faux fur blanket and pillows on the couch, a nice touch for a cozy getaway. I would highly recommend Lille Cottage!

The little cottage was the perfect place to stay for a weekend getaway! Brad was such a great and attentive host and made the whole weekend run smoothly! Can’t wait to visit again!
