About this house rental

Fish Creek Beginnings is a charming, peaceful, and updated mid-century modern home nestled in the woods. Although a more private location, it is located just minutes from the hustle and bustle of downtown Fish Creek. Activities, restaurants, a swimming beach, YMCA, and a marina are all nearby. You can even ride your bike the 1.5 miles to the heart of Fish Creek. The home is also centrally located to access the other major towns in Door County. Your private oasis is truly close to everything Door County has to offer!

Enjoy the nostalgic charm of this updated mid-century 2 bedroom home. The cottage is stocked with retro board games, croquet, bags, and bocce ball. Make smores around the outdoor Door County firepit, gaze at the stars, watch the birds, cozy in with the indoor gas fireplace, dance to the record player, and enjoy a meal in the fully stocked kitchen.

The interior open concept is very comfortable with a fully equipped kitchen; cook-top, oven, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and ample seating. A spacious living room with comfortable furniture, TV, satellite cable, DVD player, VCR along with tons of VHS classics, WIFI, stone gas fireplace, big windows, and an extra large view of the woods & waterfall.

There are two bedrooms; one with a king bed and large view of the backyard, and the other a peaceful queen sized bedroom. The master has blackout curtains and both bedrooms have sleep machines making for a good nights sleep. There is central air, an updated bathroom with a clean shower, and a washer & dryer.
Fish Creek Beginnings' backyard is a nature paradise with a gorgeous stone waterfall (5' drop.) The sound of the waterfall makes the backyard feel extra tranquil and peaceful. It's complete with a large outdoor patio, charcoal grill, built-in fire pit, outdoor string lights, large dining table, and fun chairs. You can also walk the private bridge, trails and woods.
Enjoy Mother Nature here. It's woods, water features, wildlife, a busy bird feeder, and stargazing. The home is nestled in 14 acres of forest containing cedar and maple, wetlands, and perennial landscape. Fish Creek’s seasonal creek begins on the property which is where the name comes from.



Fish Creek Beginnings is perfect for a Romantic Getaway or a Family Vacation. However, as much we love little kiddos, if they are extra active and you don't feel like watching their every move, this is not an ideal place to rent. There is too much within their reach indoors and out.

Sorry, No Pets or Exceptions.

If you want to relax in a retro happy home in a private and peaceful location, we welcome you to FISH CREEK BEGINNINGS! Where Fish Creek starts & memories never end.

This is our second time staying here and we just love it. It is truly a peaceful spot to be at during a very busy weekend (Labor Day) in Door County. We had fires, hung by the waterfall, grilled, bought our own records to play from Bay Vinyl, and watched some VHS tapes. We also ventured out each day for various things, but it was so nice coming back to a peaceful place. I love coming here.

The yellow cottage always charms us with its gorgeous backyard and cozy ambiance. We’ve returned to it seven times now and each time it’s hard to leave. The views are so pretty of the woods. We often saw deer and lots of types of birds. The waterfall is relaxing and the patio is a great place to hang out. It’s well located and very well appointed with everything you need for an easy, fun getaway. The host is delightful and extremely responsive. We can’t wait to return!

My boyfriend and I came for MDW and had a great time. The place is very clean which is always important to me! The bed was very comfy. All the vhs movies were fun on the rainy nights. We loved the outdoor fireplace and seeing the stars. Just check yourself for ticks as we had a couple on us after walking the trail!
