- Golfing – there are 8 courses on the peninsula and 4 miniature golfing for the small children

- Hiking – there are 5 state parks, 19 county parks, and numerous village hiking trails. The Boreal Forest hike begins just steps away. Note: The autumn leaf colors in Door County vie with New England in annual surveys.
- Biking – through the state parks and along the rustic roads.
More extreme sports include wind surfing, scuba diving the over 100 shipwrecks along the coast, and zip lining.
- Guided nature walks at the nearby Ridges Sanctuary.
- Taking a ferry over to Washington Island to experience where the settling of Wisconsin started.
- The solitude of winter with cozy fires and the ability to enjoy winter sports like tubing, snow shoeing, ice skating, dog sledding, pond hockey, and cross-country skiing

This amazing home was a perfect place to host our annual Women's retreat. Everything was clean and decorated beautifully. There were so many great places to gather and we all fit around the table for meals. Everyone said that their rooms were cozy and the beds super comfy. The views from the home were stunning and we walked to the Cana Island lighthouse, which was beautiful. The host was responsive and made sure check-in went well and that we were comfortable. There were many board games available for us and every supply needed for cooking big meals was there. By far the best place we have stayed with our large group.

Excellent property and stay
We loved this house! Plenty of room to spread out. The location is top notch - amazing views and lots of places nearby to explore. My daughter spent hours playing on the rocks on the shoreline. This is probably the most well stocked vacation rental ever. The elevator also came in handy to bring in luggage and groceries. Owner is very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Bill DeVitt

Host profile image
We have hosted over 40 groups since my wife Monica and I bought this property in 2021. I'm a native of Wisconsin, but live part-time in California. I am interested in nature, history, sports, travel, and business.

Why they chose this property

This is family-owned and designed by a local architect. We recently purchased it to be an occasional home near our Milwaukee and Minneapolis grandchildren and to share its ambience with guests like you throughout the seasons. Monica and I have several decades of seasonal Door County living experience and have a personal commitment to improve your getaway here in Door County.

What makes this property unique

This home was re-designed by an architect to take advantage of the unique geography of the property. This is a luxury accommodation right on the lake, away from the hustle and bustle of Door County towns, yet close enough to enjoy all they have to offer.
