SPECIAL AVAILABILITY - for Green Bay NFL Draft - ask specifically in an inquiry.

Cana Pointe Lake House is a large modern rental vacation home sited on a majestic stretch of Door County, Wisconsin waterfront. It was designed to accommodate multiple generation friend and family gatherings as well as be an intimate wedding venue.

Kids are well accommodated and pets are welcome.

Located on the wooded shore of Lake Michigan down a quiet Wisconsin Rustic Road, you are but:
- 3 miles from Baileys Harbor
- 10 miles from Sister Bay
- 11 from Ephraim
- 14 miles from Fish Creek
- 15 miles from Egg Harbor
all in Wisconsin’s fabled Door County.

- Architecturally designed to provide spectacular views of Lake Michigan and its colorful, ever-changing wave patterns from all living spaces.

- Situated on the “quiet side” of the Door peninsula with all tourist towns easily reachable on nearly traffic-free back county roads.

- Past guests marvel at how the main floor great room design provides simultaneous lake views to:
- 20+ sit-down diners
- Food preparers, whether in the kitchen or at the outdoor deck grill
- Groups watching television and/or conversing in several separate areas

- Sleeping accommodations for 12 adults where all have lake views and there is bed configuration flexibility.

- Play area for kids, firepit by the shore and pets are welcome.

- The home has an elevator to facilitate travel between floors, a large yard with a fire pit by the shore, a unique 12’ by 12’ rooftop crow’s nest providing 360* panoramic views - coveted by teenagers for its all day sun and amateur astronomers for spectacular night skies.

- Couples have held beautiful intimate weddings in the spacious lakeside yard and had their wedding party stay right here in the house (contact Bill for details at (562) 212-4563).

Cana Pointe Lake House has been outfitted to provide a memorable experience to your whole group. Floor to ceiling windows and vaulted ceilings bring the beautiful outdoors into every room. The home has Starlink internet and cable TV service, but we hope you can unplug at least some of the time. An elevator facilitates mobility between floors.

Guests have found the following aspects of the home to be particularly appealing:

- Outdoor deck with grilling facilities off the great room just steps from the dining table also includes a fire table with chairs
- A separate home office as well as another secluded study desk with strong internet
- An electric car-charging outlet
- Dog friendly
- An exercise room with treadmill, weights, and yoga mats
- Satellite TVs in each bedroom and in three group areas
- Three gas fireplaces provide cozy warmth or just ambiance
- Indoor and outdoor picnic area and lakeside fire ring for camp fires

Cana Pointe Lake House rests on a peninsula overlooking Lake Michigan surrounded by the protected Boreal Forest of Baileys Harbor and a stone’s throw from the iconic Cana Island lighthouse. The immediate area can be enjoyed during all four seasons. Our guests enjoy the changing moods of Lake Michigan depending on light and wind conditions. Sunrises and moon risings are spectacular from every room. Northern lights and the Milky Way are often visible from the crow's nest when conditions are right.

Guests actively explore:
- The historic waterfront villages of Door County offer dining, shopping, art and culture. Dining options are many. Shopping is varied. According to Door County’s tourist bureau, over 100 art galleries and studios are scattered throughout the area. Several award-winning theatre groups perform during the season.

- Our location provides easy access to all the Door County attractions without the endless summer traffic of the bayside - a difference only appreciated with experience.

Outdoor activities are a hallmark of Door County and include:
- Boating – rental options on all types of boats as well as charter cruises are located throughout the county.
- Golfing – there are 8 courses on the peninsula and 4 miniature golfing for the small children
- Fishing – a top Midwest site for bass, walleye, perch, brown trout, and salmon – on your own or with one of the dozen charters. Ice fishing is available for the seasonally hardy. Note: A 32 pound brown trout was caught locally in April 2021.
- 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

Wonderful experience & host
This was the perfect location for our family getaway! The house was beautiful and there was plenty of room for everyone. It was nice to have the fire pit, play set and games available for us. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the supplies we needed for making meals and the beds were very comfortable. We loved the views and privacy as well as the proximity to many of the spots we visited. The owner was wonderful to work with. Communication was great and Bill provided many recommendations specific to our family's interests. We highly recommend the Cana Point Lake House and look forward to coming back. Thank you!

BEST VRBO!!!!
We love staying here and are just on our way home from a long February weekend with family, celebrating Valentines Day with Grandma and my 4 kids. It’s quiet and cold in the winter, but the house is warm and cozy. The view is spectacular, and the photos don’t capture it like when you are there. We enjoy walking to the Cana lighthouse, and visiting local restaurants. I can’t say enough about this VRBO, it is our second time but certainly not our last! It’s simply perfect…

Great Home For Our Annual Gathering
Each year for the past 30 plus years 10 friends gather for a long weekend to catch up. We always look for a house that can handle a large group. That means having enough beds, but also enough pots, pans, plates and the like to make it easy to have meals, and nice common spaces to spread out. This beautiful house on the lake punched all the buttons. The house had everything we needed and was beautifully situated. Once we settled in, we did not feel the need to leave the house, other than for walks, the entire weekend. Communication with the owner was easy and he texted us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Check in and check out were a snap. We would stay here again.

Awesome Holiday Stay!
My family stayed during the holiday (Dec 29 - Jan 2) and we truly enjoyed ourselves. There were 9 of us (7 adults, 2 kids, 1 dog). Very spacious home with floor-to-ceiling windows so we had a panoramic view of the water. The rooms were clean and we slept comfortably. The host was very accessible before, during, and after our stay. We brought plenty of games and enjoyed game night practically every evening. We also enjoyed ping pong and miniature basketball in the game room in the house. Unfortunately, it didn't snow a lot during our stay, however, that did not stop us from venturing outdoors. We enjoyed downtown, shopping at stores, and going to a local winery (Door 44 Winery) which was amazing! The locals were extremely nice and welcoming. We also went grocery shopping at the local Piggly Wiggly to buy groceries for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. All in all, great experience!

If It Shows Up In Your Search-Book It
This place hit all the marks for our group of 10 that used as a base camp for Door County adventures. It really has something for all the peeps in your group: water, space for quiet, space for the loud, cooks (inside and out), pingpong...list goes on! We are already in the process of booking it again next year.

Beautiful home and Wonderful Host
Our family has been going to Door County for 40+ years. We had a group of 16, ages 9 mos-80 years old, staying at Bill and Monica's lovely Cana Pointe Lakehouse. The house has anything you would need for the trip. The kitchen is fully stocked (including great knives), the beds were extremely comfortable, incredible views, the house was clean and Bill was always at our beck and call if anything was needed (which it wasn't). We had the time of our lives and are very grateful for such a beautiful house and lovely hosts!

Perfect family getaway
Our family had the best time in this beautiful home! There was plenty of space for our multi-generational group to sleep, eat, play, and gather. The views of the lake and lighthouse are incredible. The location is perfect for exploring nature along the rocky shoreline. The kids loved the swing set and lawn games, and the adults loved relaxing on the porch and around the fire pit. Bill, the owner, provided many helpful recommendations and was very responsive. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Lighthouse Get-Away
I grew up in DC and had picnics at Cana Island lighthouse. To see it every day from our windows was very special to me. This house is amazing, so much room for our family, age one to 74. The kitchen has everything and more of what we needed. We even hired a professional chef to cook for us one night. Bill went over and beyond for us, putting a child’s gate at the stairs, tokens for the Ridges and so much more. We’ve been renting some great houses over the past 15+ years but this one was the absolute best. We will be back!

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.

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.

Family Vacation
The house was perfect for our family--3 couples, 3 children 5 and under. The families stayed in the four downstairs bedrooms (there is a 5th that was used for naps) and used the screen porch as a gathering place. The second floor provides several places for conversation and playing and the many board games kept the kids busy when the weren't outside. It was just a great place and I would recommend it to anyone. Once the outside landscaping gets finished I would definitely give it a 5 on everything. With the little kids, though, some of the yard was dangerous for them (the flagstones piled at one end of the wall) and we had to be very careful. This is clearly being worked on and will probably not be an issue for much longer.

About the host

Hosted by Bill DeVitt

Host profile image
We have hosted over 80 groups since my wife Monica and I bought this property in 2021. I'm a native of Wisconsin, but lived for forty years in California. We recently moved to Door County full-time after using it as a secondary home for 20 years.

I am interested in nature, history, sports, travel, and business and am a docent at the Door County Maritime Museum.

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. We love the quiet solitude yet active lifestyle of Door County so much we have moved here permanently.

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.
