Wonderful

Our cottage provided a breathtaking view of Green Bay and even included the sound of waves to lull us to sleep. Fall colors were at their peak and we loved the forest around the cottage.
Nice quiet location. Not too far of a drive from all door county towns. Especially liked that we had wifi service. Nice new tv. Galley kitchen and small bathroom but much nicer than a motel and the water front view and fire ring is the main attraction.
Loved this property! From the dog-friendliness, to the bike access, and of course, sunsets over the lake. I definitely recommend for a weekend retreat of rest and relaxation. While, as noted, there is no WiFi, there is a smart tv with streaming available for entertainment. The location is just a short drive to anything you would want to see in Door county.
We had a wonderful stay! However, I don’t think the grass has been mowed for 3 or 4 weeks and tree limbs hang way down touching car as you come in driveway.
These three cabins sit right on Green Bay at Little Harbor. The view is amazing. Our labrador retriever had plenty of time swimming. There isn't a beach, but it is possible to walk down some smaller rocks to the water (bring your water shoes!) The bay is shallow and most of the tijme calmer than the surrounding water. The dock is not sturdy enough for boats. We stayed at Starboard Cottage. It's a vintage cabin, with a small kitchen and microwave, coffeemaker, toaster, stove, refrigerator, counter with two stools, dishes, pots and pans, and utensils. The living room has been renovated and has a sofa and two chairs, tv and fireplace. The bedrooms have one full-sized bed and one dresser each, with a rack to hang clothes. The bathroom has a shower and plenty of nice towels and supplies. The cottage was clean and comfortable.
There are four adirondack chairs outside, a table and chairs with umbrella, a fire ring and a charcoal grill. We enjoyed sunsets, campfires, star-gazing, and watching the boats and pelicans. We even saw a mink running around on the rocks.
The cabin is right on Bay Shore Drive, but sheltered from the road by trees and in a quiet area. It's a bit of a drive (or a nice bike ride) into town, but we liked it that way. There is access to hiking up the bluff nearby. Route 42 is a short drive away.
We had an amazing vacation here, and we'll be back!
As a kid we came up to Door County every summer and stayed in a family owned cottage in Baileys Harbor. The location and view of this cottage were spectacular but it is very small. If it rains and you’re stuck inside like I was, it can be quite uncomfortable. The furniture is small and uncomfortable as well. Ideally when you come to DC you’re out and about most of the time. In that case this is a perfect place to rest and relax between “outings.”
This was such a cute little cottage. Perfect for our group of 4.
Beds were comfortable. Everything was visually pleasing. Well stocked. Owner took the time to fill planters with spring flowers. Area was quiet and peaceful . Wasn’t too far from the town where there were lots of cute little shops and bars. And the sunset views were stunning!!
Didn’t like how far out of the way we had to drive to check in but that was a minor detail.
Would definitely stay again.
The cottage small, but for 4 people is good. We used sofa in the living room. This place is clean. The area is very nice. We're recommend this cottage .

Uncomfortable beds
Beds were very uncomfortable. We couldn't get a good night's sleep. We had to go buy our own toilet paper. Found ants in the kitchen.
Place was as expected. Clean, quiet, easy access to attractions on the Peninsula. Nice evenings around the fire pit by the water. Should have checked ahead of time about docking a boat at the pier, too shallow and unprotected. Dead algae buid up on shore from the over fertile bay did not make for easy kayak launch and a little smelly until the fire in the pit got going. Stove not working correctly and DVD player broken but that is not why we came to door county. Overall, a great place to stay.
This cozy cottage bayside in northern Sturgeon Bay was very nice for 3 adults for our weekend ladies get away. The communication with the property owner was good. Great bay and sunset views from the property! The living room area was updated. The linens were clean and ready for use. There was a small cleanliness issue but nothing we couldn't work through.

Starboard cabin
The location and view were excellent but the cabin definitely needs some renovation
We enjoyed our stay here very much. The view can’t be beat and the convenience to all of Door County was great! The only complaints were that is was smaller than we anticipated. If you are a very big person, you might have trouble. This is more like a tiny house than a cottage. Full size beds and a tiny bathroom. Toilet and shower are tiny. If you have more than 2 people, definitely not big enough. Spent a lot of time exploring Door County and outside by the fire pit. Beautiful area. We would definitely rent it again, but the first time was a little bit of a surprise.
This is our second time staying in one of the Snug Harbor properties and we still love it. The cabins are basic but clean and comfortable. The highlight is being right on Green Bay in a little sheltered cove. You can watch the sunset every evening and enjoy a fire in your firepit. It is easy to drive to anything in Door County from there. We will definitely be back!
Cute but tiny little cottage on the Bay with a great view. Easy to kick back on the porch or down on the lawn next to the water and the fire pit.

We own and operate a small hotel in Sturgeon Bay, WI. I was a school teacher and my husband a welding inspector but decided to try our hand at running a hotel. We started 30 years ago and have never looked back. We love it. It does get a bit cold in the winter.... haha
