Very sweet, a little buggy

This was a very cute property, it reminded me very much of my grandparents home that was nestled amongst the trees. The property managers were very responsive when we were looking for items in the cabin. There were ample items to keep us comfortable with the changing weather such as, 2 standing fans, extra blankets and extra towels. The stove sometimes has a hard time igniting but they do provide an electric lighter. If you or a member of your party have mobility difficulties just be aware that there is a steep and shallow staircase you will need to climb to get into the cabin. There is one AC in the back bedroom, we only needed it for a couple of nights though. You can use fans to help circulate the cold air from one room to another. My one true complaint was that there were many bugs in the bedroom at the back of the cabin. As I was going to bed I would see beetles crawling under the bed, and small insects crawling across the ceiling, the corners of the bedroom and bathroom needed to be dusted free of cobwebs with dying flies in them, and I would wake up with mosquito bites from time to time. You are in a wooded area however, some insects are to be expected. Now, if you use the bedroom at the front of the house, I was assured by my mother and sister that they had no issues.

Wonderful Experience

I didn't get a chance to write more in the guestbook since I saw it as we were leaving. what a great place to stay! We were able to keep windows open since we were on the second floor. The rain was peaceful, the fire pit was awesome. The best was being able to walk into Peninsula State Park from the property. Thank you for being great hosts. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Nice and clean and great location

My wife and spent 4 nights at The Carriage House, and had a great visit to Door County. Very clean (spotless windows). Only an A/C window unit in one of the rooms, but that didn’t matter. We liked having the windows open and got a nice cross breeze. House is shaded in the trees so it didn’t get too hot during the day and we weren’t there during the day anyway. Weather was great and was cool in the evenings. Great location between Fish Creek and Ephraim. Conviently close to the back entrance to Pennisula State Park, so we drove into Fish Creek for breakfast at Julie’s, unloaded our bikes and biked all the way through the park’s roads, stopped off at the house for lunch and then rode back to our car in Fish Creek. Easy little loop! The coffee maker wasn’t working properly, so we texted the hosts before we left the first morning and a new one was waiting for us at the door when we came back in the afternoon. 👏👍 This is a 2-bed, 1-bath unit on the second floor of the house. Bottom of house is used for garage and storage, so no one below you. It, along with other cottages, is located right behind the hosts’ house. We had no issues with noise.

Loved staying at Carriage House

The location was perfect for us! It was in an area set off the busy (but quiet) main roadway. I loved that it was so close to all the Villages in Door County. Easy in and out and we never heard any of the others staying in neighboring houses. We plan to visit next year and stay in Park Pace Cottages again.

Perfect location

This property is right next to the Peninsula state park golf course so it was very easy to go to the state park for early morning and sunset views. This unit is on the second floor with no one on the first floor so it gave a sense of privacy. Also the view of the trees from up there was pretty. There was plenty of room for me, my husband, and my mom. Comfortable bedding and couches. The owners were genuine and accommodating. I could not rate it as a five as we were disappointed that the unit was musty. Also, we were not able to log onto their Wi-Fi. Poor network connection there. To be clear, the owners did supply us with a dehumidifier to help with the musty smell.

Cute cottage in the woods!

My husband and I spent a week here while celebrating our anniversary and his birthday. Cottage was spacious with comfortable furniture and beds. Lots of drawer and closet space, including coat closets and built-in storage. Kitchen is well stocked with small appliances, gadgets and everything you might need to cook and prep food. Outdoor grill, fire pit, picnic table and Adirondack chairs are an added plus. We could ride bikes right off the property into Peninsula State Park. 5 minute drive to Fish Creek and Ephraim. Would definitely stay here again.
