Great location and beautiful setting

We loved our stay! The location was central to all the things we love to do on vacation. We love touring the wineries and it was an easy drive to all of them. Our host communicated well and offered many suggestions when asked of places to eat and other attractions. The beach was a beautiful setting and the house was perfect to accommodate our group of 10 adults.

Beautiful Door County retreat

Our house outside Egg Harbor was a lovely quiet place to spend our time in beautiful Door County. Away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to explore the attractions of Door County.

Great Stay!

This house was very clean and SO well appointed with many activities and things to do. We never turned on the TV and instead visited by the lake, enjoyed kayaking with the kayaks provided, played ping pong or corn hole. Had everything we needed in the kitchen and we were grateful to have found it!

Peaceful getaway

We stayed with friends to explore all Door County has to offer. The place was great to come back to and watch the sunset, which were all gorgeous! The deck on the beach was fabulous for it. Very clean and well stocked with any kitchen utensil needed and spices for cooking. Would highly recommend.

Great getaway

Outstanding sunsets from the firepit and the deck just steps from the water. A beautiful home with everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. If you're in need to get away from everything and just reconnect with nature and yourself, this is a good place to do just that. Bald eagles in the sky during the day, the galaxies beyond what you've ever seen during the night, and the sound of the waves to lull you to sleep will make you never want to leave.

Great family gathering spot

Our family of 8 adults had a wonderful vacation at Shamrock Bay. With direct water access, we were able to enjoy kayaking, relaxing in the beach chairs, and watching the beautiful sunsets. The wooded area surrounding the property made it feel like our own private getaway. Many Door County destinations were just a short drive away. The kitchen was well-stocked with cooking and baking dishes and utensils. The two dining tables, the two living areas, the four large bedrooms and the closets provided us plenty of room. The owner, Peggy, was gracious , friendly and helpful. We highly recommend Shamrock Bay!

Relaxing August Getaway

Our reservation was for several days during the week at the end of August. The property is secluded from the road, but as you approach, you appreciate the landscaping and roomy driveway in front of the house. Inside is warm and inviting - definitely like someone lives there and enjoys it. There's quite a selection of games, as well as ping pong in the garage and some kayaks to use, all of which, we took advantage. It would have been nice to take a bike ride, but time went too fast. The kitchen was well stocked with any implement we needed for food preparation. Our favorite amenity was the wooden deck by the water. We sat and read as well as watched boats go by, the kids swim, storm clouds roll in, and the sun set. We only left for groceries, and to take part in a fish boil. Our time was up too soon.

Disappointing beach and water access

If it weren’t for the fact that we paid over $1,000 per night for this rental then we probably would have considered a 4 star review, but at that price point we definitely expected more. The beach is all large stones that are hard to walk on and there is a layer of algae along the entire waterfront that is at least a foot deep. There are large black spiders everywhere on the beach and the algae continues into the water. Definitely bring water shoes for both kids and adults if you are considering going in. All of the other neighboring properties have docks and this one really should have one as well. There were also a lot of more minor issues that were nonetheless disappointing and did not meet expectations (dirty dishes in dishwasher upon arrival, no wash clothes or paper towels, no broom, bad AC flow to the upstairs, broken tile at the main entrance, lack of drapes on the upstairs balcony door, etc.). All that being said, the water views are fantastic, we really enjoyed the fire pit, it is a spacious location and good for large groups, and it is close by to a lot of great spots (Egg Harbor beach is only 10 min away and is all sand and completely algae free plus it has a small playground for kids).

Plenty of room but water was disappointing

Overall the house was okay for our use. There was ample amount of beds and enough bathrooms for 10 ladies. Be aware of the holding tank situation - we were not aware of it and we kind of worried about that the entire weekend. The cleanliness of the place was okay. We found garbage when we arrived. We wish there was a broom in addition to the vacuum for clean up. We were not able to use the living room TV because we could not hook it up to the wireless and there were no directions. The water view was beautiful but the seaweeds and spiders didn't allow us to fully enjoy it. There were cow webs all around the outdoor seating area and backyard also. This place does provide bicycles, kayaks, and paddle boards for use, but we did not use them. You definitely need water shoes for this place!

Great stay on the Bay

Our family (adults and kids) very much enjoyed our stay at Shamrock Bay. It was nice being away from the hustle and bustle of the main towns, which were just a short drive away. We loved the yard games, roasting marshmallows, and watching the sunsets. Communication was stellar.
