Cabin on the lake

It was peaceful and quiet. Reminded us of going up North as kids. Picked it to get away from the city and did not disappoint.

Amazing spot!

We rented this cottage to celebrate our 25th anniversary, it was perfect. Loved the location and rocky beach for sunsets. So cool to read about family history of the place, several pictures hanging in bathroom of cottage being built and family spending time there. Cottage was built in 50s but maintained well and clean.

Family Getaway

Stony Shore was an absolutely beautiful spot to enjoy our family vacation with our best friends and our children! Gorgeous views and we loved playing games and having dinner out on the screened in porch. WiFi connection was always decent so the kids could enjoy a movie at wind-down time, and we were able to cook full meals in the kitchen with dishes and utensils provided by the hosts. We would definitely consider staying here again!

Late summer stay

The cabin was exceptionally clean. Everything we needed was there. We didn’t really cook there but a full sized refrigerator was nice for drinks, snacks, leftovers and purchases. The beds were comfortable. The property was perfect. We had 4 adults and had plenty of room. Thank you for such a nice place to stay.

Great on lake, between Sturgeon Bay and Egg Harbor

2 adults and 4 kids comfortable (2 BR with queens, plus a futon in FR), room to play and relax, plus a great screen porch. Basic but clean and comfortable, private. Nice yard including a fire pit and lake view deck, shore is fine for kids' supervised exploring (not sure about swimming) - but a nice large sand beach a couple miles toward Egg Harbor is great.

Clean and relaxing stay!

We loved our stay. The location was perfect for us—quieter than being right in the thick of things, but still easily accessible to the whole peninsula. Also, being right on the water was amazing! We got great use of the screened porch, deck right on the water, and the lovely yard with nice charcoal grill and fire pit. The cabin is small, but incredibly clean, and worked great for us! Highly recommend for a couple or small family. It was also perfect for our two small dogs as well.
