This house is a passion project of four siblings. We grew up in this house and share a love for Fish Creek. We have fully renovated our family’s cottage to make it accessible and enjoyable for a large group of friends or family.
It certainly didn't hurt that our home just so happened to be in the very center of the BEST town on the peninsula :-) We can't wait to provide you with your home base for the perfect vacation! The treasure that is Door County is a short stroll from your front door.

Located in Fish Creek, this cottage is in the city centre. Lake Michigan and Peninsula State Park reflect the area's natural beauty and area attractions include Peg Egan Performing Arts Center and Egg Harbor Fun Park. Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf and Plum Loco Animal Farm are also worth visiting. Take in the nearby slopes with cross-country skiing, or try out other outdoor activities such as snowmobiling and sledging.
We stayed here for just over a week and it was perfect! The location couldn't be better with walkability to everywhere in Fish Creek. Gorgeous interior, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, beautiful kitchen (although we didn't cook), and perfect outdoor patio. The owners were communicative and check in was a breeze. Definitely hoping we can stay there again!
The beautiful house is in the perfect Fish Creek location. Close enough to walk everywhere- shopping, restaurants, harbor, and Sunset Beach.
We would definitely choose this home again when we return to the area.
This beautiful, newly renovated property was the perfect spot for our family to gather to enjoy all that Door County has to offer! Comfortable, convenient, charming, a true home away from home for our 2 week vacation!
The hosts were very attentive and easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay again!
What a sweet little house! Perfect for me, my husband, and our two tween/teen daughters. The house is perfectly located for walking around Fish Creek- shopping, Sunset Park, dining, ice cream! Also not a far drive to other towns and state parks. The house itself is clean, comfortable, and newly updated. We loved our stay!
This home is beautifully remodeled and decorated-like a page out of a magazine! Right in the heart of Fish Creek where you can walk to the water, all shops, and restaurants. Filled with thoughtful amenities and touches. We had a great stay and will definitely be back. Definitely one of the best rental homes I have ever stayed in.

Thank you so much for your kind words and we would love to have you back any time!
We had a very easy booking process and communication throughout with Stauber siblings leading up to our trip. The place is as advertised. Very easy access to Fish Creek and the Bayside
You couldn’t ask for a better location, clean, and beautifully updated cottage to stay at! Also, the price was right, and the owner let my friends and I stay for a quick 2 night weekend getaway. That’s hard to find. Will be staying here again 100%
The house was perfectly located for us to easily walk to shops, waterfront and restaurants. We had 8 adults and a baby comfortably stay for a week. The kitchen was well stocked for our family meals. The living room has a comfy cozy fire place and gathering room to relax and enjoy family time. I would highly recommend The Cottage at the Creek!
This house was just perfect!! Everything about this house was great for our family (3generations).
The house was exceptionally clean and spacious.
The kitchen and house had everything needed for our week. We were able to walk everywhere from coffee, to beach, shopping, dinner, and after dinner drinks. We did drive a couple places but mostly stayed in the area. We would stay again and so will family that stopped by.
My family had a great stay at Troy's property in Fish Creek. The home is very centrally located in town, walking distance from all the shops and restaurants in downtown Fish Creek, and a short drive to Peninsula State Park and some of our other favorite spots in nearby towns. The home itself is beautifully renovated and worked well for our family (our kids are 8, 6 & 4). The master is on the main level and our kids stayed in the bedrooms upstairs. That arrangement worked fine for us, but could be a consideration for families who prefer to sleep on the same level as kiddos. One trade off with the central location is lack of privacy - the house has neighbors on all four sides, so it did feel at times like we were in a fish bowl. It wasn't a problem, but just a potential consideration. All in all, we had a great experience. Communication with the owner was easy and we would highly recommend.
We had a fantastic time at the Cottage in the Creek. Ideal location. The place was incredibly clean. We went with 3 kids between the ages of 4-6. There could have been some more accommodations for younger kids like step stools since all the (beautifully renovated) bathrooms were of taller height and games/toys for kids that age. My other suggestion would be an additional TV in primary bath and a stool/chair/bench.
We loved staying at the cottage. So easy to walk to shops and dining. House was beautifully decorated and very organized. Would highly suggest staying here. You won’t be disappointed. Great time in Door county !
HOUSE WAS PERFECT!!! BEAUTIFUL HOME!! OWNERS THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING WE NEEDED TO MAKE THIS TRIP WITH FRIENDS ONE OF THE BEST. LOCATION OF HOME WAS CLOSE TO EVERYTHING. THE PATIO WAS A PERFECT SETTING FOR LONG TALKS AND LOTS OF LAUGHTER. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR A GREAT EXPERIENCE...WILL BE BACK AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!!
Nice job on the renovations of the property. Beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen/dining room were spacious.
Very quite area and within a stone's throw of FC shops/restaurants. Weather was cool with one day being rainy and windy and it would have been nice being indoors to have more expanded TV stations like TBS, A&E, TNT, etc.
But overall an amazing time and this quaint property
Cottage on the creek was better than we could have imagined. The house is in the perfect location in fish creek just a quick walk to shopping and restaurants. The house was beautiful and perfect for a large family to stay. We come to Door County each summer and this is the best place we have stayed yet!
This home is beautifully appointed, with very comfortable beds, high quality linens and kitchen appliances. It was super-clean and had sufficient paper products and cleaning supplies (thanks!). We were worried it would be noisy so near to Downtown, but it was quite peaceful. We enjoyed eating gelato from the nearby shop on the front 'patio,' as well as enjoying a glass of wine there before heading out for dinner. We were 7 adults ranging in age from 25-85 and we were very comfortable in the home. We highly recommend it!!
The house comfortably housed us all (6 adults, 2 kids and 1 toddler) but was cozy enough for us all to be together. The location was great. So much to walk to and the host was super responsive and helpful. We had a great stay.
After being home for the past 13 months-this was a perfect week away. Beautiful home within walking distance to so many shops, restaurants, activities. Teens felt very independent exploring the area on their own. House itself very comfortable with plenty of space to spread out-So much better than a hotel room!! Would most definitely return!
