Family-Friendly, Historic, Renovated Sister Bay Farmhouse with Crib + Toys
We believe a vacation rental is more than just a place to sleep—it is the setting for the moments you’ll carry with you long after you leave. Part of ANTHOLOGY STAYS, this renovated 1923 farmhouse honors the heritage of Door County vacationing by providing a space designed for connection. Whether you are prepping a meal around the reclaimed wood kitchen island or sharing stories in the living room, we provide the backdrop so you can focus on creating the stories you’ll recall for years to come.
Every detail is curated to help you slow down and lean into the beauty and history of the peninsula: getting lost in a puzzle on a rainy afternoon, challenging the kids to a board game, or cozying up in the window seat with a good book. From enjoying a home-cooked meal around the dinner table, to watching the sunset through the trees, this is your place to reconnect with the people who matter most and add a beautiful new chapter to your family’s history.

Perfect for my family because of how dog and kid friendly it was. Also, one of the best decorated VRBOs I have ever stayed in. Would definitely stay again next time in Door County.
This was a very nice place. We had hoped to rent a place on the water, but got going too late - and then this house was available, and we were really happy with it! It was very peaceful and charming: warm, cozy, inviting, and comfortable. The house was very well set up for our dogs - and it really looked like a great place for families with kids: calm, private, not far from town, tons of toys and a swing set. You’ll enjoy it!

I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and the amenities during your time at Oak & Orchard House, Jordan. I love cooking in that kitchen, too—any time of the year. We hope to welcome you back again some day!
Our stay was wonderful! The house and grounds are just as pictured. We especially loved the porch for morning coffee and the backyard for an evening fire and some star gazing! Check in and out was quick and easy. Beautiful home!
Everything was great and the small issue we had was resolved right away. Truly enjoyed our stay and would come back again. We enjoyed how quiet it is there!
What a quaint and charming farmhouse! So beautifully decorated as well. We enjoyed our stay immensely. It was comfortable to relax in at all times of the day. We especially liked the swing bench on the porch every morning as we drank our coffee. It was also conveniently located to all the adorable little towns.
We loved this immaculate and comfortable house which is close to sister bay. It was perfect for our family of 5. Beautiful deck to relax on and listen to wind in the trees. We would happily stay again.
Far exceeded expectations! Meticulously cleaned, beautifully decorated, fully stocked, excellent location and spacious. Can't wait to come back in warmer weather to take full advantage of the large front porch, deck, fire pit and bikes!
We had a wonderful time staying here - a beautiful house in a great location. We were able to relax in peaceful surroundings yet close enough to get to either Sister Bay or Ellison Bay for fun and sun. Martina was a great host and quick to respond to any questions. Thanks for everything!
