Warning for seniors

This is a charming cottage in a wooded area north of the downtown area in Sister Bay. When we first entered the property there was a strong burning smell which would be from the fireplace - the chimney perhaps needs to be cleaned. The picture of the property on VRBO made it look like it was very light and bright but it’s pretty dim due to being in a wooded area. The description also said that the property was .3 miles from downtown but my watch said it was .5 to the stop sign and most of downtown was at least a couple blocks further. Our group was made up of 4 female senior citizens and the steps to the loft were steep and the treads are not very deep; the bed in the main floor bedroom is so high that only 1 person in our party was able to use it; there are several throw rugs on the floors which are a tripping hazard for many. The couch is older and sits rather low and soft. The four of us were able to use the table but it would be too small for a larger group.

Pros and cons

Property location is walking distance to shops/restaurants in comfy shoes for average fit people. Tucked in a wooded neighborhood. Property has dated furnishings/carpet and hodgepodge of mismatched and old decor. Musty upon walking in. Cozy wood burning fireplace. Couch is very used. Did not use kitchen appliances or charcoal grill. Mattresses not comfy, bed frames creaky. Towel quality and shower / water pressure great. Bathroom exhaust fans are so loud they will wake up anyone sleeping below or in adjacent room. Thought price was high for the accommodations. Check in process and correspondence with owner is excellent.

Close enough and quiet enough

Excellent location for restaurants and ability to explore the east side of the peninsula. Great layout and it was so quiet …which was amazing and one of the things we go up to DC for. Thank you Micah!

Sister’s trip

We had a great time in Door Co/Sister Bay! Lots to do in Sister Bay and short drives to Fish Creek, Egg Harbor, and Bailey’s Harbor—all the great Door Co spots. Door in the Woods was very convenient to these places but not walkable to town unless you are avid walkers. Good location with car—very close!! We arrived during a heat wave, temps close to 90 degrees and the lack of AC and room fans made the first night particularly uncomfortable. (There were two portable fans—thank you!— but none for the 3rd bedroom.) Very homey furnishings, but some were quite dated. The pictures online are accurate. Beds very comfortable and VERY CLEAN, crisp linens. Property manager easy to work with and responsive. This was a good-sized home for our group of three.
