The Point: Our first cabin on Clark Lake that started it all.
When the best Clark Lake property on its own peninsula became available, we knew we had to find a way to make it ours! We couldn't be prouder to be the owners of The Point and share this slice of heaven with you. Think of it as high-end cabin comfort, with more than 1,200 feet of lakefront land and plenty of room for larger groups. Sleeps up to 15.

Porte Haven: Luxury waterfront cabin in northern Door County
Set on a Lake Michigan bluff at the very tip of the Door County Peninsula, Porte Haven feels like you're actually on a boat with views that are beyond spectacular: you see 4 islands, and the Washington Island Ferry goes by every hour. Enjoy an upscale cabin built on top of an old boathouse and hosts groups with a maximum of 6 adults (kids welcome too) and feels very private, but there's also an energy and vastness to all that's happening on the water surrounding it.

The Bay: A modern-eclectic cabin with full views of Clark Lake.
Just 10 doors down from The Point, The Bay is warm and inviting, with cozy-chic interiors, a pellet stove and fire pit, shallow swimming for kids by the dock, and an amazing and spacious deck with a farm table and patio furniture to enjoy one of Door County's unbelievable sunsets. It has everything you could want for an unforgettable lake getaway. Sleeps up to 8, maximum of 6 adults.

We can't wait to host your next family getaway!

Perfect Getaway

As a longtime veteran vacay rental person, this one would make Scott McGillivray* proud. The needs of the renter are anticipated and the setting has been honestly presented online. No unexpected "sharing with neighbors" was a nice surprise. The tech is comfortable and appreciated, but not over the top. The towels, linens and kitchen supplies were comfortably used yet fresh, clean and coordinated. The décor was spot on, just enough interest without being overdone (thank you for minimal tchotchkes and lack of themed overkill.) Room size is decent, furniture was comfortable and the view was priceless. Location is fantastic for people who don't want immediate access to the shops and restaurants. Just the sound of the waves and the road to the town park and beach, my cup of tea. Solitude, nature, lake. Owner is available and helpful. (I have never been limited to one sentence, so pick the best one.) *Scott is host of Vacation House Rules on HGTV.

Great trip

We had a wonderful time at Rowley’s A-frame! It’s a charming home with a great outdoor area. It’s a great place just to hang out and enjoy some time by the water while still being only a short drive to Sister Bay. The hosts were very responsive and helpful too. Great find!

Wonderful and comfortable stay at Rowley's A-frame!

We loved our time at Rowley's A-frame! Jeremy was incredibly responsive and committed to ensuring that we had a great stay. The house was comfortable and just right for our group. And the recommendations in the welcome book were spot-on! This was our first vacation that included our 2 dogs and Roweley's A-frame was the perfect place to bring them. The outdoor area was equipped with two long tie-out runs for tethering the dogs. We humans enjoyed the sailboat, the kayaks, the deck table with a view, and the comfy Adirondack chairs by the water. This is a serene, comfortable, and picturesque spot located just about a 10-minute drive from the bustle of Sister Bay. I can't say enough good things--thank you!

Our new favorite after 30 years of Door County visits.

It’s all about the water...and the quiet! Your A-Frame at Rowley’s Bay is our new favorite for time in Door County! The warm interior wood and beams by the massive fireplace are the way to watch the waves roll in and across Rowley’s Bay. And for the perfect backdrop there’s the classic boats of the fishery on the far side. It’s relaxing just to relate it. As always, Caitlyn & Jeremy have everything smartly appointed and pristinely clean with really everything anyone in the family may want. They really go out of their way to make everything work and us RELAX. Anything we did need was just a few minutes away by Mustang in Sister Bay. Thanks again for your hard work and our spectacular rest!

About the host

Hosted by Jeremy and Caitlyn Jeffery

Meet your hosts, the Jeffery family.
We believe in collecting memories, not things—and aim to create a space where you & your loved ones will want to return for years to come.

There’s no place on the planet I love more than Door County. I’m Caitlyn, wife to Jeremy and mama to two girls, Liliana and Addison. My extended family has been vacationing in Door County for more than 100 years, and I grew up making some of my all-time most-cherished memories here.

It’s an absolute dream to now get to share this place with others... To help you to plan your vacations here, slow down for a little while, and experience time together that will be looked back on warmly for years to come. Door County is something special—it’s driving distance from Chicago and several Midwestern metropolises, but it’s remote enough to feel like an escape from the regular fast pace of life. You can cozy up by a fire in one of our cabins, spend your days on the water, or explore the specialty shops, unbelievable restaurants, outdoor activities, and delightful wineries Door County has to offer. There’s truly something for everyone in Door County.

We stand for…

We stand for… Embracing rest, lake water, and time spent with your people as the best cure-all to recover from fast-paced days and jam-packed schedules.

We stand for… Creating an environment rich with opportunity to disconnect from the outside world and reconnect with loved ones.

We stand for… Taking care of all the details & essentials, so you and your family (dogs, too!) can unplug, play, relax, and make life-lasting memories at the lake, year after year.

Why they chose this property

Door County is an amazing place with top notch restaurants, wineries and so many other activities for visitors to enjoy. When you stay at Rowleys A-frame, you get the best of both worlds with lake life: boating, swimming, fishing and being close to state parks including hiking and biking trails....all while being close to everything else in the area!
