About the host
Hosted by Laura & Nick
Hi, We’re Laura and Nick! We both grew up visiting Door County as children, a couple, and then as a family of 4. We cherish our family time in Door County enjoying water sights, fishing, going to the beach, seeing drive-in movies, and enjoying restaurants. When we aren’t able to be at the cottage, we looking forward to being able to share our home with you to create those same special memories.
