Cozy retreat. 1 bedroom house, Welcome! May 1st -Nov 1st internet & wifi

Nature abounds at this peaceful cottage for one or two. If you're looking just to get away from it all, write the Great American Novel, or kick back and relax, this is the perfect place for you! Sit by the campfire, enjoy the deck or on those cooler nights, light a fire in the fireplace and get cozy. Cottage has been completely renovated and redone from head to toe. Perfect for one or two or a couple with a baby. King size bed in bedroom with large wall of windows that overlook the rear yard and woods. On an acre of land. About 10 minutes from Sturgeon Bay, which is filled with quaint shops and delightful restaurants.
For you safety we do have one security camera located on property. Camera facing entrance to the driveway.
Garage on property is not part of rental agreement.

Hosts were great, easy to communicate with. Cottage was cleaned and well supplied. Far enough from town to be very quiet, but close enough for easy access to Sturgeon Bay. We are already planning our next stay here, it was great!

We had a lovely stay at this VRBO. It was tranquil, clean, had everything we needed, and was close to everything we wanted to see in Door County. We didn’t communicate with the owner much…no need to. Check in/out were seamless and everything worked as expected. Would definitely come back.

Quaint and Cozy Weekend Getaway

Stayed for 4 nights and it was amazing! Perfect size for a getaway in a quiet part of town but still very close to everything Door County has to offer. The owners were very responsive and our stay was very clean and welcoming. We will miss it!

This was our second time staying at The Hideway. We love the privacy and setting. The cottage is comfortable and perfect for making food, relaxing and heading a short distance into town. The owner’s responded quickly to our questions.The WiFi is very spotty making it a challenge to watch the TV or go online but that is part of the getaway charm.

5 Night Stay

Great little house - spacious/open floor plan. Very private. Comfortable bed. Second bathroom was a plus. Huge deck with grill was nice. Easy to access all that Door County offers. Host was very responsive and any issues we encountered were addressed. Unfortunately poor internet connection and little to no phone reception when we stayed. We would definitely stay again.

Great accommodations

I recently stayed here 4 nights with a friend while fishing in the Little Sturgeon Bay Area. The location is great for fishing and the cabin was perfect for our needs. We found it to be very clean and comfortable. The driveway was great to park our boat at night. The owner is top notch as he specifically wired an outdoor outlet on the side of the garage prior to our stay so it would be easy for us to charge our boat batteries at night. We would definitely stay here again.

Quiet, Out of the way stay for Two

We were on our Honeymoon and this lovely cottage was perfect for us. Even though it feels like it's out of the way, it's only 10 minutes from Sturgeon Bay, so it's a great location!
