Perfect location!

The house is a reasonable drive to anything on the Peninsula you might want to see either North or South, and an easy walk to Sister Bay shops and restaurants. Yet it feels tucked away on a quiet street with plenty of space and privacy. We had a great time and would definitely book again!

Spacious family home base with great views

Very great jumping off point for a fun visit to door county. Walkable to Sister Bay main downtown and beach. Clean place, great amenities for a baby/kids, and lovely views. Highly recommend if you can afford since it is pricey.

Great location

We have been coming to DC every summer for many years, but this was our first time staying at this location. We chose this property due to the walkability to town, year being just a bit off the main drag. Location was great, house was lovely, clean and stocked with everything we needed. We did not need to reach out to management, but that was because they provided everything we needed in advance of our arrival. Overall great stay!

Perfect for kids

Our stay was wonderful! We loved the set-up of the house. It was great for small children. We utilized the high chair, pack n play, kids toys, kids kitchenware, etc during our stay. The location was great - within walking distance of town and quiet for our little ones. We liked that the primary bedroom was separate from the smaller rooms where our kids slept. We didn’t feel like we had to tiptoe around after 7pm. Would highly recommend!!

Great layout and great location

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay at the Wooded Sister Bay retreat. I liked the layout with the large primary bedroom off of the dining room with its own bathroom on one side and our college aged kids each had their own room on the other side of the house. One morning my daughter and I walked into town to shop while the boys golfed as it was located super convenient to town. The kitchen had all the basics to prepare a meal and we cooked dinner 2 nights there. We appreciated the big bag of ice left in the freezer! All of the furniture seemed newer and in good shape, although maybe like Wayfair quality. The beds were very comfy and we all slept well. Thank you for an enjoyable stay!

Hidden gem!

Hidden Hideaway was perfect for our family to spend 5 days exploring Door County. The home was spacious enough for 3 kids (age 8-15), clean and well maintained. The house has beautiful updates, lovely decor and located on a beautiful wooded site. Walking distance to the Sister Bay Marina to watch the sunsets, and a close drive to all that Door County has to offer. Highly recommend!

Good family stay home

We booked this as a 5 night 4 day stay for myself, my husband, both of our parents and our 2 dogs. The house is nicely located in a cute quite neighborhood in Sister Bay just a short 10 minute walk to the main drag. The street is quiet enough that it was easy to take the dogs for a walk without worrying about a lot of traffic. All of the rooms are nicely sized and were comfortable for 3 adult couples. The living room area is split into two seeting areas and had enough seating for the 6 of us. Good sized dining space comfortably sat all of us. The kitchen is a bit on the smaller size for counterspace so if your planning to cook a lot of your meals the dining table will come in handy for prep and the full size refrigerator with freezer held all of our food without issue. Overall we had a very nice time even with the unseasonably cold and windy weather we had while visiting.
