Private DC Hideaway ten minutes from beaches!

This quaint Hideaway is nestled half way between Lake Michigan and the Bay of Green Bay. Just a short ten minute drive you can have a lovely day at the beach with amazing Door County views.
Come back home, start the grill, enjoy a beverage while cooking a meal for all to enjoy. After a delicious meal and lots of laughs, you all enjoy some quiet country ambiance under the stars on the back patio. Continue the the fun and laughs until the wee hours of the night or your hearts content.

Or take an afternoon stroll down the Ahnapee trail taking in the local wildlife and beautiful scenery.

The property was beautiful, relaxing, and was a perfect location in the country. Tracie was very responsive to emails/texts and everything we needed was readily available, from towels to dishes and pots and pans. It’s a great spot for a mom/daughter weekend or a larger group getaway. I’d definitely put this place as one of my favorites so far.

Beautiful home & so comfortable and clean!! Great communication with Tracie & she was very welcoming. Back yard was so peaceful & beautiful. Watching horses in an open field next to the property were an added bonus. At night the stars felt like a blanket, so stunning & bright. Perfect location to relax & enjoy family.

Awesome place in Door County with large family with pets

The only reason I didn't rate it a 5 overall was because the hot water heater, dishwasher, and A/C weren't working great when we were there. Other than that, the place was perfect for our family of 5 with 2 dogs. Within easy walking and biking distance of a beautiful biking trail that goes into Sturgeon Bay. Beautiful property with horses and goats to look at. Host was very responsive with excellent communication.

Enjoyable DC Stay!

We had an incredible getaway weekend! Host was incredibly responsive to any questions that we had, check in was a breeze, and the property was beautiful!! We brought our pups with us, so the huge backyard was amazing for letting them run! House had anything and everything that we could possibly need. We will definitely be back to visit again!

The house was clean and spacious. And the lot was very spacious. We enjoyed sitting out on the back patio enjoying our morning coffee. It is a nice rural neighborhood. We enjoyed seeing the horses and hearing the rooster crow of a morning. It was nice to meet the owner of the property as she lives in the basement of the home. The internet kept going out which made the TV unusable. And the cycling of either the sump pump or else the sewer lift pump was loud enough in one of the bedrooms to interfere with sleeping. But otherwise we enjoyed our stay very much.

Peaceful Escape

We loved the quietness, cleanliness, and convenience of this home. We slept very well and loved spending time there. The goats, mini horse, and horse and her foal that we saw out back made the stay that much better. Thank you for the lovely experience!

Very comfortable home

We really enjoyed our short stay. The house is decorated great and was a very comfortable home. The only problem we had was that the hot water heater couldn't keep up when we all needed to shower.

Peaceful getaway

We had a wonderful stay at this property. There was an abundance of gathering spaces both inside and outside. A large patio and yard was perfect for a cookout and provided a great place for our dog to enjoy as well. The kitchen was well-equipped and with a large island and dining room table, there was ample space for cooking and enjoying each other's company.

Serene Escape

We loved this property. It was perfect for our group of three couples. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed having coffee on the patio and feeling like we were in the country. It was a lovely place to come back to after our adventures in upper Door County.

Sturgeon Bay Hideaway

The property is spacious and equipped with ANYTHING one could need. It was a clean home with lots of great places to sit and enjoy time with a big family. We were so happy to stay here. We enjoyed the soaking tub in the master bath and the couch mattresses for our young ones. Ingenious!

Peaceful, relaxing hideaway

House was immaculate. Beautiful accommodations. A lot of extras were included. Close to a lot of attractions in a quiet country neighborhood. We often sat out on the deck in the evenings and watched the wild life. A cherry orchard was just down the road from the house. We definitely would book again.

Upon arrival, everything was clean and just like the pictures and description online. Kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. House was spacious and nicely furnished. Only negatives were the lack of hot water in the master bath shower and the inoperative dish washer. Plenty of hot water available at the master bath sink and other faucets in kitchen and second bath. Appeared an adjustment to the shower faucet is necessary -- it would only move a quarter turn. Recommend a plumber inspect and adjust the shower and the dishwasher be repaired/replaced. Appreciated the use of the washer and dryer.

Private Hideaway

Very peaceful, refreshing countryside VRBO. Stocked with any amenities you may need. Garage included. We had too short of a stay but love Door County and this was a wonderful place to stay. Our dog loved running and walking the state trail close by and the lovely large backyard to throw the ring. It was great to wake with coffee on the patio and close the day relaxing.

Great weekend stay!

The home was just as advertised. Our host was super helpful and gracious. She allowed us an additional 2 hours to check out as our 3 husbands participated in the Sturgeon Bay bicycle event! Home was clean and more than spacious. We never knew she was home in the downstairs apartment. The side yard is large and next stay we’ll have to remember to bring out croquet set. Thank you Tracie for opening your home to us!

We loved it

We loved our stay at Tracies, if you’re totally looking to relax after your days in door county this is your place! When.You arrive there is a code entrance ❤️the house was so clean, kitchen was nice and big for our group, no bumping into each other! My grandson loved the egg shape egg chair, so did the adults. 🤣 two adult men 23 and 24 slept on the couch they said it was comfortable. We enjoy the fire pit, the yard is Hugh for volleyball, etc there is a garage door opener, very nice appliances. We loved the big table for everyone to sit at! The dogs loved running around in the open yard! it’s just a hope skip and jump distance to all your fun in door county! We ride jet ski’s at beach harbor resort, there’s a lot of fun there, swimming, volleyball, bing bag toss, scooter rentals etc food, drinks, a beautiful view of the lake, just 10 minutes from Tracies house. Thanks again Tracie nice place

Nice place

House was in a nice location. Spacious and roomy. I do not want to give this place a bad review because it really was all in all a nice find! But I do want to mention that the Beds were rock hard! The mattress are best described as camper mattress! There wasn’t much for hot water and did not get hot. The listing says host in lower apartment… maybe that is taken differently to those that read that but to me “lower apartment” means a different unit. Lower apartment in this home was host lived in the basement However, used a separate entry. The stairs from upstairs to down was gated off so I’m not sure exactly the construction. It felt very odd and “off” at first but we adjusted fine. Finally, there was no kitchen dish soap. This comment is a frustration for any place because the hosts give you a list of everything they want you to do to leave the house the way you found it but without the tools to do so. Other than these few things this was a great place!
