Fall visit
A girls trip, we are all mature women who wanted a comfortable place to do some cooking and relax after full days of sightseeing The property was as I expected with it being a charming place. There were plenty of seats for two but not 3 as that was disappointing even had to rearrange the kitchen table to eat meals. The living room love seat was quite worn and not comfortable for sitting The porch was covered in spiders and cobwebs. There was no soap at the kitchen or bathroom sinks as well as no towels We knew and did bring). I was disappointed in the shape of the cook wear. And with no easy to scrub the pans they were very worn. Dishes took longer than needed. There was a fly infestation and with the cleaning fee I paid I did expect to have the place cleaned. It was charming and the beds were comfortable.

Quaint place with great history
A girlfriend's weekend was very much enjoyed in this sweet home. It was a nice break with being off the grid. Kitchen is well stocked, beds are comfortable, window air conditioner helped to make it cooler. Private location close to the ferry and restaurants.Only complaint is the musty smell. There was a dehumidifiers which helped.

Quaint, quiet, secluded, perfect for us! Love the wrap-around porch. People should be aware, however, that not only is there no wi-fi, there is also almost no cell phone connectivity at times. That's probably a good thing. probab thing. 🤔

Absolutely lovely stay! Though the cabin is rustic, it is clean and maintains its temperature via the AC. It was peaceful and quiet around the property, allowing calm mornings outside on the porch. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!

Convenient to local attractions
This is a good location to explore the local area. It is an easy drive to the Washington Island ferry (watch for the deer on the road, especially at night) and to Sister Bay. The house had everything we needed for a short stay in a very quiet location. Be aware that there is no wi-fi and spotty cell service, but we were certainly able to do without these for a few days.

Cabin is very clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. You can appreciate that much love was put into making if a perfect gateway. Property is a short distance from the Ellison Bay marina and the village center. You have to bring your own towels and toiletries. Overall, great place to unwind.
