Tranquility Bay

The view is amazing, watched the sunrise every morning. We were lucky the weather was in the mid 70's in July, there is no A/C at this rental so keep that in mind when choosing this location.

Quiet,peaceful, private location

Owners provided full details by email the week before our stay. The home was clean and all the amenities were provided for pleasant lake house stay. The WiFi and satellite TV was easy and straightforward to access. The Lake Michigan side of Door County is less busy and the best area to unwind and relax.

Beautiful, Peaceful and Relaxing

Very quiet. We absolutely loved it. The stars both nights were both of my daughter’s and my wife’s favorite part. You could see the Milky Way! Countless shooting stars!

The home was nice and the area private and quiet. It took many phone calls to check in and then had to call again to get an access code. NOTHING was sent prior to the stay.

A Relaxing Weekend

We really enjoyed the views from this location. It was very quiet and peaceful and private. When we arrived a Bald Eagle soared above us. We skipped rocks, and swam, and fished. We had bonfires, and laughed, and listened to music. The drive to Sister Bay is less than 10 minutes, and a straight shot, making it super easy to visit the beach, shops, and restaurants. The "cabin" has been updated and is nice. There is no air conditioning, but the breeze from the lake makes sleeping just fine. We would stay at this location again.

Room for 3 not 6

Property has beautiful view and yard. Common space inside is very small. No table, 3 stools and room for 3 in living room. Cross your fingers for good weather. Definitely no room for 6 on a rainy day.
