Modern 2-Bedroom Cottage Nestled Away in Northern Door County

Escape to Först Cottage, a brand-new vacation rental thoughtfully designed with both elegance and comfort in mind — all just minutes from Northport, Ellison Bay and Sister Bay.

Enjoy modern conveniences inside and a picturesque landscape outside.

The space
Retreat to Först Cottage after a long day of touring Door County, and feel like you're away from it all. A warm meal in the modern kitchen. A refreshing shower in the custom bathroom. A fresh cup of coffee on the patio. Relaxing bonfires under dark, starry nights.

Först Cottage is your private retreat, yet so close to everything the peninsula has to offer. It's the perfect combination of coastal and woodland escapes, from seagulls flying overhead to deer passing through in the evening, from cool bayside breezes in the morning to the gentle whisper of rustling leaves.

It's cozy, quiet, and quintessential Door County.

This is by far the best place I have ever stayed at in Door County. A beautiful modern cottage nestled in the northern part of the peninsula, there were so many amenities we couldn't possibly take advantage of them all during our stay. I loved the attention to detail in the cottage design, then the interior design. So thoughtful and elegant! We enjoyed the fire pit, hanging out reading, sleeping with the windows open, and the little toad visitors on the patio! Cory was easily accessible with answers to all of our questions. I loved being away from the more crowded towns and having to take the iconic curvy Hwy 42 to get here. Highlights of our trip were the cottage, Jackson Harbor Soup on Washington Island,The Peninsula Bookman and Coyote Roadhouse. Until the next time...as we plan to book a stay here again!

We loved this gorgeous, modern, escape! Tucked away in a quiet nook, it was just what we needed. Excellent host communication, clean, cozy new home. Most every kitchen and bathroom amenity you’d need. We loved the games that were provided, was fun playing with the kids in the evenings. We felt like royalty all weekend! Would highly recommend.

This is what a property should be like when you go. Everything was so well thought out and so taken care of, everywhere we looked made us happy. There was a surprise or something that made life better in the property in every room. Our whole family was blown away.
