Jordan, Murphy, and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cottage! It was the perfect size for the three of us and made for an ideal getaway in Ephraim.The property was incredibly clean from the moment we arrived, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining it. The location couldn't have been better—we were able to easily walk to downtown Ephraim to enjoy the shops, restaurants, and waterfront, which made the trip even more relaxing.One of the underrated perks was having dedicated parking. It was so nice not having to worry about finding street parking or moving the car throughout our stay. We also really appreciated how well the air conditioning worked. The cottage stayed at a consistently comfortable temperature, even during the warmer parts of the day.Overall, this was the perfect place for a couple traveling with their dog, and we wouldn't hesitate to book it again the next time we're in Door County. Highly recommend!
