Located in the heart of Door County

Welcome to the Nordic Hearth Cottage, a charming, historic three bedroom log home! This beautiful getaway with newly restored fireplace is set on an acre of land on Townline Drive, equidistant from the villages of Ephraim and Sister Bay, and right in the heart of Door County. Find shopping, restaurants, galleries, and a spa within steps of Nordic Hearth Cottage. By car, our central location on the peninsula puts our guests only minutes away from beaches, wineries, trolley tours, dozens of outdoor activities, and the breathtaking scenery that Door County has to offer!
Full of natural light and whimsical Scandinavian touches, this cozy cottage combines old world charm with all the comforts of home. Towels and bed linens are provided, and the newly remodeled bathroom is stocked with bar soap, toilet paper, and a hair dryer. Each of the bedrooms has a dresser and spacious closet, so unpack and make yourself at home! The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare and serve home-cooked meals, and the open dining concept makes the space perfect for family gatherings. Stock up on groceries from the Piggly Wiggly just two miles from the cottage in Sister Bay, and help yourself to the tea and coffee we’ve already provided!
Nordic Hearth is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy some time away from it all. Get comfy in the living room and browse satellite TV channels (or Chromecast ) or spend quiet time in the sunroom, (enjoy fantastic views of the sunrise/sunset!!), get lost in a book; or take in the beautiful surroundings as you lounge on the deck. The property’s large yard is the perfect place to make the most of Door County summer nights and stargaze away from city lights. Or, if you visit us in the winter, spend your evenings cozied up by the wood-burning stone fireplace- newly renovated. We also provide books, DVDs, and board games for rainy days. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or booking requests. I am happy to accommodate you and hope to make your next Door County visit the best one yet!

Best Time at this Door County Cottage!
The cottage was clean and beautifully decorated! Julia left clear and easy to follow check-in and check-out instructions. The cottage is located in the heart of Door County, so we were able to explore the downtown areas of several towns, rent bikes, and go hiking, all without spending a lot of time in the car. We had the best time and hope to be back!

First Vacation in DC
We enjoyed our first stay in DC in this home. The home was fully equipped with all the essentials, was clean, and in a great location close to many attractions but far enough that it was quiet and pleasant. We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit at night . Julia was very responsive and nice. Recommend this place especially for families with young children.

Sister trip
This house was a wonderful place to stay with my sister and our kids. Beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything you would need, house was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed coffee on the front porch each morning, it was fun to see the hummingbirds eating from the feeder. We enjoyed bonfires and star gazing at night. The neighborhood was quiet but close to a few fun things (mini golf, shops, farmers market). I’d stay again!
