8 Miles Of Sand Beach To Explore ~ Outstanding Sunset Views Over The Lake!

Walk 4 miles of empty beach in either direction or bike down a wooded road laced with million dollar homes. Our property is located in the most rural and secluded section of the most desirable Midwestern destination. Bikes and beach toys are provided with this totally equipped home which was built for large group rentals.

Children love to dig a waterhole in the beach, play with the odd homemade wooden toys or watch movies until they fall asleep in their rooms. Adults enjoy sharing breakfast for two on the roof porch or beach swing. The night sky is lit with stars while your family roasts marshmallows over a beach fire.

The beach house sits on top of a dune surrounded with pine trees. Large windows make viewing the lake a treat from each common area. Seamlessly, the stone design blends into the landscape making your transformation from the elegant inside into the dune environment an unforgettable experience. 4 kings, 3 queens, l small daybed, 2 full futons, cots and inflatables

Something for all ages

The beach house was roomy and home for our family of 11. Ranging from age 6 to 71! The view of the lake from inside was spectacular!The deck, which overlooks Lake Michigan was so inviting. Our grands spent most days and evenings on the smooth sandy beach or in the lake. (Life jackets of course) Mary & Ray were available if need be:)Already looking forward to next time!

Best beach in DC

This was our third year, and we enjoyed it as much as we always do. Absolutely the best beach in Door County. The views from the house are stunning. The house is like your grandparent’s well-loved beach house; lots of character. Plenty of rooms for our mini family get-together (7 adults & 1 teen.) The upstairs suite is breathtaking! Coffee on the deck, afternoons on the beach & dinners overlooking the water. Wonderful.

Mary's beach house is like coming home. It is a comfortable rustic place to stay with everything you need to enjoy your time on the beach. The views are breathtaking and the property is accessible. We had a wide range of ages with the oldest of our party being 89. The porch was their favorite perch and the path to the beach was easy enough for them to walk. If you're looking for a place that fits all ages, this is it.
