Our favorite VRBO, right on the water!!
We love this place for the 2 of us. Beautiful location right on the water in Gills Rock. Small but functional kitchen, so we can eat some meals in. Great bathroom and huge closet. The views are spectacular all day and into the evening! And the sunsets!! Gretel and Dan are amazing hosts and we will return, again and again!

Felt like we hit a home run. Everything was perfect for a romantic getaway. Weather was terrible and we couldn’t have cared less. Didn’t get to use the outdoor amenities provided but it was the perfect space to hang out. Gretel has thought of just about everything. Thanks for a great stay!

Was a great stay, just wish the Wi-Fi was working so we could have done some online looking for places to go and things to do. On a side note AT&T does not have good coverage on that part of the peninsula either.

Our favorite VRBO!!
We always enjoy our stay here, on the water, in Gills Rock! This unit is well-equipped for my husband and I to be comfortable: a small kitchen that allows for several meals to be enjoyed right here, a wonderful bathroom, spacious closet, and plenty of space for the 2 of us. Easy access for daily paddling in Hedgehog Harbor & Garrett Bay, and those sunsets!! We keep on returning to enjoy this wonderful slice of Heaven here on earth. Thanks so much Gretel and Dan!!

Our stay in the cherry unit was cozy and comfortable. The fireplace within the unit added an extra warm & fuzzy as the high temp was 35-45 degrees. The view is absolutely spectacular! We will definitely be returning here.

Such a charming place- almost felt like we were in another country. The snow and ice also made it feel magical. Hosts were available and very helpful! We also used the 101 things to do in Door County book and found a few special spots. Would definitely recommend this place!

Breathtaking sunsets over the water!
These were beautiful and comfortable accommodations with a balcony that overlooks the lake. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious with a walk in shower and a whirlpool bathtub big enough for two. There was a walk in closet with plenty of room to unpack and to hang things up. We spent most of our time away from the unit and ate out, but I noticed that there was a George Foreman grill and even a picnic basket. The first night we had trouble figuring out how to get the TV working and the owner came right over to help us.

Another excellent stay at our favorite VRBO!
This property is wonderful! It is right on the water with spectacular views of the sunsets every evening and with easy ability to paddle my kayak right from shore. There is plenty of space for my husband & I, a basic, well-equipped kitchen to have a few meals in, and a wonderful bathroom and massive closet. The owners are wonderful. We have been here many times now, and we already have another stay booked for May! Thanks Gretel & Dan!!
