Cannot get a better location in downtown sister bay! The proximity to the beach, park, restaurants, and shops makes this the easiest and most relaxing place to stay! Everyone loved playing bumper pool and ping pong on the rainy days in the basement. Such a great house!

Perfect Hosts and a Perfect Place

The hosts were so hospitable and thought of everything we may want or need and provided it for us. The location was great too, within close walking distance of all the attractions, but still quiet. I would definitely recommend this place and these hosts!

Amazing location

We stayed here for the Fall50 race. Location is amazing, walking distance to the beach, all the shops, restaurants. Can’t wait to come back with my family. Highly recommend this property. Only regret is that the race kept us so busy we didn’t get to enjoy the property or area more.

We had a great time. Great location. The house is clean and well taken care of. Walter is communicative and welcoming. It snowed, and we were able to go out on a guided hike at the Ridges Sanctuary. Enjoyed the peacefulness of Sister Bay at this time of year. We would love to go back.

Gem by the beach

We stayed here for a full week and will try to book this home each year from now on. For a home in Sister Bay, this location is hard to beat - it is walking distance to everything! The beach and park are steps away, which had several events like movies in the park, fireworks, and live music while we were there. The house is clean and has everything we could have needed for our stay including a fully stocked kitchen, a lovely backyard deck, and a game room with bumper pool and fooseball. We had an absolute blast here!!

Walter and his house were awesome. I almost don’t want to share this gem

First, Walter was awesome. I’d been to sister bay many times but this was the first time for my wife and early teenage kids. We had a blast and it was all due to Walter. He’s done such a great job and we could not be more grateful for his hospitality. Thank you so much. We will be back.
