Historic Anderson House in Ephraim - Eagle Harbor View

Location! Location! Location! Anderson House is an amazing vacation destination with location and views that can’t be beat! Situated across from Ephraim's famous Anderson Dock. The historic house, built in 1864 by one of Ephraim's most prominent families, is rich in history.

The main floor has a large living room with the original 1864 log walls, molding and floors. A den with log and stone walls with comfy furniture and a Smart TV. A fully equipped kitchen and dining area leads into the impressive four seasons sunroom. with an award winning wet bar, and another smart tv. On the second level are four bedrooms (1 king, 2 queens, 2 twin beds), a sitting room and 2 full bathrooms.

Relax in the beautiful alpine garden, and enjoy dining alfresco on the stone patio with seating area and gas grill.

Anderson House has so much to offer. Charming restaurants are within walking distance, as is iconic Door County's oldest ice cream parlor. Stunning sunsets await you right across the street at Anderson dock. And if there is a fisherman in your party, pack the fishing gear! Anderson Dock is the perfect place to try your luck. Museums, caves, and a Door County Land Trust walking trail are also in our neighborhood.

A portion of the house, separate from the living area, is the Anderson House Shop and Gallery. Since 1969 the Shop has been one of Door Counties oldest and best loved gift shops. Our house guests will receive a 20% discount on their purchases in Anderson House Shop during their stay.

History of the Anderson House:
Historic Anderson House was built in three stages by Asslag Anderson, a Norwegian immigrant. After completing the dock and Anderson General Store, he built a small three-room house and a rather large summer kitchen behind the house. The store has a second-floor apartment which the family used for additional living space. In 1864 the two-story log home was constructed, a free-standing structure very close to the original house. In the early 1870’s the two homes were connected, a front porch was added, and a second story added above the first sunroom is the only part of the current configuration not built by the Anderson’s. Originally constructed as a working greenhouse in the 1960’s; then in the 1980’s, it was remodeled into a four seasons room.

With the completion of the house, the second floor boasted ten bedrooms and the house become one of Ephraim’s first guest houses. A grand piano graced the living room and the second floor had a bathroom, only used by guests, the family used the outdoor privy.

Anderson House is steeped in history and once again joyously welcoming guests!
