My wife and I enjoy occasional 3-day weekends to Door County and usually try to get a rental "off the beaten path." We decided on this house because the photos indicated it would be very open with a lot of natural light, with views of the woods. We were not disappointed! The property was clean, the house was warm even though the weekend was quite cold, and we appreciated that it is pet-friendly. We enjoyed reading and cooking together there. It is also only 15-20mn from Sturgeon Bay--far enough out we did not hear much traffic, but close enough to town. The only frustration was on the day we arrived. We drove up the day after a major snowfall which was followed by several days of cold with subzero windchills--not uncommon in winter. The main roads including I-43 and Hwy 57 were in good condition and the county highways were passable. However, the house is at the top of a hill which was too slippery for our sedan to ascend. Fortunately, we were able to approach from the opposite direction. When we tried to park, we found the driveway/parking area had been plowed but had not been salted or was lightly salted. Our car had difficulty turning on the ice and ended up impacted into a snowbank. We were able to get it out ourselves the next morning and parked the second night in an alternate parking area that the owner recommended. The owner was very responsive when contacted and did follow up the next day. Overall, very bright, clean, and warm rental. Thank you!

Upon first entering the property, we immediately noticed how clean the house was, especially being dog friendly! The kitchen is well-stocked and the sleep number bed made for restful nights. The property itself is quiet and wooded for privacy. While not in the heart of Door County, it's close enough that we weren't bothered... it was nice to escape some of the hustle and bustle. Will definitely stay here again!

Peaceful, clean, comfy. Great place.

My best friend and our husbands took a weekend trip to Door County and stayed at the Idlewild Hideaway. The cabin was beautiful, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to make meals, and there was a beautiful outdoor area on the deck to enjoy the scenery. Tom was great about communication. We even got to enjoy the weekend with our dogs. I would highly recommend the Idyllwild hideaway to anyone and we hope to come back to stay again soon.

This property was fantastic! The owner even included snacks for our stay! It was very clean and well kept. We loved the gas fire pit! Loved the fact that we were very close to the Sherwood Light House!

Easy to get to. You are south of all the Door County locations so you are driving to get to the popular destinations. But you also miss all the traffic if leaving on a Sunday. Definitely recommend this place to stay.

Great location & very clean. Couldn't of had a better stay!

We definitely enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and we felt right at home. It was a joy to come “home” every night after site seeing every day. Our elderly dog even felt right at home.
