The property was a last minute booking for a Thanskgiving weekend stay with our adult children. The house was super clean, bed sheets were so white they looked brand new. Even though it was a pet-friendly rental, there was zero evidence that any pets had ever stayed there... not even a faint scent of pets or a stray dog hair. Lots of games to choose from. The location was great... lots of privacy and a spectacular view. Communication with the host was oustanding. Would definitelty choose this location again!

We had a wonderful time on a family getaway. The property had everything we could have wanted. We loved having access to a beach and boats right out the back door. The yard was perfect for afternoon reading and resting! We used the well-stocked kitchen to its fullest and were in need of nothing!
When we asked for a later check-out, Steve was super flexible, which was so appreciated. We are already talking about coming back!

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. The location was great - part of a cozy cove but on the edge of the other homes so there was plenty of privacy. The sunset from the porch area was breath taking. The house was well equipped with everything we needed for family meals and was spotless throughout. The beach was a bit rocky going in (so bring water shoes) but it was a long sandy area after the shore line that our kids (ages 6, 4, and 2) thoroughly enjoyed. The grown ups enjoyed the kayaks and paddle board too. Overall a great value and great stay!

Our stay was great. We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and my 70th birthday while we were in Door County. We honeymooned in Door County and we wanted to take our kids and grandchildren here to show them how great Door County is. The cabin was great and clean inside. The outside could have been taken care of better. It was difficult getting the paddle boat and kayak s down to the water where there wasn’t so many rocks. We managed but the shoreline could have been neater. The view from the cabin was spectacular, and the sunset was amazing. The description was a bit misleading on the beach area. Overall our stay was great. I think some improvements to the shoreline and and better launching area for the paddle boat and kayaks would be a better selling point for this cabin. Appearance is everything.

We had a good stay while attending our daughter's wedding in Sturgeon Bay. Although there was more rain than we expected for August, the thunderstorms were spectacular to watch over the water and Scott was great about checking on us after the power outage.

Property was the perfect getaway! Loved being right on the water. Fun water toys and lawn games. House was comfortable with beautiful views from kitchen and table. It was also well stocked with most of the necessities! Scott was very responsive to any questions about property and general area (our first time in Door County). Would definitely recommend!

House was clean and beautifully set up for a group. Plenty of room in the kitchen for prep and easy eating space at the island and the dining table. The outdoor space was what made this house so special- right on the water with a fire pit, plenty of furniture and yard games galore. Location was perfect- close to Sturgeon Bay but on a quiet secluded street with little traffic. Would highly recommend for future visits.

We enjoyed a great weekend for our family get-together. The main reason for our visit to Door County was for some people in our group to go to the Packers Game but we also wanted to be somewhere to enjoy the scenery. We were very comfortable in the house and it worked well for the two kids/babies as well, being all on one level. We took a few trips into Sturgeon Bay to enjoy the breweries, restaurants, and shops. Even in winter, there was a lot open.

Not fancy but nice. Lovely views. Would be ideal with children in summer as beach is right there. Could use better quality pillows etc. Only real negative is distance from most attractions and restaurants further up in peninsula. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great property. Great communication with owner. The four bedrooms and two bathrooms were a bonus and worked really well for our group. One bedroom's mattress was not good, but other than that, the place was very comfortable and had room to spread out. If you want to go beyond Sturgeon Bay, quite a bit of driving is required back and forth to the other communities, but we made it work. And it was a great place to come back to at the end of the day.

I've stayed at a few places in Door County and Scott's property by far has the best outdoor space & view. The backyard has a couple of different seating areas, a yard with grass (great for the dogs, with a dog run too!), a fire pit area, BBQ area- all over looking peaceful Sand Bay. There are no neighbors on one side so it felt really private. We spent almost all of our time outside watching the beautiful sunsets, building fires and grilling. Inside, I loved how the kitchen & living room were set up- big windows overlooking the lake, and a huge sectional couch in the living room meant that we could all comfortably fit to watch movies. The place was super clean and well stocked- extra towels in the cupboards and a good assortment of pots, pans and cooking utensils. It was also really accessible- my mom has a wheelchair and walker and she was able to fit down hallways and through doorways with no problem. There are 3 small steps off the back porch landing to get down to the yard- but luckily there are railings! A really thoughtful & helpful addition and my mom used those to get down no problem. Our family really loved Peaceful Shores property and we hope to come back in the future!

Everything about this rental was outstanding. Scott was super communicative and welcome to feedback. The property was well maintained and stocked with everything we needed. It was my first lake house experience with family who've done the lake house before but this even better than their other experiences! The private shoreline and lake view was wonderful to wake up to everyday. The fire pit, kayaks, paddle boat were perfect for a variety of ages. And the location couldn't have been better! On a dead end street away from everything but not too far from town! Would highly recommend and who knows, maybe even book again! Thanks again to Scott and his family for sharing this wonderful home

My family and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend. The owner is great to work with and responses quickly. The home was very clean and well stocked. What a beautiful view. We will come again!!! thank you.

This property was exactly as described. Plenty of room for 6 adults. We played indoor/outdoor games. Sat quietly and watched the waves crash over the rocks while enjoying the sunset. I definitely recommend bringing water shoes, rocks were very slippery so a little challenge getting equipment to water but still able to enjoy the paddle board and kayaks. Scott was quick to respond to any and all questions! A memorable trip for all.

Stayed at this property in July and the water was warm enough to enjoy. The home was very clean and kitchen well stocked with dishes, comfortable beds. There are neighbors on only one side of the property so very quiet and peaceful. Owners were very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely recommend this property.

Wonderful, peaceful spot!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Peaceful Shores. The location on the bay was perfect for hanging out by the lake, watching the sunsets, and having a bonfire. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed and Scott was great to work with. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

It's so peaceful here!
That is what my husband kept saying during our stay, had to remind him maybe that was why the name Peaceful Shores?!?! 😂
This lake house and Scott are absolutely fantastic. We stayed for a week and took advantage of everything. Peddle boat, kayaks, grill, fire pit, garage with fabulous games! Completely ready for everyone to enjoy. (Even a dog run in back and another tether in front. They even considered the dogs!)
I will need to go back to attempt paddle boarding. The water was still a bit cool and I was not ready to fall in! 😄
We had 5 adults and one dog and would have been just as comfortable with twice the amount. Checking in and out couldn't have been easier.
Great bike riding and state park is gorgeous.
ONLY thing missing is a sandy beachfront, but get those water shoes on and walk 2 feet in to hit sandy bottom and beautifully clear lake!
This location is so wonderful I would even enjoy staying in fall or winter. Definitely not just a summer place.
Only part I didn't like was leaving! We already miss you Peaceful Shores!!

Views are worth it
Scott was amazing to work with. Promptly answered any questions and the property was overall perfect. Open concept for our larger group and the outdoors OH that view, breathtaking…I could have stayed right in the lawn chair the whole time. Beds were comfortable, kitchen stocked with all we needed to make meals and great location to explore door county. Place wasn’t “high end” but still absolutely perfect. Would CERTAINLY stay again

Beautiful views
We absolutely loved this property. The views off the back of the water were spectacular. It was a bit chilly to do any water sports, but the location is perfect for those who like to swim, kayak, paddle board, skip stones and be around the water. Even our 20 yr old was pushing us to sit outside and watch the sunsets (over playing on his phone). The street was very quiet and nice for leisurely walks with the dog. There were several things to do that were within an hour drive. It never felt like an hour drive because there was so much to look at. The house is completely set up for every day living if you prefer to stay in and cook over going out. Plenty of fire wood. Clean , comfortable and as pictured. We would love to come up again.
