Spacious cottage; excellent location in heart of Fish Creek & super view of Bay
About this house rental
Nestled in Fish Creek, this lovely house for $298 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. . A good example of a traditional Door County cottage, perfectly located across from the Fish Creek bathing beach with a wonderful view of the boats at anchor and the islands of Green Bay. This spacious house can comfortably sleep ten, so it is perfect for groups and large families. The great room is light and airy and opens onto a front porch big enough for all. Though you will find it hard to leave the porch with its wonderful view, you'll want to explore some of the peninsula's best restaurants and shops, only a short walk down the street, in the heart of the village. Go a half mile in the other direction and you'll be at the main entrance to Peninsula State Park featuring a variety of hiking trails, a bathing beach with boat rentals, seven miles of bike trails, bike rentals, an 18 hole golf course with views over Eagle Harbor, as well as miles of peaceful forest lanes perfect for viewing wildlife and spectacular vistas from the limestone cliffs. The bedrooms have hardwood floors and a closet and are plainly furnished in cottage style. All are light and airy: four are fairly large - none is small and two have water views. The upstairs bath features a tub and the downstairs bath a modern shower stall. A wonderful home to make long-lasting memories! ** 1. Sorry, but we do not allow pets. 2. Guests must bring their sheets and towels 3. We don’t have air conditioning but plenty of fans including a whole-house ceiling fan in the upstairs hall Keywords: cottage, beach, large, Fish Creek

We had 3 successive groups of people, so 4 - 10 in the house at various times. Great location. Although the house is old and shabby, it is very comfortable. Exactly as advertised.

First time visitor to Door County. Property is located a very short walk to Peninsula State Park, which contains many beautiful hiking and biking trails. The enclosed porch overlooks a stunning view of water, boats, sunrises, sunsets! No airconditioning but the house stayed very cool amidst warm temps.

We had an awesome time in Door County. This property has an excellent location in Fish Creek. We could walk to go out to eat or go shopping. It had the feel of staying at Grandma's house. We loved it. Beds were very comfortable. We had a wonderful time. Thank you.

I felt like I was staying in a garage sale. Furnishing were just junky, broken and dirty. I can’t believe that four appliances were plugged into one kitchen recepticle. Same in living room. Constantly afraid of overload.

Classic Home in Artsy Area
We had a wonderful stay at Louisvilla! It is a gorgeous, classic home in a prime location. There was ample room, games for the kids and the house reflected the genre it was from. Really loved the trim work! My only recommendations would be 1) to warn renters there are mostly 2-prong outlets in the house. If they need a 3 prong plug they need to bring an adapter. 2) Lugging sheets for all the beds was a bit cumbersome, but that is just because we planned to hit the beaches too. Loved the drying line out back. 3) Thank you for the glassware and plates but it all needed to be washed before use. Not sure if that was previous renters or cleaning crew. But, that said, Door County is a beautiful area and I would highly recommend staying here!!

Best Location!
We loved our stay. It was spacious, yard was great, loved the front porch and view. Couple of suggestions: I think there should be a disclaimer for people traveling with young children that the potential of lead based paint in the home is very high throughout with chipping/peeling inside and out. I think maybe consider a linen exchange with the cleaning crew as providing for 8 beds was a little cumbersome. We had a great time!

great location and porch!
this worked well for our moms weekend away but it was not really clean. you might want to look into changing your cleaning people. also a large skillet would be good for group eggs in the morning!

Great location but needs a good cleaning.
Great view & location but the cleanliness of the house poor. The floor was dirty in all rooms with food scraps & dirt. The bathrooms need a real good cleaning ceiling to floor.

beautiful old place in an awesome location
very spacious and nice place to stay. we had 5 adults and an almost 1year old. the bedrooms were roomy with beautiful views. the porch was perfect to play cards on during the baby's nap times. the home is in a great location - within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. providing our own linens (bedding and towels- bath and kitchen) made packing pretty bulky with packing the kid's extra needs (pack n play, toys, and stroller). Since there isn't a dishwasher and dishes are washed by hand, it was very helpful we had a bottle drying rack - I would recommend packing extra towels/drying mat/rack if you plan to have dishes. home doesn't have many outlets where we needed them, so packing a few short extension cords really helped. the beds and couches are very soft but did their jobs. we absolutely loved staying here and plan to stay here again in the future! I would recommend this place to others!!

The perfect vacation home for 8 sisters.
This was the perfect vacation home for 8 sisters traveling to Door County. It was right on the main road in Fish Creek and within walking distance to anything we needed. With a coffee shop next door, fantastic restaurants and shopping just down the street in one direction, Peninsula State Park just a short drive in the other direction, and the beach right across the street, we couldn't have chosen a better location. The home itself was great. The front porch was perfect for relaxing, reading, napping, and enjoying that early morning cup of coffee. The bedrooms were all very spacious and bright, especially those with views of the beach. It got a little warm in Wisconsin the first night, but the attic fan upstairs kept the rooms cool and comfortable. The beds were all very comfortable. On the first floor the living area was large, open and spacious, with plenty of room for a large gathering to enjoy time together.
The owner was pleasant and easy to work with. She even emailed me ahead of time with ideas for day trips to the lighthouses, wineries and sailing (all of which we took advantage of).
The only drawback was lack of electric outlets in the bathrooms (We knew ahead of time that with 8 girls, two bathroom and only one shower we would need to bring extra extension cords to do hair and makeup in our bedrooms), and the fact that we "blew a fuse" when more than two people used a blow dryer at the same time. Both things were easily remedied, but it's something that's nice to know ahead of time.
The photos posted on the VBRO/Home Away website of this home are just what you will see when you arrive. The home was clean and the lawn mowed.
Highlights of the trip were the lighthouses in Peninsula State Park and on Cana Island, an early morning sail on the Edith M. Becker schooner out of Sister Bay, and the Peninsula Players Theater right in Fish Creek. We loved the outside fire pit and sunset over Green Bay and laughed our heads off watching Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps".
I would recommend this home, Fish Creek and Door County Wisconsin in general to anyone seeking a vacation that can be both relaxing and exciting.

Perfect location
House is old (1905) but clean. The screened in front porch was great for relaxing, looking at the water. It is located right near the heart of Fish Creek in easy walking distance of some good restaurants and bars. Bring your own sheets and linens. Couch and love seat in main room could use upgrade. Owner was very responsive to e-mail questions. While there is a whole house fan, very hot weather may be a problem. If you're looking for a modern air-conditioned condo, this is not the place for you. It is rustic, but relaxing.

PERFECT LOCATION
We enjoyed our stay at the Louisvilla. The location was perfect, right in the heart of everything. The property is a big old house with ample space for the 10 of us. It is a bit run down, and could use some updating. If you are looking for a no frills place to stay that is close to everything, it's great!

Louisvilla in Fish Creek, WI
We loved the location of this property, right across from the beach and in the heart of the village. Plenty of things to do within walking distance. The house was pretty well equipped. The only real downfall were the cooking supplies such as pots and pans. The pans were a bit rusty but we lined everything with aluminum foil and it helped. Other than that, the house had great TV, plenty of games and reading material. We would definitely rent this property again. Thank you to Karen for the thorough instructions and contact numbers.

Wonderful Fall Weekend Stay
We rented this house from Sept 25-28 for a long weekend getaway and had an absolute amazing time! The location is absolutely perfect, you can't ask for more - directly across from the beach, what a gorgeous view! And we were able to walk to all of our favorite shops and restaurants, which for us is a must-have when staying in Fish Creek. We had four adults and four kids age 2-6 and it worked out perfectly having 6 bedrooms. It definitely has the "cottage" old and rustic feel, if you want a new and updated house this is not the one for you. But if you want lots of charm and perfect location don't hesitate to rent it! We would love to stay here again. The only cons I can think of are only having 1 shower for 8 people, and having to bring our own sheets and towels. I actually enjoyed Sleeping with my own bedding but it just made for a lot to pack. However the price is so reasonable and location so awesome bringing these things wasn't a huge deal. We loved being right across the street from the beach/playground for the kids, and being able to come and go so easily. One last perk is having the adorable blue horse cafe right next door for coffee and breakfast. Would recommend this house to anyone!
