Beautiful historic property in a great location. A couple of things kept me from giving 5 stars...we could not bolt the main door from the outside as the mechanism was loose and stayed that way our whole stay. The dishwasher did not work and neither did the direct TV remote in the living room. For the rental price I expect everything with the property to work.

13 of us including grands down to the littles spent 3 nights here to enjoy the fall colors of Door County. This location was great, far from the traffic on the east side but an easy short drive over to Sister Bay for their fall festival. The house is charming. Most were happy with their bedrooms, the group staying above the garage were not as pleased. The room was large but the bathroom was not as pleasing as the others. The great room in the main house is cozy, inviting & filled with original art & decorative pieces that make you feel instantly at home. Great Sonos sound system and plenty of toys for the 2 little ones. We hired a photographer for family photos and there were many scenic areas on the property for her snap away. The owners have a special place at Rocky Bottom Lodge. Located on a dead end street with plenty of space between neighbors. Prior instructions did not include a clear means to enter the cottage boat house. The management company was attentive and we had entry instructions after a couple phone calls.

The house was dirty with lots of cobwebs, filthy rugs and and old cereal under beds. Shower curtains disgusting. Shower drain clogged so shower water went above the ankles. A toilet was also clogged when we arrived, but we found a plunger. The living room sofa must have fallen off a garbage truck. Multiple light bulbs out and pitch black outside at night. House was overrun with flies. The sleeping rooms are in 3 different buildings. The beds old and tired. The mattress in the boathouse sofa bed too thin for the adults in our group. Towels threadbare and dirty. Only after you pay your non refundable deposit do they send an onerous lease with so many penalty provisions that you’ll spend your last day cleaning everything. There are very few fire alarms for a log house and at least one I tested didn’t appear to work. The dryer vent looks like a fire hazard and the balcony railing appears too short to provide safety in case you lose your balance. The location is nice and the house has a lot of potential but the maintenance and management needs work. The owner should have an inspector look at the place to make sure that it has no code issues. VRBO should also look into the practice of allowing undisclosed supplemental leases without recourse to get a refund after reviewing it.
