Sister Bay Vintage Log Cabin - Recent Remodel

We invite you to stay in our lovingly restored vintage Door County cottage. Historic, fresh and charming describes this log cabin built by a Norwegian immigrant in 1938.

This home is ideally located along the desirable Bay Shore Drive in Sister Bay! A short 5 minute walk into town allows you to take advantage of the park, marina, beach, boutiques, restaurants, ice cream / coffee shops and more, then retreat to the private quiet cabin to sit, relax and unwind. Additionally, we are centrally located in the county making visits to Gills Rock, Ellison Bay, Fish Creek, Ephraim, Egg Harbor and Bailey's Harbor all within a short drive (5-20 min).

This lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath, full kitchen, cottage provides everything you'll need for a pleasant and relaxing stay. First floor: bedroom, open family / dining room, bathroom and kitchen. Upstairs: spacious bunkroom.

A large wrap around deck and front yard is a relaxing place to gather with family and friends...enjoy your morning coffee watching the people of Sister Bay pass by, grill / dine on the back deck, sip an evening cocktail watching the sun set over the bay, then end your day with a bonfire, smores and a little star gazing.

We host guests year round and ensure your comfort with a whole house furnace and central air conditioning. Please come soak up all four seasons in Sister Bay. We hope to see you soon.

Note: For safety and security purposes, one outdoor camera is located on the property. It is mounted and clearly visible on the rear exterior of the cabin. It monitors activity in the parking area.

* We are PET FRIENDLY for dogs with a reservation.
* Max Occupancy is 5 people / 2 cars per our permit with the village of Sister Bay.
* We extend a warm welcome to all guests in our home. Please do not attempt to violate the basic house rules related to: occupancy, pets, smoking or parties etc. and put us all in an uncomfortable position.

*** We are pleased to announce the opening of our 2024 new construction in Baileys Harbor. We invite you to consider The Red Cherry Woods Cottage VRBO #3485771. A beautiful new property and location providing the same warm hospitality and flawless experience.

Our recent stay in Sister Bay, Wi.

This is an absolutely beautiful cabin that we stayed in for the week. Very clean and welcoming inside and out. All of the little extras were available in case you forgot something. Very comfortable sleeping accommodations as well as sitting/relaxing with the indoor furnishings. We loved the wrap around deck, as we spent some late nights out there. The front porch was perfect to catch the sunsets between the trees. Michelle was great to work with and always kept in contact. We enjoyed our stay very much!

Darling Property -- Fantastic Location!

This is a darling, historic cottage within walking distance of downtown Sister Bay. There is also a bit of a view of Lake Michigan from the front firepit area and we enjoyed watching the sunset each night! The property owner has thought of everything to ensure one's full comfort and it was spotlessly clean. We mentioned we were traveling to S.B. to celebrate a couple of birthdays and she left us a balloon, card and a cake; it was extremely thoughtful and was such a fun surprise. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Week in Door County

The accommodations were perfect -charming cabin in a perfect location, walking distance to many shops, restaurants and activities in the heart of Sister Bay. Our hosts were wonderful, gave us all the info we needed about our accommodations and things to do in Door County (and even a very thoughtful welcome basket). All of this added to our wonderful week in lovely Door County.

Adorable cabin!! Michelle has thought of everything and has created a beautiful, welcoming home away from home. Our family of 5 (kids 18, 21, 23) loved the walk to town location, fire pit and games/puzzles. We look forward to staying here again in the future:)

Perfect if you want to be close to everything.

The house is adorable. Beware wearing socks only on the stairs. My husband booked for us. If you want to be super close to everything this is the place to stay. I would have preferred a more secluded place to stay. House is clean and comfortable.
