Cozy cottage tucked in the woods. 5 minutes from Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes.

Cute & cozy bungalow tucked in the woods on a quiet road just outside Jacksonport, Wisconsin, lies this cozy cottage. With only a quick 5-minute drive to a sandy public beach on Lake Michigan, you don’t have to go far to explore the beauty of the great lakes. We greatly encourage you to explore the backroads on two bikes we’ve provided and immerse yourself in Wisconsin. This homey bungalow is great for a family or a couples getaway!

The Space-
Our cottage is a mix of modern and vintage. Just recently renovated and updated, we keep this home cozy and comfortable without losing a cabin-esque charm everyone loves.
Have your morning cup of coffee on our amazing front porch while enjoying the sound of waves crashing against the bluff in the distance. Take a walk into our beautifully landscaped backyard with paths leading to a firepit fit for roasting marshmallows. Grill out on the back deck, all while taking in the scenery. Don’t forget to glance up at the night skies; we promise they are show-stoppers. A perk of being on the quiet side of Door County.

This relaxed cottage allows you to escape the busy towns' hustle and bustle while remaining close to some of the best parks and beaches. Some of our local favorites within a 3-mile radius include Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes, which you can’t miss. Cave Point is one of the most beautiful parks around, and Whitefish dunes boast hundreds of feet of sandy beach and miles of trails for hiking and cross-country skiing.
With only 1 mile to Jacksonport Beach and Lakeside park, you’re right by all the necessities Jacksonport offers. Grab goodies from the local bakery, eat and drink at two great restaurants, rent kayaks or bicycles from either of the local tour companies and grab some meats for grilling from a quaint grocery store.

Sleep-
Bedroom one includes a queen bed, dresser, closet, full-length mirror, USB charging ports, and custom-designed accent wall. Located on the front side of the house, open the windows and enjoy the waves crashing as you drift off to sleep.
Bedroom two includes a queen bed with a full bed bunk over the top. Located on the backside of the house, this room has a full-length mirror, plenty of storage, and tons of peace and quiet.

Very nice place
This was a nice place in a quiet neighborhood. Loved the decor, wished there were more board games for families. Fire pit was fun, could use better seating. There was a smell of mildew or mold when we arrived but contacted the owner and they responded quickly stating we could open windows and run AC to help. They were addressing the smell after our stay. Very responsive owners.

Accurately listed, nice extra touches
Overall a good experience, it was cute, homey and comfortable, in a nice quiet wooded area. I would say this listing is exactly as described. When we arrived it was a hot day and the AC was not running. Turns out it was the breaker that was somehow tripped before our arrival. Owner quickly replied with suggestions but we ended up figuring it out ourselves. There was a damp sour smell when we arrived that I believe was due to the lack of AC because it got better after a couple days. There are a few recommendations I would make. I would have felt more comfortable with more window treatments. The place was clean except for the patio door track has been neglected if a wipe down for a while. One day we decided to sleep in, well, we thought we were going to sleep in, but alas, the yard got mowed. Would have been nice to have timed that out better. Also highly recommend pest control. There were many carpenter ants as well as a few smaller ants and a few earwigs. I would be concerned with the damage the carpenter ants may be doing. Oh, one final thing, we put the puzzle together and it is missing a piece so don’t spend any time looking for the word boil in fish boil, it is not there lol. Loved the books and the area guidebook and suggestions and the map art in the kitchen!

Cozy Cottage near Cave Point and Jacksonport
The cottage was very spacious for the two of us, comfortable, safe, quiet, everything we wanted. We ate lots of meals at the cottage and were pleased with the room to cook, dine, all the utensils we needed, good grill and picnic table on backyard patio. Any and all questions were answered promptly and clearly with offers for phone discussion if needed. Check in and check out was smooth. Secure entry was easy to figure out and no problem. Clean, cool temp inside despite the heat outdoors. Convenient location for our plans and destinations each day. Highly recommend staying here.

This is a lovely, clean, comfortable, well appointed cottage in a great location to see all the sites in Door County. Very quiet area, owners are super responsive.

Perfect Quiet Getaway with Responsive Hosts
We had a wonderful stay at the Good Folk House and will definitely be back! The hosts were amazing to work with, quick to answer any questions and even provided fun things to do in the area. Not only was the house extremely clean and as described, it was decorated so cute and had all of the amenities you could want. Nice quiet neighborhood, yet very close to all Door County must see spots. The backyard space is a hidden gem! Thoughtful touches throughout the house. Looking forward to our next stay!
