They also have a number of separate cabins for rental. They have cute sheep in a pasture in back and a big pond nearby that is full of frogs who sing at night. They have fresh baked cookies down in the sitting area and bring you a nice breakfast to your room every morning. There's a swimming pool too Did I say how much I loved staying here? It's been a few years, but they're still there!

This is a little-known property in Door County, WI. The property includes 3 rental options. I will…read morebriefly touch on each of the 3 options. This review is primarily for the smallest cottage, the Firefly, built in 1948 by the owner's father and grandfather which my husband and I have stayed twice (2011, 2012). For those of you who haven't visited Door County, it is the "thumb" that juts out from the mitten-shaped state of Wisconsin. A peninsula, it's chock-full of nostalgia and quintessential locales that are down right Norman Rockwell. The Firefly cottages are situated just outside the largest city in Door County, Sturgeon Bay, WI. The property is on a very private lot with beach-side cottages in a quaint spot just north of one of the most picturesque lighthouses on the peninsula. It faces the lake side of Lake Michigan so the water is colder than the bay side and referred to as "the quiet side" of the peninsula. While it is perfect for a quiet getaway, it is not directly within walking or biking distance of shops or restaurants, unless you're an avid cyclist. We have stayed at this property 2 years in a row now, both times around the 4th of July. As I mentioned, this property includes three different rental options, so you will have other renters with you on the property however it still remains very private. The newest and most modern construction rental option and also the largest is called the hideaway (https://sites.google.com/site/fireflycottages3/the-hideaway-cottage). It sits the furthest back from the shore behind the firefly cottage and has more modern amenities. I have not stayed in this particular unit. It sits behind the firefly so may have more obstructed views of the lake but is bigger, more modern, and has a cool fire pit in the yard. The larger of the cabins, the Viking (https://sites.google.com/site/fireflycottages3/the-viking), is a quintessential summer family getaway. There is a big, open great room that includes living room, dining room, kitchen. It's very well maintained by its loving owner. The house also includes a bedroom and a lofted sleeping area with two double-beds. There is also a full bath with tub so it's great for families at all stages and of all sizes. I would recommend trying to rent the Viking if you have more than 2 adults or more than 3 people. The smallest of the cottages, the Firefly is just perfect for a small family, romantic getaway for a couple, or individual reflection retreat. We have had the most lovely time both times we have stayed here. There is literally no (AT&T) cell phone service so be prepared to be totally unplugged. Took me a day or two to get used to this and I totally recommend doing it. Hey, you only get away once or twice a year. The emails can wait. And if you really need access, you can go into "town." The Firefly cottage is basically a one-room cottage with a little porch on the front (see my pics!). There is a little kitchen that we found to have everything we needed. There is a queen size bed in the main room, and a small, non-working fireplace makes the place feel even more quaint. The front porch has a couch that pulls out into a bed. We brought along an extra camping mattress and put it on top of the pullout mattress the year the boys came along with us and they seemed to sleep very comfortable - and they are big teenage boys! The beach: sandy and beautiful. We spent many days just sunbathing or playing bocce ball along the beach. It is stunning! The only downside we found is that every few years the ale wife (minnow) die off. This results in a beach littered with dead fish (yuck). We still had a great time and just had to do a little tidying of the beach. There's no way to tell when this death of thousands of fish will occur so there's no point in trying to worry about it when you make your plans. The locals don't give it much of a thought. If you are a dog lover, this is a perfect spot for you. Irene allows pets and our dog had a stellar time chasing seagulls and snapdragons the entire weekend. Love. The Firefly is more suited for an individual or romantic retreat for a couple than for a family of 4 but could work for a small family if the children are small. The shower is small so swim and enjoy!!! (drafted July 2012)

So much outdoor space with places to sit and hangout. The tiki bar out front has a water view and they had a DJ one of the nights we were there! So fun to be able to walk a few steps outside and have an enjoyable outdoor experience. We didn't eat at the restaurant here because we had other plans but also a huge convenience. The pool wasn't functioning while we were there- this didn't impact our experience but something to note. We had an issue in one of our rooms with the air conditioning. It was not working. When we called Milan, the staff member who was super helpful our whole stay, came right away to apologize and try to fix it. Ultimately, the air was broken and unable to be fixed right away. We were refunded money and Milan made sure we were set with what we needed to be comfortable enough. We were fine with this. Even after the refund, Milan called us later that night to say that a room had opened up (they were fully booked this whole weekend so moving rooms was not an option initially) to tell us that there was a last minute cancellation. We found this extremely kind that he continued to try to make this inconvenience right even after the refund. Even though we had this inconvenience, the effort put in to fix it leads me to still rate it 5 stars. Milan was a huge part of making our stay enjoyable. He was extremely kind and provided great customer service. All in all, we would come back. The location is great. You are near water, downtown, bars, restaurants, wineries, beaches and hiking/walking trails. The grounds were wonderful. We had a great trip!

I have never been in a BNB where the cable channels were free! There was a journal book in the room for guests and people wrote in it about their experiences at the BNB and a few of the stories brought tears! It was just so cool to know that I was in a place where I felt like I was valued as more than just a guest! I WILL be back! You cannot go wrong booking this place, it's absolutely EPIC.

He and I have been living in Green Bay for almost four years and have unfortunately, never had the chance to visit Door County. So, we thought this would be the perfect opportunity. We actually ended up getting engaged during our second day there so it now has an absolute special place in our heart. We were greeted upon arrival by one of the owners with hot coffee. She was very welcoming and took us to our room, Quite Rose, and showed us a short tour of the room. She asked if we came for any special reason and we told her we were just looking to relax, go whine tasting, and out to a nice dinner. She immediately had suggestions for both and even let us borrow menus for the restaurants for the next few days which was extremely helpful. She let us know we could call her at anytime for anything, but was happy to let us be with our key. And the next day, their were freshly baked muffins in the "lobby" along with the coffee - awesome surprise. We absolutely loved the room! The bed was one of the most comfortable things I have ever had the honor to sleep on, the whirl tub was big enough to fit two, and the fire place was an amazing touch (although it kept the room very warm, but that isn't a problem since we can control the thermostat and with an open window, its no problem). And the food, the food! Breakfast both days was out of this world. We were able to request what time we wanted it delivered and one of the owners simply knocked on the door to say good morning and left so we were able to get it when ready. They also asked if we had any preferences for food or food allergies, but we had none. About an hour before it would be delivered, we could smell the most amazing smell wafting up to our room of fresh baked breakfast. The first breakfast was blueberry pancakes, bacon, and fruit with coffee and the next breakfast was scrambled eggs, cubed potatoes, sausage, English muffin, and blood oranges. So versatile, but both equally delicious. Left us feeling very full, but not heavy. They even noticed my fiance uses quite a bit of creamer in his coffee so they gave us more the next day. Definitely gourmet breakfast!!! The details were impeccable, the room and house were very cozy, and the owners were incredibly hospitable and welcoming. Will most definitely be back.

We should have suspected that the room had not been cleaned as the host inspected and tidied up the bathroom upon entering our room. She "didn't expect anyone would be staying in the room that night", though we made the reservation at 10am that morning. The second clue that our room was not clean was the modest turd in the unflushed toilet. I'm sure the breakfast was delicious, but we didn't stay to eat. My recommendation is to book north of Sturgeon Bay nearer to Egg Harbor. This place is WAY overpriced.
