Waterfront 1 bedroom and loft cottage with small private pier on Garrett Bay
Walk out your front door (or sit inside) and enjoy views of Garrett Bay. Death's Door Bluff is to your left and Washington Island to your right. Your own small pier is directly in front of your own private retreat. First floor one bedroom/one bathroom with steps to a loft that has another sleeping area. There is outdoor sitting and viewing space both by the house and down on the pier. Boat tie ups on the pier for docking your day fishing/recreational boat (no overnight docking available). The cottage has a well equipped kitchen (refridgerator, range, toaster oven, coffee maker, electric skillet and gas grilll) and all the amenities for a quick vacation away from life (towels, beach towels, beach chairs, linens, paper products and soaps/shampoo). Pelicans fly in over the bay, fishing off the dock is best on the bay for bass, views cannot be beat. Gills Rock and ferries to Washington Island and the Shoreline restaurant are a mile around the bluff. Ellison Bay with restaurants, coffee shops and a well-stocked "Pioneer Store" is a short two miles away. Come enjoy one of the most beautiful bays in Door County!
This was our 3rd time staying here and it was just as perfect as the first 2. Jen is a great host and the view is fantastic. We have booked 2 more stays.
Small but cozy cottage on a beautiful property on Garrett Bay near Gills Rock. Serene and quiet while we were there. Great access to the northern part of the peninsula.
This was our 2nd time staying here and it was a great experience again. Great cottage, great view and great host. We have booked 2 more trips here for this year. See you in July and October!!
The cottage was the perfect place for our little family. Spacious for us even with our dog. Love that it is pet friendly! It was cold and rainy, and they had the heated stove on for us prior to arrival. Very cozy! Will definitely remember this place for our next trip.
Such a wonderful find! Right on the water and quiet. Jenn was very accommodating and the cottage is creatively furnished to instill a feeling of a secluded oasis. Highly recommended!
Charming, private and quaint property nestled in the quiet Garrett Bay area. It felt like home the moment we walked in and booked two additional dates.
We absolutely loved our stay. Property was nicely maintained, the area was extremely dog friendly and it was so relaxing. Being right on the
Lake was perfection!
We enjoyed our stay! Great location and very pleasant renters. Close to plenty of activities and restaurants but away enough to enjoy the peace and quiet.
A totally charming cabin with a rare beach access with its own dock! It is a magical location, and the furnishings were eclectic and comfortable. The host lives nearby and was very friendly and responsive to any questions or concerns. It is the perfect combination of peaceful, out-of-the-way seclusion yet just minutes away from Sister Bay, the County's most cosmopolitan village.
My family of 3 (and our pup) had a wonderful time at this cottage. The access to the water and its location were awesome. Upon entering the cottage, the clean smell of bleach and disinfectant made me feel that great care was taken to make sure it was ready for us. Jen was a great host! I'd love to rent from her again in the future!
I've enjoyed Garrett Bay all my life (I grew up three houses down from the Garrett Bay Rest). Thankful to have this property in one of my favorite places on earth to share with my family and others. It is one of the most beautiful places I know.
