The house was clean and home-y. We enjoyed the seclusion and even saw deer in the backyard. The location was the perfect jumping-off-point for us to explore Washington Island and Rock Island.

Really enjoyed staying at this home, nice deck. The only coffee maker was a K-cup machine so we bought a drip coffee maker at the Sister bay Ace HW store. Quiet location, almost no traffic on the drive in road, convenient to Sister Bay. Wildlife we saw in the yard, a flock of wild turkeys and a doe with her newborn fawn. Would definitely stay here again.
