Overview

Welcome to your Door County retreat in Ellison Bay. This comfortable, family-friendly home sits on a spacious lot with a fire pit and screened porch—perfect for casual evenings outside. The skies here are impressively dark, so you can enjoy stargazing from the yard without making a special trip to Newport State Park (which is only minutes away).

Inside you’ll find a country kitchen with room for family meals, a large living room with big-screen TV and DVD, a loft for extra sleeping or hangout space, and reliable Starlink internet. The layout works well for families or several couples who want both shared space and privacy.

Location highlights: a short drive to Newport State Park and Europe Lake for outdoor exploring; about 10 minutes to Sister Bay’s shops and restaurants; quick access to Gills Rock/Northport and the ferry to Washington Island; and convenient boat access at the Ellison Bay dock. Don’t miss nearby Uncle Tom’s Fudge for classic Door County treats.

Whether you’re here for days on the water, walks through the park, or low-key nights by the fire, this home makes a relaxed, convenient base for your Door County getaway.

Reviews

  1. We enjoyed our summer vacation at this beautiful home which was very clean and well maintained. Made us feel at home with all the country home touches and memories of Herb. Loved our family game nights we had and spending time on the covered porch. Hope to return next year.

  3. Stayed a long weekend with a large group of friends and had a great time! Loved the location and privacy of this property. The screened in porch was perfect for hanging out and and the night sky views were amazing.

  4. Thanks for your great review, Anthony! Herb's Getaway is really a great house! We can't wait to see you again next year!

  5. We enjoyed our week long stay at this beautifully maintained house. It is only a few miles from any activities you want to do and the home is perfectly secluded away from the main road for peaceful nights! Cant wait to come back next year and make this a tradition for many years to come.
