About this property

Enjoy one of the most beautiful views in all of Door County from The Chalet, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath pet friendly vacation home on Garrett Bay. The home has a large waterfront deck, private dock during the summer season, and a beach fire pit. There is a 10 person hot tub for warming up after your swim. Inside enjoy a large stone fire place, well-equipped kitchen with water views and three comfortable bedrooms. The Chalet is a perfect retreat with privacy. If you like to swim, kayak (two kayaks available), fish, boat, or just sit and enjoy nature this is the house for you. It is convenient to Ellison Bay and Gills Rock for restaurants, coffee, drinks, groceries, boat docks and much more. There is lots of green space between your home and the other home on the property (the fleetwing). There is one shared deck between both houses but each house has its own outdoor waterfront area and dock. It is Kid friendly, pet friendly, outdoor enthusiast friendly and the perfect quiet escape. It also offers superfast internet if you need to work during your stay.

Door County in the fall....

The property is located right on Lake/Bay. It is a beautiful location. The property is tired. The beds were really great for sleeping. The views from inside the house on the lake side were wonderful. It was a dreary time that we were there but it allowed us time to explore the parks and Washington Island. Wickman House was exceptional!

Beautiful location

The Chalet is located in wooded area on Garrett's Bay. It was quiet and peaceful. The Chalet is very well maintained, nicely decorated, with all the amenities you'd want in a lakefront cabin. The hot tub was an extra treat. There are a handful of restaurants, I highly recommend Blue Bear for breakfast, and drinking establishments, Cider House was great, the location does require some driving to points of intrest, though nothing is more than 30 minutes away. I highly recommend The Chalet for anyone looking for a quiet family retreat. I'm hoping to plan another stay next year with my sons family.

About the host

Hosted by Jen Hanrahan

My family and I grew up spending summers in the Chalet. It is a second home to us. We love sharing the beautiful waterfront, amazing views, clear (cold) lake, the comfortable home and so much more with those new to Door County or those that have been coming for years...this is about as good as it gets!

Why they chose this property

The Chalet is perfectly located on a residential bay but close enough to the best that Door County has to offer. It offers the perfect mix of quiet nature, beautiful views with activities within very short dirves. Sister Bay, Ellison Bay and Gills rock (with ferries to Washington island) are the closest towns with so much to offer.

What makes this property unique

The shoreline and views, the nature and biking/hiking/kayaking/fishing/boating swimming opportunies right out your front door are unbeatable but for the neighboring home (The Fleetwing) the Garret Bay Rest or the 1230 on Garrett Bay (both a short walk down the bay. All of these homes are part of our family, come with great waterfront and private piers and we love to share with others. Garrett Bay and its views is the best of Northern Door
