Lovely and very clean house fully stocked with linens, soap and kitchen items. The location in a wooded area was peaceful and beautiful. Perfect for people who want a quiet vacation, since it is a bit of a drive to the popular towns with shops and restaurants. My only concern was the lockbox for the housekey that was difficult to open. Other than that small detail, the property was wonderful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Blue House. It has been lovingly and beautifully decorated and made us feel totally at home. All our needs were provided for and the woodland setting was quiet and restful while be easily accessible to all that Door County has to offer. We heartily recommend this lovely vacation spot.
We've stayed in Door County a half dozen times or so over the years and this property was by far the most private. It's on a well wooded lot with mature trees and a 10 minute walk to the waterfront. At the water you have a great view of Gills Rock and the end of the Peninsula. You're only a ten minute drive from Sister Bay and five minutes from Elisson Bay. You can easily enjoy all the have to offer while feeling like you've gotten away into the woods. The residence has everything you would need for a stay. Whether you want to cook all your meals or eat out each night, you'll be set. Like all properties in the area they're on well water, so if you're city dwellers like us you'll probably want to bring plenty of bottled water. The owners were very accommodating and communicative.
My daughter in law and myself stayed 3 days and had a wonderful time. The home was comfortable in all aspects. The kitchen was large and well stocked and the beds were comfy.
This is the second time we have stayed at the Blue House. The house is very comfortable and we enjoyed the fireplace and cozy atmosphere on this cold weekend. There are good restaurants nearby, the dog enjoyed her walks, and we generally had a relaxing getaway.
This location was so great for kayaking and all the really gorgeous places in the upper part of the Door. The house was very clean with well-stocked linens and kitchen. We had one issue with the air conditioning--it was fine, just a circuit switch outside that we didn't know about--and the owner was super-prompt and helped us resolve it very quickly. One suggestion I might have for the owner is to consider using the office space for another small bedroom. We came up with our family of three, plus my child's friend, and it would have been great to be able to set up a cot or have a Murphy bed or something in the office so they didn't have to share sleeping space. Also, maybe one more chair in the living room would be great. We didn't really use the outdoor spaces because we were gone a lot, but they are great. We would definitely stay here again.
Our family visits Door County twice a year and this year we stayed at The Little Blue House in Ellison Bay. This house is perfect for a small family, with two spacious bedrooms and an office for work. The in unit washer & dryer was very convenient. The kitchen is enormous with all the cutlery, pots and pans needed to make a lazy morning perfect for breakfast at the house. The woods that hug the home slow you down and make you breath in much needed fresh air. We love Door County and loved our stay at The Little Blue House. We will absolutely stay there again.
Beautiful vacation at Blue House by the Bay! We brought our two dogs and had a great time! Well-equipped with all the essentials including a fire pit and board games for a rainy day. Peaceful area within walking distance of Garrett Bay and a short drive from local restaurants and shops. We will definitely come again!
