Unique Setting - Built on Quarry Bed

This property is know as our Carriage House.
We also have a one bedroom unit available, known as Quarry House Guest Bedroom. This guest bedroom is located across a 6 foot outdoor hall from the Carriage House. The combined units can accommodate 9 persons. See listing #1328037

We are located 1.5 miles from down town Fish Creek on Spring Road. We have a large area to park a boat or extra car.

We have been featured in Door County Living magazine and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. We have a unique quiet setting, yet near to all Door County has to offer.

The Carriage House is an 1100 square foot luxury accommodation in a second floor setting with it's own private entrance. The main house is owner occupied. The Carriage House (rental area) has a master bedroom suite with a beautiful wake up view of the woods. There is a great room with a queen murphy bed and two overstuffed comfortable chairs. We can set up a twin roll-a-way to sleep a 5th person. A second bedroom is available at an additional cost across the hall and sleeps 4 persons. It has a private entrance and private bath. See VRBO #1328037.

Easy to relax! There is a full kitchen with an island to enjoy your home cooked meal. The oversized bathroom has a walk-in shower and jet bathtub.

We are also pet friendly. A dog must be totally housebroken and well taken care of. There is an extra charge for a dog, so be sure to state the number of persons and the number of pets.

We are actually built in a quarry. This is the 16th season of rental. We sincerely hope to make you stay with us memorable.

Beautiful property, great location!
The owners Mitch and Mary were great! The property was beautiful, and it was centrally located making it easy to get to egg harbor, fish creek, and Baileys harbor. We enjoyed the collection of VHS tapes, and even watched a movie one evening. Great property for a weekend away with your spouse!

Wonderful Door County getaway and unique property!
We had a wonderful stay at the Quarry House. Mitch and Mary were by far the most welcoming hosts we’ve ever stayed with! Mary greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the space to make sure we settled in quickly. We felt right at home! It’s a great property and great location. We can’t wait to stay again!

Absolutely Fabulous
Mitch and Mary are terrific hosts, and very welcoming. Door County is always a great getaway, but they made our stay even better. The property is breathtaking, the loft we stayed in was very clean, organized and easy to access. I would highly recommend this stay when going to Door County, and we will definitely be back. Thank you!!

Amazing stay!
My high school friends and I did our first vacation together after our freshman year of college to reconnect and catch up. We had an AMAZING experience! Mitch and Mary were beyond welcoming. They were excited to show us around the rental and opened their beautiful property up to us. The history of the property is so fascinating and we highly recommend asking Mitch for a tour of his art gallery! The location was perfect! We were 15-20 minutes from all the best spots in Door County. HIGHLY recommend booking this rental! I know I will be again:)

This property and our suite are lovely with fully equipped kitchen. This was so much nicer than staying at a hotel while we did local sight seeing and activities. Dog friendly property and walking areas. Limited cable and wireless was not a problem for us because we were so active in the area hiking, music, food, fishing and art classes. Great stay.

The apartment that we rented is on the second floor of an art studio. The grounds are beautiful and the host gave us a tour of the uniquely designed studio/home. The apartment was clean and quiet and centrally located being only 2 miles from downtown Fish Creek. I highly recommend this rental!

Excellent Stay!
This was our first time in Door County and staying at the Quarry House. It was a great beginning to our trip, and Mary was there to greet us upon arrival. Riley greeted our Golden Retriever Cubby so playfully! The property was perfect for our party of four. Mary answered our questions about the area and the best places to eat, shop and stroll. Everything on the property exceeded our expectations, including the tour and stories behind the history of the home and property! We missed meeting Mitch as he was out of town that weekend, but we had such a great stay we will be back! Highly recommended vacation rental! Thank you for your hospitality, Mary!

Rock Solid Visit to The Granite House
Thank you Mitch and Mary for a wonderful stay in Fish Creek! We arrived shortly after our check in time and were greeted by Mitch, Mary and their wonderful dog, Riley. Riley, who is a German Shepard mix, may look intimidating, but when he met our little boy, Kirby, a 14 lb mini poodle, he rolled onto his back ready to play! The whole family was welcoming and engaging, throughout our entire visit. Some people don't like onsite hosts, but we found Mitch to be a wealth of information about the area and places to see. And the story of their building this masterpiece was amazing, which they enhanced with a tour of their personal quarters and his amazing art. The space we rented was huge. 1100 square feet met all our needs, from a luxurious and spacious custom bathroom to the restful main room, we felt at home and were able to make our own breakfast when we felt like it. We found it very easy to come and go, being centrally located on the island (YES, it IS an island), we ventured out every day in a different direction for a new and exciting adventure. A MUST SEE breakfast/brunch place is "THE BIG EASY." Most of the newbies will go to Al Johnson's for Swedish pancakes, but this place brings a taste of New Orleans to WI and they knock it out of the park. Thanks again to Mitch and Mary (& Riley) for a wonderful stay and we would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who wants to get off the beaten path and enjoy a quiet visit to this beautiful island.
