Family friendly cottage on the bay!

Spectacular Bay view cabin located on Rileys Point between Little Sturgeon bay and Rileys bay. Great getaway for the family with Sturgeon Bay, Potawatomi state park and Haines Beach minutes away.

Also great for a fisherman's getaway with excellent smallmouth bass, walleye, and perch throughout the Little Sturgeon, Riley and Sand Bays. Walk out of the cabin to your ice shanty in winter!

Cabin includes a spacious kitchen, large bay windows, firepit, and deck overlooking the water. Two bedrooms: one with a Queen size bed; the other with twin over full size bunk beds; pull out couch in the living room. Cabin is equipped with appliances, dishwasher, large 55" smart TV with DirecTV, Netflix and Hulu, Keurig coffee maker with pods, washer/dryer, air conditioning, microwave, gas grill, pizza oven and high speed wireless internet. Bed linens, blankets, pillows, bathroom towels, kitchen towels, paper toweling, and toilet paper will be provided. Boat launch located right down street. Wood for fire pit not included.

Great Early November Weekend on the Bay
This house is great; right on the water, quiet little peninsula puts you right out in and on the water. From morning bird watching, to the sunsets, to the stargazing. This is a great location!

Perfect Location by the Water
We came for a relaxing week in door county and found a perfect place for it. The house is well set up with all amenities, and a lovely view of the water and all its moods. 10 minutes away is Potawatomi State park, and 15 minutes away is Sturgeon bay. We were just relaxing, but this would be great for boating and fishing enthusiasts. Thanks for a great week.

It was a very nice home in a beautiful spot on the lake. Every thing you wanted to do was close by. It was everything you could want and had everything you could need to make this a great stay. I would recommend it to one and all. I will stay here next time I come and you should too. Really nice place in a beautiful spot.

Great place to stay
We loved it! We could've easily lived there. I loved sitting outside looking at the water. We also enjoyed the very sweet parade on the 4th. The owners are so easy to communicate with. We'll be back.

Great stay
My wife and I had great stay at Gregs place. Diffidently stay their again, great views of lake. We loved the sunset view. Place is big enough for a family too. The inside was very clean, outside could use some work. The lake is still very high a lot of areas still flooded. Thank you Greg for a great stay

Great cottage for our family with young kids. We spent new years weekend there. The full kitchen including dishwasher was awesome so we could hunker down and enjoy being away. WiFi worked great - we had access to all our streaming services. Grocery and dining near by but somewhat limited because of the season - no big deal though. We cooked at the cottage. The view of the bay was amazing. Greg is super nice and always available. We will be booking this property again.

Great location, Nice Property
We've been vacationing in Sturgeon Bay for many years. Sturgeon Bay is a nice location for day trips up the DC peninsula. And, this is a great place to stay! It's right on the water, and has a big yard. It has a great view of sunsets on Lake Michigan. We, and our puppies, played in the water on the rocky beach. The kitchen is well stocked. It has a big dining table for games and puzzles. The neighbors are warm and friendly. We loved it, and will be back.

Second verse, same as the first
Stayed here for the second year. Repeat of the year before. It's like coming home. Comfy couch. The heating did a great job of fighting the Wisconsin windchill. Quiet. Relaxing.
