Leadership retreat
The property was beautiful and perfect for our leadership retreat. There were multiple spaces that we could do small breakout groups, the bonfire pit and fireplace were amazing gathering spaces. Overall, my team of 18 really enjoyed themselves! Also, plenty of space for everyone to have their own bed.

Batting 1000
The property was well laid out and designed. Billiards, ping pong and pickleball were all accessible and fun. The cabin was a bit dirty with stained carpet, high humidity, spider webs and old bedspreads and couch pillows. Two nights before we left, a bat was loose in the house! The owner was responsive and immediately sent out an inspector who was followed the next morning (after a sleepless night) by repairmen who sealed a crack between the brick masonry of the fireplace and the ceiling where the bats were able to get in. I would not rent this place again unless I was assured it was clean and updated.

Spacious and beautiful
The Log Retreat is spacious, inside and out, in a beautiful setting and great location. It accommodated our family well with a well equipped kitchen, very good beds and many onsite activities including pickleball, ping pong and a pool table. We were delighted with how it suited our family’s needs and we enjoyed our stay.

Great location, lots of space
We loved watching the Deer with their babies in the meadow in front of the cabin. Everyone had their own space and the sound proofing is fantastic to allow our teens and young adults to stay up a little later than the adults!! Close to town and highway 42 for easy access to all that Door County has to offer.

Family vacation
We loved the pickleball court, the fire pit and the size of the house. But, there is a pretty strong mildew odor in the house, plus there are no shades or blinds for any of the windows and you can’t lock the doors. The kitchen sink wasn’t clean and the whole place was dusty. Several things were broken, like the door screens, lamp shades, etc. We also could not get the TVs working. Other than those few things, we had a fabulous time!

Peaceful Paradise
Our extended family (10, all adults) stayed here to celebrate our parents’ 60th anniversary. Home perfectly accommodated us all with room for many more! We found everything we needed while there. The setting is fantastic and we especially enjoyed the deck, fire pit, pickle ball court, and dining table that fit us all. So peaceful yet so close to all the activity in Fish Creek. Highly recommend.

Great Stay
We had a great stay overall. The code did not work upon check-in, but a phone call fixed that pretty easily. A bag of dirty towels was left right outside the front door. We cleaned the grill when we got there, but it caught fire. Fire extinguisher was empty/inoperable, but we had a fire blanket. Everything else was great. Beautiful space. Great location.
