Spectacular View
The house sits right on the lake making for breath taking views and access to the beach. The house and grounds are well kept with numerous amenities. You can tell the owner takes pride in keeping the property clean and maintained. We walked the beach, built fires, paddle board, kayaked, and visited numerous orchards and wineries. The weather was gorgeous and the leaves just beginning to show their colors. We enjoyed our stay and would return again.

Quality Door County lakeside stay!
Great place that felt like home away from home. Jim was a great host. Very attentive and made sure everything was taken care of. Paddleboarding into the sunrise was a treat in the mornings. Would definitely stay again!

We loved living the lake life!
Both young and old loved our stay at Cedar Shores. It was everyone's first time in Door County and Cedar Shores was a well-positioned home base. We went on epic beach walks, saw wildlife, had bonfires, rented a paddleboard and sometimes just sat and listened to the waves. It was such a treat to have the lake right out back! The house is well-stocked and clean. We had 4 adults and 2 kids and had plenty of space. The host is very communicative and helpful. If we ever return to Door County, we'd book this home again.
