About this property

Charming Cottage On The Shore Of Lake Michigan!

2019 Update: Over the winter work was done int the crawl space to address the musty smell. We are also providing a dehumidifier for those damp, chilly days. The master bedroom has been completely renovated.

2 Bedrooms, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 6
Appleport Sunrise is a charming, cozy, and comfortably furnished two-bedroom, one-bath seasonal cottage on the rocky shore (bring your beach shoes) of Lake Michigan that affords spectacular views and a quiet retreat. Located at 10372 South Appleport Lane, just a few minutes east of Sister Bay, and on Rowley’s Bay, the cabin’s open floor plan (kitchen-dining-great room) also features a deck overlooking the lake, a stone mantel gas fireplace, and ceiling fan. The kitchen is fully equipped with electric stove, refrigerator, and microwave. The great room provides internet, DVD player, games, and puzzles.
The master bedroom has a king bed. The guest bedroom has a bunk bed with a full size bed on bottom, twin bed on top and a twin trundle. The bathroom has a standup shower.
A charcoal grill can be found on the concrete patio outside the kitchen. The fire pit overlooking the lake is the perfect place for grilling hot dogs and marshmallows, or warming up on chilly evenings.

*Cannot be turned over during peak season*

** No Camper or Boat parking at any time. Contact the local township for information on public overnight parking **

Isolated and peaceful
We truly enjoyed our stay! We were looking for an isolated place with great views and the sound of waves outside the door. This cottage truly gave us all of these. While it was isolated, we still had easy access to the wonders of Door County. We were able to enjoy fires in the fire pit on two nights and the total darkness of the area allowed for some star gazing. As mentioned in earlier reviews, the sheets did not fit the main bed well – we had to remake the bed each morning. And the water softener (or water pump) turned on a couple of times each night – it was pretty loud and awakened us. Just as an FYI for future renters – there is no cable or television stations available. There is internet access via satellite, but we were not able to stream anything. However, we would definitely recommend this place and are looking at a return visit.

Perfect locations, beautiful views
My husband and I have stayed in this exact location three times now. Once on our babymoon in 2018, with our ten month old in 2019, and now with our 3 year old, 4.5 month old, and grandma! This location is centrally located on the peninsula and has spectacular views. We love being right on the water. Sunrises, sunsets, and stargazing until your hearts content! It’s on a very quiet, peaceful road with hardly any traffic. The owners have made several very welcome updates in the past couple years. Including new flooring and a remodeled kitchen. Both improvements were much needed and tastefully done. However, the beds and bathroom could also use a bit of that’s same loving touch. The bed in the master is two twins with a topper. It’s comfortable but a bit tricky as it takes up the WHOLE room and the sheets don’t fit well over it. We often had to remake the bed in the middle of the night. This room also gets quite stuffy and would benefit greatly from an air conditioning unit. The front bedroom is perfect for kids. It has a full, a trundle, and a top bunk. However, it’s not very comfortable for adults. The maitresses are quite stiff and cheap. Everything was perfect otherwise. The kitchen was well stocked and we had plenty of towels. Overall, we enjoyed our annual trip to Door County and would love to stay here again!

Family vacation
This property was perfect for our family of 4. The house was as clean as possible for a cottage about 15 feet from the water and in the woods. I loved being so close to the water, the terrain to get to the water was fairly easy to navigate and we had so much fun!

Awesome private location
Overall would rate our experience slightly below average. The location and views from the property are amazing and peaceful. However the cleaning of the property was pretty subpar and the landscaping and yard was pretty overgrown. There was hair left in in bathroom shower and the floor had dirt and hair present. Our first evening there we had took on the role of pest control removing a small mouse that showed up in the living room. I did contact the property owners via email and phone however my email was never responded to and on my phone call I was told they would pass the info on to management. I understand it’s an older place and mice happen however for the price paid for this listing I was disappointed and even more disappointed in how it’s been handled afterwards. I did give the owners time to respond to me before writing this review but haven’t heard anything so find it only reasonable to warn other people considering this listing.
