About this property

Experience True Door County Charm!

Experience true Door County charm in this recently renovated, inviting home owned by one of Ephraim’s founding families. The Thorp family history dates back to the 1850s with the founding of the Village by Reverend Iverson. Family owned for over 60 years, BD, the owner, grew up in this lovingly cared for home. The immaculate interior has a master bedroom with king bed, nautical themed bedroom with queen bed, and country-cottage ambiance in the third bedroom with a double bed. The bathroom boasts a new large walk-in shower with safety rail. Newly updated kitchen comes fully equipped and the home also has a laundry room with washer and dryer. Central air will make your stay more comfortable on those hottest summer days. Large landscaped yard with mature trees, picnic table, Adirondack chairs and hammock.

Guest Comments 2019:

June 2019
We had a lovely time at your home. My three boys and I loved exploring and being connected to a nature landscape in a way we aren’t able to in the city. Your home was a safe and inviting space for our family, thank you!

July 2019
We had another wonderful stay at the Thorp House! Thank you so much for your hospitality and for recommending Wilson’s Ice Cream Parlor and Fika Coffee and Bakery- loved them both! We are planning on coming back next year!

July 2019
Clean, comfortable and well equipped. We had another great week at the BD Thorp House. Thank you for your hospitality and concern. We especially appreciated your visit during the storm to make sure we were comfortable and ready.

July 2019
BD- You did it again! Your careful planning, generosity, and gracious hospitality made you our vacation hero! Were looking forward to our 5th visit soon. Were very grateful!

August 2019
This is our second year staying at this house and was just as wonderful as last time. We played outside in the huge yard everyday and I snuck in a nap in the hammock. It is such a warm and homey place. Thank you so much for all of the hospitality. Thank you for recommending the Old Post Office, we will be going back for breakfast. We are very sad to see our vacation end and we are counting the days until we come back next year. Thank you again.

September 2019
Thank you for another wonderful stay at your home! This is the second time my husband and I brought my mother and aunt to stay at your home. Everything was perfect! You thought of every detail. We look forward to staying again!

Thank you for the beautiful stay. Loved the house and the yard. Perfect spot for the fall colors. We saw several deer from the living window. Mom and I had a great time.

October 2019
Thank you for this wonderful home! Slept like babies! This home was spotless and we had a perfect weekend.
