Cozy cottage tucked in the woods. 5 minutes from Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes.

Cute & cozy bungalow tucked in the woods on a quiet road just outside Jacksonport, Wisconsin, lies this cozy cottage. With only a quick 5-minute drive to a sandy public beach on Lake Michigan, you don’t have to go far to explore the beauty of the great lakes. We greatly encourage you to explore the backroads on two bikes we’ve provided and immerse yourself in Wisconsin. This homey bungalow is great for a family or a couples getaway!

The Space-
Our cottage is a mix of modern and vintage. Just recently renovated and updated, we keep this home cozy and comfortable without losing a cabin-esque charm everyone loves.
Have your morning cup of coffee on our amazing front porch while enjoying the sound of waves crashing against the bluff in the distance. Take a walk into our beautifully landscaped backyard with paths leading to a firepit fit for roasting marshmallows. Grill out on the back deck, all while taking in the scenery. Don’t forget to glance up at the night skies; we promise they are show-stoppers. A perk of being on the quiet side of Door County.

This relaxed cottage allows you to escape the busy towns' hustle and bustle while remaining close to some of the best parks and beaches. Some of our local favorites within a 3-mile radius include Cave Point and Whitefish Dunes, which you can’t miss. Cave Point is one of the most beautiful parks around, and Whitefish dunes boast hundreds of feet of sandy beach and miles of trails for hiking and cross-country skiing.
With only 1 mile to Jacksonport Beach and Lakeside park, you’re right by all the necessities Jacksonport offers. Grab goodies from the local bakery, eat and drink at two great restaurants, rent kayaks or bicycles from either of the local tour companies and grab some meats for grilling from a quaint grocery store.

Sleep-
Bedroom one includes a queen bed, dresser, closet, full-length mirror, USB charging ports, and custom-designed accent wall. Located on the front side of the house, open the windows and enjoy the waves crashing as you drift off to sleep.
Bedroom two includes a queen bed. Located on the backside of the house, this room has a full-length mirror, plenty of storage, and tons of peace and quiet.

Good Folk House was an absolutely wonderful stay. It was very comfortable and lacked for nothing. My sister and I stayed here for just over a week. It is nestled in the woods and made for a quiet and peaceful retreat. Our hosts responded to any questions in good time. They care for their property and ensure their guests enjoy a carefree vacation experience. We won’t hesitate to look them up the next time we visit Door County. Thank you Steve and Jessica!

Great location. Right down from the beach and downtown Jacksonport. Love the bikes they have to ride into town and enjoy the restaurants and beach. Home was nicely decorated. Kitchen was fully stocked with every cooking item you could need. The flattop grill outside was a welcomed surprise. Great wooded backyard for campfires. Beds were comfortable and a nice sized shower after a day at the beach. Great porch to enjoy. Would highly recommend this property.

This is the cleanest rental I have ever stayed at. This place is perfect. Bigger and nicer than the pictures online. Close to beach and cave point. Easy drive to all the cute towns. In a wooded area so if you like to sit outside bring bug spray for the evenings. Around the corner from a tiny 150 year old Methodist church that was so charming and had a beautiful Sunday service, welcoming to all guests. Kayak trip was well worth it. We also hirsebacked, wine tasting, shopping Washington Island Ferry (lavender farm, schoolhouse beach and Viking Chapel), Sturgeon Bay Lighthouse walk, shops, beach and cave point for jumping and rock climbing.

Peaceful Retreat in a Perfect Location

We had an amazing stay at the Good Folk House! The home was beautifully furnished, spotless, and stocked with everything we could possibly need—and more. The location couldn’t have been better for exploring the peninsula. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, it offered the perfect sense of peace and privacy. Just a short walk down the road brought us to the shoreline, where we enjoyed stunning views and the soothing sound of the waves. We've stayed in several VRBO's in Door County and this one is now a favorite! Thank you, Steve and Jessica, for sharing your lovely home with us. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Perfect Quiet Getaway with Responsive Hosts

We had a wonderful stay at the Good Folk House and will definitely be back! The hosts were amazing to work with, quick to answer any questions and even provided fun things to do in the area. Not only was the house extremely clean and as described, it was decorated so cute and had all of the amenities you could want. Nice quiet neighborhood, yet very close to all Door County must see spots. The backyard space is a hidden gem! Thoughtful touches throughout the house. Looking forward to our next stay!
