Previously known as a popular bed and breakfast for nearly three decades, The Little Harbor underwent a transformation to cater to large groups as a waterfront rental. Whether it's a romantic getaway, family reunion, corporate retreat, or a trip with friends, this property offers ample indoor and outdoor spaces for socializing. Each guest in your group will have their own private hotel suite, complete with a bathroom, Roku TV, and sitting area. As one of the largest group rentals in Door County and the only one of its kind, The Little Harbor stands out. Its robust construction, featuring 3-inch wide solid oak commercial grade doors, ensures minimal sound transfer between rooms and living spaces.
