Outstanding accommodations! The Cupola House ranks #1 out of our nine annual get togethers at VRBO’s. This house felt like home, had everything you would need and more, and a beautiful view we admired throughout our time there. Host is an excellent communicator and we can’t wait to stay here again.
The property was beautiful! The view was amazing! This property worked out great for our girl's trip! The owner was super responsive and great! We highly recommend this property and would definitely book this property again!
The Cupola Home was perfect for our family of 6 adults and 6 children. The house is in excellent condition and extremely clean. The location worked out very well for our day trips in Door County. We all enjoyed the beautiful sunsets and we highly recommend this vacation home.
The word perfect does not do this home justice. We are a military family & this was not only our first vacation in five years but a religious pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Champion. The five days we spent at the Cupola House were absolutely amazing and we could not have fathomed a better home or location for our vacation. Words like: Peaceful, Serene, Stunning Views, all capture our time at The Cupola House; but perhaps the best word to describe our stay, our host, and the home is... Blessed.
We hosted a small wedding here and had our family stay with us. The house couldn’t have been more perfect! The outdoor space offers stunning views of the water, with a staircase leading down to a beautiful rocky shoreline. Inside, the home is not only beautifully decorated but also fully stocked with everything you might need. It felt more like staying in a welcoming home than a rental. We had 10 people in our group, and there was plenty of space for everyone to relax without ever feeling crowded. The home was spotless, with ample seating and cozy gathering areas. Sherman was an exceptional host, friendly, communicative, and attentive from the very start. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and stress-free. The location is perfect too. It's peaceful and scenic, yet just a 20 minute drive from Sturgeon Bay. We will definitely stay here again. It was truly a memorable experience!
This was a top-notch stay! Our family was impressed by the beautiful property that not only offered a fantastic bay view, it had something extra to offer for every member of the family. The grandkids(2-3-4 and7 years) never had a dull moment. Neither did their parents. Nor Nana and Pappy. Everyone agreed that this was the best rental they had ever experienced. Seemingly everything we needed had been provided for us by our helpful host Sherman. If you have a chance to stay in the Cupola House do not delay. Everything was actually much nicer than the photographs could portray- roomy and comfortably clean - very nicely decorated. It's a GEM! Thank you!
Our stay was excellent. House arrangement was perfect for our family of 11. Very clean with great amenities. Property owner was awesome to talk to and made several recommendations for activities in the area. We played until we were exhausted. Our family highly recommends this for any family looking for a beautiful and quiet place to stay while in Door County.
A beautiful property. Spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook family dinners together. Comfy bedrooms. Amazing water views and outdoor space. Gracious and knowledgeable host!
We really enjoyed our stay. Sherman called us on check in to make sure everything was gong well. There is a beautiful view of the Bay of Green Bay. Made for incredible sunsets. Would highly recommend this property to my friends and family.
We had a fantastic family time at the Cupola House. The house is beautiful with a gorgeous lake view. Kitchen is very tastefully decorated and sufficiently stocked. There was ample space for our extended family with 12 people. We’d love to return back to this property to make more memories with loved ones!
