Darn Near Perfect

Beautiful home, immaculately maintained with incredible views from the living room, three bedrooms and multiple decks. The pictures don't do it justice. Picturesque spot on the ledge with easy access to the beach below. Only minutes away by foot from Gills Rock and rest of northern Door County by car, the place feels wonderfully secluded and private. And a great kitchen for cooking to top it off. You won’t be disappointed!

My Husband and I along our kids stayed at this wonderful cabin for our 2011 holiday.
The place was clean, well kept, and had every possible need taken care of. All we needed to buy was to buy food the rest was there waiting for us to use.
The owners were very easy and friendly to work with and quite accommodating to our requests. Great area to take long walks to absorb mother nature. Even sat by the water along side a blazing fire pit. Yes even in December! Relaxing and quite even though we had neighbors all we heard every morning were the waves crashing on the shoreline. Read some books while we were there nice collection(even in Spanish). Planning to visit again but a bit longer next time.
Thanks, Dan and Cindy for a memorable Christmas that our whole family will treasure forever. :)

Our family of 8 really enjoyed our stay at Sky Ledge/Gills Rock. I mentioned to Dan that the website at VRBO didn't do the house/location justice and was better than advertised. Our previous trips to Door County usualy involved staying in the southern part of Door County (Egg Harbor) and while we enjoyed that area, we were looking for a quieter visit this time. Gills Rock and the surrounding area were perfect. Thanks for sharing your house.

My husband, our Border Collie and I spent a fabulous 7 days at Sky Ledge! It was just what the doctor ordered...The home was even better than we expected and was exceptionally well maintained. The views were incredible and the peacefullness was unmatched. The skylights in the living area really opened up the house and made it feel as though you were sitting outside. Our week was a little chilly but we didn't hesitate for a minute to bundle up and sit out on one of the many decks to enjoy the waves crashing below or the fabulous night sky with stars abound. We watched the ferry go back and forth to Washington Island and also enjoyed the occasional barge that would make its way across Green Bay. I can't say enough "good things" about Sky Ledge and it's owners Dan and Cindy, they made our stay effortless and were available almost immediately for any questions or concerns we had. We will definitely be back to Sky Ledge for another wonderful week of rest and relaxation!

Owner's Response: We love to have our guests and 4 legged friends come to our home and just thoroughly enjoy their decision to stay for some worthwhile and I might add deserved time.

Couldn't wait to see if Sky Ledge would provide what the website suggested. Oh, did it! Having been in Door County countless times as a youth, and many times as an adult, I knew the area. It was exciting to see the website location and imagine being literally on the tip of the Door! Well, we really were! It was spectacular and stunning! An incredibly maintained home in a wooded setting that feels welcoming immediately. The interior is rustic, open, and immaculate. The photos do not do this home justice! Sky Ledge is a very thoughtfully appointed home. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, silverware and preparation pieces. Cleaning products for the kitchen and laundry were available, but bring your own paper supplies i.e. napkins, towels, toilet paper, kleenex, personal soap. All were provided but depending on the number of guests and length of stay, more may be needed. We had four teenage boys with us who couldn't have enjoyed the rock beach and fire pit more. Although we spent much time in the area enjoying nature and low-key activities, we spent the majority of each day at Skyledge! We loved every minute of it! Can't wait for the chance to visit again! Dan was very friendly and easy to deal with when inquiring and securing our reservation. All our transactions were timely and efficient. Thanks Dan (and Cindy) for everything.
Owner's Response: We really enjoy having families come stay with us and take advantage of all the natural beauty that is part of the Door County experience. We always hope that our home provides a relaxing yet stimulating environment to spend some holiday time together.
