Photos and Description of the Jacksonport vacation house rental
3-4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, sleeps 12 or more

I am excited to tell you about a truly 'one of kind' location in Door County with a 'one of kind' home! On the 'Quiet Side' of Door County there is a 'Dream Home' that is literally on the borderline of the Whitefish Dunes State Park. The views are nothing short of amazing. As you look out the gigantic picture windows and skylights you will see beautiful white birch trees, an assortment of evergreen trees, huge sand dunes and a variety of wildlife including birds and whitetail deer.

Imagine.. a beautiful 4000 Square Foot Custom Built Home - with lots and lots of big windows and sky lights - that is built on the borderline of a State Park. Our home is nicely nestled in the Woods on top a huge Sand Dune that overlooks beautiful Lake Michigan. Take a 3-5 minute walk down our dune to a beautiful Sand Beach - the sand on the beach is so clean that it 'squeaks' when you walk on it. You will absolutely love our beach! Relax and build sand castles with your kids.

House Details: When you are not out hiking trails or walking the beach relax in a vacation home that is ideal for large groups of family members and friends. Use up to 4 bedrooms, 2 more 'open concept' bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and sleeping for 12-17 adults and children.

While you relax in the great room by the Fireplace your kids or friends can Party in the rec room with Ping Pong, Electric Darts, Card Table, Cable TV-DVD and Wireless Internet. Enjoy a family meal in our sun room with seating for up to 10 on the Sun Room table and 3 more at the snack bar.

Relax with a book in the cozy den area. Have a nice dinner using our Gas BBQ grill on our back deck with incredible views of the woods and huge sand dunes. Visit the Crow’S Nest to get away from it all and take in the awesome views of Lake Michigan & the Park!

The Door County Dream Home and the surrounding area will call you back year after year.

Our Home Away from Home

5 of 5
Submitted: February 8, 2013 Stayed: June 2012
We have been staying at this home for the past 5 years. We keep coming back because we have so many great memories of building sand castles, hiking in the dunes and watching the waves crash on to the shoreline. The entire Whitefish Dunes area is very beautiful and the 1 mile walk to the Nature Center at Cave Point is well worth the effort! The sand beach is amazing.

We love hanging out in the house playing ping pong, enjoying a meal in the sun room or relaxing by the fireplace. Our kids like playing in the “Crow’s Nest” and performing on the “cat walk” stage. We are anxiously awaiting our next visit in June 2013.

Great Place for a Big Family

5 of 5
Submitted: February 4, 2013 Stayed: August 2012
We spent one of our nicest family vacations here in August 2012. The home was perfect for our 3 families. We all like to cook so we enjoyed the nice kitchen area – we had seats for all 14 members of our group. The house is big enough that we never felt like we were on top of one another. There is the rec room, great room and several other rooms. Our favorite place to hang out and relax was on the sand beach. The depth of the water increases very gradually so it is very safe for the toddlers in our group. You are also able to walk for miles in either direction. The beach has beautiful, clean white sand. Our older kids loved swimming in the waves and making castles out of sand. We did have an issue with the hot tub during our stay but the owner was very quick to respond. We are looking forward to coming back in the near future.

A Slice of Heaven

5 of 5
Submitted: January 28, 2013 Stayed: November 2012
Hi Fred,

We just wanted to let you know what a fantastic time we had at your beautiful home. What a slice of heaven you have there. We absolutely loved all the large windows and skylights. The home was so much more than we expected. We felt right at home and really hated to leave. Enjoyed walking around the area with Nugget and loved hearing the roar of Lake Michigan.

Your home was decorated nicely and loved the big pieces of driftwood on the wall and next to the fireplace. The "crows nest" was unbelievable???? What a great idea.

We could go on and on but we really just want to thank you so much for the use of the house.

We can't wait to come back and bring friends.

Best regards,

Gary and Meg

Great Home and Location for a Family Reunion!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 2, 2012 Stayed: August 2011
We stayed at this property for a week in August 2011 for a family reunion. This was an awesome place for us – there was plenty of room for all 3 families and the large table in the Sunroom has seating for 10 with a snack bar with seating for another 3. Our kids loved the Rec Room, the Crow’s Nest and playing in the sand just off the back deck and of course on the beach. It is just a short walk to a very clean, sandy beach. The water was actually pretty warm and body surfing in the big waves was great. Our kids loved making sand castles. The property is directly on the borderline of the Whitefish Dunes State Park so we spent some time hiking the beautiful Whitefish Dunes Park trails and exploring the Whitefish Dunes State Park. We spent some time visiting neighboring communities for meals and ice cream trips but we were always anxious to get back “home”. We wanted for nothing and the property manager was very responsive when the dishwasher malfunctioned – it was fixed the same day. We played dozens of games of Ping Pong and shot some darts as well. The views throughout the home are incredible through oversized windows, glass sliding doors and sky lights. The home has all the modern conveniences and a huge supply of dishes and cooking utensils. This was very important for us because we dined in all but 2 nights. We have a lot of great memories from our trip and look forward to returning for our next family reunion. If you make the trip to Door County be sure to dine a Glidden Lodge (just 1.5 miles away) and if you like Family Style Chicken be sure to eat at the Mill Supper Club. The Hitching Post is also very close and casual – great place for a burger and a beer.

A very Dreamy Home and Location

5 of 5
Submitted: February 16, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
We had a wonderful, relaxing weekend at this beautiful home. We enjoyed making fires in the Great Room (beautiful cathedral ceilings), playing ping pong in the Recreation Room (sky lights) and having family meals together with seating for our entire group of 10 people. Some of our group ventured up to the crow's nest to check out the awesome views of the park. The first day we talk a walk back in the Sand Dunes. The next day we strolled down the long beach. Thank you for a great weekend. We are already planning our next trip back!
Owner's Response: Thanks for your review and thanks so much for leaving our home in perfect condition. We look forward to seeing your group again next year!
