Excellent property
We had a great time staying here. The cabin is cozy and inviting, the kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans/utensils, and the accommodations are great. The bathrooms have heated floors which were delightful to walk on. The owners also have a generous supply of fire wood for their guests to use, completing the atmosphere of a cozy cottage retreat.

Things
the 3 women needed small mirrors in bedrooms to get ready when men were using the bathrooms. No matter how we scheduled the 2 bathrooms, getting ready to go out took time. Otherwise, house was fine.

Visit to Roo Retreat
A quick few quick days in Door County with friends…looked for something centrally located but quiet. Roo Retreat is the place! Clean, quiet, easy access to both shores, wineries, Peninsula Players, restaurants, everything we wanted to do. Perfect size for two couples, big table for games and visiting. Wish we could have made more use of the screen porch and fire ring, we were just busy with other stuff. Next time for sure!

Dark and dreary
I’m disappointed that the online photos of the house appear to have been embellished. It looks light and bright, but was dark and shadowy even with every light in the house turned on. It was also not near the lively, more happening areas in Door County. I suggest renting in Sister Bay if you want to be near the nicer restaurants and shopping. Loved the ferry and Washington island. for us this rental was a bust.
