Welcome to our little slice of peace and quiet in Door County, Cedarview Hideway, hosted by Simple Life Rentals! With sweeping views of The Ridges Sanctuary's extensive forests, this property will instantly have you in vacation mode. Located just outside of Bailey's Harbor, Cedarview Hideaway is far enough from the hustle and bustle to relax but close enough to find all the dining, shopping, and fun you can handle during your stay. Featuring a large, eat-in kitchen and bright, spacious living room, your home away from home has been updated with a third bathroom, new flooring, new appliances, and all new furnishings. The wooded property offers serenity, peace, and beauty. The vast outdoor deck is the perfect place for a quiet sunrise cup of coffee or an evening BBQ with the family. If you're a night owl, it's also a fantastic spot for stargazing.
The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, and the house is located on a wooded circle road with many Door County "locals." It's a great place to walk and enjoy nature. The houses in the neighborhood are generously spaced.
*This property is located in a quiet community with neighbors and is geared towards quiet family vacations. Due to the proximity of neighbors and municipal restrictions, we cannot accommodate parties at the property including bachelor or bachelorette parties, reunions, weddings, or other gatherings.

Surrounding Area:
Door County is full of many amazing things to see and do! We recommend you check out Destination Door County, the visitors' bureau, to help map out your vacation. "Door County Vacationers" is also a great FB group to join to get recommendations on everything from favorite restaurants to favorite tours, places to rent boats, and things to do.
Restaurants:
Breakfast: FIKA Bakery in Fish Creek (their scones and sweet rolls are a must-try), Al Johnson's in Sister Bay, Old Post Office in Ephraim, or Big Easy in Egg Harbor. Harbor Fish Market also has a nice breakfast if you're looking to stay close. We also like Bayside Coffee in Fish Creek (super cute waterfront coffee/breakfast spot) and Bearded Heart in Baileys Harbor.
Lunch: Blue Horse Beach Cafe in Fish Creek, Cornerstone Pub in Baileys Harbor, DCBC Eats in Baileys Harbor, Door County Creamery in Sister Bay.
Dinner: Chives and Food Trucks in Baileys Harbor, Wild Tomato in Fish Creek or Sister Bay, Wilson's in Ephraim. We mostly go to family-friendly places, so we don't have as many experiences with fine dining in Door County!
Ice Cream: We love Door County Ice Cream Factory (Sister Bay), the gelato from Door County Creamery, and Wilson's.
Activity Recommendations:
Hiking: Cave Point, The Ridges, Peninsula State Park
Adventure: Kayaking (Cave Point, or Kangaroo Lake for a quieter/less strenuous experience), Biking in Peninsula State Park, Jet skiing (various rentals available), fishing chartersWine tasting (Lautenbach's is a favorite, as is Stone's Throw) or cider tasting at Island Orchard
Farm Markets: Koepsel's near Sister Bay, Wood Orchard in Egg Harbor, and Seaquist near Ellison Bay.Shopping: Fish Creek, Ephraim, and Sister Bay (some neat shops in Baileys Harbor, too)Weekly farmer's markets in each community (you can usually find one on any day of the week!)
Golf: Stonehedge is a budget-friendly and flexible option if you're looking for a quick/casual round, whereas Peninsula and The Orchards are both great for a higher-end experience.
Activities for the family:
Hiking: The Ridges and Peninsula are both very stroller-friendly. The Eagle Tower in Peninsula is a must-see and is stroller-friendly.
Pirate's Cove mini-golf (Sister Bay) is always a must-stop, Sister Bay Bowl or the Egg Harbor Library are both good options for a rainy day.
The Farm near Sturgeon Bay is a really fun activity for kids, especially early in the season when they have baby animals to feed and hold! Going to see the boats in Eagle Harbor (Ephraim) or any of the area harbors is fun for kids.
