Memorable Stay
What a perfect place to gather as family and friends for a family wedding weekend. The house was perfect and close to the church and venue for the ceremony and reception. We enjoyed the walk to the lighhouse and grounds and took in the beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing your home for this perfect getaway.

We had a fantastic time at Pelican Lookout. The house was as beautiful as pictured and we loved taking the kayaks out on the shallow, calm bay. Everybody could sit down to a meal at the same time as well! We had a great time with family!

Family Fun in Bailey’s Harbor
Clean and well supplied with plates, utensils, towels, beach towels, beach chairs. Could use a second refrigerator for large groups. Plenty of sleeping space for all age groups. No central air which makes bedrooms very warm. Great location near beautiful Cana Island. Nice sandy beach within five walking minutes that was never crowded and good little bay area for kayaking. Great view from the second floor. Kids enjoyed the game room. Large dining table was neat for whole family to sit for meals. Slight problem with snakes especially near garage and garbage can area outside - could use exterminator help with this?

The perfect house for a large group
The location is perfect if you’re looking for something off the beaten path but still special. You’re within walking distant to the Cana Island lighthouse and the view of the water is amazing out the front windows (or from the balcony). The house was clean and beautifully decorated with tons of space for everyone.

Wonderfully relaxing!
We were a group of women who met in college and have been visiting in Door County since 1992. Your home was a perfect gathering place for us, although a little larger than we need. Everything was perfect. The home was very clean and well stocked with more than enough paper supplies and towels. We loved the location for walks over to Cana Island, one of our favorite lighthouses. Pelican Bay was perfect for kayaking and watching sunsets. We would defintely come back if we had more people in our group.

Family memories
The property was a comfortable, rambling 2 1/2 story home with something for everybody. Whether playing a fast game of ping pong or a competitive game of foosball or darts the place was a kids dream. Our grandkids played in the loft area upstairs while the adults visited downstairs. The 2 person kayak provided a fun and safe !experience in shallow moonlight bay. Peter was a very attentive and communicative host. One great family reunion!

Perfect for our big family trip!
We loved staying here! We had 16 in our group for our weeklong celebration of my in-laws' 50th anniversary: 4 adult couples and eight grandkids from 11-19 years old. There was plenty of room for all of us. We especially loved being able to all eat together at the giant dining table, which is a rarity at this kind of rental. The whole house was truly set up for a large group to enjoy their time together, not just pack in as many beds as possible. We enjoyed early morning coffee and yoga by the lake, fires in the front yard fire pit, and walks to the Cana Island causeway to see the stars - we could not have asked for a more perfect property or location. The host, Peter, is great! He was very helpful and responsive to all my questions before and throughout our stay. We'd all happily return to this property!

House was perfect for our family.
The house was great. You have to cross a road to get to the pier but that worked out OK. Sandy beach a short walk away. The lack of rain kept us from utilizing the pier. Kitchen table was great for meals. We could all sit together with room for a few more. Kitchen was well stocked with plates glasses silverware pots pans knives storage containers.

Fall Family Gathering
A grand home with a beautiful view of Pelican Bay. Plenty of room for all to relax and unwind. Nestled in the woods this home was private and away from all the hustle and bustle that can be found in some of the Door County towns during fall weekends. We thoroughly enjoyed cooking in the stocked kitchen, family meals at the large dining table and making s'mores while chatting by the firepit. Our stay was delightful!

Perfect spot for a family reunion
We stayed at Pelican Lookout for a multi-generation family reunion and found it to be a wonderful place. The kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need and the dining table seated 18 people! Comfortable family and living rooms, along with a large deck, firepit, and dock allowed smaller groups to gather. The game room was a big hit, too, along with the Cana Island Lighthouse just a short stroll down the road. Plenty of linens and towels, along with bunkbeds and beds in the loft and 3.5 lovely new bathrooms allowed our multi-age group to stay together in comfort. The stars and the sounds of the waves were magical and Spikehorn Bay was great for swimming and kayaking. When the hot water went off over the weekend, the owner arranged for immediate repair and the issue was resolved very quickly. Highly recommended!

The property was the perfect size for our group. The configuration of the bedrooms and sleeping arrangements worked for us. The kitchen was a bit small, but the large table was perfect. We were a bit disappointed that the lighthouse was not accessible and the water for our beach was so low. We saw a porcupine and enjoyed the kayaks and bikes. Thanks for the memories.

This house was amazing from top to bottom and in an absolutely gorgeous location. You get to enjoy sunsets on the beach or from the front porch every night and are a short drive from many major towns in the Door County area. We had 14 family members together to celebrate my parents 50th wedding anniversary and it was perfect. The kitchen is a generous size and the dining room table fit all of us, we rarely have the opportunity to sit all together for meals and this was PERFECT!! We loved the outdoor area for playing games, the indoor game room was perfect when it was raining and the kayaks and bikes brought so much joy to our family. THANK YOU for renting out this amazing property.

It was a lovely stay. The house has almost everything you can think of to need. Tons of towels and beddings, as well as dishes for a big group of people. It was great to have two living areas so we had space for people who wanted quieter. The location is easy to get to Bailey's harbor, as well as Sister bay and Fish creek. We had 11 people and we could have fit a few more in easily.
