Dorothy’s Dacha Cottage On Lake Michigan Celebrates 6 Years on RentWisconsinCabins.com.

PACKER FANS!! Dorothy’s Dacha is the only license rental in the Town of Scott. It is a private vacation home in Wisconsin’s scenic Green Bay, made comfortable year-round by air conditioning and heating, and extra cozy in winter by the wood-burning fireplace

Six years of success on RentWisconsinCabins.com is no small feat, but Dorothy’s Dacha has become a staple for families seeking the perfect escape on the Wisconsin shore of Green Bay. Nestled between the iconic Lambeau Field and the charming waters of Sturgeon Bay, this private vacation home is a dream come true in all seasons.

What Makes Dorothy’s Dacha So Special?

For starters, Dorothy’s Dacha isn’t just any cabin—it’s a Dacha, a charming country house built for comfort and relaxation. With 1,500 square feet of living space, it comfortably accommodates up to seven guests across two private bedrooms. The Blue Room, with its lake views, is a guest favorite, featuring two queen-sized beds, while the Yellow Room offers a cozy retreat with a single queen-sized bed.

Whether you’re enjoying the wood-burning fireplace in the winter or sunbathing on your private beach in the summer, Dorothy’s Dacha has year-round appeal. The woodsy, semi-rural surroundings invite wildlife into your personal nature show—deer at dinnertime, pelicans soaring over the bay, and even the occasional fireworks display across the water. And let’s not forget those Green Bay sunsets, painting the sky with hues that will take your breath away.

Lake Michigan Adventures in Door County

Dorothy’s Dacha sits at the northernmost end of Green Bay, the perfect launchpad for all that Door County has to offer. Just 25 minutes from the lively streets of Sturgeon Bay, this home gives you the flexibility to explore Egg Harbor, Sister Bay, and Fish Creek, where boutique shopping, wineries, and waterfront dining await. Washington Island is a must-see for those who like to explore beyond the mainland.

If you’re a Green Bay Packers fan, plan your visit during football season! Dorothy’s Dacha is also just 25 minutes from the famous Lambeau Field, making it a prime location for a football weekend getaway.

Relaxation Meets Excitement

After a day of exploring Door County, return to Dorothy’s Dacha to enjoy a beach bonfire or grill up a feast on the open-air deck. For adventure lovers, the surrounding area offers everything from windsurfing and jet-skiing on the open waters to quiet paddles along the bay. And if you’re lucky enough to visit during the Green Bay Tall Ships Festival in August, you can catch the parade of ships right from your front yard.

Six Years of Memorable Vacations

For six years, Dorothy’s Dacha has provided families with unforgettable vacations along the shores of Green Bay. Whether you’re seeking the peacefulness of nature or the excitement of nearby attractions, this cozy Dacha delivers. Here’s to many more years of sunsets, starry nights, and Door County adventures!

The Point House (St. Germain, WI) and Bay View Cottage (Oconto, WI) Offer Northwoods and Door County Flavors.
by

The Point House (St. Germain, WI) and Bay View Cottage (Oconto, WI) Offer Northwoods and Door County Flavors.

You pick your vacation vibe:

Up North or Door County? The Great Wisconsin Vacation Debate

So, you’re planning a Wisconsin getaway. You’re probably thinking, “I want lakes, trees, and fresh air—but which direction should I head? North, where the loons sing, or east, where Lake Michigan looks like an ocean and cheeseheads are never far away?” Fear not, my indecisive friend, because I’m about to break it down for you with two fantastic cabins that offer two very different but equally awesome Wisconsin vibes.

Option 1: The Point House – St. Germain, WI (AKA: “Up North Paradise”)

Vibe: Picture yourself on your own private island—but, you know, without the hassle of building a boat or learning how to fish for coconuts. The Point House in St. Germain is like a slice of heaven tucked at the end of a private road. You’ll have the serene waters of Little St. Germain Lake wrapping around you on three sides like a big ol’ nature hug. Knotty pine walls? Check. Cozy fireplace? Double check. It’s the cabin of your “Up North” dreams.

What to Expect:

  • Three bedrooms (so yes, you can invite your friends or that weird cousin who really loves fishing).
  • Your own private pier, perfect for casting a line or contemplating life’s mysteries.
  • A screened gazebo where you can pretend to be outdoorsy while avoiding the bugs.
  • A fireplace that says, “Yes, I’m rugged enough to chop wood, but I’d rather just watch it burn.”

Things To Do: During the summer, take full advantage of the shallow, sandy swimming area where the kids (or you, no judgment) can splash around for hours. Come winter, hit the snowmobile trails like a seasoned Northwoods adventurer, then cozy up by the fire because, let’s be real, that’s the best part of winter. St. Germain has a little bit of everything—shopping, golfing, horseback riding—but really, it’s all about soaking up that “Up North” vibe.

Option 2: Bay View Cottage – Oconto, WI (AKA: “Door County’s Cool Cousin”)

Vibe: Welcome to the quieter side of Door County, where Green Bay’s waves lap gently against the shore, and there’s enough space to fit you, your boat, and your deep love of Packers football. Bay View Cottage is for those who want a blend of lake life, historical exploration, and the chance to tailgate at Lambeau without having to drive too far.

What to Expect:

  • Three bedrooms (including a primary suite with a king bed and workspace in case you need to pretend to be productive).
  • A gourmet kitchen that whispers, “You should totally make a five-course meal,” but also, “Pizza rolls work too.”
  • A sunroom that bathes you in natural light and makes you look super photogenic, even if you’re just lounging with coffee.
  • Smart TV for all your streaming needs (because sometimes, a Netflix binge is exactly what vacation calls for).

Things To Do: ATV trails, hunting, fishing—Oconto’s got your outdoor adventure needs covered. Plus, Lambeau Field is close enough for you to throw on your cheesehead and tailgate like a local. Don’t forget to stop by the Forgotten Fire Winery for some quality wine-tasting or head to Copper Culture State Park for a scenic hike that says, “I’m a nature lover” without demanding you climb an actual mountain.

The Verdict?

Do you prefer the calm, peaceful isolation of the Northwoods, where your biggest challenge is choosing between a swim or a nap in the gazebo? The Point House in St. Germain is calling your name.

Or, do you want to blend lakefront serenity with the ability to pop over to a Packers game, a winery, or a museum? Bay View Cottage in Oconto has you covered.

Either way, you’re winning at Wisconsin vacationing. So flip a coin, roll the dice, or just stay at both (we won’t judge). Just make sure you book directly through RentWisconsinCabins.com, where you’ll save money by avoiding booking fees and spend it on more important things—like extra marshmallows for the campfire.

The resort offers an array of complimentary boats and sporting equipment. For those bringing their own motorboats, we provide dock access on nearby Birch Lake, known for its water skiing and top-notch musky fishing.

Things to Do

While Deer Lake Resort offers enough to keep you entertained for days, adventure is never far away. We are just a 45-minute drive from Lake Superior, where you can enjoy public beaches, boat rentals, and more.

Pets considered

Picture this: You’re sipping your morning coffee on the porch, gazing out over the calm waters of Little Star Lake. It’s early, but you can already feel the promise of a perfect day ahead—whether it’s casting a line, cruising the lake, or simply soaking up the peace and quiet of the Northwoods. Welcome to Cozy Cottage, your gateway to the Manitowish Chain O’ Lakes, a true “Up North” treasure trove.

The Ultimate Lakeside Retreat

Nestled on a level lot, Cozy Cottage boasts a private dock that gives you direct access to the lake. With 58.5 miles of scenic shoreline on the Manitowish Chain, you’re never far from a new adventure. Whether you’re looking to spend the day boating, fishing, or just splashing around at the beach (look for the buoyed swimming area), this spot is a Northwoods paradise. Little Star Lake’s sandy shoreline is perfect for kids—and the young at heart!—to spend hours in the water. And when it’s time to wash off, there’s even a hand water pump for a bit of rustic charm.

Grill Masters Welcome

Speaking of rustic charm, let’s talk about the porch. Imagine this: You’re at the Weber grill, spatula in one hand and a cold drink in the other. The scent of sizzling burgers fills the air while you and your crew share stories of the day’s adventures. If grilling isn’t your thing, head inside to the well-stocked kitchen, equipped with all the essentials to whip up a feast.

Sleep Like a Log

When it’s time to rest up for another day of lakeside fun, Cozy Cottage has you covered. With two bedrooms—one with a queen bed and the other with two twins—you’ll drift off to sleep with the sound of the lake lapping against the shore. Oh, and there’s a full bath too, just in case you were wondering!

A Slice of History Next Door

Want to add a little thrill to your stay? Cozy Cottage is just a stone’s throw from the legendary Little Bohemia Lodge, where the infamous John Dillinger had his famous shootout with authorities. Not only is it a historical site, but it’s also where they filmed Public Enemies. After you soak up some history, walk over for a meal at Little Bo, where you’ll find friendly dining and quirky gifts. And don’t miss the Dock ‘N Shop—a floating retail boutique that’s as unique as it sounds!

Endless Activities, Year-Round Fun

Of course, your time at Cozy Cottage isn’t limited to the lake. Bring your own boat and dock it right out front, then set off to explore all 10 lakes of the Manitowish Chain. Whether you’re into fishing (think musky, bass, walleye, and more), biking, hiking, or just enjoying the natural beauty of the area, there’s no shortage of things to do.

If you’re lucky enough to visit in the fall, prepare for a stunning colorama experience as the Northwoods bursts into vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows. Or, if winter is your season, the area transforms into a snowy wonderland with snowmobile trails, ski paths, and cozy nights by the fire.

Why Book Direct?

Now, here’s the cherry on top: When you book directly with Daniel and Debbie (the fantastic owners of Cozy Cottage), you skip the extra fees that come with platforms like VRBO and Airbnb. That means more of your vacation budget can go towards, say, a dinner at Little Bo or that extra fishing lure you’ve had your eye on. Plus, booking direct means you get local tips straight from the source. Daniel and Debbie are your personal guides to the best festivals, events, and activities in the area.

So, what are you waiting for? Cozy Cottage is calling your name, and the Northwoods are ready to welcome you. Whether it’s a family getaway, a romantic retreat, or just a much-needed break, this is the spot to make it happen.
