We stayed in Troll Cottage, which was a pleasant surprise and perfect for our little family. It was cozy and clean and had everything we needed. The staff was helpful and friendly. We loved being away from the busier spots like Sister Bay or Ephraim. Beautiful views! Would definitely stay there again!

This place was beautiful. It was cute, quiet, peaceful, and clean. Right across from the lake. Beautiful view from the Garden room every morning! The room was great. Couch bed not too bad. King bed of course way better. Nice updated shower. Mini fridge and micro in room but a great kitchen you can cook your own food in. Kitchen you share with others but we only ever saw one other family who were lovely. Some rooms have kitchinettes. This place was beautiful. Easy contactless check.in. Inn keeper always around. I will definitely book again! Fell in love with this area.

I had a very peaceful stay and found the room cozy. All the other guests were extremely quiet and barely noticed that anyone else was staying there. The area is beautiful and would consider staying here again.

Great Place!
Self check-in was very convenient. Received text and email with room code and was able to go directly to room on arrival. Room was clean and very comfortable. Beautiful common area/kitchen to hang out in. Water views and sunset were amazing.

The Troll Cottage was an amazing place to stay for family. It was a detached room so it gives more privacy. The rustic vibe of the place surrounded by trees will give an added feel of peace and relaxation. Special thanks to Eric! he was very helpful with instructions for check in and very attentive to our requests. He even set up a bonfire for us to enjoy the cold fall weather fall at night at the backyard. It’s worth the 4.5 hours drive from the Chicagoland area. This place is highly recommended and very near the Washington Ferry Island ferry station in case folks would want to visit the Washington Island for a day trip. warm thanks again Eric for the superb accommodation!
