Door County Waterfront Cottage on Sawyer Harbor | 3BR/2BA | Sleeps 10

Coffee at the dock while the harbor wakes up. Kayaks stacked and ready. A gas fireplace glowing through floor-to-ceiling windows on the nights the water's too cold to paddle. Sawyer Harbor doesn't ask anything of you — just whether you want to be on the water, watching it, or warming up beside it.

Sawyer Harbor Retreat is a 3-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront cottage on the quiet arm of the bay just south of Sturgeon Bay. Space for 10 guests, a private dock, 4 kayaks + canoe, and a kitchen stocked well enough that some guests cook every meal. Seven minutes from Potawatomi State Park, five minutes from Idlewild Golf Course, and a walk down the yard from the harbor itself.

✔ Self check-in for easy, stress-free arrivals ✔ High-speed Wi-Fi throughout the home

⚠️ 2026 Water Level Note
Water levels in Sawyer Harbor are lower than in previous years, which may affect kayak launching depth at the dock. Kayaks and canoes are still available and usable — launching may simply require a little extra effort depending on conditions. We want you to have accurate expectations so there are no surprises on arrival.
