Porch Time is a perfect gathering space for couples, families, and friends looking to enjoy a comfortable new house with unique outdoor spaces and "perfect sunset views" of Little Sturgeon Bay from the massive covered porch that spans the entire length of the house or through large glass doors in the great room and bedrooms. The house is easily accessible with 36" doors all on 1 level and is well equipped with all linens, towels, soaps, spices, games, puzzles, TV, and reliable WiFi.
Only 45 minutes from Green Bay and 15 to Sturgeon Bay.
The modern kitchen with large island overlooks the great room and is perfect for food prep and conversation. All the pots, pans, utensils, and casseroles are provided as well as a well stocked coffee bar with a coffee maker, ground coffee, filters, and a grinder. The great room comfortably accommodates TV watching or game playing on the ornate coffee table and seating for 8 at the dining room table.
We can accommodate 6 adults comfortably in the 3 bedrooms. 2 bedrooms have queen beds and the master suite has a king bed. The master suite also has a full sized futon AND a set of twin sized bunk beds in over sized walk in closet. Both the futon and the bunk beds work great for kids, but can accommodate adults as well. We also have a queen size mattress under the king bed available which can be placed in the great room or in the master suite. Bedroom 2 also has a twin sized futon that comfortably accommodates 1 person.
The covered porch highlights the property. You can spend an entire day here in the comfortable patio furniture watching the boats and wildlife, eating your meals, sampling from your cooler, and then enjoying the setting sun. Grill up your food on the gas grill (with propane provided) and eat at the glass topped table.
There is also a protected sitting area outside the front entrance for days when there's a strong wind off the lake.
In the large yard, you can enjoy sun or shade (there is plenty of each!), play any of the provided yard games, enjoy volleyball or badminton (net is set up May -October), commune around the large fire pit (wood provided), hang out in one of the provided hammocks, or simply relax on the waterfront.
A seawall protects the waterfront with large rocks in the water and a flat, lighted walkway on the house side. The walkway provides an incredible vantage point for the expansive views of the bay.
You can easily access the water through an opening in the wall. We provide 2 kayaks and other items to enjoy the water. There are stairs crafted from large rocks leading into the water and is shallow but rocky and there are weed patches. The swimming here is great!
You may also use the 2 car attached garage and garage door openers.
