The courtyard is shared space between the retail spaces, yourself and then the other guests renting the City Apartment across the courtyard. Please be respectful of all parties looking to enjoy the space.
It is literally in the heart of Historic Downtown. You can walk to all the great shops, restaurant and watering holes in a matter of seconds. Or enjoy a stroll over the historic Steelbridge and enjoy more shops, eatery's or our local maritime museum!
Guests will have exclusive access to the City Cottage
Courtyard is shared between two rentals and our business owner.
For the safety and security of guests and the business owner, there is one exterior camera facing the courtyard.
This sweet little space has all the amenities of your own apartment/home just scaled down to fit into just shy of 400 square feet!
While the space is small and cozy and located in an alley, we have tried hard to create an oasis within the boundaries of our property line. You can relax by a fire or simple sit and enjoy night sky in the courtyard that is strung with colored lights and comfy chairs. Or take a stroll down to the waters edge (morning or night) just a few short blocks away. We encourage our guests to enjoy the courtyard by the fire ring and if we are down there, you are always welcome to join us.
Please note that the bedroom and bathroom are like tiny house living. The bedroom does fit a queen size bed and room to walk around on either side along with space for luggage and anything that needs to be hung. The bathroom has been referred to as a European sized bathroom. There is a full tiled shower with a seat to allow for more head room as the space is as unique as the old carriage house itself. Tall folks (6' +) just be aware, it may be more comfortable to sit and shower than stand.
You won't need public transit as everything is within walking distance, rain or shine!
HOW TO GET HERE & WHERE TO PARK
The address listed is the front door of the Main Building and the Cottage parking and entrance is located in the alley behind the address listed, please follow the step by step directions on how to find parking.
......
1.) Take the business district exit (veer right by Walgreens) go down Madison Ave, follow Madison Ave over the Steel bridge (Madison Ave changes to Michigan once on the east side).
2.) You'll come to a stop sign at 3rd Ave and Michigan go straight through for 100 or so feet, turn LEFT immediately AFTER Door County Vacuum and before Stangel Accounting
3.) We are the two stall garage (the only garage in the ally) on your left with wood vertical siding. If you've past the US Postal Box, you've gone 50 feet to far.
4.) Pull into one of the two empty spots directly behind the garage/carriage house, doors are painted a yellow and light greenish color. Please do not pull into the large gravel parking lot, that is not our property and the owner gets grumpy! :)
5.) Walk around the building to the courtyard, the door to the left is the entrance!
If you go over the Oregon Street bridge instead of the steel bridge turn left at the stop sign onto third Avenue take a right at the next stop sign on Michigan and take your immediate left into the alley which is flanked by Stangel Accounting and Door County Vacuum.
See you soon!
