NEW! "Spruce Retreat" is a beautiful and romantic hideway.

A brand-new renovation transformed this log home into an artistic, luxurious and beautiful hideaway, featuring a single very large open-plan space with cathedral ceiling,. There is a full kitchen with dining area, inviting gas fireplace-and-surround with large-screen Roku TV (with cable, Netflix, Hulu, HBO etc), ample and comfortable seating, and a King-sized bed with luxury linens. Modern creature comforts include remote-controlled fireplace, ceiling fan, electronically controlled heating and AC, and subtle lighting to help create memorable evenings. This romantic and fun space feels at once totally private, and elegantly spacious. An eclectic mix of furnishings and art-work throughout complements the rich colors of the log-beamed home, colors which were chosen to reflect the Nordic heritage of the local area. A large bathroom with a walk-in shower complements the main space. Through French doors you can pass from the kitchen area onto a 15' x 9' external deck that looks out towards the neighboring woods - ideal for sitting outside for breakfast looking for deer, or on restful Door County evenings. Three other large picture windows look out to the newly created raised rock-gardens, planted with flowering trees, native perennials and literally thousands of spring bulbs. While my primary aim was to create the ultimate romantic experience for a couple, the queen sofa bed can provide sleeping for two extra guests (suitable for children for instance)...although it should be understood that although the whole place is large and spacious, there are not separate bedrooms. I wanted to create a place where guests can really spread out and enjoy the feeling of freedom and space, not only while outdoors exploring Door County, but indoors too. N.B. As this is the very first season that the house has been available for rent there are no reviews (yet!). However, my two well-established vacation rentals nearby, also on the "Green Gables" property, have been give almost entirely 5-star ratings by more than 100 groups of guests. Please check out the PLUM RETREAT, which sleeps up to 6, and BIRCH REREAT which sleeps 2-4. There is also a SECOND brand NEW vacation home at Green Gables this year: the APPLE RETREAT, a beautiful, light-filled and spacious home with full kitchen, sleeping 2-4, great for small families or 1 or 2 couples. Please explore these to read guests' positive feedback:

Plum Retreat: www.vrbo.com/1656362 (Lots of great reviews)
Birch Retreat: www.vrbo.com/1656219 (Lots of great reviews)
Apple Retreat: www.vrbo.com/2724012 (This one, like SPRUCE, is new for 2022, so no reviews yet)

I hope you'll choose Green Gables either this year or in the future. If you love gardens and are looking to truly relax, you've found the right place! It is in a superb location from which to get around Door County!

We had the best fall getaway with my sister and daughters at Spruce Retreat. Cozy, quaint, quiet location close to beautiful Peninsula State Park. Spruce retreat has everything you need. We had as much fun staying in as we did going out. Highly recommend for a perfect stay!

Another wonderful stay in Door County
We enjoyed our stay at Green Gables. The property is well appointed, spacious, and very clean. We love the beautiful landscaping. How perfect it will be for weddings and family gatherings. Colin is a gracious host. We had a relaxing, very comfortable time. Would definitely stay here again and again.

Beautiful place, close to everything, wonderfully appointed
We had a wonderful stay at the Spruce. Like they always do, pictures just don't do Spruce justice. The photos of Spruce are great, but when you walk in the front door, its just better. Everything is labeled perfectly, nothing was needed for our stay of 4 nights. Colin thought of everything. Looking forward to when the outside landscaping is completed, it will look amazing. I would suggest a few lounge chairs for the new crushed limestone in the currebtly being-completed backyard landscaping. Loved the porch and rocking chairs, used then every day. Hoping to be back for another stay yet this year and definitely will be back next summer.
