Breakfast was hit or miss depending on what you ordered. The eggs in my eggs benedict were overdone, which was a bummer. Prices are high, but that is expected of Door County. The Inn itself could really use an update. It's stuck in the 90s, and not in a charming way. Everyone who worked there was nice. I think we'd return to have dinner, but I wouldn't stay here again (despite the really good cookies you get).

Started with the cheese plate and very much enjoyed the selection. I wish they would have provided more bread or crackers but that is because I'm a carb lover. Additionally, we had to clarify what one of the items on the cheese plate was because it tasted like alcohol to my husband. Looked like olives or cherries. It was indeed a type of cherry and had alcohol. I was grateful we had asked before trying myself at 8 months pregnant. My husband got the pressed 1/2 chicken and we both loved it. It had an incredible depth of flavor, great seasoning. I got the braised short ribs and enjoyed these as well. However, I wished they had been served with mashed potatoes instead of what I believe were grits. We ended our meal with the flourless chocolate cake which was the perfect cherry on top. Caramel spoons with popped amaranth on top were served with our check. Nice touch! Cozy atmosphere, nice fire crackling and friendly servers. What more can we ask for?

The decor throughout the house is gorgeous and every room is very unique, so there's a nice variety to pick from all of the photos when booking online. We had the Jessie and it was such a treat having both a fireplace and jacuzzi in the room! The staff were lovely and fun to chat with, as well as hear more home history. The food was fresh and delicious-there was no doubt about who was making it because it was done in the same room. The Inn is right in the bustle of town so its easy to walk for shopping, different restaurants, going to the water (etc) but you never hear any noise inside of our room. Thorpe House is reasonably priced if you're celebrating something like we were. It was like stepping back in time but nothing felt dated. They fill up really quickly so get a room booked as soon as you know when your trip is! We will absolutely come back the next time we're in the area!

Our stay at Thorp House Inn & Cottages was nothing short of miserable. The room was freezing…read morebecause the bathroom heater didn't work in the middle of winter, which made the entire space uncomfortable from the moment we arrived. The jacuzzi tub -- one of the reasons we booked -- was filthy, clearly not cleaned properly before our stay. We also paid for a horse‑drawn carriage ride, which was canceled due to weather. That part was understandable. What wasn't understandable was the complete lack of communication about the replacement trolley ride being one‑way only. We were dropped off and left to walk back to the B&B in bitter cold temperatures with no warning. Breakfast was another disappointment. What was served tasted reheated and stale, like it had been sitting around far too long. And the truffles we ordered -- which should have been a special touch -- were stored in the laundry room and all tasted like detergent. For the price and reputation, we expected a warm, welcoming, and well‑run experience. Instead, we left cold, frustrated, and extremely let down. We won't be returning.

This trip in 2024 we picked Homestead Suites and couldn't be happier. The place is spotless! We had a fireplace (although it was too warm out to use) and great place on the first floor. We used the outdoor pool daily and also their bike locker room. I brought my Trek bike and did a daily ride in Peninsula State Park - which is right next door. This was also only a 10 minute walk to downtown Fish Creek. We'll be back!

She gave us good recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area. The grounds are very well kept and every cabin has a view of the lake. We stayed 4 nights in September in cabin #4; the a view from the living room is included. Try Sister Bay Bowl for a wonderful fish dinner and be sure to climb the tower in Peninsula State Park. The tower was recently rebuilt and includes a ramp to accommodate strollers and wheelchairs. The White Gull Inn, just down the street, has won awards for their stuffed french toast. The Cottages are in the heart of Fish Creek so walking to your favorite destination is very convenient.

This place was a miss for us. Similar review to what Gail H. wrote…read more The place was very tiny, and had I known the motel rooms were this small, I would have chosen another room or booked elsewhere. The pictures posted online consist of just three of them, and I didn't get a feel for how small the place really was from those photos. The shower was so small it was frustrating to use. I'm not a big guy by any means, tall or wide. We didn't have any issues with the noise from screen doors or similar, likely because of when we were actually there and it was not super busy. It's nice to get a parking space that's pretty much guaranteed for your stay, and there are plenty of nice places to walk in the area. From their pictures, it would appear that their other areas are bigger. Personally, I wouldn't stay in a motel room here again. When we were on our last day and preparing to leave, room service took all of the clean sheets and towels and placed them on the dirty outside chair for over an hour. In my book, it's not acceptable at all. Having the expectation of clean sheets going on a bed without them sitting outside on a dirty chair beforehand seems obvious.

They gave me a key with a huge wooden keychain so it would be hard to lose the key. Made it hard to walk around with. Later on after I was getting settled I went back down to the desk to ask 2 simple questions and the person at the desk didn't know the answers to my questions which was a little weird. Maybe a new staff member for the summer. The room had that quaint, countryside feel. It does have a musky scent when you first walk into the room. Once you're in there for a couple of mins you don't notice it anymore. Everything was very clean with the exception of the tub in the bathroom that had some hairs left behind by the former guest and some microscopic bugs by the sink. It was great having a full fridge and microwave which I used both. No stove or oven so keep that in mind. The temp in the room was great and can be changed whenever you want. The bathroom has small vials of shampoo, conditioner, lotion and bath/body gel - keep that in mind cause I'm always used to hotels having a huge refillable container of all those products. The TV is a regular tv with local and national channels. No logging into different streaming platforms if that's your thing. The Pool - spent a little amount of time there. The temp of the heated pool was great. Towels are available at the pool. The recliners aren't the most comfortable for a position to read but I made do. Breakfast - I went to the little nook in the morning for breakfast but only got a coffee and hard boiled eggs once. They had cereal, and some other items. I'm not much of a breakfast person. Parking - lots of parking. You'll register your car with the front desk. The only comment on this is that they need desperately to redo the lines in the parking lot cause it was hard to tell if they were specific spaces at all. Location - I think the location is perfect to hop down to Fish Creek or another neighboring bay city. It was central to everything I felt and Fish Creek ended up being one of my fav places to hang out and walk around. So many shops and restaurants.
