Great location in Sister Bay. Family owned and operated- friendly, very helpful and clean. Spent a recent weekend and felt welcome and very relaxed. Outdoor hot tub a hit with family members. Lots of singing birds and just right for a quiet weekend away. Nice location close to shopping, local attractions and churches too. Some rooms have a shower/hot tub... More

Visited Door County for a nice fall girls' weekend, and stayed at the Coachlite Inn. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. Thank you for introducing us to Julie's. This is the perfect place...it's not too far from Fish Creek and it's very close to downtown Sister Bay. The rooms were very comfortable and spacious. The complimentary breakfast... More

Visited for a quick fall weekend to Door County. It's less than a mile from downtown Sister Bay, and not too far from Fish Creek. The outdoor hot tub was great in the cold weather, and the breakfast offerings in the AM made it easy to start our days. The rooms were nice and spacious too.

The owners and staff were very friendly and always helpful. Grounds were well kept. Especially nice was the Private Ponds Suite which was very spacious, had a comfortable sofa, and a fantastic gas fireplace that created both warmth and "romantic" evening atmosphere. Outside the suite was a very pretty pond and forest area frequented by deer. The breakfast was simple,... More

Recently stayed at Coachlite Inn. We stayed in the Private Pond Suite which was more room than two ladies needed but it was all that was available. In addition it is isolated from the main hotel area, down the hill and has its own driveway and parking area. Staff was very friendly and accomodating however we weren't happy about the... More

Thanks a lot for taking your time to give us feedback. While we appreciate all of your comments, we are sorry that you were not happy with the housekeeping. Typically, we get very positive feedback regarding cleanliness. After our housekeepers clean each day my husband or I inspect each room. While it is true that we do not do dishes... More

Traveling through Door County, we were planning to spend the night somewhere in Sister Bay. We did not book ahead (not a good move as this was prime fall color plus festivals) and began to worry as we drove through each harbor town with "no vacancy" signs everywhere. Cell phone service was iffy at best, so I was not able... More

One night stay in a queen double. Pretty roomy, very clean. Right off 42, but behind some trees, so looks secluded when you're there. Older kids tried out the outdoor hot tub and they had a campfire going also. Rooms are in two separate two story buildings, each room has own entry door. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Would...

We recently stumbled upon at the Coachlite Inn when searching for last minute accommodations in the popular Door County. It is very affordable for families or couples seeking to enjoy the beauty of the area. The accommodations were modest and if you intend to spend most of your time sightseeing, they will suffice. Pluses include a very informative staff, cleanliness... More
