Want to see the Northern Lights at peak fall colors in Door County this year? Me too!

Scientists say there will be the best Northern Lights display in 20 years and Rock Island State Park (directly across from Porte Haven!) is on the list of best places to view them. They say they'll be visible Sept/Oct/Nov. Peak fall colors in Door County are typically mid October.

Here's our current available weekends:
Sept 13 - 15
Oct 11 - 13
Oct 18 - 20
All of Nov currently open

The view from above of our cabin: Rowley’s A-frame.

One of the coolest features of this cabin is it’s location. It’s in Rowley’s Bay which is an inlet of Lake Michigan, so you have the benefit of inland lake calm waters with the epic views of Lake Michigan. Best of both worlds really.

Oh hey! Thought it would be a good time for some and share a little about the voice behind these little squares since there are a lot of new faces around here!

I'm Caitlyn and 1/2 of your hosts at DC Cabin Collective. If you've stayed with us, you likely consider my husband Jeremy a new friend - I swear he keeps in touch regularly with dozens of past guests from over the years. He's the day-to-day of the cabin operations and I get to (happily) live over here in the getting the word out about our special cabins department 😏

There’s no place on the planet I love more than Door County. My extended family has been vacationing in Door County for more than 100 years, and I grew up making some of my all-time most-cherished memories here.

And now it’s an absolute dream to get to share this place with others... to help you plan your vacations here, slow down for a little while, and experience time together that will be looked back on warmly for years to come.

The inspiration for our little cabin business all started with an RV trip to Yellowstone with our best friends. One day, we parked the RV at a river and spent the entire day there. Sunup to sundown, we explored the river, fished, ate when we got hungry, and napped when we got tired. There was no wifi or screens, no work or laundry to distract us—just the simplest of days.

This feeling is what I want to create for our guests at our cabins. Creating time to just be together in a beautiful space, with as few distractions as possible. I love the idea of curating a carefree, no-hassle, high-end experience for our guests, so they're free to simply show up and make memories with their families.

Thank you for following along and we'd love to host you sometime!

There is just something so special about spending a quiet night secluded in the woods. Watching the moon rise over the water from a cozy spot in the cabin with a good book and a glass of wine, listening to the gentle sounds of the waves crashing on the shore.

Remember to take a moment to slow down this winter season out of your normal surroundings spending time in nature because it can have a way of grounding us and reminding us of what truly matters.

SAVE THIS LIST: It’s definitely cozy up at the cabin and read a good book weather. I love a good book that takes place at a cabin or lake and I’m transitioning from love stories at the lake to thrillers and mysteries.

11 cabin-themed books to bring with you on your next getaway:

Secluded Cabin, Sleeps Six
The Guest List
A Flicker in the Dark
Every Summer After
One True Loves
Happy Place
Meet Me at the Lake
Big Summer
The Paper Palace
Where the Forest Meets the Stars
The House Across the Lake
Saturday Night at the Lakeside Supper Club

All of these cabin-themed books are scattered throughout our four cabins. Finding the best books to read while on vacation and then leaving them for all of you has become such a happy ritual for me (and justifies that throw a book in the cart every Target run habit, so thank you!)

Any I should add to my list?

Moonlight over Death’s Door.
View from cabin: Porte Haven
Photo + 5-star review from our guests Ron and Janet

“Our fourth time with Door County Cabin Collective and third time at Port Haven. A beautiful wooded and serene location makes us feel like we’re all alone at the top of the Door. Can’t get any closer to the water and the most outstanding view of the islands across Death’s Door. Watching the waves and the car ferry come and go is so relaxing. We appreciate their hardworking attention to detail. Our “home away from home” is spacious and clean, the kitchen/dining area is awesome, and a great gathering place. Huge windows! The master bedroom has great views and its own balcony. We’ve already scheduled for our next trip!”

The BEST Door County hike | save this post for your next trip to Door County!

My insider tips for my all-time favorite hike in Whitefish Dunes State Park: the hike up to Old Baldy the tallest dune with an observation tower with views of both Clark Lake and Lake Michigan.

I have so many memories here - as kids, we would walk over from our family’s original cottage on the lake (“the blue cottage”) and race up and down the dune.

During Covid when we lived at the cabin for a few months, we’d meet my dad there every single afternoon. It was such a welcomed ritual to get us out in nature and active every day.

From sand dunes to wildflowers, to views of both Clark Lake and Michigan at the top of the tower, to a trail to one of the best beaches... you’ll want to check this one out!

Here’s how you get there:
Head to Whitefish Dunes State Park and navigate to the Red Trail, there is parking at the trailhead. The hike is 2.4 miles long (there is also a shorter loop available if you don’t want to hike the entire thing). You’ll walk through the woods and into an open field where you’ll see the dune with a wooden path to take you to the observation tower where you’ll be rewarded with one of my favorite Door County views.

I’m curious, have you heard of Old Baldy before? Being such a favorite spot of my family, I’m not sure if it’s a hidden gem or well-known!

(v.) Art of getting work done in an inspiring and cozy place with the most serene surroundings away from it all (with reliable internet!). Coffee on the dock, fur baby at your feet fireside, and happy hour in Door County.

It has been at the cabin where my most inspired ideas come to me. There's just something about changing your environment and escaping the never-ending to-do list at home that frees my mind up to be more focused and think bigger.

All of our fall weekends are completely booked at the cabins but we do have a ton of mid-week availability – and it gave us an idea. What if we offered it at a *majorly* discounted rate to allow people to escape the hustle and work from the cabin?

Just think: the most serene surroundings away from it all (with reliable internet!). Happy hour or dinner at your favorite (less crowded) DoCo spots. Your fur-baby by your side.

Want to take advantage of this deal? Just head to our site, pick your date and cabin and enter the code: WORKFROMCABIN to receive 40% off your stay.
*Valid through Dec 1st
**only applicable for new bookings

A work-cation could be the cabin fever
cure you've been waiting for.

There are a lot of new faces around here because of our giveaway so we thought we'd introduce ourselves (scroll back one post if you haven't entered yet)! THANK YOU to all of you for spreading the word about our cabins, it means the world, truly.

Hi! We're the Jefferys. We love unplugged family time, the lake, Door County, and cabins... and so, out of those passions, this little cabin business of ours was born.

We believe in collecting memories, not things - and aim to create spaces where you and your loved ones will want to return to for years to come. It's our mission to take care of all the details and essentials, so you and your family (dogs, too!) can unplug, play, relax, and make life-lasting memories at the lake, year after year.

And, we're about to open our 2024 calendar for our 4 cabins in Door County and are counting down the days to see who will be visiting us next year! Are you on the list to be notified?

The 8 best Door County patios // Save this post to refer to next time you're planning a trip to DoCo!

I don’t know about you, but there’s simply nothing better than beautiful weather, a unique craft cocktail, my best friends, and a patio to sit on for hours. That’s the ingredients for a perfect afternoon for me, and these are the places in Door County to do it:

1 - Hatch Distilling. Their motto on their website that I love is “we are distillers, beekeepers, farmers, & foragers pushing the boundaries of what “craft” is”. Try a flight of their spirits or order a craft cocktail and get ready to waste the afternoon away.

2 - Roots. A new favorite spot that we’ll be going back to over and over again. The patio is the perfect place to relax and try some local beers (we recommend Sway crafted by a Door County brewer!) and you cannot leave without trying the lemon caesar salad, truffle chips or chocolate chip cookie dough balls.

3 - Mezzanine. This rooftop bar in Door County has all the right things: twinkly lights, water views and will even supply blankets if you get chilly.

4 - Pearl Wine Cottage. The perfect place for a pre-dinner drink if you're heading to the famous Trixies for dinner. Our favorite: the Rose flight and chatting with the lovely

5 - Barringers. This makes the list because they serve up a mean "Midwest Mule" and. have an indoor/outdoor bar and fireplace. Also makes our fav dinner spots list.

6 - Stubbur Beer Garden. For when the afternoon turns into evening and you're looking for a live music spot - this is it!

7 - Door County Brewing. Board games, food trucks, live music and local brews. Need we say more?

8 - Sway Brewing + Blending. Tucked away on. aside street in Baileys Harbor, your friends will thank you for finding this hidden gem. Local brewer and tacos by Taqueria la Brisita next door. Yum.

Tell us, which is your favorite? Did we miss any?
