We have a three night minimum for all stays outside of peak season.  Peak season (All of July and the first half of August) stays are a minimum of 7 nights in most cases.  There are a few exceptions where we have five or six night stays during peak.  And in even rarer instances we have two and three night reservations available when there are gaps between longer guest stays.  We advertise short stay availability on our Facebook page and these reservations are first come, first serve.  We take reservations over the phone and via email (preferred).  For those that like to make reservations on their own, we offer an online reservation portal through this website.  ALL reservations require a deposit.  To make a reservation, call:  920.559.2565 (talk only) or 920.559.2517 (text first – will call you back) or email: cottages@ephraimvillagecottages.com

All reservations required a 50% deposit.  The deposit is 50% of the subtotal.  The subtotal is the cost of the reservation (room, dog lodging fee, and cleaning fee if applicable) before taxes. Deposit is due within 2 weeks after the reservation is made.  Reservations made via phone or via email require a check or money order deposit sent to: Ephraim Village Cottages, PO Box 173, Ephraim, WI 54211 (we are not responsible for deposits mailed to our physical address). Reservations made via the online reservation portal also require a deposit which is charged at the time the reservation is made.  The balance for all stays is due upon arrival via cash or check (preferred) or via credit card.  All reservations must have a credit card on file.

You will receive a lot of communication from us.  A confirmation is sent immediately after making a reservation.  Please read this confirmation.  There is a lot of very important information contained in it.  Upon receipt of the deposit, an updated confirmation is sent to reflect the amount sent.   A week prior to the start of the reservation, we send out a reminder that you are coming to Door County for vacation and what you need to bring.  A few days prior to arrival you get a final reminder of what to bring and what we provide as well as well wishes for your trip.
