Welcome to Snug Life, a cozy three-bedroom, 1.5-bath cabin right on the shore of Lake Michigan in Sturgeon Bay. Renovated by owners Dana and Adam with a one-of-a-kind blend of high-end finishes and thrift-store finds, it pairs rustic and modern style. Wake to the sound of the waves, swim right out front, warm up in the wood-fired barrel sauna, spin a record, and unwind by the gas fireplace. Downtown Sturgeon Bay is a 10-minute drive.

All my girlfriends love the getaway! We enjoyed the peace and quiet
Rob & Suzie have curated a lovely space and great experience! Besides being right by the water and surrounded by beautiful trees, it also has a chill, cozy vibe inside. Beds were comfy and a gas stove kept things warm when it got chilly. We also LOVED the sauna and fire pit. This place is a gem!
We loved our stay at Rob & Suzie’s cabin! The location is amazing, steps away from the beach! We especially enjoyed the sauna, outdoor shower, fireplace, cleanliness and proximity to all that Door County has to offer. Our kids loved throwing rocks and finding treasures on the beach. Would definitely book again!
Loved the view. It was very peaceful and not far from downtown Sturgeon Bay. Seen deer, and wild turkeys. Plenty to see and do.
The house location is perfect if you're looking for a getaway on the lake. The house itself is very cozy and spacious for 4 guests. Online communication was very responsive. Small signs in the house were helpful as well. Would definitely stay here again.
This was the perfect place for our vacation. The house sits right on Lake Michigan, the views were great. We enjoyed the house, the fire pit and the quiet surroundings. I would definitely recommend this place.
Amazing spot! The hosts have done an amazing job getting the place prepared for us on our stay. The home is cute and cozy. Our friend group had an amazing time here and will def be back
We had an amazing stay at Snuglife cottage. The location is very peaceful and quiet - loved being right on the lake. Inside is nicely decorated and very clean. We enjoyed the record player! Communication was just right and very responsive. Thanks for hosting us- we hope to return someday!
