Silo Guest House: Peninsula Parkside Retreat

Welcome to the Silo Guest House hosted by Simple Life Rentals, a truly unique and historic retreat offering unparalleled sunset views and a glimpse into Door County's past. This unique space boasts 17 windows, allowing you to soak in the beauty of the surrounding landscape from the 4th floor living area. Floors 2, 3, and 4 have their own balconies to enjoy the beautiful vistas.

The Silo Guest House is rich in history, once part of a World War II POW camp. Many tales are told of visitors encountering prisoners and guards, adding an extra layer of intrigue to your stay. It's the only livable silo in Door County, offering a truly unique accommodation experience. Located on a quiet dead-end street at the entrance to Peninsula State Park, you'll have easy access to a variety of outdoor activities including biking, hiking, golfing, and swimming.

The Silo Guest House spans four floors, connected by a common stairway, making it ideal for adults seeking a unique retreat. The home offers 2 bedrooms (on two different floors), 1.5 bathrooms and can sleep 6 guests comfortably.
1st: half bath and kitchen
2nd: bedroom 1
3rd: bedroom 2 and full bathroom
4th: living room
Step outside and you'll find a firepit with six chairs, perfect for gathering around and sharing stories under the starry sky. Fire up the charcoal grill or relax at the patio table with four chairs for outdoor dining and activities.

Experience the magic of Door County from the unforgettable vantage point of the Silo Guest House. Consider the neighboring property “Fish Creek Farmhouse” which is connected to the Silo by a closed off breezeway, to rent both units for larger groups!
