Picture this: fresh, powdery snow stretching out beneath tall pines dusted with icy crystals. The air is crisp and pure, carrying just a hint of pine and wood smoke. At the Rushes Resort, nestled on the quiet shores of Kangaroo Lake, you can trade your busy world for this serene winter wonderland and own it for just $1,000.
Step inside your spacious 1,400 sq. ft. two-bedroom villa, where rustic elegance meets cozy comfort. Your eyes are immediately drawn to the stunning Door County fieldstone fireplace. The warm flames flickering and the scent of burning wood mingles with the crisp air outside, inviting you to curl up with a soft blanket and a book.
The master bedroom suite is a sanctuary of warmth, where thick blankets and plush pillows promise a restful night’s sleep. Large windows frame breathtaking views of snow-covered trees, their branches heavy with fresh powder, sparkling like crystals in the soft morning light. The guest bedroom offers cozy twin beds perfect for family or friends to share stories of the day’s adventures.
In your fully furnished kitchen, the aroma of fresh coffee fills the air, while outside on your private deck, a gas grill stands ready. It’s the perfect spot for cooking up Waseda Farm’s Meat (our neighbor) enjoying a beverage and reminiscing.
Your one-stall garage keeps your vehicle protected, allowing for effortless arrival and departure, no matter what the weather.
Beyond your doorstep, explore 143 acres of pristine wilderness preserve, perfect in every season. Glide silently on snowshoes through powdery trails lined with trees with their branches covered in snow. Follow winding paths along the frozen lakeshore where the ice sparkles like glass. Breathe in the silence broken only by the crunch of snow and the distant call of winter birds.
Return to the Rushes to thaw and unwind in our indoor heated pool, soak aching muscles in the hot tub, or breathe deeply in the fragrant warmth of the sauna. These amenities bring the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation to your winter retreat.
As dusk settles, gather with loved ones around a roaring fire pit lakeside, where flames leap and crackle, casting a warm glow on flushed cheeks and smiling faces. Wrap yourself in a thick blanket, sip on hot cocoa or spiced cider, and let the peaceful stillness of the Rushes help you relax, unwind and unplug from the real world.
This isn’t just a winter vacation, it’s an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and immerse yourself in the quiet, wild beauty of Door County’s most magical season. And for just $1,000, you can call this your own! A place to return to year after year, where the cold is crisp, the nights are cozy, and the memories are endless.
