Stayed in room 6. This place is awesome. Awesome view. They have bikes, kayaks, stand up paddle boards. Free breakfast. Free snacks all the time. The view from top balcony room 6 or 7 is priceless.

Choosing and receiving the breakfast offered, was very straight forward and lovely. We can...See More

My wife and I had a terrific stay at the Blacksmith Inn, and we would definitely recommend it to others. We found both the Inn and Baileys Harbor to be charming and quiet, while also being a central location to access everything Door County has to offer. The service from the staff was consistently exceptional.
