I contacted them to inquire about booking 2 rooms for 2 nights. I let them know that one room would be for my parents, and one room would be for us and our 2 year old. Their response was exactly this: Dear XXXX, Our guestrooms each accommodate just two people. The Ephraim Inn is an adult experience. Thank you for... More

Tim greeted us right away and was a friendly, helpful host. The Inn was comfortable and very inviting. Great location and wonderful, homemade granola for breakfast. The problem was that it was "run by the book". Perhaps they have had problems in the past and needed things tightened down but the evening staff in particular seemed a bit too rigid.... More

We were in Door County Sept 17th-18th and sorta winged it. We have stayed at the Ephraim Inn in the past and have always enjoyed it so we thought we would take a chance and get a room there for the night. The sign that usually says "Vacancy" or "No Vacancy" instead said "Perhaps". We stopped in and asked for... More

Well we planned late and I, for some reason, never found the Trip Advisor reviews (What sort of bad karma do I have to live down?) I talked to Tim and he had one room left with a water view. And yes there is breakfast. And a verandah to watch sunsets. My sweetie and I discussed it and having been... More

DEFINITELY READ THIS: Our trip started out pretty good. But there is something seriously wrong with the owner Nancy. She was nasty, mean, and cold. We thought check out was noon (actually 11 am as "clearly" indicated on the fuzzy-crappy-chalk board that looks like it was written on 10 years ago) and we were walked in on around 11:30 am... More

A B&B should pride itself on a great breakfast and this breakfast is awful. Sickly sweet crappy granola and nothing fresh. Bad, bad food. Avoid! More

Awful breakfast. A good B&B should pride itself on a full breakfast. This is worse than you'd expect from some roadside Motel 6. Just plain cheap and bad. Nothing special at all about this place. Do not come here. More

This was our first trip to Door County. We specifically chose to go there in mid September, which is a little slower time. The Ephraim Inn was receommended to us by some friends who have been staying there annually for a number of years. They spoke very highly of the inn and the owners, Tim and Nancy. It is located...

We love the Ephraim Inn! We have been staying with Tim and his wife for 15 years. We stayed on our 1st and 3rd anniversary, and have been coming every since. We love the quiet atmosphere, you don't have to worry about any crazyness going on all evening. We love the friendliness of the owners, staff and people who tend... More

I can't believe people did not like this place. It's not a 5 star hotel, it's a quaint B&B right in the middle of town. Breakfast was good, room was nice / clean. Staff was unbelievably friendly- we rode our bikes up to Washington Island and the owner saw us on the way home, pulled over and wanted to know... More
