We loved everything about our stay here - great location to explore Door Cty., lovely view of Eagle Bay, beautiful, squeaky clean inn with pretty decor & fabulous gardens. Stayed in Trillium Suite - to die for! Beautiful, spacious, 2 decks!, lovely super comfy king bed, & a huge whirlpool facing the bay. Hosts are friendly, professional, & provide excellent food.

My wife and i just returned from our 4th stay at the lovely Hillside Inn in Ephraim in just over a year. it goes without saying that we just love the Inn, with its picturesque setting right across from beautiful Eagle Harbor.

The sunsets, which you can view from either your room's deck or the Inn's 100+ foot long deck furnished with comfortable chairs, lounges, swings and tables, are like seeing a picture postcard shot for a glamorous travel magazine.

While at the Inn i read in the Chicago Tribune (the inn keepers provide copies of the Tribune, USA Today, the New York Times and a Wisconsin paper as well) that the Ritz Carleton had just raised their daily room rate to $795.00. Well, for those folks who can afford and expect "Ritz" quality and service, come to the Hillside Inn in Ephraim. you won't be disappointed.

And for those of us who are not necessarily "Ritz" customers you too should vacation at the Hillside Inn because you'll have a room that's too beautiful for words. Spic-and-span clean, large, airy, elegantly furnished and comfortable with the most comfy bed you've ever slept in (i'm almost always sleep deprived but i slept like a baby in our bed at the Inn) with all imported linens and toiletries that would do the finest european hotel proud. Plus! Top-of-the-line Sony TVs and DVD players with a huge library of films to choose from.

Best of all you don't pay "Ritz" prices at the Hillside Inn. frankly, I've been traveling for many years and this Inn is the best vacation value i've ever experienced.

Everything at the Hillside Inn is first class. From the moment you see the Inn, as you drive up 42, this beautiful edifice, with its lush landscaping just looks special. and when you walk in the door the furnishings whisper to you that you've come to the right place and that you're going to enjoy comforts like no other inn can deliver.

I've left the best for last. The Inn's owners, Clare and Jim Webb, are just the nicest, sweetest people you'll ever meet. They really understand and deliver customer service, a rare commodity these days. You'll feel, upon first meeting them, that you're being greeted, not by inn-keepers, but by old and dear friends.

So, my fellow vacationers, take it from someone who is an unbelieveably picky person that if you want to feel pampered by your surroundings and you don't want to pay "Ritz" prices stay at the Hillside Inn in Ephraim. You won't regret it.

My husband and I spent Memorial Day weekend at the Hillside Inn of Ephraim and we are ready to move in! Our stay in the Forget-Me-Not suite, overlooking the budding garden out back, was absolutely wonderful. We felt truly pampered by the luxurious bedding, gas fireplace and spacious shower with double showerhead. Not to mention the delicious breakfasts prepared each morning by innkeepers Jim and Clare Webb and the mouth-watering homemade cookies served hot from the oven each afternoon, which we found ourselves eagerly anticipating. While this was our first trip to Door County, the insightful suggestions offered by the Webbs allowed us to enjoy fine dining experiences and exciting excursions. Needless to say, we will definitely return to the Hillside Inn of Ephraim.

This Inn has everything. Beautiful room, gorgeous grounds, wonderful breakfast, charming hosts.
