From the reviews

I’ve stayed at the Beachfront Inn a few times over the last several years and each time it only grows my love for it. It truly is a beautiful little gem as others have stated. This last visit we brought our dogs with for the first time and it was such a perfect experience.

★★★★★ — Kelly, May 2025

Great place to stay. Located right on the water. We had room 204 and it had a fantastic view! It was a bit chilly otherwise we could have left the window open to hear the water lapping against the shore. The shower water had a slight iron smell, but that's to be expected when that close to the water.

★★★★★ — Kathy, Oct 2025

The Beachfront is one of the best hotels in DoCo. The owners are so accommodating and friendly. Fresh coffee and donuts every morning. Clean rooms and grounds. Super fun pool and atmosphere. We love staying here anytime we visit Door County.

Getting married at Beachfront Inn Baileys Harbor

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
