StayReadyDoor County
Service area

One county. Three zones. A hard cap on each.

StayReady serves Door County only. Not the Fox Valley, not the lakeshore, not "the region." A quarterly promise is a driving-distance promise, and we intend to keep it.

Zones

Why we cap them

Every property in a zone has to be reachable within the same two-week service window — including the week when the weather turns and three of them need attention on the same morning. That math sets the cap, not a marketing plan.

Zone one

Southern Door

Sturgeon Bay, Little Sturgeon, Sawyer, Nasewaupee, Clay Banks, Brussels, Forestville, Maplewood, Institute, Sevastopol.

Founding intake: open.

Zone two

Central Door

Egg Harbor, Fish Creek, Juddville, Carlsville, Jacksonport, and the corridor between.

Founding intake: open.

Zone three

Northern Door

Ephraim, Sister Bay, Baileys Harbor, Ellison Bay, Rowleys Bay, Gills Rock, Northport, Washington Island.

Founding intake: limited. Island properties are quoted individually for ferry scheduling.

Don't see your town? Door County has more unincorporated shoreline than town names. Ask — if you're in the county, we'll tell you plainly whether we can serve you on schedule.

Intake windows, not a waitlist

We open new-property intake in defined windows — before the spring season and again after peak — rather than accepting properties continuously.

Onboarding a property properly takes a full Baseline Readiness Assessment, and those can't be squeezed between quarterly visits in July without shortchanging someone. So they aren't.

If a zone is full when you reach out, we'll say so and tell you the date of the next window. We won't take a deposit to hold a spot we can't service.

Current status

Founding cohort: ten founding spots across all three zones — the Baseline Readiness Assessment fee is waived on commitment and applied to the first year. Priority goes to owner-managed properties and to owners with more than one property in the same zone.
