Quick getaway

We had a great time. The only feedback I would offer is the heater is loud and sounded like a car was outside when it would turn on.

Perfect Getaway Stay

The cabin was absolutely stunning and smelled brand new. The view of raspberry island was amazing and it was the perfect distance from town. It has so many amenities you need bring very little. It was a wonderful long weekend!

Breathtaking View

The view from the cabin overlooking the Apostle Islands was beautiful. The cabin was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The country setting was exactly what we wanted with just a short drive to explore Bayfield.

Quiet and beautiful

Nice property just out of the hustle and bustle of summer Bayfield. Close to several beautiful beaches. You could sit out on the patio in your pajamas in the morning without worry. A beautiful view of Raspberry island in the distance while we sat by the fire. The cabin was impeccable and had all the amenities of home.

Great place to stay

The property is great for those looking for a cabin feel, while not minding a short drive to their destinations. It took about 20 min to get to town, while being close to many hiking areas. The view is nice as there were not many cars traveling the near-by road. There is everything you might need in the kitched. The bedroom is away from the road so didn't hear hardly any road noise while sleeping. The batroom is very spacious with room to move around after showering. The patio was nice to relaxe on and the fire pit was a good distance from the building.

Great getaway!!

Prefect weekend getaway. Nice would have been nice if the washer and dryer were in place. But other then that great. Also would have been nice if there was a local trials to met up with other trails. Or even a map of all the trails around the properties. Great weekend for a couple from Omaha NE.
