About this property

Madeline Island LAKESIDE Cabin on the Shore of Lake Superior - "BAYSIDE"

Our 2 Bedroom (Lakeside), knotty pine paneled cabin, sits so close to the water that you can hear the waves hitting the beach. Read a book in front of a crackling fire. Sit on the porch, or on the dock and watch sailboats glide by. Watch the water birds fish and hear loons call across the bay. Walk the beach. Relax and do what you like, it is all here on the Island!

Enjoy a scenic, relaxing drive to the Bayfield Peninsula and the Apostle Islands National Park. Just 220 miles from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, 1.5 hours drive from Duluth International Airport.

Madeline Island is located 9.3 miles by ferry boat, off Wisconsin's north most point; the Bayfield Peninsula.

Peaceful

The location to the lake can’t be beat. The waves crashing. My entire stay was an east wind constant waves. I saw the northern lights on my first night and an eclipse the next night. I’ll rent this one again and again.

A quiet little (comfortable) gem, right on the shore of Lake Superior.

This small house was perfect for my son and I. Quiet and right on the water. Nice steps to sandy beach. There is no TV (a good thing). It's right off the road, BUT there was maybe a car passing every few hours. Madeline IS is like going back a few decades. Calmer, no one is in a rush, except some who are just getting off the ferry. The owner live across the street. He checked on us on our arrival and the morning we were leaving. That was nice.

The house and property are well taken care of, beautiful beach and view.

This is a perfect place to get away from the busy work and school schedules. It allows you to just unplug all the electronics, slow down, enjoy each other's company and take in beauty of Lake Superior.

Idyllic location right on the water with private beach. Spotlessly clean modern cabin!

This cottage exceeded expectations! Located on the shores of Lake Superior, the cottage has a wonderful screen porch which overlooks the property's private sand beach and dock. The cottage itself was very clean with modern amenities and pleasing decor!

Idyllic getaway; wanted to stay forever!

This was the perfect getaway; I loved the crystal-clear water as far as my eyes could see, the sand, sky, sun, and flowers. Peaceful and private and undisturbed: heaven! Thanks for a wonderful place, Jim & Renee!

Bayside is a perfect little beach house!

Jim and Renee do an amazing job of keeping things simple, humble and clean! I rent this sunny little retreat as it's "almost off the grid" as far as my phone service goes as well as there is no TV which allows my family for the past decades have a much needed unplug!!!

Cabin at Big Bay

Jim was very considerate and took care of the small issues we had as well as making good recommendations. The cabin is a perfect size for 2-4 vacationers with beautiful access to the Lake and a short bike ride/drive to Town Park or Big Bay State Park for unforgetable beach walks and, yes, even swimming. We kayaked, hikes, biked, and even made the short trip via ferry on foot to dine and shop in Bayfield.

Just what we needed!

My husband and I needed a quiet get-a-way and this cottage was perfect! We sat in the enclosed porch overlooking the lake and had our morning coffee. You are right on the beach and the wavs lulled us to sleep each night. Thank you for such a relaxing experience!

Lovely Beachside Cottage!

The cottage was well equipped with thoughtful details, great maintenance, and very clean. It was appropriately cozy and feels very spacious with the vaulted ceiling. We loved the wood-burning fireplace, the porch with 180 degree views, the amazing dock, and the cabin's proximity to the water. Absolutely perfect for us! Enjoyed our weekend at the lake celebrating our 25th anniversary!

Superior Paradise

First time on the island for me and my grandma to celebrate her 90th birthday. Bayside, and the island, both delivered! Cabin was cozy, but still had everything we needed for a memorable vacation. Although my grandma was physically unable to take the stairs down to the beach, she was still able to enjoy the beautiful location thanks to all the lakeside windows! She didn’t want to leave when our trip was over. Thank you Bayside for fantastic experience.
