Waterfront vacation rentals in Bayfield County

We had a very relaxing stay at the cabin right on Lake Superior. The location was perfect to visit nearby Bayfield. The unit had everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway. The host had amazing communication and we look forward to staying in one of their properties in Bayfield next summer.

Such a great location! We just visited Applefest and the Annex is only 11 minutes away. We absolutely loved walking down to the beach, it’s a little private walk down the hill to a secluded beach with beautiful rocks and sea glass. The Annex #1 was the perfect size for two people, and so clean. We will definitely be back next year!

An incredible space at the end of a private drive, overlooking the lake. The space was warm and welcoming, literally and figuratively! Loved the front sitting room with floor to ceiling windows to sit and sip coffee and enjoy the views. The proximity to the neighboring Houghton Falls preserve was enjoyed using the trail on the property. Peaceful, relaxing, made use of the large fire pit outdoors with the lake in the background. Close enough to town if you forget something and need to run in real quick, otherwise peaceful privacy to enjoy nature and the beautiful surroundings.

This place was awesome! The hosts were very responsive and prompt to answer questions and accommodated us last minute. The views of the lake are amazing and the sandy beach was so relaxing. This place is serine! This place has everything you need for amenities. Close proximity to everything and Bayfield was about a 5 min drive. Thank you so much for a wonderful visit! We will definitely be back.

My family and I were very happy with: the location, the great water view from the balcony, the attached bookstore (a must visit), everything you need in Bayfield being within walking distance (including the ferries to the Apostle Islands & the Saturday morning farmer's market), the long list of amenities in the apartment, the cleanliness of the apartment, easily accessible parking spaces, and the quick and thorough responses from the hosts. Some patrons at the bar next door were laughing & having fun a little loudly outside on Friday night when we were going to bed, but the sound machines that were available in each of the bedrooms easily took care of it for us. (Saturday night, the patrons were quiet, but we still enjoyed using the sound machines.) We needed help with the airbed and the hosts took care of it promptly. We would definitely stay here again!

Pearl and Jim are great hosts, very easygoing and always helpful. The apartment is the lower unit, exactly as described. From the great window in the main room to the wonderful deck, large bathroom, comfortable bedroom with plenty of closet and drawer space, everything worked well. The garden and lawn that lead down to a small private beach are beautifully landscaped. The apartment was spotless and comfortable.

The location was perfect for our trip and the space provided everything we needed.

We arrived at the house in sub zero temperatures and were very happy to be inside the house with the wonderful radiant heated floors. Warm and cozy! Comfortable beds and warm blankets made for restful nights. The view of the bay is beautiful. Moon rising over the horizon reflected on the ice . We heard Great Horned Owls hooting in the distance. Next visit we hope to come in the summer or fall to walk around more and see the lake. Thanks again!

We enjoyed our stay. The house was as described and perfect for our needs. Amanda checked in regularly and I have no doubt that she would have been responsive if we encountered any issues. We would definitely stay again! Thank you!

This is our second time staying here- once again an overall great experience. Cash is a helpful and communicative host. This place was perfect for ice fishing/snowshoeing and family time.

Staying at Jeff and Susan’s was as easy as it gets— smooth check-in, beautiful location with wildlife out the back door (deer routinely passing through the yard), timely responses to questions, and minimal checkout process. Plenty of spices and cookware to feel like a home away from home. Home was very clean and watching the sunset over the lake from the living room never got old. Will certainly be staying here again!

The retreat on the lake was a beautiful place to spend a few days. We were there in the winter, and it was a nice cozy atmosphere to be in. The lake is beautiful, and there are beautiful walking trails in the neighborhood. There is a nice little community beach which would be great in the summer. Ashley was a very helpful and responsive host. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay in Monica’s lake front home! Pre-arrival communication was so helpful for an easy check-in. The house was spotless, spacious, bed comfortable, good shower, views spectacular! We enjoyed playing the piano and spinning vinyl - an added bonus! The changing leaves were at their peak in northern WI during our stay. Bayfield is a charming town with the nicest people! Thanks for a fabulous stay!

Loved our stay at Josh’s cabin! Will definitely be coming back, thank you!

The modern lake house was an amazing experience. The beautiful surroundings and peaceful setting made it perfect for a weekend getaway. The house was very equipped with many modern conveniences and easy to feel right at home. The house was spotless and clean, the bedrooms super comfortable and the layout was great for a group stay. Peter was a friendly, generous and very communicative host. He had great suggestions and sent very helpful instructions for local spots or recreational ideas. I would definitely book a stay again. It was especially fantastic in October for fall colors!

We were so happy that we were able to book this place last minute. We loved the location....not too close to town but not too far. We were able to walk everywhere. The unit was exactly as described and the bed was very comfortable. I loved the book of recommendations. We hiked a few trails listed and went to a couple apple orchards and winery. We will definitely be back with our family next summer/fall

We’re in love with Bayfield! We have stayed at the Boatyard condos before. It was obvious that this condo was being renovated. Updated pictures or a mention would have been appreciated. We had no hot water initially, but a text to Erin immediately sent someone to solve that issue. The location is ideal including watching folks take a cold plunge on New Year’s Day! We’ll return soon.

Great spot, right in the middle of the downtown Bayfield Main Street area. Very walkable and easy to find. Perfect for a family of four.

The condo was very clean and the location was perfect. Beautiful deck to look out at the lake and relax. Very convenient to everything...we parked our car and it never moved until checkout. Matthew was very accommodating

We had a great stay. Plenty of space for us as a couple. Kitchen was well-furnished with all manner of kitchen implements. Plenty of dishes and cups/glasses.

Could not ask for a better place on the water.

Erin’s place was conveniently located downtown Bayfield. We enjoyed our stay during Apple fest weekend and especially appreciated being walking distance to all the festivities. It had a wonderful view of the lake. The space was clean and had all the amenities we needed.

It was an amazing place to stay, very close to the fun stuff. Erin has good recommendations
