This is a very beautiful upscale condo. Decor modern, location good. Walked to the Lake area or when we drove we found parking. The host was very attentive with text communication. Beds were comfortable and shower pressure appropriate. Only stressor, TV complicated. Would recommend this excellent property.
Modern and clean. Wasn't aware that someone appeared to live in the lower level but wasn't had no concerns during the stay. Didn't catch that there wasn't a TV in the bedrooms and limited outlets but i had a brick with to charge the phone so it worked out.
Cozy feeling, very comfortable rooms, neat and organized kitchen and bathroom. In addition to the cruise rides, the spectacular view on the beach and the excellent food in the area, the stay in this beautiful house was the perfect complement to recreation and enjoyment.
This property is as lovely as it looks on line. Wonderfully furnished and equipped!
I would highly recommend this property to anyone! The location is so close to downtown Bayfield and Derel is so very helpful! Wonderful stay and vacation!
Property was great fora long weekend getaway to Apostle Islands. The house was conveniently located within walking distance to restaurants and the marina. Orchards where just a 5 minute drive and only 20 minute drive to Meyers beach for kayaking. The house was nicely accommodated. Comfortable beds and pillows. Would stay here again on the next trip to Apostle Islands.
The home was extremely clean which is a big thing for me! The owner responded immediately when texted. We walked everywhere we went from this location, it is great! (There are some hills involved) We will definitely stay again!
This is a great rental - well designed, full of surprising amenities, modern, clean, and comfortable.
The view over Bayfield is nice - you can see Lake Superior from the living room and back patio.
We rented this as a small getaway weekend - I took my parents for a nice weekend out, and this place definitely didn't disappoint. They appreciated the zero-entry shower, no stairs, and easy walk from the car to the bedrooms.
Overall, this is a great place to stay and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice getaway in Bayfield.
My husband and I loved our time in this property. It was very clean and welcoming. We loved that there was a kitchen…and it was already stocked with spices and everything we needed!!! The roses Darel sent us for our anniversary was a sweet and thoughtful surprise.
