We loved our stay! Well stocked, quiet, comfortable, and close to all we wanted to do for our long weekend. You will not be disappointed if you decide to visit!We arrived to some beeping in the cottage and discovered the CO2 detector was at the end of its life. I reached out to the host, Chris, and he went above and beyond to get us a replacement unit as quick as he could. Very pleased and impressed by his responsiveness. He was a pleasure to work with and made sure we had a great stay!With the quality of the cottage and the host, we will definitely return in the future.
Check in and check out were super easy. Very accommodating with nice appliances and a clean space. We loved the little notes placed around the house that made things easy to understand and operate.
The cabin is extremely clean and well organized with anything you can think of. It's located really close to town, but just outside, so you have peace and quiet. The hosts are very responsive and it made for a perfect trip.
This cabin is beautiful and the perfect location just minutes from Bayfield yet secluded. Super clean, the views from the windows/deck are amazing and they had everything we needed!
The Bayfield Fruit Loop Retreat exceeded our expectations. The Main Lodge is lovely and perfect was a perfect location to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
We absolutely LOVED the main cottage! Just the right size. Wonderful atmosphere with all the amenities that we needed, and more. We felt right at home!
Wonderful cottage! Clean, modern, and well stocked!

This cottage was amazing. It had just about everything you needed. The view outside was beautiful. I felt I was in paradise!! I was wishing I could live there. Highly recommend staying here!
We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this home. It's in a great location outside town but only a 5 minute drive into Bayfield. The home is clean and cozy, with a wonderful deck to relax and has everything you need in the well stocked kitchen. We will definetly be back and are already looking forward to next year.
Our experience could not have been more enjoyable! The cottage was clean, cozy, and organized. We loved the cabin feel away from town, which is only a short distance away. If we come back to Bayfield, we would stay here again in a heartbeat!!
