About this property

The Acorn of Little Sand Bay Secluded, Wooded, and Dog Friendly!

Welcome to The Acorn!
This very peaceful Aframe cabin has a full-size kitchen with newer appliances, modern-rustic bathroom with a walk-in shower, a loft area with a smart tv and comfy king size bed. There is also a new gel memory foam king size bed and a smart tv on the main level.
This cabin can now sleep 4 guests. There is an additional fee per guest/per night over 2 guests.
It is located on the top of the Bayfield peninsula, less than a mile from beautiful Little Sand Bay beach on Lake Superior, and approx 12 minutes from Bayfield.
There are gorgeous hiking trails, such a Frog Bay Tribal National Park, located within minutes from the cabin. There are also marked walking trails directly on the property itself.
The cabin has a very efficient woodstove, which is the primary heat source, but it also has a minisplit for heat and air, if necessary.

I can’t say enough how great this cabin is. The location is perfectly secluded. The inside is beautiful and SO comfortable. (I’m ordering the mattress they have on the main floor…it was wonderful!) Communication was super easy. I would definitely go back.

This place was such a gem! A private, little luxury escape in the woods. This cabin has everything you need and is extremely clean and modern. The Wood stove made it very cozy. It's easy to get to, Kristin is a fabulous host with great communication, the place is well stocked and spacious. It was a romantic get away for us, but could be a fun girls trip or family place too! We absolutely love it and want to come back in the summer too.
A beautiful winter wonderland and close to hiking, Apostle Island and Bayfield. Great location!

This is such a cute cabin! Kristin has thought of EVERYTHING to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. The cabin is very well appointed with everything you need. The stairs to the loft are a little steep, our dog figured out sleeping close to the fire was more cozy than upstairs with us anyway! It wouldn't matter what time of year you visited this would make a great base for exploring a beautiful area. Thanks Kristin we hope to be back someday!

Great Little A-Frame

Had a great stay at the property. It’s tucked back in a nice quiet location near Bayfield. All expected amenities (and more), the furnishing gave the cabin a very premium feel. It was a very comfortable and cozy place to stay for the weekend. Kristen was a very communicative and great host as well. I would definitely recommend booking a stay.

Mini-Moon

My wife and I stayed here for a few days for our mini-moon. It was the perfect location from town. Plenty of cute things to do nearby, good hiking, and a great little oasis to start and end the day! The host did a great job of checking in throughout the trip and having everything set up when we arrived. I'd do it all over again!
