Learn more about Bayfield

Facing Lake Superior's crystalline waters, this tiny Wisconsin city serves as gateway to the Apostle Islands' dramatic sea caves and historic lighthouses. Downtown's charming shops occupy former homes of lumber barons and fishing captains. The Heritage Museum chronicles the transformation from industrial port to tourist haven. Board the Madeline Island Ferry to visit the archipelago's only inhabited island. Summer brings abundant gardens, while winter creates magical ice caves accessible when the lake freezes. Apostle Islands Cruises offers narrated tours featuring shipwreck tales. After exploring, enjoy fresh-caught whitefish at waterfront restaurants where locals debate which orchard produces the region's finest apples.

Great Water Inn

Great Water Inn

10/10 Excellent
"It's all about the location! Absolutely perfect area. Walking distance to all shops, restaurants and activities. It's an older home and we had a small room. Worked well for us and for the amount of time that you're actually in the room. A little cozy at times but we managed. Would recommend to friends who like to explore."
