There are 3 - 4 rental units, all with living & sleeping areas and kitchenettes, and views of the lake. The owners were gracious, helpful, and respectful of guests' privacy. We stayed in one of the two "annex" suites, and enjoyed coffee on the deck in the morning (and watching the moon rise in the evening), and reading at the picnic table along the small beachfront of the property. Great for a reasonably priced, quiet get-away where most of the noise came from the waves lapping on the beach, the wind (and windchimes), and birds.

We visited The Bayfield Inn while in town because we had heard it was one of the nicer dining spots…read morein Bayfield, and my mom and I were hoping for an elevated dinner experience by the water. The rooftop seating was the highlight -- beautiful views and a really nice atmosphere sitting outside overlooking the water. We ordered the steak frites to share. The steak itself was very good -- cooked perfectly and full of flavor. However, the presentation was very underwhelming. It was served as just a piece of steak on a plastic plate with no real plating or sides. Our fries were also removed as a side from our meal, thinking there was a miscommunication there with the kitchen. We also asked for an extra plate and silverware to share, and were given a paper plate and plastic utensils, which made it difficult to eat a steak comfortably and felt inconsistent with the expected level of dining. Just odd! Our server mentioned he was new, which we appreciated, and he did refill drinks and check in a few times. Overall, though, the service felt a bit flat and not especially engaging. At the end, the bill was around $75 for the steak frites plus a service charge, which we hadn't seen elsewhere in town. Between the pricing, service, and presentation, the experience didn't quite match expectations. Overall, the rooftop and steak were enjoyable, but the experience felt inconsistent.

The furniture in the front room of Maggie Suite is tired, small couch is actually a hide-and-bed. The bed was too hard for me, but it could be wonderful for you. For a 2 night stay, we were gifted 2 bottles of water in the refrigerator. The breakfast buffet was my biggest disappointment, for $240/night I was really looking forward to the breakfast and sadly really disappointed. It simply wasn't worth the price and I felt gypped. Again, for some this would probably be perfectly acceptable but for me it was not.

The room was fantastic, with a large tub, 3-sided fireplace and filled with good energy and aromas from the spa two floors below. I started reading, "The Devil in the White City" and "Lake Superior Magazine" by the fire. Because of the thinness of ice on Lake Superior in January, hiking to the ice caves along the lakeshore was impossible. Instead I picked up "A Voice Within" by photographer Craig Blacklock, and took the trip in my imagination.

Considering our hosts must have been tired after such a weekend invasion, they were wonderfully welcoming and accommodating. They were also non-intrusive and left us to come and go as we pleased. Our suite was delightful and comfortable. Breakfast was left on a tray outside our door by 7:30 each morning and it was delicious. Bayfield is an interesting, artsy town on the Lake Superior shore. The guest house is just a block or two away from the shops and harbor, albeit up a hill. Walking is completely doable if you are of average physical health. The only drawback is minor (to me), but was major to my husband, a Green Bay Packer fan. The guest house, and apparently much of Bayfield, subscribes to Minnesota-based cable TV. It didn't have much to offer, especially the Packer football game. Instead we and hundreds of others packed into the Creamery, a downtown tavern that apparently was the only venue carrying the game. All in all, a beautiful place to stay. Hope to come back again!

The bathroom door was spattered with something brown. The wallpaper, bathroom fixtures were very out of date (1980's?). The mattress has definitely seen better days, not replaced in recent history; it was very uncomfortable. Only 2 flat pillows in room. The sofa also was old and uncomfortable. TV didn't have many channels. There was no shampoo/conditioner in bathroom. The continental breakfast was adequate, but with no table in room to eat on, we didn't partake of much of it. The only time we saw or heard from the innkeepers was at check in and check out. Oh, there was a typed note asking how we intended to pay and if credit, schedule at time to meet the innkeeper in the living room downstairs. He never asked how our stay was. We have chosen to stay in B & B's many times, and have not seen the likes of this - ever. All in all, a very disappointing stay. We would recommend staying anywhere else.

We were greeted by an elderly couple (super sweet) that could not figure out how to enter the building - after helping them in and getting into our room we got a knock from the same couple not able to get into their room. We helped them contact support to get their code for their room which they were unaware they needed to fill out the forms prior to receive a code since they booked through a third party. It all worked out however it was unfortunate that the rooms can be that confusing for what seemed to be a slower pace area that does attract people ranging into elderly. I think it would've been nice to have someone more on hand for occasions like these - just so everyone is comfortable and confident they can get in and out of the place. The amenities were as described - a bed, small fridge, tub, shower, toilet, sink.

It's a woman-owned company & you can definitely tell because there are so many wonderful things that made this place from good to great! The sheets, robes & towels are all INCREDIBLY soft.
