Apostle Is.'s gateway/next scenic marinas/fireplace/jacuzzi/corner w 4 windows
I call it a 'Honeymoon' condo due to the feel to me with the fireplace and jet tub. It is simple with everything you need if you are not planning to need a stove. We offer an efficiency kitchenette, see amenities.
Our 2nd floor ( stairs only ) condo includes lots of natural light being a corner unit with 4 windows on 3 of 4 walls. This provides an airy feeling and the option for lots of fresh air in our condo including cross breeze.
Our property is tucked in the woods just down the road ( a stones throw or a short block) from the Port Superior marina which provides the pool and a gorgeous view of Chequamegon Bay of Lake Superior which is right at the entrance of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore.
This unit is perfect for a romantic getaway which we have decorated with a nautical feel. You will find a variety of options for outdoor enthusiasts
In the photos, I provide a photo of the lake. This is a lake view from Port Superior Marina which is next door. This is not a view from our condo. Our condo is tucked in a heavily wooded area 3 miles S of downtown Bayfield. We are near ( near defined as next door up to 2 miles ) the following : Adventure Club Brewery, mt biking trails, Brownstone hiking trail, downhill ski lifts, Big Top music venue, golf course, Big Top shuttle pickup, Portside marina, Portside restaurant, & Pikes Bay marina.
There a variety of inside tourist options as well such as shopping, museums, ferry to Madeline island, island tours, kayak tours, breweries & much more. Enjoy all the beauty of Bayfield Wi, on Lake Superior. This is a charming town, which was rated #2 in the nation for coastal towns which provides many options for a variety of interest.
We are located near Big Top music venue. If you are in Bayfield for this outdoor tent concert up on the hill, then this is an awesome location for you. We are close at about 1-2 miles since the venue is on the S. side of town as we are. There is a Big Top shuttle van to conveniently transport you to and from with service to the front door. We love to take advantage of this service. They have a pickup spot next door to the condo with a schedule on line.
Our rental includes access to the outdoor pool next door at Port Superior Marina with a beautiful view of the Marina and Bay. There is a cute shortcut by walking away from the condos toward the dumpsters, continuing until you see a path on your left, take the path, crossing the little bridge, then walking down the road to your left. This pool is a little further down the road at the marina and can be found behind the restaurant which is a delightful place to eat with charming atmosphere and beautiful balcony overlooking the pool and bay.
There is a trail which is 2.5 miles long which runs along Lake Superior from above Pikes Bay marina to downtown next to Blackhawk marina. This so very scenic and enjoyable. It ranges from easy to fairly easy in use. You are allowed to walk or bike ( no motorized vehicles ). It's truly a treat with a variety of terrains, a gorge, historic markers and ... 2 Marinas ( Pikes Bay & Port Superior ) are a stones throw from our condo at Brookside. You can walk 1/2 down the driveway, cross the bridge, take a left, walk to Port Superior marina, take another left to Pikes Bay, then up Pikes Bay driveway ( steep hill ), turn into the middle condo driveway to your right, follow along about a block to the trail head marked, 'Brownstone' trail. It'll be about 3 miles total from the condo doorstep to the Bayfield downtown. I love it so much that I'd like everyone to know it's available.
Winter: This off season is much quieter. It is actually one of my favorite times of the year to spend in Bayfield. The community offers a wide variety of sports and activities. I will include these in the list of my recommended things to do in the winter.
Ref : https://www.facebook.com/Bayfield.WI/
See the following: 1. Downhill skiing 2. Cross country skiing 3. Snow shoeing 4. Fat tire biking 5. Ice fishing 6. Dog sledding 7. Ferry to Madeline ( check schedule, often Mon-Sat. ) 8. Read a good book 9. Sit by the fire pit @ the condo & enjoy a s’more and/or beverage 10. Hike the Brownstone trail 11. Enjoy the famous pizzas and other menu items from a scratch kitchen at the Manny Penny Bistro in downtown Bayfield. This includes a 4 season porch seating, take out and delivery 12. Enjoy the atmosphere, which includes outside seating with heaters, and a drink at the Adventure Club Brewery after shopping at the Howl next door. ( this is about a mile N toward downtown) 13. Take in a scenic drive along Lake Superior to Cornocopia which is about 30 miles. This small town offers good food, a marina, shops, and winter hiking. 14. Stop by the Distillery just about a mile outside of Bayfield. They offer a fantastic outdoor atmosphere with heaters and a drink menu which is worth the time. 15. snowmobiling, reach out to me for parking details if you have a trailer
Spring/Summer/Fall : You’ll be near mountain biking trails, hiking, biking, nature, Apostles Islands including Madeline Island which is available by ferry. After an adventurous day exploring, Enjoy the ambiance of the fireplace & a jacuzzi tub. Next to 2 marinas. You may also enjoy the outdoor grill, seating and fire pit on the Brookside Hideaway grounds. Another easy option at the end of the day after sightseeing is a walk to Portside restaurant . This restaurant is a stone's throw from the condo or a little further down the same driveway with a good reputation for food & drinks along with a beautiful view of Portside marina. They have a new menu which is amazing. They are open Thurs.-Saturday at 4 p.m. Please confirm serving hours. our condo rental also includes access to an outdoor pool which is next to the Port Superior Marina restaurant which is on the Marina grounds. The restaurant and the pool have a wonderful atmosphere and view of lake Superior.
There is an artesian well across the county road from our condo which is the source of water at our condo. It is so very delicious. I advise bringing a couple of water bottles.
( Note: stays of 5 days or more are eligible to be billed an extra cleaning fee of $25 for linens & additional cleaning cost incurred. )

It is a corner unit with 4 windows. It provides plenty of natural light. I enjoyed that a lot. We were not lucky with the weather and had to stay inside more than anticipated. But it was so cozy, bright and clean. I liked to snuggle in the chair with hot tea. The unit is very nicely decorated. The bedding sheets and blanket was so soft and warm. Bed was little too soft for my taste. The Internet was fast. I would definitely come back. Ps. It would be great if there was a small vacuum cleaner and some cleaning supply.

Very easy to make a reservation, room was as stated (clean, updated, and comfortable). Minutes away from downtown, restaurants and Bayfield Marina but still in a wooded area away from the traffic. Whirlpool was a pleasant addition and relaxing. Would love to stay there again, if in the area.

This was a very nice place for our stay at the Apostle islands. I gave five stars for everything except for the location. Somehow, I expected to see the lake from the condo, but it is in the woods. That didn’t matter though because it was fine in every other way. We would book it again if we come back to Bayfield.

Beautifully appointed studio style condo in the woods, but close to Bayfield (6 minute drive). Communication from the owner (Lisa) was outstanding. Very comfortable bed and the condo has more than enough room for 2 people. Would definitely stay here again if we make a return visit to Bayfield!

Simply Perfect!
We had the most perfect stay for a two-night getaway! It felt like a cozy cottage located slightly outside of town tucked in a quiet, wooded area-- but still very close to the Bayfield restaurants, shops and activities. The bed was comfortable, it was very clean and tidy, and decorated so cute. Check-in/out was seamless, everything was exactly as described in the description and the host was very responsive. If we come back to the area we will definitely stay there again.

Very clean, quiet, comfortable, and exceeded our expectations.

This is a lovely spot for a one person retreat!! SO quiet, and so clean. The Keurig was a nice addition, with all the extras - having a little frig and microwave is so convenient. I found the bed super comfy, and slept well. I could easily stay here for a week...
