WELCOME!
Thank you for choosing our cozy vacation property in beautiful Bayfield, Wisconsin — the gateway to the Apostle Islands! We’re thrilled you are here and we want your stay to be relaxing, enjoyable, and full of wonderful memories.
Please treat this property like your own home (or like grandma is watching). These house rules could be summed up by simply saying: Take care of your friends and family. Clean up after yourself. Don’t break things. Be safe. Appreciate the amazing world around you.
Unfortunately, humanity has repeatedly proven that in order to keep everyone safe, protect the home for future guests, respect our neighbors, and ensure we stay in compliance with our governmental overlords (Wisconsin State Lodging Code (ATCP 72), Bayfield County Short-Term Rental Ordinance, and the local fire/municipal codes), we are legally required to put the following in writing.
This property is part of a condominium association. The entrance decking and space is all shared. Please be respectful of the neighbors as many of them are here full-time. Golfing is not included in your rental, but we certainly encourage you to partake - it is a beautiful golf course!
