We live nearby and are available whenever needed to assist our guests. Our passion is ensuring guests experience the magic of what we feel is one of the most amazing places in the world.
Neighborhood Info Located on the beach right in downtown Bayfield. You can walk to a wide range of locally-owned shops, restaurants, galleries, and museums. And yet the condo is set far enough away from the main drag to not feel like you're too in the middle of everything.
Location & Transit Info Bayfield is a very walkable city, so your best bet is on foot. We are just a couple blocks from all the shops and restaurants in downtown Bayfield.
Off street parking in lot for one car. Plenty of street parking available, except during Applefest weekend in October. Less than 15 minute drive to Mt. Ashwabay ski hill, Big Top Chautauqua, hiking trails, beaches, and more.

- The Madeline Island Ferry will take you out to Madeline Island and runs regularly during the late spring, summer, fall, and much of the winter. - The BART Bus runs regularly through Bayfield and around Chequamegon Bay for a modest fee. - Big Top Chautauqua runs shuttles for most of for their concerts and events.
Unit Details This updated & modern one bedroom ground floor condo has everything you could need for a truly memorable (and comfortable) vacation! This ground level, one bedroom unit features an open plan kitchen-dining-living space that opens up to your own private balcony overlooking the lake (perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails). The kitchen is incredibly well-outfitted for any meal you’d like to concoct, with a dining table for four that also looks out at the lake. The bathroom is updated with a shower/tub combo. The bedroom has a comfy queen-size bed & the living room sofa pulls out into another full-size bed.
We love how well this unit flows - it’s somehow both airy and cozy. The owners just updated the unit to enhance its clean & modern design focus, with fresh paint, light fixtures & artwork. And nothing can beat enjoying the beautiful beach that is literally steps away!
The condo is located an easy walk to Bayfield's myriad charming shops & restaurants as well as the ferry to Madeline Island. It's also a perfect jumping off point to all of the incredible things to see & do throughout the greater Chequamegon Bay area.
One of our favorite features is the wonderful community garden that is adjacent to the condo building. There's few better places in the warmer months to enjoy a book or just take in the gorgeous flowers & plants in this "secret garden" setting.
The unit also features a rarity in the area: air conditioning, as well as high-speed wifi and cable tv.

Peaceful getaway
Facilities was well maintained and great notes for use of appliances and instructions. Great peaceful area and the beach was beautiful. Only improvement notes on it is that windows didn’t open and you can hear every step the upstairs tenant made. Need better sound proofing between units.

Bayfield Condo
Very nice condo close enough to walk to restaurants, shopping,marina. It should have stated that windows open but have to be pushed closed. Not easy to do in the bedroom. Also pictures of view misleading. Nowhere does it show the big old boat right in front of the condo, blocking most of the view of Lake Superior. They carefully took pictures from angles to cut it out. We did enjoy sitting on the private porch, just wish we had a better view.

Loved it
This was the perfect spot for our family getaway. Everything was super walkable from the property and we loved being so close to the lake. The condo was the perfect size for a toddler and 2 adults. Erin was very responsive to messages during our stay!

Cute, well-stocked, but thin walls and creaky floors
Nice quiet lakeview location, but can hear others walking above due to sqeaky and creaky floors. Also the unit had creaky floors and extremely loud toilet flush.

Pleasant week in the Boatyard
The property, inside and out, was clean and new-looking. The unit was the perfect size for me and my spouse. We appreciated being in close walking distance to downtown Bayfield shops and restaurants. We also liked being an easy bike ride to the Madeline Island ferry. Our host very responsive when I reported a minor issue and she sent over a maintenance person who quickly resolved the problem. All in all we had a very pleasant stay at the Boatyard condo.
