Simple accommodations with attention to occupants’ needs. Has microwave, coffeemaker and small fridge. Tiny but nice bathroom. What made this stay was the view of the lake and the walking trail behind as well as the foliage and convenience to dining. Beautiful setting

The photos on the website confused me. I mistakenly thought that all the rooms were as nice and up to date as the rooms appeared on the website. After further review I realized I did not look at ALL the photos of the rooms. There was a beautiful view from the deck-- gorgeous lake etc. But the rooms could use some updating.

We had a beautiful view of Lake Superior from our window. We could sit outside and drink our coffee. The room was very calming, spacious and clean. Our king size bed was comfortable. The air conditioning was perfect.

My husband and I wanted a place to stay that was walkable to the shops in Bayfield. All the reviews indicated cleanliness, however, this place was really clean! Comfortable bed and easy walk to town. Our room was updated and really cute. There are no frills here-but if you’re looking for a convenient, Clean place to stay, this is it.

Beautiful view. Pet Friendly. We stayed in the guest house. It was right off Hwy 13 including parking. Couldn’t hear traffic from inside though. It was on top of the hill looking out to Lake Superior. At bottom of motel property you can walk onto the trail Browntrail? It’s takes you along lake and into marina area and downtown. You can easily walk to and from downtown from motel. You can see the sunrise over lake from room. Nice new furnishings. Could use a luggage rack, light by parking and different lock. Hair dryers are shared on property. You have to go get one when you need it and bring it back to office. They should put one in each room. Room came with coffee pot, coffee and filters. Bring your own creamer if you don’t like the powder packets. They have dishes, pots, silverware.

I called because we were a bit early sans received a gentleman who was not helpful. However, after a staff member walked up to us and was very friendly. Checked to see if our room was ready as the gentleman it was an instant no and we traveled for some time. She found our room was available and was so friendly. She took the time and that is why our check in was good. The room is very easy to hear every sound around you. Such as the picnic tables outside our door. You feel like they are inside your room. The location is great for the trail.

Beautiful trail behind the motel that you can use to walk into town. Rooms were clean and we had good service when we needed help with the tv remote. The outdoor chairs looking over the bay were a nice touch. Bed was not the most comfortable one I’ve had in a motel. Nice fluffy towels were great!

We stayed at the Bay West in the lower room. Place was clean and size was nice. Could use some updating in the inside, it was dark and carpeted like an old basement. Would have liked to have had the washer and dryer working as it rained the whole time we were there and kids went outside to explore the area. The staff kept in touch via text and were super nice.

Have stayed here before in the main motel. This time was put in their anex building. Too small, no chairs to sit on, no view of the lake. On the second floor our windows and access faced the highway and guests in adjoining rooms had to walk directly in front of our windows. Was not a value at $475 for 2 nights. Will look for alternate lodging in the future.

Nice place - most rooms had a clear view of the lake - ours was partially blocked with trees. There was a funky smell when we arrived so we opened windows and let the breeze run through. Carpet was very stained - could use done updating. Otherwise a cute place.

This property offered everything we were looking for. If you are looking to unplug and explore nature while enjoying modern anenities this place is for you. My husband and i enjoyed our time. Internet is spotty however the point of being there is to explore the beauty of the area. They should include a better antenna for local tv/weather. Otherwise, really wonderful well appointed place.
