Bell Street Lodging-Retreat

In the heart of downtown Madeline Island is the newly acquired Bell Street Lodging. Walking distance to restaurants, bars and beaches. This is an ideal place to relax and take in the views. Your rental unit is located on the second floor and has its own private deck to enjoy morning coffee a cocktail or just to soak in the scenery. There is additional common space that can be enjoyed as well. This includes a massive deck with plenty of seating and tables to enjoy additional views or company if you so chose. We have created a bbq and beer garden as well. Use one of the grills and courtyard area for wonderful meal outside.

The lodging includes four bedrooms allowing for up to 10 guests. Please note that the max guests allowed. If you exceed the max amount we may ask you to leave the property and no refund will be provided.

Three of the bedrooms have Queen Beds. Two of the bedrooms have access to their own deck. One bedroom has a set of bunk beds. The bunk beds are adult sized with 8" thick mattresses.

The Bell Street Lodging was constructed with concrete forms. The concrete forms offer a quiet sanctuary within your space. Or step outside and walk a 100 yards to Tom's Burned Down Cafe. Tom's is an island music oasis. Not to mention spectacular for people watching. Enjoy a short walk to the Beach Club for a sunset view and refreshment. Your family could enjoy Grampa Tony's also within 100 yards of your stay.

If you enjoy the convenience of staying close to the action this is the accommodation for you. One flight of stairs, unpack and park your car for the rest of your stay if you chose.


The Bell Street is a bar/restaurant/event center. Since it is operating as a bar/restaurant/event center there may be an event with live music/speeches or late night activity. You may be a part of that event or renting during that event. We can't guarantee that you will not hear the music or the activity. Unless there is a wedding event, the music will stop by Midnight and the Event will end no later than 1am, the other nights the music should stop between 9 and10pm . We want you to be aware that there may be an event on the day that you book your reservation or sometime thereafter. We ask that if you stay with us that you are aware of the potential event noise and that this will not be a reason to ask for a refund. There are a total of 4 units as a part of this building and there may some noise from your neighbors (similar to an apartment). We just want you to be aware this is not a single family rental unit.

Please be mindful of the Ferry schedule. We can not offer a refund if you can't make the last boat. Please check their website for any travel advisories before traveling. Also, if you are booking very close to your arrival date please pay attention to our strict cancellation policy.

Note: Check in time is 4pm and check out time is 10am. Please note due to the very high lodging demand we cannot offer early check in or late check out.

Great island location
Perfect location for 2 families with tweens and teens who want accessibility to stores and restaurants. Same for the adults! Loved getting to know the shop owners and islanders. Super quick drive to Big Bay State Park and city park for the beautiful hikes, ledgerock climbs and vistas. We will be back!
