The Little Bodin

Cute two-bedroom upstairs rental unit with a small living area, centrally located within the heart of downtown Bayfield, close to all restaurants, shops, the beaches and the ferry line. NOTE: This property DOES NOT have a kitchen; it has a microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker. It is ideal for small groups who mostly want to be out exploring and who will eat out or be fine with bringing food back to microwave and eat. We DO NOT SUPPLY EATING UTENSILS OR PLATES.

Guests will have the full upstairs unit to themselves. It consists of a small living room, one full bath and two large bedrooms, each with its own full/queen bed and freestanding wardrobe. The bedrooms are spacious, but the living area is tiny and would fit 4 snugly. THERE IS NO KITCHEN. We want to stress that this rental unit is ideal for groups who mostly plan activities outdoors and come back to wind down before bedtime.

The downstairs is its own separate rental unit. As sound travels easily through the walls, we ask that all guests observe indoor voices and light feet. **Quiet Hours are 10PM to 8AM**

**We have a strict “no outdoor shoes inside” policy. The flooring is hard maple throughout with area rugs for comfort. Please consider bringing your own indoor slippers or nonskid socks for your stay.**

**Bedrooms: The two spacious bedrooms each have a freestanding wardrobe.

**Full bath: There is one full bath with shower over tub. Dove shampoo, conditioner and body wash are provided.

**Coffee: There is a Mr. Coffee 8-cup coffee maker with mugs. Folgers coffee is supplied.

**Roku TV: There is a 40" Roku TV in the living room.

**There is a mini fridge and microwave present. Please note there are NO PLATES OR UTENSILS available. Dawn dish soap and a small bottle cleaner are provided for washing coffee mugs.

Clean, charming and perfectly positioned in town, within walking distance of everything we wanted to see and do. It was fine for my group of 3 but could easily accommodate 6. We weren't looking to cook, so the kitchenette was fine too. I would stay there again.

After a full day of kayaking this was perfect for what we needed. Location was amazing and we even got to see live music by the water. It was nice to be steps away from the grocery store, coffee and many restaurant options. Place was decorated with a cosey feeling. We stayed only one night before heading to Madeline Island to to go camping, so having a comfy place to stay was sooo nice. It was like staying at a hotel but much more homey. The host was very helpful and responsive to our questions.

Bayfield

Very nicely renovated property. Very comfy beds. Everything was great.I was just puzzled why there were 3 queen beds and a sleeper sofa but only seating for 3 people in the living area. I owned rental property and worked construction my entire life. Seems like a poor utilization of the space.

Best little apartment ever:) This apartment was so well maintained and clean! Had everything we could have wanted. Beds were super comfortable, very nice bedding, big bedrooms and best location! It's right in the middle of everything. One block walk to three restaurants, half block to coffee shop and shoppy shops. One block from the docks. The only thing is that the delivery trucks early in the morning are a bit loud if you have windows open. To be expected when you are in the middle of all the action. But we absolutely loved our stay! Thank you for allowing us to rent your home:) Will definitely recommend and hope to be back.

Location was excellent, bedrooms were very large and nice sized bathroom. The only downside was that we could distinctly hear the voices of those below us. This did not occur late at night or early morning.

Lovely and perfectly located.

We stayed in this lovely house with cousins. Pao and Khou were prefect hosts, very responsive to our questions and needs. The location couldn't have been more perfect, within easy distance of everything in Bayfield that we wanted to see and do. We would recommend this house to anyone, and we'll certainly rent in the future when visiting again.

This was such a cute and perfect spot for a girls weekend, but would also be great for a family of several couples. We loved the location and the three separate bedrooms.
