About this apartment rental
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.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay here! We had such an amazing time. Not all of our family were able to come this time due to some unforeseen circumstances, but we will DEFINITELY come back again next year. We LOVED this place. It was clean, spacious, quiet and perfectly located, and just wonderful all the way around. Thank you so very much!!

The property manager was very responsive when there was an issue. He kept us updated and worked until the issue was fully resolved.
The place is in a wonderful location. It was kid friendly and for the most part very clean. One suggestion would be to clean the oven and stove top. I like to cook for the family and for the most part they had all the pans etc needed.
I would return.

We have been coming to the island for 20+ years and have stayed at various places throughout. The Bell Street Lodging Retreat was the prefect location and place for my family and friends to take in a lot of what the island has to offer. We walked everywhere and never even got in our car this trip! We will stay here again in the future.

Comfortable, spacious stay for either families or a group of friends. The location is the best! You’re in the heart of La Pointe close to everything with enough space to be comfortable for a big group. The host did a great job communicating with us. We will be back!

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!

This property was perfect for our needs. The apartment is spacious, clean, and quiet and accommodated our large family perfectly. We enjoyed the covered porch as we were able to sit outside and play games while a thunderstorm rolled through one of the nights of our stay. We had an issue with the lock on our door during our stay. We called Dave, the owner of the property, and he immediately had the issue resolved for us. Dave was attentive, responsive, and helpful. We met him later during our stay, and he was incredibly friendly and kind. Loved this property and we will definitely consider this location for future trips to Madeline Island.

Great location on Madeline Island.
This rental is very easy to find and located in walking distance of everything in LaPointe. The property manager was very responsive to our request for a few additional supplies. For those planning to do a lot of cooking, the kitchen is not Extremely well stocked, but otherwise we had everything we needed, including lots of beautiful deck space. We would definitely stay here again.

Sister Trip
Six sisters celebrating a 60th Birthday! The condo was just what we needed. We loved the veranda. Although we were there in the fall, the weather was incredible. We were even able to enjoy hiking and the Lake Superior beaches! Many businesses were closed due to late season, but we came prepared and had everything we needed. I Highly recommend this property!
Thanks

We had a great time. The place was great better than we saw online. Location was great.
The tips on what to see and places to go where very helpful. The instructions on the ins and outs of the place where spot on. Had some stress with the ice road. Weather came in.

Great for two young families!
We enjoyed our stay! Walking distance to everything, such a cute town! Short drive to the state park and loved the beach and boardwalk. The place was clean, smelled a little musty, but weather permitted airing out with windows. The set up was great for two families with 5 young kids to spread out. Friendly, prompt communication with the host. Would stay again!

Great location for a group!
Our group of 10 women LOVED staying at this property! We were there to celebrate a 40th birthday so the close proximity to shopping, bars, and restaurants in town was great. We loved sitting on the deck to play games, chat, and listen to the live music from the Art Bar. The rental was spacious and we appreciated the 2 bathrooms. The decks off of the 2 back bedrooms were great and we opened up the patio doors to get a breeze through the entire unit. There was a wedding reception occurring one night in the event space below us and we could hear the music but it wasn't bothersome at all. In fact, the wedding party even invited us to join them! What a blast! Thanks for the great stay. We will definitely be back!

Lots of space
Nice place for the family to spread out- we had plenty of room. We knew there was the possibility of an event with music below us, and did have that our second night. If you are someone who is bothered by loud music, you probably do not want to take the chance of an event happening, especially if you have an early morning. Most of my family did not mind the music and it was stopped as the listing says it would be, before midnight. As for the apartment itself, we enjoyed cooking out hamburgers on the grills provided, letting the teens and young adults spread out into their own rooms, sitting on the deck, and having a kitchen to make our own meals. The mattresses were SUPER comfortable. There are air condition units in every room which was nice. Suggestion - have instructions for using the air conditioners. Even my tech-savvy teens could not figure out why some of the time the air conditioner would not start up when turning it on or turning it cooler. I would have contacted the owner for help if we were staying longer. Overall it was a great place to stay.

Walking distance to everything downtown. Loved the AC. It’s just too bad that everyone is so short staffed.
