We had a wonderful stay. The location was so close to everything so we could easily walk around and explore. Place was clean and had everything we needed.

Very nice stay with beautiful views of Lake Superior. We enjoyed our weekend and visit to this lakeshore community.

Jack was a responsive and resourceful host. The property was beautiful, clean, and quiet. The Crow’s Nest of course had fantastic views of the lake.

This was our second time staying at the Pilot House because our first stay a couple years ago was great. It didn’t disappoint this time either. Great location, professionally cleaned property with a great host. Loved opening up our windows at night in the “crow’s nest” to get the Lake Superior breeze in our room. Didn’t have the pleasure of crossing paths with the host Jack this time but his communication was prompt and clear. I’m sure we’ll be back for our 3rd visit in the future.

Nice views. We did not have much opportunity to interact with the other guests as they seemed to stay in their rooms and not enjoy the common spaces. Breakfast is adequate but unremarkable.
4.8
The Pilot House was awesome! The views from the Pilot House were spectacular and the location is very convenient and easily walkable to downtown, to the ferry terminal, and to the Apostle Island cruise location. Our host welcomed us upon arrival and joined us for chats and shared stories. Jack made sure we had everything we needed and was very personable. Our visit to Bayfield and our stay at the Pilot House could not have been better. We highly recommend this rental!! Five stars 👍

The room was quaint, and had great views.

Lovely location & views. The bed was comfortable which was a great relief & we had overall a very peaceful and enjoyable stay. A little more attention to detail would make this place amazing. 1-there was an odd smell in the main downstairs area of the residence. Our upstairs room itself smelled fine, the odor we noticed was only downstairs. 2-there were accommodations for a light breakfast in the downstairs kitchen area, muffins, yogurt, etc. which was very nice. We noticed a semi-full pot of old coffee sitting in the kitchen when we arrived and it was still sitting there untouched the next morning when we went downstairs. In our room, there was a small hotel style "pouch" coffee maker, but when we went to use it (after realizing no fresh coffee downstairs) we discovered a soggy pouch still in the pot from someones previous room stay. Having fresh coffee downstairs for guests in a pump thermos would be a great addition to the muffins/yogurt provided. Making sure no evidence of prior guests before new guests arrive will make a huge difference. 3- We left some windows open at nite for fresh air. In the A.M. there were quite a few mosquitos in room and we realized one of the windows (on the left if facing the bed) had a small gap at bottom between the screen and sash so that is likely where mosquitos entered. 4-Suggest closing the open space between bedroom & bathroom w/ plexiglass for privacy.

We enjoyed our stay. It has a wonderful location in walking distance to everything downtown. Jack was cordial and we enjoyed talking with him.
4.8
The whole house is immaculate and our unit was the same. The only downside was that our unit at the top of the house was pretty cozy, i.e., small. The bathroom was actually pretty spacious but the bedroom was crowded for just the 2 of us. No false advertising, just small. The views in all directions were glorious. We enjoyed walking around Bayfield and getting in some great hikes along the national lakeshore.
4.8
The room is reasonably priced and very cute and clean, the location is perfect, and I adored waking up to the view of the sun rising over Gitchegumee. The blueberry muffins are really tasty as well. Nothing substantial to complain of, and I'd certainly recommend this spot to anyone.
4.8
Great area,the views were amazing. Driveway a little bit of a challenge. But being that most of the properties are on hillsides, you can understand.
4.8
Very comfortable suite in house that feels like home.

Nice condo 1 room bed bathroom tub shower me and wife did little getaway. Was fun great spot. Had a spot in the lawn for my
Truck
And fishing boat worked out well
4.8
The Crows Nest is an excellent property, however we feel that the host could have prepared a small breakfast and made it more personal i. e., sharing about the area’s history.
A vast majority of B&Bs we’ve stayed at do this. It’s more appealing than 1 yorgurt and a processed muffin. Just saying. Thank you.
4.8
Clean and comfortable room. Convenient to downtown Bayfield and the ferry. We were able to walk to everything. Breakfast options at the B&B were limited. The driveway up to the house is quite steep and might be an issue for some.
4.8
An ideal location, walkable and convenient to docks for boat, ferry rides and restaurants. Hosts were like ghosts, serve yourself muffin and juice only breakfasts. Towels were thin and cheap. King mattress has seen better days. Be prepared to walk up many steps to this particular room. Not a typical B&B experience

My daughter and I visited Bayfield for the first time. We wanted somewhere close to everything and with an amazing view. The Pilot House fit both of those wants!! It was within walking distance of the ferry and the shops. Our room had amazing views and was very quiet at night. We stayed in the Crow’s Nest!! We will definitely be back!!

My wife and I had a great trip to Bayfield, wonderful place with a great view in this cozy town! Extremely clean, loved the wine glasses and convenient location to the ferry :). Thank you!

Absolutely stunning views.
Affable owners.
This cannot be called a bed and breakfast when there is no breakfast.
Sorry but there is more offered at any Super 8 than here.

We arrived 15 minutes early after a 4 hr drive with large trailer and had nowhere to park it due to festival so since door code worked we thought it would be okay to just drop our things quick and then find trailer parking. Owner scolded us for arriving early and parking trailer on street in which we apologized and tried to explain but he just walked right by us and never spoke to us entire 4 days. Overall stay was great though and convenient location for us as vendors at festival.

The property was very nice. Jack, the property manager was very personable and helpful.

Perfect location to walk to the small town and to the ferry to Madeline Island.

It was a beautiful setting. The host was cranky. Breakfast was stale walmart muffins. It was very convenient to the marina, shopping, and dining
4.8
Great little property, right downtown. Nice jetted tub and bathroom.
4.8
The room was exactly as advertised, with a small bedroom and a large bathroom. The jacuzzi jets didn't work, but we weren't really expecting them. The location is perfect for seeing the marina as is great for exploring the town. Whole building is very cleaned and well maintained, but is nothing out of the ordinary.
4.8
We do enjoyed our time in Bayfield! Your place was close to everything but quiet and relaxing. The views are fantastic. We will be back!

Nice stay, should add there is a steep driveway in description, if not already in there

Bayfield, Wisconsin
We stayed at The Crow’s Nest for three nights. Such a lovely spot! Up high so the views were fantastic. It’s very close to Lake Superior and everything you need to plan trips to Madeline island, Island cruises, kayaking etc. Also Bayfield restaurants and bars are all within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again!
