First let me say that the photos don’t do this place justice! It is SO much better than the pictures. It was super clean and welcoming. The location is walkable to everything and perfect. We were traveling with my elderly parents. They slept upstairs in the bed and my husband and I took the sleeper sofa. The sleeper sofa has the sheets of the previous guests oddly still on it but thankfully there was a fresh set still in the box with the pillows and blanket. The sofa bed was… well… a sofa bed. Nothing great but serviceable. It could stand some WD-40. The water pressure was good. The fridge is a little odd please note it is NOT a full sized fridge. The kitchen was pretty well appointed. The upstairs bed is EXTREMELY comfortable. Some reviews harp on the fact that there isn’t a door at the top of the stairs but because of the layout of the house we did not find this problematic AT ALL. We had plenty of privacy and no one’s hearing anyone snoring or whatever. My parents really wanted to watch cable and never did get it to work but we were oddly able to get our local news in NC. We were there to see the sights though so who cares about the TV. No one was upset about it. This place is beautiful! Definitely a great find. Worth every penny.

Everything was good

Beautiful house…perfect spot! All as expected! Got spendy based on lodging tax, service fee and cleaning fee. Just be ready for the extra cost when booking through VRBO

Soooo cute!! Tons of space, super comfy bed. Took bikes on ferry to Madeleine Island for a ride. Will be back!

This property’s best feature is it’s location— steps away from all Bayfield has to offer! It was nice to be able to walk anywhere. The house was clean and pleasant. The upstairs windows have views of Lake Superior!

This cottage was clean and cute. It was the perfect location because it was walking distance to all of downtown Bayfield. We loved the area. Bayfield was very charming.

The furnace had died the day before we arrived. When we finally called to receive the never-sent door code the house was 41ºF inside. My husband called the host to report the imminent freezing of the pipes and was met with a strange disinterest. At one point, the host suggested that he would sue us if any pipes froze!. He offered us an apartment he owned in the same town. What do you say to that at 9pm in a small town? We later discovered it had fewer beds than the house we originally rented causing our children, who were still driving up, to pass on the chance over fight over who had to sleep on the floor. They turned around and went home. We finally reached the host the next morning alerting him to our departure. Our vacation was clearly over but he said it was all our fault, citing his rigid cancellation rpolicy. Worst experience ever with VRBO! Good Luck to you....!

Exactly what I was picturing for a weekend getaway for my husband and I!

Very nice accommodations and very short to shops and activities.

We had a great stay at Hendrickson House and will likely stay there again! We LOVED the location as well as the comforts of the main floor living space. I think there was an opportunity for it to be a bit cleaner - we had an 11 month old who spent a lot of time on the floor, and he definitely didn't come up clean! I also wish there was more clarity on the lack of separation between the upstairs sleeping spaces - the second room is more of an open closet/alcove with a twin bed, and it got quite warm in there. I also wish there was more comfortable deck and porch seating. Overall, as mentioned, we will likely stay again as the space and location are ideal.

Great clean and comfortable property. Only noticeable thing was that there are no bedroom doors and the upstairs seems more like a honeymoon sweet. Great for 1 couple or a close group of friends.

The upstairs bedroom and sitting area is terrific, but even the downstairs pull-out was very comfortable with the extra padding included with the linens. Downstairs dining and sitting area is all anyone could wish. Kitchen is fully supplied with dishes, pots, utensils, two small refrigerators and a nice flat-top stove. Both a regular Mr. Coffee maker and a Keurig machine supplied. Both the front and back porches were pleasant retreats at different times of the day. Location is perfect. Would absolutely stay again.

We loved staying at the Hendrickson House! The best part about this property is the location. You’re no more than 5 minutes from anything you may need in Bayfield. Andy’s market less than a minute walk has every grocery need covered, delicious restaurants and ice cream shop mere steps away, and the pier that includes the car ferry and the castle tours right down the road. Additionally, this house has a great outdoor patio for cozy evening dinners and the kitchen is well equipped, we made a full breakfast with ease. My only comment is please note that the spare bedroom is located in the master bedroom (they aren’t separate), so just know you’ll be sharing that space with whomever is in the master. This was fine for us because we were traveling as a family. 100% recommend this location. Loved our stay here.

Great location in downtown Bayfield right next to small grocery store, coffee shops, and harbor, and equally close to beautiful nature preserve. Ideal for a couple since there are no doors between rooms.

The location, updates in decor, cleanliness and atmosphere was great.

Had a fantastic time at this property with my wife and 3 small children. Very nice space, clean, updated, and easily walkable to all the restaurants and pier in Bayfield. Hope to stay again!

Loved staying here! We came up for our anniversary and it was a wonderful place to stay at

I stayed here with 2 friends for a weekend get together. We loved this place. It had a large open living space with kitchen. It was very clean and located within a couple of blocks of Main Street. It also had a nice outdoor deck.

This is a cute little place that worked great for our family's two-night stay. The king bed and single bed upstairs, plus the fold-out couch downstairs, provided plenty of sleeping space for a couple nights. The whirlpool tub is very nice. The front porch and back deck are enjoyable outdoor spaces. It's just a short walk from almost everything in Bayfield, including a little grocery store and of course the lake.

So perfect for our stay in Bayfield. Property was comfortable and clean. So great to have accommodations that felt like home to us all.

We really enjoyed our time at this house and would definitely stay again.

The house was very well kept and I loved the original design. So cute. Made me wish it was warmer so we could enjoy the deck outside in the backyard and in the front. Beautiful view of Lake Superior as well. Having a full kitchen with utensils was so helpful since restaurants are not open in the winter, but also what was helpful was the fact there was a grocery store right around the corner that was open. Awesome, will definitely stay again.

This is the perfect rental for a small group in Bayfield. Location is so convenient for shopping, restaurants, groceries, coffee shop, ferry. It was very clean and the set up was very nice. Would absolutely stay here again when the weather is warmer. It was unseasonably cold, so we enjoyed the fireplace. Jack was very organized with communications and we had everything we needed!

lovely place (terrific bed) great location
