We stayed 2 nights this week in Cabin 5. This is a very modern and bright cabin and perfect for 2 people. Full kitchen with everything you'll need to cook your own meals. Neat "fake" electric fireplace with blue or orange flames. King size bed was comfy and soft. Plenty of storage. We really liked the shelving in the kitchen and bath. Nice toiletries. We brought our own coffee but they also provide regular coffee and K-Cups for both machines. This was excellent as we both drink a lot of coffee! The owners also leave some really tasty chocolate mint ice cream in the freezer from a local company. There's a good sized TV and a comfy couch and one reading chair. Cute table and chairs as well as a few games to play. It was cold, windy with rain/snow while we were there so we didn't really get to enjoy the beach but we did go down to look at the lake for a while and watch the waves. You are allowed to have a fire (each cabin has their own fire pit) anytime after 5:00 p.m. but there was no small kindling or newspaper to start one and the wood provided was damp so we were bummed not to be able to do that. The only other thing we didn't like, which is just a personal preference, was the overhead lights in the cabin were extremely blindingly bright with no way to dim them. So we just had to use the one lamp and stove light. Bathroom had 3 light options and 2 were warm so that was good. That said, we still rate this a five star place to stay and we will definitely be back again when it gets warmer out. Also-it would be nice to meet the owners. You check in and out by a text or phone call so that was a little strange! The area has nothing around it so you have to drive to Ashland for food or things to do (be aware, there is nothing open in Bayfield in November, we drove all the way there for nothing). Next time we'll try another cabin for a change up. Great place in the winter as it's very quiet.
