Outstanding, definitely one of the better narrated scenic cruises we've experienced. Our 2-1/2 hour Grand Tour was conducted by a lifetime local resident who grew up on the water and had a wealth of information to share. The ice caves on Devil's Island alone are worth the trip.

I went in October to pick up organic apples, but discovered the barn also had some fantastic local items (jewelry, honey, jam, scarves and tea towels from Three Sisters, soaps, salves, lip balms, and more). I really like the experience and the offerings, so I planned to come back during berry season. A big group of teenagers was super excited about the yurt on the property. They went in to meditate. The following July, I made the mistake of not checking which days they were open and planned to arrive Sunday night and leave Tuesday. I discovered after I'd asked off that they happened to be close Sunday at 3 PM and not open till Wednesday, so I scrambled to get there by Sunday and managed to pick berries for a few hours. The woman who gave me the picking containers was VERY helpful, directing me to get under and into the bushes. The younger person who checked me out was not so pleasant, but overall I'm still quite fond of this place for many reasons, including their land ethic and their support of local businesses.

We were walking past the Bayfield Maritime Museum with no intent of visiting but were enticed by a boat building exhibit and decided to go in. Glad we did Becky this is a very interesting place. There are abundant displays on lake life ranging from fishing to boat building and the ubiquitous shipwrecks so common to the hard life on Lake Superior. This museum presents these topics in a clear and informative way. I recommend it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our walk down the well-maintained trail, looking at wildflowers and peeking through the trees to see Lake Superior. Public directions to the trail led us to driveways and docks, howeverer. Here’s the deal, in town, the trail begins on the southwest corner of South Third Street and Wilson Ave. There’s a government office just east on Wilson. There’s a gazebo marking the entrance to the trail. Before or after your walk, go across Wilson to a lovely garden planted around ships and canoes—charming.

Meyers Beach sea caves are located just North of Cornucopia, Wi. There are caves at the the Northern end of Mawikwe bay and one cave at the South end of Mawikwe Bay.
The sea caves at Meyers Beach are breathtaking... hiking the trails and then kayaking among them was an out-of-this-world experience for my Husband and I.

Bayfield Winery offers a generous selection of apple-based fruit wines made right here in beautiful Bayfield, WI. Blueberry, blackberry, cherry, cranberry, and raspberry make up just a few of the wines you may taste when visiting Bayfield Winery, located in the big red barn at Hauser's Superior View Farm.
Thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit on a beautiful day. Has more than a superior view and we tasted and loved the cider. Purchased two bottles of our favorite, Tart Cherry Hard Cider. We will return.
