GIRLFRIENDS, GOURMET MEALS & GORGEOUS VIEWS: A GIRLFRIEND GETAWAY IN BAYFIELD

Bayfield Accommodations

Bayfield provides the perfect backdrop and host for your next girlfriend getaway. If relaxing is your top priority, Bayfield will deliver. If you’re seeking entertainment and fun, Bayfield has that too! Perhaps you’re looking for the perfect mix of all of the above, plus some unique shopping, good food, and picturesque views. We’ve got all that too!

Room at Old Rittenhouse InnBegin your planning by booking the Rittenhouse Cottage offering sleeping for up to five, a full kitchen, two full baths, and all the privacy you need to relax and reconnect with friends. Book a massage through one of Bayfield’s spa services: Enso Wellness Spa, Superior Body & Massage, or Stillpoint Therapeutics. Take a tour of the Apostle Islands aboard one of the Apostle Islands Cruise Services’ boats, and round out the day with a concert at Lake Superior Big Top Chautauqua.

Perhaps touring one of Bayfield’s three nearby wineries is up your alley. Hauser’s Superior View Farm is home to Bayfield Winery. Just down the road are Seven Ponds Winery and Pikes Creek Winery at Highland Valley Farm. Bayfield Wine & Spirits also offers a great selection of good wines, specialty cocktail mixers and local and unique appetizers pairings.

Food from a RestuarantDinner at the Old Rittenhouse Inn’s Landmark Restaurant is always in season, topped off with a night cap atop the Bayfield Inn deck overlooking the harbor and Lake Superior. Madeline Island across the water offers great biking (it’s flat compared to the hills of Bayfield!) with rentals available from Motion to Go, great hiking trails, and beautiful beaches. There’s also great people watching at Tom’s Burned Down Café and good food at Café Seiche or the Madeline Island Food Truck.

If you’re the adventurous sort of girlfriends, consider visiting Bayfield in the winter and bonding over a dog sled journey through Wolfsong Adventures. The friendly staff at the Old Rittenhouse Inn is happy to arrange packages for your squad and everyone can choose their level of involvement with the dogs: driving the team, riding along, or some combination thereof. If your group is more about relaxing and taking the slow path, check out Bayfield’s many shops offering unique gifts and treasures. The shops are easily accessible in between a visit to Big Water Coffee Roasters or lunch at Fat Radish.

Whatever the makeup of your group and the goals for your trip, Bayfield has plenty to offer. Choose your weekend (or weekday nights) and get the dates on the calendar! Bayfield and the Old Rittenhouse Inn look forward to welcoming you and making sure you and your girlfriends have a visit to remember.
