We had a great stay. Beach access from the cabin was phenomenal. Listening to Lake Superior from the deck was delightful. The island is very laid back. We loved that the island is dog friendly, so our pups were welcome in most settings. Bayfield is just a ferry ride away for a boat tour of the Apostle islands or other activities.

Had an awesome 40th birthday with my sisters! The cottage had everything we needed including separate rooms for all 3 of us, fully stocked kitchen, bathroom towels & toiletries, board games, books, WiFi, spectacular views, beach chairs, and peace and quiet! LOVED the beach(it was my favorite)! Loved spending time on the deck drinking coffee. Loved enjoying time inside the cottage with the doors open while the storm blew the first night. The storm knocked over a tree across the driveway blocking us in but the host was able to get a handyman to take care of it in the morning! Then we could head in to town and enjoy Tom’s for my birthday!The bedroom upstairs is the best with surround windows and cozy lights!We do recommend keeping fans on to help with humidity and checking yourselves for ticks.Also, careful on the driveway - lots of DEEP potholes - just take your time.

Relaxing stay on Madeline Island

Our stay at Gooseberry Cottage was everything we had hoped for. It was a great home base to explore all that Madeline Island has to offer. The property was very private and peaceful and we had lots of fun on the beach in the lake. The home was very comfortable for our family of 4.

Family get away

We loved our stay at Gooseberry Cottage. The property was awesome. We loved the private beach and proximity to town and other destinations on the island. Our only regret is not staying a few more days. Thank you for a memorable getaway for our family.

Perfect getaway

We were looking for a cabin/cottage feel, lake access we could enjoy as a family whenever we wanted too, and a place to bring our pup. This location exceeded our expectations and met all our needs. Thank you for a wonderful stay and for making this property available to rent.

We had a great time and were fortunate with good weather. The cabin and grounds were just whet we were looking for- classic Madeline Island break.
