We were very happy with the cabin -- great accomodations, very clean and they supplied everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The property exceeded our expectations. Unfortunately, the mattresses were not in good shape, so one of the four guests ended up finding somewhere else to sleep for the night. No one felt well rested, which was a big disappointment.

Hi Kerstin - thank you for your feedback, we haven't received any complaints before, but we will keep this in mind. You may have missed the signage, but the main level is a Tempur-Pedic which you can adjust to your preferences. Had we known during your stay regarding the discomfort, we could have advised you on how to adjust the settings. Glad you enjoyed the stay otherwise.

It was great! Appreciated the decor of the place. Everything was stocked as far as dishes, appliances, CD player, fans, etc. We were relieved for a cooling unit on hot, humid days. We were a family of 5, and it worked for the 5th person to sleep on the couch inside or on the screened-in porch. One suggestion is to leave a note for guests on the refrigerator door to give it a little extra push to ensure it is shut.Thank you!! Beautiful place :)Kris and family

We’ve stayed in several of these cabins. This one was a bit close to the highway so it was noisier than previous stays. Also, the master bed, couch, and living room chair are not comfortable at all. Not conducive to relaxing. Would love to see a king size bed for the premium cost of this place. Also, could not find more than two kitchen towels. Not sure the reason for not having more towels.I understand I’m being picky but again for the price, there are expectations and I would say this canes fell below expectations.

Hi Nick - we are sorry your stay wasn't what you expected. Our team is available almost 24/7 and would have loved to hear from you, as we could have addressed most of your concerns. The main floor bedroom is only a queen bed - we haven't received complaints before, but will definitely look at a King when the time comes to replace. The bed is a Tempur-Pedic, so you can adjust it to your comfort level. We have not received complaints regarding the living room furniture either, but will also consider this. We only provide 2 kitchen towels to start. As the property does have a dishwasher, we assume most will use it for washing dishes. There are signs on site that also encourage guests to give us a call if they need more towels. We do try our best to be as eco-friendly as possible and don't stock more than we know will be used, but always happy to bring more out. Part of the cost also comes with using the VRBO platform for booking - we have no control over this aspect.

Visiting the Apostle Island’s has been a bucket list item for all four of us and staying at the Sumac Chalet was the perfect location to do so!

What a wonderful little home. It was so peaceful and quiet. The back porch is tranquility where we enjoyed drinking coffee, reading and just experiencing nature. We ventured out the back and onto the trail that led to a little stream. We felt like we were in our own little world. There is so much nature and yet still very close to town.

A very nice experience

The Sumac Chalet is a delightful property. The location to Bayfield is convenient -- just a short drive away where you can find restaurants, shopping and also the details and tickets to the Apostle Islands cruise. Our total experience was awesome.

Lovely

Loved the property. It’s comfortable, well maintained, fragrance free, and laid out well for visiting, preparing food, eating and relaxing. The attached porch is wonderful and helps bring the outside in and offers so much extra space.

Cozy Cottage

We just love these cottages and the community. It is absolutely beautiful in the summer and winter. Everything is clean and this cottage had all the kitchen utensils and equipment needed. The only think is the upstairs area gets quite warm to due to fireplace having to be on. Maybe install another ceiling fan in the bedroom? We just loved our stay and can't wait to visit again.

Comfortable

Beautiful home in a central location for the area activities! Kitchen was wonderful for evening meals. Prepared some wonderful fish fillets on the grill from Koops/Bayfield. Kayaked with Lost Creek for a fun afternoon! Lots of scenic hikes in the area ( Lakeshore Trail , Lost Creek Falls, Houghton ) including the nice trail to the shore from the cabin. Loved the screened on porch and the bikes ( with helmets) to use.

Requirement to wash dishes ridiculous. 2 night stay but only one coffee provided; no decaf. Battery dead in tv remote. Requirement to carry garbage to dump unreasonable.

Bayfield cabin

The fireplace didn’t work which was disappointing. The furniture was bad. Not enough seating for 4 people in living room. No dining table and chairs in unit only on porch. The bathroom’s upstairs and down were very nice with wonderful showers, and very nice towels. Any requests we had were answered immediately. Furniture needs updating for the price but we enjoyed our stay. Very nice management

This property was one of our all time favorites. The location was wonderful, the architecture fit the place, the screened in porch was incredible, and the adjacent walking trails were a wonderful reflection of the care taken to make the experience perfect. It was a rainy weekend so we spent a lot of time drinking wine and napping - not feeling like we missed a thing happening outside the cabin. The only negative was the condensation from the toilet cause the bathroom floor to get a little slippery. The only other comment; wear the robes!! Troy and Kathy

Our trip to the Apostle Islands

What a nice surprise! From the outside, the Sumac Chalet looked like a quaint little cabin tucked in the woods. But once inside the mix of finishes and furnishings were fun and inviting. There was even a SleepNumber bed just like at home and set it to 65 for a good night's sleep. First thing we did was hike the trail behind the cabin. Easy stroll through the forest ending at the shore at Roy's Marina. Other adventures included a ferry ride to Madeline Island to browse the galleries, eat pizza, and hike to the sea caves. We also took the boat cruise through the Apostle Islands for breathtaking views. Lastly, we even won a few bucks at the casino up the street! Overall, our trip was both relaxing and adventurous and the location of the cabin enabled that to happen.

Fun weekend stay

It was a very nice cabin and we enjoyed our stay. The bedroom was freezing and its because the thermostat was hidden behind the dresser and turned off. I think windseeker should know that if the temperature during our stay is going to be below freezing they should turn on all of the heat sources. The only table provided was out on the porch, we did not use the porch very much because there was no heat out there. There is a terrible chair in the living room. It is a super awkward reclining, hard, and uncomfortable chair. It was also super modern and did not fit the cabin at all. They should just put in a recliner and that would be much more beneficial and enjoyable.

Beautiful area but uncomfortable furniture.

Beautiful porch and walking trails to Roy Bay Marina on Superior. Kitchen and bathroom equipped with what was needed. Quiet, beautiful and peaceful. I slept in the downstairs bedroom. This mattress was not supportive. Time to get a new mattress. All of the furniture in the Sumac Chalet was very uncomfortable. There literally was not one stick of comfortable furniture in this place. There could have at least been one or two pieces of comfortable furniture to sit on. For this reason I will not stay in this particular rental by Wind seeker and pay that kind of money again. They were accommodating when I asked to extend the check out time by two hours. Grateful for that.

A quick note that the mattress is a sleep number and there was a remote to adjust comfort level in the side table. We would have been happy to provide this feedback if we had heard from you during your stay!

The property was beautifully nestled in the woods, creating a very quiet serene stay. The three season porch was just wonderful exceptionally quiet and peaceful. A perfect place to enjoy breakfast and read a book! All rooms were tidy and very clean! The only thing we would suggest is better lighting for kitchen and bathrooms, but otherwise, our stay was just what we needed for a couples' getaway weekend! Thank you!

Winter Wonderland

The Sumac Chalet was even better than we thought it would be. We came to Bayfield in mid-November and encountered a little more snow than is usual, but it was the perfect excuse to snuggle by the fireplace and watch movies and enjoy long conversations. The communication with Windseeker was excellent and they always responded within a short period of time. We would come back here again without hesitation!
