We had a nice stay at Bark Point Perch. It was very clean and comfortable. The setting is quiet, secluded, and beautiful. Erin and team did a great job in communicating in the weeks and days leading up to the stay and they also checked in while we were there. Overall, a pleasant stay that exceeded out expectations. And our dog liked it too. We would definitely stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house on Bark Point Rd. The property was comfortable, clean, and a wonderful place to spend time.We did want to share three concerns that influenced our decision to book. The listing made the lake access seem more direct and convenient than it was, so clarifying that description would help set expectations. Several provided spices were empty or nearly empty, which was disappointing since we enjoy cooking. Also, the upstairs lights mentioned in the listing were not working and should be checked and repaired.We liked the house and appreciated our stay. Addressing these items would make the property even more enjoyable for future guests.

Great location on South Shore

One of our favorite dog friendly spots we’ve stayed. Beautiful fall colors, cozy living room and fireplace to enjoy after a day of hiking and exploring.

Nice view

Nice, quiet area. Short drive to the beach and the bar/restaurant in Herbster. Close to Cornucopia too. Would stay here again.

Private, serene, unique and spacious cabin. Loved the location. Check out Bark Bay Slough. Highly recommend hiking the Lost Creek Falls trail nearby. Had a great meal at the Pickled Herring in Bayfield. And took a chilly fall dip at the Herbster town beach. Always wanted to stay right on the shore of Superior and this place did not disappoint.

The house is beautifully and simply appointed without being faux cabin-y. Furniture is comfortable and the house is spacious. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals (sharp knives...that's a first!). They even have a thoughtful selection of books--not the usual random books-left-behind-by-former-guests. Lots of linen, towels, etc. It's wonderfully dog-friendly, with towels and toys for the pups. It's tucked into the woods and feels very private--we were not aware of neighbors. We enjoyed stunning sunsets over the lovely lake view. We were there in mid July and the wildflowers were in full bloom. It's a short drive to the Cornucopia beach, which we love! And close to the SUP and Kayak outfitters. Cornucopia is a darling town with a great general store and excellent fish taco restaurant. We plan to book ahead for fall and next summer. Highly recommended!

Absolutely Perfect

Erin was a wonderful host and the home and property are stunning. I wanted to find a cozy place to celebrate my grandmother’s 86th birthday. We were not disappointed! The home is so cozy and unique, with stunning views of Lake Superior and close access to the beach. Erin was wonderful! She offered local produce and meats for when we arrived and was even able to extend our stay for an additional night. This was a perfect place to spend some quality time together and am so grateful to have found this gem!

Chill vacation on lakeshore

The wife and I rented this property for her 50th birthday. We loved the location and the view. The house itself is well maintained and clean. I would love to come back for another visit. Also this house is close to Bayfield and Cornucopia. We did some good shopping in both places. We were also close to a number of good hiking trails. All of this is in the detailed guide that the host prepared for her property. She also left flowers and a really nice birthday card. Also you can order local fish, eggs and produce to be delivered when you arrive, which we did and fully enjoyed.

Peaceful Retreat

We loved Bark Point Perch. The cabin is quiet and secluded with a pretty view of the lake and a yard perfect for a game of fetch with pup. Night skies are dark and the wraparound porch a great place to stargaze. As dining options up here are limited and we like to cook, we were delighted to learn host Erin would stock the fridge with local produce, eggs, and meat with 0 of the sale going to the farmers. With what we brought from home and a trip to Halvorson's for fish, we happily cooked in the cabin's well-appointed kitchen. Between hikes and beach-wandering we enjoyed trips to Ehler's for freshly picked blueberries. We had fish fry at The Cranberry one evening and it was great. Even went to the tiny, cool record store in an old bank vault in Washburn one rainy morning. Of course the real beauty of the Port Wing/Herbster/Corny area are it's beaches, it's sloughs and rivers, it's waterfalls and boreal forests. It's beautiful and quiet. I hope it will stay that way and I look forward to a return.
