About this property

Hike-in, Off-Grid Camping: an A-frame Cabin

A small rustic A-frame cabin tucked away in the woods with a picturesque view of a spring-fed creek just steps from the porch. The creek eventually flows into Lake Superior, located just a mile downstream. The cabin is secluded and can be accessed via a quarter-mile hike from the trailhead. Complete with a wood stove and solar-powered lights. An off-grid dream! Private porta potty nearby. Bring your own sleeping bag.

Perfect Northland Getaway
Fell asleep to the sound of the crackling fire and babbling creek. Abe and his family were fantastic hosts. We’ll be back. Can’t recommend this stay enough. Thank you very much!

As advertised
I came in the late winter to do some hiking in the area and could not have asked for a better place to stay for the night. The creek was incredibly peaceful and the stars put on a show at night. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay!

PURE SERENITY
We absolutely loved that we were close to town but when we walked back to the little A-frame cabin we felt a million miles away from civilization. The crackle of the wood burning stove & the sound of the running water of the creek right out the front door was beyond relaxing!

Peaceful Spot in the Woods
Great experience at this lovely little cabin in the woods. A perfect spot nestled in next to the creek. Stayed nice and warm thanks to the wood stove. Would highly recommend!

In 2021, Abe started True North Sailing Charters with his brother Josh, and in 2022, Kate opened Penny Print Studio. Both businesses cater to the tourism market and local residents of all ages.

By staying with us you are directly supporting our family and that goal.

Why they chose this property

We love living on the outskirts of Bayfield and the Apostle Islands.

What makes this property unique

Sailor Springs is a small three-site campground located just two miles outside of the picturesque tourist town of Bayfield, WI. 2023 will be our first year of operation and we’re excited to host campers on the property and provide a unique camping experience. The campground is spread out over 5 acres of forest on Bresette Hill Road. After parking at the trailhead, you’ll gather your bags and hike into your glamping site. The trail winds through the woods, leading you first to a valley where the seasonal Clark Creek runs through in the spring. The first two campsites are on the other side of this valley. The trail can be steep in spots and requires a moderate level of fitness and mobility to reach the secluded campsites. The third site is a bit farther into the forest, the little A-frame cabin, Anchor sits on the edge of the spring-fed Brickyard Creek that flows year-round.
