Beautiful home with incredible scenery

We were very impressed with how comfortable this home was for us, our dog and friends who came with us. We enjoyed touring Bayfield, Madeline Island and spots in between. It was wonderful to come home and relax on the deck and look out at the incredible views. The only problem we had was the road getting to the home is very rough and I suggest a 4-wheel drive to navigate it. Otherwise we loved our stay here and strongly recommend.

I rarely give such high marks

This place was secured and very well supplied all the little Necessities like there dish soap , laundry pods and dryer sheets. The Kitchen did not have a dishwasher but it wasn’t an issue for me and my brother. It had an interesting setup down stairs was like a party setup or second living room with a seperat Bathroom and Refrigerator. Loved the views from upstairs in March. The Motieth was rustic camp slash cabin and we loved it.

Great family vacation spot

The property was beautiful and very clean.. Location is quite a ways off of the beaten path and roadway is not the smoothest… but once you arrive you have complete privacy. The cabin is stocked with everything you would ever need. The only negative is the AC- it was very hot during the week we were there and the downstairs bedrooms never cooled down for sleeping. There is just one AC unit upstairs in living room and it didn’t cool off any of the other rooms. Bedrooms need a window air conditioner in all of them. We had a great week and would recommend the property during cooler weather. Bayfield was a fun town to visit and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Privacy, peace and quiet

This was our second stay at Valley Vista. It won't be our last. My only issue was the gypsy moth infestation this year. Last year we didn't see any evidence. This year the trees were denuded. There were hundreds of dead caterpillars and moths flying around. I wish there was some notification of the issue. We didn't know if some kind of chemical was used and if it was safe for baby's and dogs to be on the deck.

Beautiful cabin in the woods with everything you need

This is a beautiful cabin in a secluded location. It is very nicely decorated, clean, and is stocked with everything you need. We had 6 adults and had plenty of room. The beds in the 3 bedrooms are very comfortable, and it is really nice having 2 full baths. Just bring your food and beverages- everything else is there. You will absolutely love the view from the deck while sitting in very comfortable outdoor rocking chairs. It is very quiet, as there are no nearby neighbors. Kahron was great to work with and very responsive. Everything was very easy. She provided suggestions on hiking trails and things to do in the area during the reservation process, and there is a book full of material in the cabin when you arrive. She has thought of everything. We have a wonderful time, and we will definately stay here again.

A wonderful and relaxing weekend!

This was out first stay at Valley Vista and we would definitely return! The cabin was everything it promised. It was quiet and so peaceful, the view from the back porch were gorgeous. We were lucky enough to be there when the fall leaves were close to or at peak. The cabin was clean and cozy. We spent out days hiking and it was nice to come back to a warm cozy place, love the fireplace. I had requested restaurant suggestions from Kahron (the owner) ahead of time. We made it to most of her suggestions and they were all great! Even though we were there for relaxation it was nice to have tv as the WI Badger game was on Saturday night and we didn’t have to miss it. Bayfield was a very short drive with gorgeous views. I also love the fact that you allow dogs. Our yellow lab Buster had a great time!! Thank you for sharing your cabin and making it so inviting! Hope to return next year! Jim, Tara and Buster

Cameras Everywhere

The property is beautiful and in a really private location. With that comes poor WiFi connection, which is to be expected. What really bothered us was the number of cameras on the property. They are not just pointed at the entry door, but also the outdoor deck area, which is the main reason we rented the place. They also seemed to possibly reach into the sliding glass doors a little bit. We noticed there may be other cameras on the property, such as in a decorative eagle. I emailed the property owner to ask if they check cameras during guest’s stays. They did not reply. When I emailed them days later to ask for checkout instructions, they responded promptly. They never answered my question about checking the cameras, which made us very uncomfortable. I also noted that the gas grill only had two working burners.
