The Mill House

The Mill House

8/10 Good
"We rented the place for a girls weekend and the location was absolutely perfect. Beautiful view of the lake and within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants. The only downside was the awkward seating with uncomfortable furniture in the living area and a lack of amenities in the kitchenette. There were no coffee cups and a wine fridge rather than a small fridge/freezer meant we had no ice. All in all a lovely stay and would be even better with a few changes!"

"Friendly staff Great mini fridge/freezer K-coffee Very clean with nice bedding Vinyl plank type flooring (no nasty old carpet) Smaller than it appears from booking info pictures, very tiny room. Crowded for two people with suitcases and food/bevvies. Road noise very loud so either bring earplugs or a white noise machine. All in all, would recommend - very good value for the price."

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful location within easy 5-10 minute walking distance to downtown Bayfield shops, restaurants, and the ferry to Madeline Island. We were there for peak fall leaves color. The view of the lake, the island, the small marina, the trees, and the sunrise from the cozy furniture on the deck outside our door was amazing. It is a motel, so there is the potential for noise from the vehicles that park outside the rooms, but it was a non-issue. Our stay was peaceful, pleasant, and perfect."
