Great Location!
Located on the main drag of Bay Field and within walking distance to everything. Extremely clean with a large kitchen and living space. Perfect for 3 of us, but would fit a family of 4 with the pullout bed and large couch. We spent many hours in the evening sitting on the back deck looking at the lake. We will be back!

The apartment is on a second floor walk up and is beautifully decorated, is clean, comfortable and close to everything. I would definitely stay here again. Khou and Pao are excellent hosts, and communicate very well regarding expectations and are available for questions. You can see the lake from the back porch, and the area is very walkable.

Exploring Bayfield WI and the Apostle Islands
The Blue Grotto is the perfect setting for sightseeing on foot. Market right across the street, ferry less than 5 min. walk and Apostle Cruise about 2 min. walk. Shops, pub, deli or restaurants, museum, marina and a few fish markets with fresh or delicious smoked fish within 5 min. The accommodations are very comfortable and very tastefully decorated. The owners definitely have an eye for detail, design and quality materials. You are close to everything, but it was very quiet, secluded and felt safe. Our car was parked right below our bedroom window. Nice back deck with a partial, but good view of the big lake. I have already recommended this to friends and family that plan to tour the area.

Dream Stay at the Blue Grotto
Honestly could not have asked for a more perfect stay at the Blue Grotto! Everything was amazingly clean and beautifully furnished, check in/out was very easy, and the location was perfect for enjoying the cute town and walking to the marina. We stayed on our honeymoon, and the hosts were absolutely fantastic and went out of their way to make our time there special! So grateful to have been able to stay, and wouldn't even consider anywhere else if back in the area!

Attention to details
This property has been beautifully renovated with wonderful attention to detail. From the stunning ceilings, quality furniture and solid wood doors and chair rail, it was beautiful. The view of the bay was nicer than I expected and I personally enjoyed sitting out on the deck watching the activity in the alley below. It was also right in the middle of town making it a short walk to shops, COFFEE, and restaurants. The owners were responsive to requests and kindly adjusted my reservation when I realized that I needed to shorten my stay. We have family in Bayfield and will plan to utilize this facility next time we visit.
