Secluded Hideaway with Private Dock!
About this house rental
Nestled in Wisconsin, this charming house for $620 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Welcome to Whispering Pines on Lake Superior, our family's chosen name for this paradise on the lake! You'll experience true relaxation in this gorgeous contemporary featuring 4+ acres of wooded privacy, 393 feet of Lake Superior shoreline, and a huge 60' x 60' L-shaped dock! Spend hours of uninterrupted time on one of three benches situated at various points along the bluff, all providing stunning views of the lake and at least five of the Apostle Islands. Or hike down the 76 steps to the water level and soak in the sun on our dock. The home is a spectacular four bedroom, four full bath contemporary with Scandinavian styling, and was formerly operated as a Bed & Breakfast. The huge open family room and dining area boasts an 18-foot high custom ceiling beam, a massive glass wall overlooking the lake, maple floors, skylights, and a loft floored with Wisconsin knotty pine. Spiral staircases are the finishing touch that make this home a one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece. The main kitchen is well-equipped, with a new refrigerator and microwave, a gas island range, dishwasher, both Keurig and standard coffee makers, and endless cabinets! All four bedrooms have amazing lake views, and each bedroom has its own full bathroom with shower. The fourth bedroom is a large suite with its own full kitchenette, living area, and loft bedroom - perfect for grandparents who want a little added privacy! The suite also has a murphy bed on the ground floor. Step outside and you're surrounded by old-growth forest and wildlife. Bald eagles nest nearby, and the deer and songbirds are plentiful. The property has even been visited by an occasional bear and bobcat! The large deck includes a gas grill and generous 8-seat table overlooking the big lake and Basswood Island. Within ten short minutes, you're in the center of Bayfield, a town honored by national publications for its restaurants, marina, shopping, entertainment, and overall charm. Go on a glass-bottom boat tour and visit nearby shipwrecks, visit the sea caves by kayak, take the ferry to Madeline Island, or experience one of Bayfield's many events such as the famous Apple Festival in October. You won't run out of fun things to do! Note: Whispering Pines is suitable for children aged 10 and up. Sorry, but we are unable to accommodate pets.

Whispering Pines was a gorgeous place. We all enjoyed it. Very well maintained and a beautiful location. Close enough to town yet far enough away to give us lots of privacy.

This home is the perfect place to call home base for a group of adults when visiting the Bayfield area. With each bedroom having its own private bath and a great common area, large beautiful outdoor fire table and incredible dock with plenty of chairs, everyone in our group loved it. The views of the Apostle Islands are incredible. We plan to stay here again someday with either our adult children or friends. We loved it!

You could not ask for a better place in the area. Near so much, yet secluded and quiet. The pictures do not do it justice, will return and seek out our next trip North!

10 family members experienced wonderful 4 nights at this outstanding location with very nice and responsive owners who equipped their beloved home exceptionally well with anything you can imagine!
We send texts with questions about tiny details and received very timely responses. Plus all of those small items were available on site!
The pier is safe to swim from and got even heavenly comfortable chairs.
All of us left with a heavy heart aned high hopes to return some day!
Thank you Keith and Karen

Very nice home with great accommodations for four couples. Only challenge was all the stairs inside and out, so make sure you are able to handle that.

I spent a week at this cabin with family and we all loved it. We’ve already booked it for next summer! The cabin was beautiful, very clean and the kitchen was very well stocked. It’s a beautiful spot- we especially enjoyed having coffee on the pier every morning. The hosts were wonderful- very responsive to all of our needs. We’re looking forward to coming back next year.

Beautiful house in a great location
We spent five days here on our summer vacation as a family. The house is as beautiful as it looks in the pictures.
The views from every room are fantastic, lots of space to hang out in and the location is only a few minutes from Bayfield.
The property is secluded and quiet. Very well maintained, and is perfect for relaxing.
Highly recommend this house.
My only suggestion would be to contract with a mosquito control company during the spring and early summer as they were ferocious this year which limited the time we could enjoy the deck. The dock was better as the breeze helped.

Great location with a view
Thank you for the wonderful place to stay on our first stay on Lake Superior. The house was beyond amazing! The phenomenal view and excellent layout made the stay peaceful and enjoyable. It was unfortunate that the season of misquitos has been bad so far this year. We were swarmed everytime we left or entered the home. The nice weather made up for most of that nuisance, but I am sure we would've spent more time on the deck and pier in better bug conditions. Bayfield was such a great town to be situated by. We enjoyed the downtown area and restaurants. We also experienced our first sailing adventure with True North Sailing Charters (thanks to Captain Dusty!). Copper Crow Distillery in Russell was an awesome choice to spend a rainy afternoon drinking. We cannot wait to come back again and explore more of the surrounding areas. Thank you again for the beautiful home with tremendous views to make our stay so comfortable. Hope to see you again soon!

Stayed for 3 nights with friends for a birthday weekend. There were 9 of us and we had plenty of space. LOVED the dock on the lake. Was nice being a short to Bayfield. Nice appliances and well maintained. Appreciated the labeling on the light switches :)

It was a pleasure to stay at this beautiful property with our friends. We enjoyed the comfortable main living area where the 8 of us could gather for meals, movies, games, and conversation. However, we appreciated the library loft, dock, deck, and the Madeline unit where we had more intimate conversations with fewer people or just for alone time. The two-seater gliders overlooking Lake Superior were perfect! We had such a wonderful time!

Whispering Pines was perfect for our two families of 4, with older kids. Kids enjoyed the privacy of the Madeline Suite, parents loved the amenities and beauty of the property. Despite the late fall dates, most of us were brave enough to take a quick dip in Superior- something we will not soon forget. We loved going to the dock at night and during the day. The kids enjoyed taking the ferry to Madeline Island, though there wasn’t a whole lot open this time of year. Thanks to Keith and Karen for your hospitality.

We absolutely loved this place! It was quiet, secluded, away from people and nestled snugly away in the pines and poplars of northern Wisconsin. If you're looking for a getaway to get away, this is the place. Well maintained both inside and out.
