Experience upscale camping–Glamping in the Forested Hills of Lake Superior. 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 that you’ll hike into from 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.
We have many plans for the property and depending on when you stay, the campground will be in various stages of development. The campsites, trailhead / parking area, and trails are scheduled to be completed in early spring. We hope to add amenities such as a camp sauna and screened-in gazebo later in the 2024 summer / fall. Thank you for considering joining us on this journey to build a peaceful place to play and stay in the woods.

Fun stay on a fascinating old boat. I appreciate that Abe was very helpful with coordinating my difficult schedule. Great spot to stay in Bayfield. The boat is in a well protected slip and you hardly notice that you are not on solid ground. Much like camping, there is no heat or AC. Yes, there is a real toilet!
We stayed in both the Anchor Cabin and Crow's Nest tent and both were wonderful! The beds were super comfy in both. Beautiful property. Thank you, Abe!!
Amazing camping experience! The sound of the creek nearby was very peaceful and the stove inside the A-frame kept us warm at night. The entire walk to the site is filled with adventure. I would say this place is the coolest Hipcamp we have stayed at and we would definitely stay again.
This was the most beautiful campsite we’ve ever stayed at. The little A-frame was the perfect getaway to unwind in nature. We loved having the fire crackling and hearing the water from the creek. We will most definitely be back! Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful property!
