Bad River Wilderness

Update:  This property was just awarded 2nd place for 2024 as the 2nd best Hipcamp in Wisconsin out of 252 Hipcamp's based on reviews and ratings!  Thank you to all who have enjoyed this amazing property and provided a review or rating!!! 

On the upper Bad River, I have a special location that I'd like to share for others to enjoy. 

I was fortunate to acquire this land 20 years ago and now that I have retired from the United States Air Force, I can dedicate time to create peaceful campsites along the river. 

This land was originally railroad property as the railroad companies bought much land in the late 1800's to have options to place their railroads. 

There is still a railroad track nearby but it has been abandoned since 2015 and it makes a nice hiking path along the river for many miles to the north. 

There are 3 waterfalls nearby and I will have many signs leading to the waterfalls.

There are 4 total campsites on the property, 1 site you can drive to (Eagle Pines), and 3 tent sites that require 1/8 mile hike to 2 sites, and a 1/4 mile hike to the other hike-in site.

Sailor Springs Glamping

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.

“In every walk in nature one receives far more than he seeks.” John Muir

The view from the small deck of the creek is beautiful. Your own off-grid world where time passes only as fast as the water flows.

Enjoy Nature from your bed just inches away out the large pictured triangle window.

Beautiful T&G through out this small rustic cabin add to the cozy charm.

Awasishkode Rustic Cabin

This rustic cabin is a great alternative to tent camping. Located on the Red Cliff reservation, 1/2 mile from Little Sand Bay Campground where you can swim, launch a boat, rock hunt, fish, shower and more! It is an easy, 10 minute trip into town but also far enough away to have some peace and relaxation to disconnect for awhile. All while taking in a magnificent view of the stars! 

Help yourself to the complimentary snacks and coffee! 

Twisting Twig Gardens and Orchard

My husband Rob and I own a 40 acre property approximately 10 miles from Bayfield, Wi. We have a micro organic farm with hundreds of wild apple trees and believe in leaving the land better than we found it. Rob loves permaculture, managing soils, pruning apple trees and feeding his community nutrient dense food. I work as a hospice nurse and help out on the farm when I am able and we have 2 boys, Arlo and Owen. We keep busy! We offer 3 rustic rentals onsite, but each is very private and secluded.  Consider all 3 for a larger gathering! We look forward to hosting you for a farm visit. 

Our woodstove keeps you cozy in the shoulder season. Firewood is provided.
