Bayfield is a small town in Wisconsin on the shores of magnificent Lake Superior. The town started its life as a lumbering and fishing community, and today it is a popular tourist destination and a gateway to the 22 beautiful Apostle Islands.

Bayfield is known for its rich art scene and many festivals, such as the very popular annual Apple Festival, Bayfield in Bloom, the Festival of Arts and Gallery Tour, and the Apostle Islands Sled Dog Race.

Visitors interested in the town’s history and heritage should visit the Bayfield Heritage and Museum and the Bayfield Maritime Museum. The 950-seat canvas tent theater Big Top Chautauqua offers excellent summer entertainment and performers such as Willie Nelson. The nearby Apostle Islands National Lakeshore offers many opportunities for outdoor recreation, such as sailing, kayaking, camping, scuba diving, and hiking.
