Visitors new to Bayfield - where most departures to the Apostle Islands
begin - often try to compare what their senses absorb to other places
they have visited, coastal Maine being most mentioned.

But reality is that this place is unique.

It's a tourist destination without tourist traps.

A small community that has no desire to be something they are not.

A region that long ago determined that living in harmony with
Lake Superior and the North Woods was more important to the
quality of their lives than more tangible things.

Our love affair with the Chequamegon Bay area began in 1988 with an old wood schooner.

We soon bought property for a future retirement home, and in 2002 became residents.

Choosing this area for retirement or business, a growth trend here, often begins with a vacation to the area.

And those decisions arise from the desire for a quality of life missing somewhere else.
