Welcome to Bayfield County
Bayfield County is a place unlike any other. Wisconsin’s northern-most county offers recreation options that are so varied, the only time you won’t have something to do is when you choose not to!
From the rugged sandstone cliffs framing Lake Superior’s majestic glacial waters to the deep recesses of forest lakes and trails, from art galleries where the smiling face at the door is that of the artist to orchards and berry farms that hug rolling hills, you’ll find those secret, special places that provide a lifetime of memories. Our respect for and embrace of the bountiful natural resources that surround us translates to an outward commitment to sustainability that you’ll find refreshing. The welcome you’ll find here is genuine, and the opportunities for heart pumping adventure or tranquil relaxation are unlimited. Once you’ve been here, we know we’ll have the pleasure of seeing you again. This is Wisconsin’s Crown Jewel…a destination you’ll never forget.
