Welcome  

Welcome to Listening Pointe, a fully furnished 3 bedroom, 3 bath vacation rental lakehome on the shores of majestic Lake Superior in northwest Wisconsin. Two miles north of Bayfield, this all-season retreat is artistically designed and situated on secluded sand beach to afford breathtaking vistas of Lake Superior’s magnificent blue waters, and her island jewels…the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. Listed in National Geographic Traveler, this pristine archipelago of 22 islands has been voted best National Park destination in the U.S. for its untouched beauty and environmental sustainability.

Patricia Schultz (travel writer) highlights the Apostle Islands in her global "1,000 Places to See Before You Die: A Traveler's Life List" (2003). These islands are also home to the nation's finest collection of historic lighthouses. Gitche Gumme, the Native American name for Lake Superior, meaning “Big Water”, is the largest of the Great Lakes, and contains the biggest surface area of any freshwater lake in the world. Her presence is everywhere.


Enter Listening Pointe and relax in an ambiance that reflects the warmth of Wisconsin’s abundant natural beauty, further respected by the selection of many environmentally-friendly products and materials used for Listening Pointe’s construction, care and guest comfort. You’ll find spaces for gathering and for being alone. Greet the sunrise from the lakeside balcony. Read a book on the sunny three-season screened porch or let the rhythmic waves and lake breezes lull you to sleep. Dine in the Great Room where a wood-burning fireplace takes the chill off a cool day. Relax on cedar decks overlooking Lake Superior. Toast the sunset from the third story cupola with '360' views of the lake, islands and neighboring marina. Though you're immersed in paradise, high-speed wireless Internet and Cable TV accommodate your connection with the world.

Step outside and enjoy the sand-pebble beach, creek, perennial and herb gardens, wildflowers and walking trails. Listen to the waves, the call of the loon, track the soaring gulls and eagles, witness the sun rising over the islands, the moon emerging from the "inland sea" and a star-studded northern lights sky. Enjoy worldclass sea kayaking, sailing and boating. Transient slips are available at near-by Roy’s Point Marina and Bayfield outfitters await your inquiries. Go swimming, diving, fishing, bicycling, hiking, golfing, bird-watching or ... do nothing at all.

Explore Bayfield and the surrounding picturesque peninsula. This region is noted and sought for its stunning peace-giving beauty, greatly influenced by ever-present Lake Superior. This is where the water meets the soul.
