Camping in and around Bayfield, Wisconsin
Our favorite bayfield peninsula campground is the Washburn, WI city park on the northeast edge of town - Memorial Park. Nice wooded sites, great lake superior view, and clean washrooms with hot showers.

There's some sites at the Bayfield municipal campground that also have terrific lake views.

The little town of Herbster Wisconsin on the west side of the Bayfield Peninsula has some terrific tent campsites on Lake Superior. Flush toilets, running water, but no shower. |
