Pinehurst Inn at Pikes Creek

Absolute wonderful place to stay - accommodations so inviting - the best night sleep we've had in a very long time - peaceful. Breakfast outstanding. Hosts Nancy and Steve were very gracious in sharing their home with their guests.

We came to Pinehurst to get away and celebrate our 20-years of marriage. Our hosts were wonderfully welcoming - the breakfast offered was tops, amazing food - local and organic. The rooms were beautiful as was the entire property. We enjoyed our stay immensely. I would recommend this Bed & Breakfast to anyone. We fully intend on making this our place to celebrate our future anniversaries.

What a wonderful weekend getaway. Rooms were beautiful, hosts were pleasant and the food was great. We stay the first weekend in May which was a little early in the season so we didn't get to enjoy all of the wonders of spring/summer have to offer but would definitely return later in the season or in the Fall for the color changes.

We love Pinehurst Inn. This was our second stay, and it was just as wonderful as it was in the fall. I would HIGHLY recommend staying at Pinehurst.

Steve & Nancy are wonderful hosts and Pinehurst is a beautiful B&B. The food is delicious, the rooms are spacious, and the grounds are gorgeous. This is our second time staying at Pinehurst, so our expectations were met in every area, with the exception of the cleanness of the room. (There were uncleaned spots on the carpet, the plant in the corner was pretty dusty, and there is mildew in the shower.) We had a peaceful and restful weekend at Pinehurst for the second time, and we love it there!

My husband & I stayed here over Applefest weekend this past weekend. We are both positive that this is the best the area has to offer! We stayed in the garden house over the living area & it was clean, private & quiet. The room & private bathroom were lovely & spacious. We loved the setting, close proximity to town & the orchards. The owners were so hospitable & informative. The breakfasts were wonderful! While it was fun to see the beautiful homes in town including some of the other area B&Bs, we both agreed that we had the best spot away from the town traffic & people. Even though Pinehurst is located on a main highway, the position & surrounding wooded area feels very private. We would definitely choose this one again for a vacation in the area.

We had an outstanding stay. One little quark with a tap other then that we really enjoyed it. We can't wait to go back!

This place feels like home! The garden house is so cozy and welcoming you won't want to leave. I'd recommend Pinehurst to my closest friends and family and will think fondly forever of my time in Bayfield in great part to the warm feeling of the Pinehurst Inn.

Very well maintained home with beautiful rooms.Elegant and luxurious. Owners are very accomodating and will graciously provide a lactose free menu. Everything was delightful. I strongly recommend this 'home away from home'.

We enjoyed a fabulous 5-day stay at Pinehurst Inn. Everything was beautifully managed. Our room was spacious and comfortable - the bed was perfect. We especially enjoyed all the special pampering - whirlpool tub, private deck, robes, on-site spa service. And the breakfasts each morning were amazing! Steve and Nancy were gracious hosts who made us feel welcome and comfortable.

My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Pinehurst. The rooms were nicely appointed and ours had a whirlpool bath large enough for two! Breakfast was always a delight and the Innkeepers were gracious enough to provide gluten-free items for my husband. On top of that, we received a package in the mail shortly after our stay, containing an important electrical cord we left behind. The grounds were lovely and I enjoyed walking around in the morning, taking some photos.

Peaceful, beautiful place on the outskirts of Bayfield. Couldn't ask for a more relaxing area. Innkeepers and staff are gracious and very accomodating. Would highly recommend and revisit in the future.

My husband and I had such a wonderful experience at the Pinehurst Inn for our honeymoon. It was our first B&B experience. Steve and Nancy are so pleasant and accommodating. Each morning we were greeted with friendly smiles and a delicious breakfast. We would definitely stay at Pinehurst again and recommend it to anyone traveling to Bayfield, WI.

Our stay at Pinehurst Inn was wonderful! The room and house was very comfortable and quaint. The food was to die for and Nancy and Steve make us feel like old friends. Bayfield is a precious town - so full of places to explore and shop. We hope to be back some day!

The comfort, earth-friendliness, WONDERFUL breakfasts, warmth, service and fabulous spa treatments within their in-house spa facility (Enso) was amazing. Highly recommend. My husband and I feel really refreshed. Bring with you running/walking shoes...great area to just pop-out the front door and stroll around.

The Pinehurst Inn at Pikes Creek is the perfect place to stay for quiet relaxation. Steve & Nancy are very hospitable and have the best recomendations for food & events in town. The addition of the Enso Spa is the perfect way to wind down and tune into the beautiful scenery/environment. If only this were a luxury to enjoy more often! My favorite place to stay...hands down.

I had to attend a meeting in Red Cliff. The Pinehurst provided the government rate so I could enjoy their wonderful accomodations instead of some chain hotel. It was a wonderful and relaxing evening before a long meeting the following day. I would recommend this B&B to anyone seeking lodging for any kind of trip.

We stay in a lot of B & Bs. This one was the most comfortable. In addition to the super-soft sheets, the quilts were handmade. The breakfasts included a variety of muffins, in addition to the main dishes and fruit, and local ciders. We'll definitely stay again.

We took a chance with this one, having never been to Bayfield before, and had a great time. The service is great, rooms very nice, there is a spa right on the property and the food is truly amazing. I would recommend the Pinehurst in to anyone.

Nancy and Steve have a wonderful Inn and are exceptional Inkeepers. I would highly reccomend this establishment. The Breakfast's were superb and the ambiance incredible. A must visit location. Bob Cheesman and Bonnie Paczkowski

My wife Julie and I recently spent a weekend at the Pinehurst Inn at Pike's Creek in Bayfield Wisconsin. This was our first B&B experience. We were immediately charmed by the scene of the inn, a beautiful victorian up on a hillside with a view of Lake Superior through the mostly bare trees. We continued to be impressed and excited after being immediately greeted as we walked in, and shown to our room, Elisha's Room, directly above the front porch. We stayed for two nights, and explored the public rooms and enjoyed two excellent breakfasts and found that the inn was fitted out to the smallest detail with choices that were engagingly in keeping with its time and place, and with a view to minimizing usage of non-renewable resources of any description. The owners and other staff were available when needed, and extremely helpful with needed advice and items needed but forgotten. They were also not hovering about watching over guests, activities during most of the day and evening. The setting is beautiful and near a wide range of activities both indoors and out, and many suggestions and much history is detailed in a binder in each room. I would recommend a stay at this beautiful inn to anyone looking for a guest experience that leads to relaxation at whatever degree of engagement or activity one might choose.

Lovely property and hosts. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Very clean, very comfortable beds, a beautiful home in a very nice wooded setting. The hosts were very friendly. I would have preferred less bread/carbs at breakfast and more protein (the juice,lemon poppyseed bread and and apple/french toast dish were fine, but I need eggs or yogurt or cheese - some protein - to really get going in the morning:))

We are first time B&B-ers and very much enjoyed this experience. The breakfast was AMAZING and unique...yum! Our innkeepers were fabulous and always asked if everything was ok. We were also surprised at how quite it was given the rooms are so close, it was a great bonus.

Lovely room, plenty of light, beautiful views out windows.

The tub/shower (jacuzzi) in our room was great! We also enjoyed hooking up our ipod to the rooms alarm clock and listening to our own music all night. The balcony we had, I would not consider 'private' by any means, but I still went out on it to take a look at the yard and all the spots to lounge and activities they have around the yard. We were dissapointed in the size of the bed (I think we had a dworf queen size?) and the breakfast. Not that the food was poorly done, we just didn't like it, except for the local fruit and juice which were great. We did appreciate the effort they've put into being ecologically conservative, and encouraging the rest of their industry to follow.

The Innkeepers, Nancy and Steve do everything to make your stay enjoyable. They have fabulose homemade breakfast made with local ingredients. Nancy and Steve are extremely knowledgable about the area and can always help you find something to do, even when it's raining.

We loved our first stay at Pinehurst from start to finish. When we arrived the house smelled AMAZING. The innkeepers were making grape jam from grapes that they had grown on the property. The house is so cozy and inviting. We stayed in the R.D. Pike room and it was perfect for us. Very clean and eco-friendly. We were even provided with aluminum water bottles to use to cut down on plastic. Breakfast was made by utilizing local products and it was absolutely delicious! I wish I was able to eat like that every day! I would recommend Pinehurst to anyone traveling to Bayfield. I can't wait to go return.

I really can't say enough positive things about the Pinehurst Inn in beautiful Bayfield. The accommodations were comfortable, especially the king-sized bed. We very much enjoyed the eco-friendly aspects of the inn. The innkeepers clearly care very much about sustainability and protecting the environment. Steve and Nancy went out of their way to accommodate our ever need and request. Both were friendly and knowledgeable, and their expertise definitely enhanced our trip. You won't be disappointed in this B&B.

We found Pinehurst online and thought their Garden House was perfect for our taste. We like a little more modern feel to our B & B. We stayed in the Brownstone room which had a three-sided fireplace and large whirlpool tub. Loved it! We would have appreciated a tv/dvd player in our room for movies rather then the shared tv/dvd player, but we came prepared with our laptop so we could watch a movie in our room. Not a big deal. The Pinehurst staff was great. Breakfast was wonderful every day. Next time we will do the spa. Bayfield had tons to offer. Can't wait to go back.

Nancy and Steve were very accomodating to guest requests and schedules. The bed was comfortable, the food was great and the grounds were impressive. I particularly enjoyed reading of the history of the house and learning of the ties to the innkeeper's ancestors.

Me and my husband had the most wonderful time alone at Pinehurst. We are both disabled and they were so helpful and met both are mobility issues, and the massage that I got was a wonderful experience. If you are disabled and worried about staying at a B&B because so many of them have stairs this one is completly handicap friendly, and the breakfast was wonderful every morning!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Pinehurst Inn. The room was airy and open, the towels and linens were sumptuous, and everything was scrupulously clean and fresh. It's a quick drive from Pinehurst Inn to Bayfield, so it's easy to go back and forth. The best part of our stay was the breakfasts. My wife is on a vegetarian, gluten-free diet, and Pinehurst Inn had no problems accommodating her. She never felt like her food was of lesser quality or that she had to "make do"--her food was delicious and plentiful even though it was prepared separately. Steve and Nancy are pleasant and easy-going, and very knowledgeable about the area. They were able to give us driving directions that saved us lots of time and frustration, and able to recommend specific places to go to meet our interests. It was a very enjoyable stay! We would stay there again.

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Pinehurst Inn. Nancy and Steve are gracious and extremely hospitable. The house and the setting are absolutely beautiful! If you go there, treat yourself to a massage. Eson, the spa next door, features one of the best massage therapists we've ever encountered. In addition, of course, all the charms of Bayfield and Lake Superior are there for you to enjoy.

We came to Bayfield to hear the Avett Brothers in concert at the Big Top Chatauqua and loved the Pinehurst Inn. Charming with great history and a spa on the property. Our hosts were very nice and we will stay again when we return to Bayfield.

this was our first bed & breakfast experience and far exceeded our expectations. the owners/innkeepers were so very friendly and helpful, and provided us with gorgeous lodging and an amazing breakfast. we will return to the bayfield area and most definitely plan our stay at the pinehurst inn.

We stayed in the Brownstone Room and it is as pictured from the website. We were lucky enough to have the whole house to ourselves. The room and the grounds surrounding the house are lovely. Loved all the windows in the room, until it came time to shower or enjoy the hot tub. Anyone from the main house would be able to see quite clearly. The breakfast was good (fruit parfaits and French toast). The Inn Keeper seemed very business-like and didn't linger to socialize when we checked in or at breakfast.

I cannot write enough about the Pinehurst Inn. What an amazing B&B. The grounds are beautiful with flowers and gardens everywhere. The air smells so sweet. There is a small river that runs along the side of the property and seating areas and a hammock are conveniently set up to enjoy this view. We were made to feel at home immediately. Steve shared some great stories about Pinehurst in the early days. After chatting with him over breakfast we soon felt like we had known him forever. And oh! the breakfast! Fresh, local strawberrys with a yogurt honey sauce, an amazing crustless spinach quiche, terrific coffee and two kinds of fresh juice. Now the rooms. A bed to die for...that is...when you sleep in these beds you are dead to the world in seconds flat. Not only is the bed super comfortable, the sheets are like sleeping on silk. The room is comfortably appointed. I loved the fact that our room had a living plant! The bathroom was great with wonderful smelling hand soap and a luxurious whirlpool tub. The towels were soft and fluffy too. Amazing, amazing place. Don't miss this one! All of the above while considering their impact on the environment-incredible!

The grounds are stunning and the house is unbelievable. We are definitely going back.

We had a great time at the Pinehurst Inn ,we found the home to be charming and restful,Nancy and Steve were cordial and helpful,we will stay there again should we return to the area.

We really had a fabulous time at the Pinehurst. The room was very clean and well maintained, the features in the room like the quietness of the whirlpool, NICE hand soaps and other amenities, extra blankets etc. was awesome. The food was refreshingly very good and we enjoyed our chat with the other couples but I think might have preferred an option for a more intimate setting for breakfast (might have been an option and we didn't ask)...either way, we enjoyed chatting with others and the experience. Loved the woodwork and care taken with the property and all of the environmentally friendly features. I wish we had chosen to take advantage of the on-site spa- it remains a regret but we will get it in on our next visit. Steve and Nancy are both warm, cordial and awesome hosts! We will definitely be returning for a future visit:-)

I cant even begin to tell you how great this place is! We stayed in the Garden House for 2 nights and it was beautiful! And the smell, I just couldnt get over how great it smelled. I love the smell of sweet grass so staying in a room that smelt just like that was wonderful. Our room was very clean and nicely decorated. The bed was comfortable, best night of sleep I have had in quite some time. The fire place and the hot tub were the best part for my husband and I. We were celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary so this made for a very romantic escape from the city life of Chicago and our 3 children. The InnKeepers are great, the rooms are great, and the breakfast was great!!! Especially that blueberry french toast and sausage that Steave made!!! My husband and I will be returning for our anniversary next year. If you are between a few different places, this is the one!!!!!

Pinehurst is a beautiful bed and breakfast with wonderful hosts, tasty food, and relaxing atmosphere. Nancy and Steve will have my business every time I vacation in Bayfield.

My husband and I stayed at the Pinehurst in the fall and it was more than we could have expected! Our room was very clean and nicely decorated. The hot tub is self draining and very clean! All the little extras were there-soft robes and towels, beautiful photography in the room-and a very comfortable mattress. The grounds were very beautiful, and relaxing. The inn has an amazing spa in the garden house-what a treat! We have already made plans to return in the summer! Perfect for a getaway or a honeymoon. The Big Top is right up the road, and can make for a great weekend away-good music, into town for dinner, and then a soak in the tub....

My husband and I stayed at the Pinehurst Inn 3 nights last week and absolutely loved it! The room was very spacious with a huge fireplace and jet tub. The bed was so comfortable and the scenery from the many windows in the room was lovely. The home is just outside of the main city of Bayfield so it's close to restaurants, pubs and ferry, but still gives you the feeling that you are out in the middle of nowhere. The innkeepers are very eco-friendly and recycle as well as use solar panels to heat the B&B. Breakfast was delicious - as an example, we had pan fried apples and yogurt, plus homemade cranberry bread, plus quiche on our final day. Coffee and milk and local ciders are provided too. ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATION: If you end up staying here, consider doing what we did during the day, which was "mushing" with about 40 exceptionally well trained Siberian Huskies at Wolfsong Adventures. It's about 20 miles from the B&B. The owners, John and Mary Thiel, will make sure you have a great time and stay warm. My husband and I went for Valentine's Day and have never, ever had more fun!

Staying with Nancy and Steve is a wonderful experience. Being active members of the community they are very knowledgable about what to do and where to do it. They are very cordial and accommodating hosts. I am looking forward to my next stay at Pinehurst Inn at Pikes Creek. Glen

Great massages for aching muscles, beautiful quiet setting, sweet people and very welcoming. The breakfasts were a wonderful time for all of us guests to share our adventures and trade ideas...Steve and Nacy also are great Bayfield resources. The spa is fabulous.

As a first time experience at a bed and breakfast, the Pinehurst Inn see an amazingly high standard with exceptional food, lovingly detailed rooms, and friendly owners all set in a beautiful location. We really appreciated the small things with the environment in mind, real plants in the rooms, organic soaps and lotions, and CFL lighting.

We were greeted immediately, with a warm friendly smile, and made to feel at home. It was an awesome weekend that will be implanted in our memories for many years to come. We absolutely loved the Brownstone room.

We stayed at Pinehurst for our honeymoon and had a memorable and fantastic time. The breakfasts were always flavorful and fresh. The rooms were cozy and kept exceptionally well. One of our biggest appreciations was for the innkeepers. They were hospitable and gave great recommendations for places to eat and things to do. We hope to vist again!

My husband and I stayed at Pinehurst for our first anniversary. We found the Inn to be a relaxing place to escape our everyday lives.

This was my husband's first time to the Apple Festival and out first stay at a bed & breakfast. We couldn't have asked for more. The innkeepers were very friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. Next stay we will take advantage of the Enso Spa!

We have been to the Pinehurst inn twice allready and this second time (late september) we had an awfull experience with the flies. I thought it was unacceptable the the innkeepers didn't get rid of the flies before our arrival ( there were about 20-30 in the room when we arrived ). Result, I spent basically all my weekend killing flies and didn't get to enjoy my weekend. Since other old buildings around the Bayfield area didn't seem to have a Fly problem during the same time, there is no reason that this shouldn't have been take care of. Other than that, the rest is great. Wonderful breakfast, a relaxing atmosphere and nice innkeepers. Will try somewhere else next time though.

We do appreciate you taking the time to post a review. We are so sorry that your experience during this visit was less than expected. We have indeed had a fall season with a worse than usual problem with cluster flies - a common fall occurrance. This is mainly an issue in old houses located in wooded areas. While we do make every effort to check rooms a few times every day, we clearly failed in this case. For this we are very sorry. In future years we will be doing an exterior spraying to minimize this problem - this needs to be done in August, however we didn't do it since the past 5-6 years haven't been bad fly seasons. Hindsight - not a good decision. We do hope that you will indeed return to Pinehurst. If you choose to do so, please contact us and we'd be happy to provide a voucher for a complimentary night stay. Again, thank you for the feedback and for taking the time to post this review. Nancy & Steve Innkeepers, Pinehurst Inn, Bayfield

This being my first Bed and Breakfast stay, I had no basis for comparison, but it was excellent. So relaxing. My girlfirend and I took a sauna and relaxed in the whirlpool tub in our room. We had a delicious breakfast the next morning of a fratata with organic vegetables from their garden. Can't say enough about how nice it was!

Beautifully located, landscaped, renovated circa 1900 mansion B&B a few miles south of bustling Bayfield. Innkeepers Nancy and Steve proved to be gracious, uniquely knowledgeable hosts. Their commitment to sustainability is quietly self-evident everywhere -- on the grounds, in the rooms and at the breakfast table. While embraced by the past, this historic B&B manages to plant itself seamlessly into a 'green,' comforting future. We'e still congratulating ourselves for our choice of a four-night stay at Pinehurst. We hope to return soon.

Not only was Pinehurst Inn one of the most gorgeous homes I have seen in my travels, the owners Nancy and Steve have transformed it into a Green business model. Organic breakfast, solar water heating, gardens, a sauna. You feel at home while also feeling inspired to change your own home lifestyle.....This is the perfect place to stay if you want to be well-fed, well taken care of, and inspired to change the world...

We loved this Inn. Wonderful room, gracious hosts, and delicious breakfast. We cannot wait to go back!

The historic inn is beautiful inside and out. My room was very comfortable and well decorated. Breakfast was delicious and was much more than I was expecting. Overall my expectations were greatly exceeded.

This was our first visit to the Bayfield area. Nancy was a great hostess, very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely visit Pinehurst again.

Approaching the Pinehurst Inn only increased our anticipation to be staying in such an assuming but comfortable old home. My husband loved exploring the home's architecture, I enjoyed the perennial gardens, water fountains and cozy front porch. Steve Sandstrom welcomed questions and provided local history. The bed pillows were perfect and window views breathtaking.

We had been traveling for 8 days when we got to Pinehurst. Being able to talk to someone who was not behind a motel counter was great. Enjoying the great outdoors and knowing that you have a lovely spot to retreat to after the sun goes down was special. Having a chance to share a wonder breakfast and have a conversation with the other guests was definitely a high point.

Perfectly wonderful and relaxing, we will definitely come back! Nancy and Steve made us feel at home and gave excellent and thoughtful recommendations for exploring the area. M & K, Madison, WI.

We recently vacationed in Bayfield for the first time. We were attracted to Pinehurst because it was just out of town and we were looking for total peace and quiet. The only disappointment was this B&B advertised as being a place where children 12 & over were allowed. However, there was a young (maybe age 2 or 3) staying there with a family and the child woke us early each morning we were there.

[Resource Id: innkeeperresponse, Set: reviews]
Thank you so much for your review. We fully understand and acknowledge the concern about the young child here during your stay. We opted to make an exception to our policy and later determined this was not a good decision. Your comments have reinforced that. The peace and quiet of Pinehurst Inn will be a high priority. Thank you again for your comments - and please do return.

- Nancy Sandstrom (Innkeeper/Owner)

We absolutely loved our anniversary trip to the Pinehurst Inn. Our room was gorgeous, the house was immaculate, the common areas were welcoming, and the food was delicious. The innkeepers were very friendly and always willing to give advice on what to do or see in the area, which was helpful, seeing as it was our first time in the area. Plus, the fact that it prides itself on being environmentally friendly is just another bonus in our book. If we're ever up in the area again, we'll definitely be staying here.

Lovely house with interesting history. First-class amenities and bed linens. Innkeepers may want to pay closer attention to details of house cleaning.

Beautiful location in Northern , WI. Nice, clean, private rooms, beautifully decorated and maintained home with great gardens to lounge around.

Loved the B&B! Great Garden house, friendly owners, beautiful grounds! great places for a honeymoon, anniversary, whatever !

The Pinehurst is a beatiful turn of the century home out of the hustle and bustle of downtown Bayfield, WI. The value is very good for a hearty and well cooked meal. The rooms are well decorated in the turn of the centry atmosphere, the wood work in the gathering rooms make you believe your back a century. Innkeepers are treat you like their family instead of a customer. A home you would not hesitate to visit again.

Lovely and peaceful grounds include towering pines, delicious herband flower gardents, bubbling water, clear creek....The beautifully restored 1880's home had every comfort and the food was great. The innkeeprs are accomodating and enthusiastic.

My mother and I decided to stay at Pinehurst at the last minute in June of 2007. The service and our room was lovely. It was our first time at a B&B. I am hoping to go again this year. We loved it!!
