In the small town of Bayfield, this is a great place to stay. It's cozy, well maintained and easy to access. This is our second time staying there--everything was quick and easy. We're looking forward to trying their new bistro next time we're visiting.

We had a great stay at the Ashwood Inn. Our room was larger than expected (the king suite), clean, and had everything we needed. The staff were helpful with any questions we had and the Indian restaurant was excellent. We will definitely be back again.
