This unit is in the heart of downtown Madeline Island. Walking distance to restaurants, bars and beaches. This is an ideal place to relax and take in the views. Your rental unit is located on the second floor and has a panoramic deck to enjoy morning coffee a cocktail or just to soak in the scenery. This includes a massive deck with plenty of seating and tables to enjoy additional views or shared with other company if you so chose. We have created a bbq and beer garden as well. Use one of the two grills and courtyard area for wonderful meal outside.
The lodging includes one bedroom and a bunk bed (note: bunk bed is in the living room and not in a separate bedroom. See photos) allowing for up to 4 guests. Please note that the max guests allowed is 4. If you exceed the max amount we may ask you to leave the property and no refund will be provided.
The main bedroom has a Queen Bed. The bunk bed is an adult sized with one 8" and 6" thick mattresses.
The Bell Street Lodging was constructed with concrete forms. The concrete forms offer a quiet sanctuary within your space. Or step outside and walk a 100 yards to Tom's Burned Down Cafe. Tom's is an island music oasis. Not to mention spectacular for people watching. Enjoy a short walk to the Beach Club for a sunset view and refreshment. Your family could enjoy Grampa Tony's also within 100 yards of your stay.
If you enjoy the convenience of staying close to the action this is the accommodation for you. One flight of stairs, unpack and park your car for the rest of your stay if you chose.

This is a great VRBO. However, this year, the neighboring unit was loud and the music from the nearby bar was also loud. Neighbors are always “luck of the draw”. Also, note that the neighbors remote disrupted the movie we were watching.

Great place, cannot wait to return!
Dave was an amazing, responsive, kind, and helpful host when planning this getaway for my parent's 25th anniversary. All I heard from my mom was how cute the VRBO was, and how they appreciated the location on the island. My parents loved it so much, and I cannot wait to travel there now. Excellent experience! Could not recommend Dave and the property enough.
This place is amazing! It’s a one bedroom but also bunk beds, huge reclining sectional and two other sofas. Huge kitchen and dining area. Nice bathroom and water pressure. Everything is. Bright floor plan. Walking distance to everything. Owners very responsive. We will definitely be staying here again.

VERY DISAPPOINTING!!
At first glance it was a really nice place. That was until we found street and narcotic prescription drugs (with labels scratched off) in the night stand. They state "The concrete forms offer a quiet sanctuary within your space". Yeah nope. Walls are paper thin. You could hear everything. So it was far from a quiet sanctuary. You could literally hear someone fart in the next unit. There was a dirty plate and a dirty pan found mixed in with the clean dishes, so we washed everything we used before using it. Who ever is in charge of cleaning and inspecting definitely didn't do their job. When certain issues were brought to the host attention there was just excuse after excuse on why it was like that. We will definitely not be returning or recommending this place to anyone. The island itself was amazing. We will be returning to island just different accommodations.
It was centrally located. The condo was spacious and clean. I would definitely stay again. Communication was very good with the host. Madeline Island was a quaint little place for a weekend getaway.

Location!
This property is perfectly located in the center of town. It was so relaxing to sit on the deck and watch all of the community activities. We enjoyed a scenic day at the Big Bay Town Park, and enjoyed
live music at The Bell Street Inn. Our unit was spotless, spacious,and updated. The hosts made everything super easy during our stay. We couldn't have asked for more! Thank you!

Wedding Rental-the perfect stay
My husband and I finally got to have our wedding party after long delays due to COVID, and we had been working with the Bellstreet for lodging since day 1. Dave was so fantastic to work with throughout the entire process and made sure our stay was special and perfect. Dave also helped us through some last minute wedding issues that happened to us and truly allowed us to have the best wedding week, he even checked in on us when we arrived. The location in town is perfect and walking distance to everything. We could have asked for a better stay for our wedding week!

Wonderful stay overall
This location was wonderful! We were very pleased with our stay. The space is very large and well furnished and decorated. The outdoor space was lovely, and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony during a heavy rainstorm. Our only complaint was that the couch was pretty well-used, and there were TONS of crumbs between the cushions. We threw the extra sheets and comforter over it to make ourselves feel more comfortable. I recommend that couch is replaced or VERY well-cleaned.

Loved it--perfect place to stay!
The condo was exceptionally clean and comfortable, the location is just a short walk from the ferry and local shops. The kitchen was well stocked with pans, dishes, utensils and the bedroom/bath had nice linens, towels, etc all very fresh. Really appreciated the outside balcony space and enjoyed watching people and island life. Would recommend taking screenshot of checkin/wifi information before coming to island as I had no phone signal/could not access info upon arrival, thankful Dave came right over to assist within a minute! Also recommend bringing along food/snacks from the mainland as the local restaurants were almost all closed down midweek when we were there, so grateful for the local market offerings.

Perfect
Everything was better than expected. The space was large and clean. It didn’t have garbage bags so we used our disposable grocery bags, other than that the house was a central location that fit perfect for what we wanted.
