Testimonials

We love the Apostle Islands area and thought about buying lakeshore property or, at least, property with a view of beautiful Lake Superior. Living in the Twin Cities area and looking at retirement property in northern Wisconsin could have been a time-consuming and frustrating process. We started looking at homes and empty lots in Bayfield , WI. After a few days of looking at Bayfield real estate, my wife and I agreed that we needed help from someone who really knows the area. Good fortune put us together with Brooke Melek, Winfield Realty.

We began by telling Brooke what we wanted. She spent the better part of that late-summer day showing us those beautiful Apostle Islands golf course lots. Nice lots but we decided that we wanted more acreage with plenty of nature and seclusion. We drove back to the Twin Cities. Brooke expanded her search. In just days, Brooke e-mailed photos and descriptions of several excellent properties. She was especially excited about one beautiful lot near Washburn, Wisconsin, only fifteen minutes from Ashland. Brooke had found the perfect property for us. Eight acres of woods, a shaded driveway, on a quiet country road. She helped us negotiate a fair price and advised us through the entire purchase process—mostly via e-mail and U.S. Mail.

We found Brooke to be trustworthy, efficient, responsive, reliable and resourceful. My wife and I recommend Brook Melek to anyone interested in purchasing Lake Superior real estate in the area of Ashland, Washburn, and Bayfield.
