After tallying the votes, two cities in the Great Lakes region were awarded USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice 2023 Best Coastal Small Town. Listed amongst towns such as Sanibel Island, Florida, and Provincetown, Massachusetts, Bayfield, Wisconsin, is listed at the No. 4 spot.
“Fit for a postcard, the picturesque town of Bayfield is a gateway to the stunning Apostle Islands, boasting numerous lighthouses and some truly impressive caves and cliffs,” the 10Best website states. “When not cruising the islands, other points of interest include the Bayfield Maritime Museum, Bayfield Artists Guild, Bayfield Apple Company and Howl Adventure Center.”
Topping the charts at No. 1 is Sandusky, Ohio.
“This Ohio town on the coast of Lake Erie is home to Cedar Point — one of the top roller coaster-laden amusement parks in the country,” the website states. “As such, Sandusky regularly welcomes families from all over and is prepared to do so with other attractions like Great Wolf Lodge Water Park, Sandusky Children’s Museum, and the Merry-Go-Round Museum, plus plenty of spots for yummy treats like Soda Pop’s.”
