Snowflakes twinkle in the street lights lined with garland decorating historic Rittenhouse Avenue. The smell of sweet fudge, salty popcorn, and hot cider greets red noses chilled from the crisp December air off of Lake Superior. The Holiday tree stands bright, serving as a beacon for shoppers eager to sample sweet treats, hot drinks and find the perfect gift this holiday season. This and much more await you for your uniquely Bayfield shopping experience on a special night when shops are open late, on Friday, December 1.
