Traveling in Northern Wisconsin can be a great opportunity to “unplug” and get away from it all. But if your job requires you to work from the road, or you’re like me and want to post photos of your adventures and check in on social media while traveling you will need to find places to connect to WIFI. If you are staying at a hotel this shouldn’t be a problem. If you are staying at a small resort, cabin, or camping you are more than likely going to need to find a place to connect.
If you are heading to the Ashland Wisconsin, Apostle Islands, and the south shore of Lake Superior here are are a few places you can access WIFI and explore some local favorites during your Northern adventures.
Free WIFI in Ashland Wisconsin
Northern Great Lakes Visitors Center
This is a “must see” on your trip to Northern Wisconsin anyway, so hanging out for a few hours using the WIFI is an added bonus. The Visitors Center has some amazing murals, exhibits, and nature trails so you can get out and stretch your legs between meetings.

The Black Cat Coffeehouse

This coffee shop has been an area favorite since it opened in 1995. Local tip: head across the street to the Ashland Baking Company and grab yourself a pastry to enjoy with your coffee.

The Vaughn Public Library

If you’re traveling with kids they can browse the children’s section while you browse the web. The library also has a variety of summer programs and events to keep the little ones occupied.

Chequamegon Food Co-op

This great little grocery is also a great place to hang out. They have an amazing salad bar and soups so grab a bite to eat, pull up a chair and make yourself at home. And don’t think you won’t be leaving with a bag of locally grown fruits and veggies! Their selection is amazing–Y. U. M!
The WIFI password is written on the chalkboard in the seating area. If you have trouble finding it, just ask one of their friendly associates.
McDonalds and Walmart
The Ashland Wisconsin Walmart and McDonalds also offer free wifi.
