- Bayfield County
Cornucopia (locally 'Corny') is an unincorporated community on Lake Superior at the northern end of the Bayfield Peninsula in the Town of Bell, Bayfield County, Wisconsin, and it markets itself as the western gateway to the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. Its 2020 census population was 103 (up from 98 in 2010), and it is best known for claiming Wisconsin's northernmost post office, the historic Ehlers General Store (1915), and the Siskiwit Bay harbor where the Siskiwit River meets Lake Superior. As an unincorporated community it has no municipal government of its own; it is governed by the Town of Bell town board and children attend the South Shore School District in Port Wing. The economy is small-scale and tourism-driven, anchored by Lake Superior recreation, the harbor, waterfalls, and the nearby sea and ice caves.
