About this property
Cabin Home in the City!
Enjoy this cabin-like A-Frame in the city! Although located near many businesses and conveniences, this property sits on 1.5 wooded acres in a private setting, you won't feel like you're in town!

This place was awesome! It had such a cozy cabin feel and a beautiful private back yard, but with all the conveniences of being in town. The well equipped kitchen made it easy to cook our meals from home which I greatly appreciated. There were lots of clean towels, bedding, and blankets. The welcome basket in the kitchen and toiletries were a nice touch and came in handy! Hot tub was perfect...probably my favorite part. Check in/check out process was super easy. Thank you, Paul!
Great property and location! Very clean with games and books to enjoy. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with treats and supplies. The hot tub was a great way to relax!
The amenities/ facilities were really homey and quiet. This hard to do when inside the city. There are spaces for all to be together but also enough choices to be apart and have your own time. Paul was very accommodating with all my extra asks. Enjoyed the hot tub. All in our party had a great experience.
Very clean, well kept and beautiful place close to everything you could need. Feels like you're at a cabin in the woods even though you're in town! I'd come back in the future!
Fun cabin-feel but short drive to good food and attractions!
Cabin was super comfy with nice beds and lovely outdoor areas to relax. Short drives to yummy pizza at Sammy’s, good beer at The Growler, the Farmers Market, Big Falls County Park. Firepit was great! Really enjoyed our stay.
The property is lovely! We really enjoyed the outdoor space while being close to attractions in Eau Claire. Paul has great communication and the price was fair for the stay!
The house was perfect for our stay. We had room to spread out & the hottub was a nice treat. The location is convenient to the city but has a rural/private feel.
Stayed with my wife and one other couple for two nights. Had a great stay. Loved the location-feels like you are in the country but are in the middle of the city. We enjoyed the firepit and hot tub. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
Very cute property! Enjoyed the hot tub, nice kitchen space and plenty of beds to sleep in. Manager was very kind and responsive with questions. We would definitely stay here again!
The house was very cozy and comfortable. Very well stocked with whatever you need. Comfortable bedding and beds. Yard war large. Surrounded by trees, well landscaped and included a fire pit for building a fire. Lovely setting- made you feel like you were out in the woods and not in town. Owner was quick to respond to questions. Very nice stay!
Paul is a great and responsive host. The location feels quiet like a cabin but is very walkable to multiple restaurants, bars, and other places. It's perfect for a weekend getaway without the hassle of having to pack tons of food and stuff up front.
We stayed at Paul's property and it was just as advertised a cabin feel right in the center of town. Very unique and awesome house. The hot tub was great! Easy to follow instructions for use of things throughout the house. Was an awesome trip!
