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! (Before we go on, you are strongly encouraged to buy Travel Insurance, as you never know what can come up. This is direct from the VRBO website: Visit www.vacationprotection.com to buy a travel insurance plan. All of our plans include 24/7 Travel Support while traveling.)

Amenities for guests include a hot tub (for an extra fee), fire pit with an abundance of wood for burning, Keurig with K cups, 5 TVs most with DVD and Blu Ray players (with Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc)and tons of DVD movies to choose from, as well as a digital antenna (on 3 TVs) that gets many channels including all the major networks, dishes, towels, bedding and much more. Upper level offers 2 sleeping areas, one queen sized bed and one king size bed (this room is an open "loft" style room), flat screen TVs with Blu Ray and small decks/balconies.

Main level has bedroom with queen size bed, flat screen TV and sliding glass door to back deck. Main level also has an open concept dining/kitchen and living area with flat screen TV, CD player, Blu Ray, stereo, even an old-school record player, and games.

Just off the living room is a sun room with hot tub (If you don't intend to use the hot tub let me know and I'll refund the $100 fee for it) with lots of towels, pub table for four, and a side deck for relaxing. The kitchen has oven, range, microwave, Keurig with a sampler of coffees, pots, pans, dishes, glasses, silverware, coffee pot, full size refrigerator and table that seats six.

Lowest entry level includes den with flat screen TV with Blu Ray player, tons of DVDs, two love seats, futon that expands to a full size bed that can sleep two guests, and a desk. Lowest entry also has an entertainment room with a pub feel, table and five chairs.

The outdoor space has a deck off of the kitchen and main level bedroom that has two chairs and small table, outdoor lighting and stairs that lead to back yard area with gas grill (LP tanks included), picnic table, some Adirondack chairs, 2 benches, a picnic table, small end tables and a chair swing. Relax around a campfire ring with plenty of firewood that is provided for guests.

Within a short distance of the property you will find gas stations, laundromat, grocery store, restaurants, bars, parks, mall and almost anything else you would possibly need nearby. Property is located 10 minutes from downtown and across the street from Mayo Dialysis Center and Concordia Lutheran Church (plus there are many other churches in town).

Also, Eau Claire is known for it's extensive bike trail system. Per the City of Eau Claire website: "City Bike Trails: Biking is an efficient and convenient mode of transportation that provides a high degree of independence and flexibility. The City of Eau Claire has 28.94 miles of recreational trails, and 4 miles of mountain biking trails (located at Pinehurst Park). The trail is 10 feet wide and surfaced with asphalt pavement. All of the bridges are decked and railed for riding safety. These year round trails are used by bicycle commuters, recreational bikers, skaters & more."

At Short Street, the Eau Claire City Trail connects with the Chippewa River State Trail. Passes are required after this point. https://www.eauclairewi.gov/recreation/trails.

Note: the stairs to the upper level bedrooms are steep! Also, for everyone's protection, exterior-only video monitoring is in place (camera by the entry door & back deck). Included in the base price are 4 people, then there's a $50 for per guest/per trip after that.

4th sleeping option is the futon in the lower level, plus an air mattress.

NOTE: Violation of the No Pet policy will result in complete loss of your security deposit.

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.

Great cabin feel in a city
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.

Family getaway.
A great location and unique house made for a memorable weekend. We used this as a family get together and besides the much warned steep stairs it checked all the boxes we were looking for. The stairs are no joke steep - go slow and be careful and you’ll be fine. I’d recommend Paul’s place.

Wonderful stay
My husband and I were in Wisconsin with 4 of our adult children for a family funeral, and Paul's cabin was a cozy and comfortable place to gather our family. It's clean, conveniently situated, stocked with everything and full of books! Communication with Paul was fast and easy, and he could not have been more accommodating. Thanks for a great stay.

Extended Weekend Stay
It was very relaxing to get up in the morning and sit with a cup of coffee on one of the many porches and watch the wildlife before starting the busy day sightseeing in the Eau Claire area. Then top off the evening with some time in the Hot Tub before starting all over again the next day. Great Stay - highly recommended

We loved the cabin/chalet atmosphere of the house. Very clean and well kept. We saw some deer in the back yard a few times. Enjoyed the hot tub almost every night. Great kitchen to cook and entertain for our Thanksgiving dinner. Will definitely be back!

Great "A" Frame Cabin in Eau Claire
We found a beautiful cabin located in town but feels like you're in the deep woods. It was exactly as described in the listing. The owner provided everything we could possibly require and more! Great communication and really helped us out when we forgot an item. Kids loved all the space and whirlpool was clean and fun! Comfortable beds and TV's were great! Highly recommend and we plan to stay again some day.

The property was as advertised on VRBO. Very clean and well supplied. Our host was most accommodating, gracious and helpful. Having a large yard for two active kids to explore was so much better than being stuck in a cramped hotel room. Highly recommend 😊
