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! (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. Also please note 4th "bedroom" is the lower level family room with the futon.)

Amenities for guests include a hot tub, fire pit with an abundance of wood for burning, Keurig with K cups, 5 TVs with 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 bedrooms, with one queen sized bed and one king size bed, flat screen TVs with Blu Ray and small decks/balconies.

Main level has a bedroom with queen size bed, flat screen TV and sliding glass door to back deck. The 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 before check-in 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 an 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, couch, recliner, 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.

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

Host profile image
This property has been my home since 2007. It gives the feel of an "up-north" cabin. Eau Claire has been my home since elementary school and I know and love the area. Since 1997 I have enjoyed my career in real estate as a Realtor. My hobbies include hunting, fishing, golfing and and gardening. I am an avid reader, as you will see with the amount of books I have! hope you enjoy your stay.

What makes this property unique

The lot is big and mostly wooded & private, so you almost feel like you are at a cabin in the woods, yet you are right in town!
