About the host
Hosted by Kristen Miller
I am from Vermont originally but came to Wisconsin with my husband for work. I am brand new to hosting on VRBO but I hope to learn along the way!
Why they chose this property
The west side of Wausau is a beautiful and safe tree lined neighborhood with a classic 1950s American feel. The homes are generally quite small and the neighborhood feels more spacious in that way. I enjoy watching the neighborhood kids walk to school in the mornings and returning in the afternoons. Fall and summer are beautiful with great big maple trees turning every shade of red, orange and yellow. There is almost no through traffic on the street where the house is located which is especially nice. There are a couple of restaurants within easy walking distance, and everything else in Wausau is a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
I tried to renovate and furnish this space to make it very comfortable for travelers, including making sure that there are real blackout blinds for night shift workers who may be in town for Aspirus Hospital and our other big employers.
The two car garage is available to guests to park your vehicle and store ski equipment, bikes, kayaks, etc. There is also a big pile of stacked wood available for cozy fires around the fire pit in the back yard.
The kitchen is set up for any level of cooking you are interested in doing, since I love cooking. There is a small fridge/freezer in the kitchen to make the kitchen feel more spacious, and a large full-sized fridge/freezer in the garage if you need to keep large items cold, or for stocking frosty beverages.
The yard is quite big and fully fenced in since the previous owner had dogs. I imagine this will be a great space for your dog to run around and play. The fire pit is also a great spot to hang out and have a cold beer at the end of the day.
For inside comfort, the couch and living room chairs are high quality and very comfortable. The beds also have super comfy mattresses.
