Economical and comfortable

We needed a place to stay for a couple nights and found this property. Check in was easy and home was warm. The property did need some repairs that I told the owner about. There wasn't a dishwasher so the property was dependent on previous renters to hand wash dishes. The boot dryers in the basement were a big save as our ski days were in the rain.

Hotel or Vrbo

We had another property booked that had canceled on us and then needed to find another place to stay. It was nice that we were able to bring our dogs...if not for the dogs we probably would have gone with a hotel. The linens and bedrooms felt clean but the common areas seemed just straightened up. The check in process was easy and we were able to get in a little early. Since we were in the area skiiing....the boot dryers were nice to have to dry our stuff between skiing. We had 2 kids and 3 teenagers and 2 adults and had adequate room and sleeping accommodations.

Weekend get away.

My friends and I had an excellent stay at the house. We were there to ski and snowboard for the weekend and could be happier with our stay. They accommodated an early check and the house was in perfect shape. Would highly recommend this stay.

Cute cottage

We enjoyed our stay. It was great that we were only 10-15minutes away from the Round Barn at Willow Springs. As well as a grocery, foods, gas, etc. The beds were comfy & the massage recliner was a happy surprise!

Great stay!

Really great stay, had everything that we needed and could have asked for. Very comfortable accommodations and the hosts were very friendly and prompt in responding to all of our questions as we were not from the area. We would definitely recommend this location and home to anyone looking to stay in the Wausau area.

Nice location. Originally from Wausau but hadn't been back in years so this place was close to everything we wanted to do and see. The kids had fun playing Foosball and air hockey.
