Ski weekend

Historic home was a perfect for our ski weekend. We comfortably housed 7 adults and the property was very clean and well stocked. The location was great with only a short drive to Granite Peak and many fun restaurants and taverns in Wausau. Gary is a responsive host. It snowed a couple inches one of the nights we were there and the driveway was cleared before 8 am the next morning! Highly recommend!

Cute house in a cute neighborhood

House was very cute and well kept. Loved the big dining room table and lots of kitchen counterspace. Hosts were very helpful.and communicative. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was an old house, but nicely updated. There are some sliding barn doors on the first floor bathroom and bedroom that don't close securely, but it didn't bother us

Very Nice Home in a Nice Quiet Neighborhood

Nice, well stocked home in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood! Gary was an excellent host, check-in and check-out were both very easy with clear instructions. The home is a great size with nice sized bedrooms, and plenty of seating in both the living and dining rooms. Would definitely stay here again the next time we are in Wausau! Thank you!

This place met all expectations. It was clean, spacious, full of amenities (with handy instructions), and in a nice neighborhood. Bonus points for being able to walk downtown as well. Gary was a fantastic host who made sure we were taken care of.

Above and beyond!

This location was clean and amazing! We had a large group of 6 coming up for a pool tournament. So we have stayed at other rentals in many cities and this is hands down the best! They had more than enough towels, soap, toilet paper, dishes, to accommodate without having to go to the store and get our own! Which we have had to do EVERY TIME. ( It seems the norm to just have the bare minimum for our use.) The host was prompt and precise and pleasant on all interactions. 10/10 !!!

Great place to stay

House was very clean and as described in listing. Great place to stay if in town for skiing or other entertainment. 10 minutes from Granite Peak. Communication was good from owner. Always hard to pick a place based on pictures but this listing exceeded our expectations. Ryan
