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.

Welcome
Check in and check out was very easy and well explained. Rooms were clean and organized. We used a lot of the amenities. Hot tub, record player, outdoor fire pit. This place was amazing and just what we had hoped for. Paul was there if and when we needed him. Was an our best VRBO site we have stayed at.

UWEC Family Weekend
Our group of 8 had a great stay at Paul’s place while we were in town to visit our student for UWEC’s family weekend. The home is very unique, reminiscent of a cottage up north, but conveniently located in neighborhood and just a 10 minute drive to campus. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. And we really enjoyed our stay! Paul was great with communication and we look forward to returning on a future visit!

Little oasis in town
In town for Labor Day to visit family. Great little oasis to relax after full days of family time. Everything was great— clean, quiet, and well stocked. Hot tub was clean and hot (sometimes you get a warm tub instead…). There were even extra toiletries provided in case you forgot yours! No body soap/wash during our stay, which could have been an oversight at that time. Highly recommend!

Bike get away
The house was a nice space. It was too windy to enjoy the outdoor space & fire pit which was a big reason we picked the property. Owner responded quickly to questions. Had a nice welcome basket & little toiletries that were handy. Downfalls, has alot of steps & only 1 shower. 3 recliners, so a couch or more comfy seating in the upstairs living room would be nice. Kitchen space is tight for 8 adults, but did have a nice high top 4 seat table on patio Has nice little stair lights on inside staircases.

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.
