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!

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
