My experience with the little house in the woods was wonderful! It was very easy to check in, the house was immaculately maintained, and we had everything we needed in terms of beds, linens, and the like. I woke up to a family of deer that had bedded down over the night and watched them while I drank my coffee for a relaxing first morning on the property. Just follow the house rules and this is a great place to stay! My friend and I used it as a 2026 planning retreat, it was a perfect fit for us. The kitchen was fully stocked with any kitchen utensil we could have asked for. There are also paper plates and cups if you wanted to forgo making dishes during your stay. Every little detail was well thought out by the hosts. 10/10 would recommend!

Wonderful property

My family and I stayed here for the weekend of my daughter’s wedding. The home and location worked perfectly: only 6 minutes from the church and 10 minutes from the reception venue. Plenty of space for my family of five. I am labeled as a “clean freak” by my family and friends, and even I was blown away at how immaculate the house was! Whenever I need to come up to Eau Claire for an extended stay, Paul and Anita’s property will be my go-to!
