This cute barn-like bungalow sits at the end of a 2-mile winding river road surrounded by nature. The Chippewa River is within walking distance to fish, kayak or just relax on the banks.
You will find three bedrooms, one bathroom, a full kitchen, Living room, and sunroom on the main level. Climb the century old steep and narrow ladder-like steps to 1 more bedroom, a play room and access to the roof top deck. Feel free to bring your well-behaved dog(s) to our pet friendly home.

Bring your bike to hit the Chippewa River Trail (just 4.2 miles away), hike the DNR land adjacent to the bungalow, fish the Chippewa River (a short walk from the house), kayak from Phoenix Park, and enjoy the many events in and around downtown Eau Claire (just 6 miles away). In the Winter months you can enjoy ski-in, ski-out cross-country skiing or snowshoeing at the Silvermine Ski Jump Center right next door. You may see the Northern Lights, hear the waterfall, and enjoy the star filled sky while you sit on the roof top deck. A fire pit with firewood is available in the back yard.
The kitchen has everything you need to prepare and enjoy a huge family meal or a small intimate dinner. Play games on the large dining room table or enjoy a quiet evening watching a movie in the large living room. Feel free to bring your well-behaved dog(s) to our pet friendly home.

The perfect place to stay for a quiet weekend away. Close to the city, yet far enough away to forget it's there if you want. The house is quiet and clean with everything you need to have a great stay.
