Perfect Eau Claire Spot

We had a wonderful stay here. I cannot say enough positive things about the location. We parked when we arrived and didn’t have to move the vehicle for the rest of the stay. Everything in town, from campus, to parks, to the old downtown, was such an easy walk from the place.

Nice historic home with a great location

We had a great time staying in this home and enjoying Eau Claire. It is within walking distance to many attractions. The walking trails along the river are nicely kept and a great convenience. The parking is great for a large group and the home has wonderful amenities including coffee pot/coffee, tea, crock pot, along with all the normal kitchen essentials. The beds are very comfortable and the home is well kept. I would stay here again if coming to Eau Claire.

Family Wedding

The property was very spacious and homey. Our family of 6 had plenty of room to spread out. Loved the nice dining room table. It was great for family game night. I didn't realize that this particular property was upstairs, but we were nice and cozy with beautiful views of this historic neighborhood. It was nice to hear the church bells chime from the local Catholic Church. Loved the location, close to the river. We enjoyed a beautiful walk across the river and downtown with a little bit of snow. What a great way to enjoy beautiful Eau Claire!

College Reunion

Property was great! Close to downtown and campus. We had a great time walking to a couple breweries and checking out all the murals/sculptures in downtown. We toured campus, went to a winery close by and checked out Water street. The Graves Home was so clean, absolutely adorable and perfect for doing a little cooking and hanging out on the back porch. We had four of us and there’s plenty of space. Beds were really comfortable . We loved it! Thank you!

My brother, my mom and myself stayed for 3 nights to attend Rock Fest in Cadott. The neighborhood was quiet, the apartment was clean and well kept and the home has history (along with multiple other homes in the area, go for a walk to check it out). We loved our stay! Thank you!

This was the second time our group of college friends utilized this property for our get-together. It again proved to be the perfect place to stay and catch up. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a nice sized living room and dining room, and the kitchen is well stocked for preparing easy meals.. The unit was very clean.
