Stayed in Menomonie for a college girls trip & reunion. Was great to see the old stomping grounds again and explore the town a bit. This was a very convenient location to enable us to walk to campus and around downtown. Had everything we needed for the weekend.

This property worked well for our stay. Our family was in town for a wedding and was looking for a home base. The location was convenient, the check-in process was easy, and the host was very communicative and easy to work with (even allowing a last-minute late checkout). The house served the purposes of our visit to Menominee, and the host was accommodating.

Definitely needs a once over fall cleaning! No had soap in main bedroom bathroom. No dish soap in kitchen. Only half roll of toilet paper. Lots of spider webs, dead bees, and flies.

Thank you for your feedback, Judith. I'm very sorry that the house wasn't as thoroughly cleaned and stocked as it should have been for your arrival. We take pride in providing a clean, comfortable home for our guests, and clearly we fell short this time. I appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention so we can address them with our housekeeping team and make sure they're corrected. Thank you for staying with us!

Cute and close to town

We enjoyed our stay here. It was a beautiful weekend so we were able to walk to restaurants and shops. It is closer to campus than we thought but the weekend was fairly quiet.

Visiting son at UW Stout

This place is very charming, nice décor and in a good location. It was a great place to for us to visit with my UW Stout student son and his girlfriend. We were able to make a big breakfast in the fully supplied kitchen! The communication with the property manager was quick and she was very accommodating. We definitely will be staying here again!

A perfect day for anything you need to do at UW Stout.

The house worked very well for a graduation weekend. We could have family time in a living room, and have crock pots going in the kitchen for people to eat at any time. The two bathrooms were fantastic to have with a group of people staying. The bathrooms were very nice. are very nice.

Great for flexible and flowing family

We were here for a family wedding with various family members coming and going — some for an afternoon visit, some for overnight. Our 89-year-old matriarch even stayed for one night. It accommodated everyone’s needs nicely and was in a great location for easy access to restaurants, the movie theater and the wedding held in a nearby small town.
