About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Close to Downtown & UWEC

The Ziehr apartment is the unit located on the left side of the building as you are facing it. It is within one mile of Downtown Eau Claire's shops, restaurants, and bars. It's also a 10 minute drive to the music festival grounds (Eaux Claires, Blue Ox, Country Jam) and a 5 minute drive to the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. This newly remodeled home is full of character and amenities including a private patio & dedicated concrete pad with grill.

This property has a long history and we were determined to keep that history while updating towards a more modern, welcoming look. Constructed in 1881 during the waning years of logging in Eau Claire, the house features a gable front and wing façade and wood frame, characteristic of Folk Victorian architecture. The house maintains its original wood siding and windows, as well as its original decorative porch.

With updated amenities guests will feel right at home. During the summer guests can enjoy a beautiful patio and short walks to local parks.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Property is great in ever sense. Rooms and comfortable. Bathrooms are nice. Location is walking distance to everything we could want. Only issue we had is the front door lock was hard to open. It took 5-10 tries to get in and we couldn't get in touch with the host the day of check in. After we got in, we would always leave rear door unlocked in case the front door lock had issues again.

July 4th Family Reunion Trip

The property had a lot of original charm and character. It's very close to Carson Park. We were able to walk there and use the bike/running trail by the river. Very close to everything in downtown.They had some disposable razors, shave cream, mini toothpaste and toothbrushes which was a very nice touch.

Fun in EC…but there are stairs!

The home is comfortable and welcoming! Plenty of room for 7 adults. But both bathrooms are upstairs, and there are stairs both front and back, to get in. If anyone has mobility problems, be aware. The kitchen has a coffee pot for regular drip use, but also a Keurig feature. Nice dining table for eating and playing games. Just a few blocks to downtown shops and restaurants. Really enjoyed our stay!
