This is our second stay at the Birch House and we keep discovering new little thoughtfull amenities that made our stay more comfortable. This stay we noticed the fabulous shower head (we will have to install in our own home). Also, the preset cooler temperature at night made for the most restful sleep. Thanks again for sharing your home!!!

Your house is amazing, neat, comfortable, homie, and really really cool! We loved our stay and will be back next time we’re in Wausau or when we go skiing at Granite Peak (which was also awesome and very close to the Cottage!).Thank you, Cheers, and Happy New Year!The Jalinske Family

My husband was having surgery at the Aspirus hospital near by. I needed a place to stay in the evenings so I could get some rest. This was a really nice home and I felt so comfortable here.

Repeat guest at this great location. I regularly visit Wausau for work and this is much more comfortable than staying in a hotel. Great neighborhood and the house has been renovated and furnished to a very high standard.

I kinda don’t want to even tell about this home because we want it available for our next trip lol. It is the cutest little house with amazing neighbors. The fenced yard was perfect. We loved the entire experience. The host was great, we will attempt to book this home everytime we are in the area.

Loved our stay, the home is beautiful and fit our family of 4 + 2 dogs very comfortably. The listing does not do it justice. The hosts made the check in process super easy and their communication was excellent. Would highly recommend and definitely stay again, thanks K & H.

An excellent place to stay and highly recommended! Everything was perfect for us; the communication with hosts, convenience, price, pet friendly and super clean. Located in a safe and quiet neighborhood. Lots of extras was certainly a nice touch. Walking distance to Westsider Lounge was a big plus for us! We will def be coming back again. Thank you!

This house is in a convenient area, handy to everything Wausau has to offer, like Sam's Pizza! Close to the highways, groceries and downtown restaurants and attractions. It even comes with your own bunnies in the yard. The washer and dryer, Large fridge in the garage and huge tv make this suitable for long stays. The best!! downtown.

Visited this amazing place in March. Close to the mountain (7-minute drive). Cozy and clean. You will find there everything you need for a comfortable stay and much more. Highly recommended. Hope to stay at this house next ski season too.

This is a lovely home, exceptionally clean and updated, the beds are comfy, the kitchen is lovely and functional, and the yard is perfect for dogs. We were able to comfortably sleep a family of four and cook family meals. The hosts were very communicative and it was easy to check in. We cameto ski at Granite Peak and it was close. Loved the recomendations for Biggby Coffe and dinner at Red Eye Brewing. Great stay!

I stayed for two weeks for business. Super nice and comfortable place to stay. Much nicer than staying at my regular hotel. I’d say the photos under represent how nice it is. Ping Pong table in the basement is a nice touch! Loved the record player and ability to use my phone with the bluetooth surround system for music. Will definitely stay again.

The amenities of the house spoke to us, fenced yard for a dog, recently renovated, and nice residential area. The house is only 5 minutes from downtown and easy access to Hwy 51. We loved the hardwood floors and the many updated interior design features/fixtures. We will book this place the next time we visit family in Wausau.

Located less than 10 minutes to Granite Peak, the Birch Cottage was the perfect home base for our weekend ski getaway. Hans and Kristen’s home had everything you could want and more in a rental, plus the cutest Scandi decor. The hosts were extremely responsive and answered any questions we had. I would highly recommend their place and will definitely rebook on future trips! Thank you Kristen and Hans!

Highly recommend! So many thoughtful amenities in this newly renovated, Scandinavian themed home. Exceptional comfortable bed, huge TV, baseboard heat, all equal COMFORT! And don't forget the large garage - no scraping your car off. But best of all, this very quiet neighborhood is close to I-39 (south), highway 29 (east and west) and 51 North. Easy navigation everywhere!

The stay, host, communication and property were truly amazing! The experience was comfortable and welcoming and we honestly felt right at home.
