Lil’ Kickback On Elk Creek (Eau Claire area)

Remote, tranquil, quiet and private getaway on 5.8 acres on the banks of the Elk Creek; only 1.5 hours from the Twin Cities! This creek is known as a class 1 trout stream. Guests can enjoy fishing, sight seeing, canoeing and kayaking the Chippewa River or Elk Lake, biking, hiking, atv/utv and snowmobile trails nearby as well. Enter a world of peace and calm deep in the woods. This is a beautiful rustic cabin that has been beautifully restored.

Permit issued and inspected by Dunn County.

This cabin is perfect for those looking for a cozy, no frills, rustic cabin-camping experience in the woods of western Wisconsin.
The historic Log Cabin sits on the banks of the Elk Creek and was built in the 1920s. It features handmade log construction, concrete in-floor heat, a stone gas fireplace, woodstove, and a handmade door. The cabin has one bedroom (queen) and one loft (full size) area.

The cabin has a bathroom with a shower, quaint kitchen, one bedroom with a queen (new sealy posturepedic pillow top) size bed, a living room with room for an air bed (bring your own), and a small loft with a full-size mattress. It also has a wood heated porch overlooking the creek.

The kitchen includes a sink, oven/stove with four burners, microwave, fridge, griddle, toaster, and coffee maker. Dishes, pots, pans, eating and cooking utensils and a gas grill are provided. Dish soap and dishtowels are also provided, but dishes must be handwashed by our guests. Please note that we recommend our guests provide their own drinking water. The water is safe to drink but by preference we recommend you bring bottled water.

The bedroom is simple, but spacious and features a queen bed with a night stand, lamp and dresser.

The living room has a dining table with four chairs, couch, futon couch and chair (room for an air mattress-bring your own). Also a beautiful stone gas fireplace. The fireplace offers ambiance to the space and heats the cabin. Wood for the woodstove is located in the wood shed. A controllable thermostat allows guests to set the temperature of the cabin to their preference (there is a/c, however the shady location keeps the cabin cool in summer). There is also a small loft that is accessible by a ladder and has a full-size mattress on it. There is a television and a DVD player in the porch area and in the living room area. Free WiFi is now available. Chromecast is available on the television. There are board games located in the antique chest.

The cabin does have a steel roof and when there is rainfall, guests will hear the rain drops. Relaxing noise for most but...

There are two kayaks, many board games and yard games available for your use.

Little House on the Prairie
This was a wonderfully cozy hidden gem. I almost hate to reveal to much because for us it was such a pleasant surprise (better than advertised). If you like relaxation and solitude in a perfect setting along side a windy river this is the place. I think I'm going to leave some to the imagination but I really don't think you'll be disappointed. We went with our 22 year old daughter and her friend and it was enjoyed by all. I can also see this for a wedding anniversary, a birthday/xmas gift for your wife...just a wonderful weekend. Host was very communicative as well. Trust me, can't go wrong.

You won't find a better 'cabin in the woods'
What a stunning cabin with a perfect location. Ideal for a couple with small kids, or a couple wanting a hideaway. So beautifully arranged and very comfortable with so many options for seating, inside and out. You can sit down by the creek, out the side by the fire pit, out the back on the grass, inside on the back porch, by the fireplace in the main living space... Easy to find, perfectly hosted, 15 minutes from the city of Eau Claire, but feels like in the middle of nowhere, make this place your next hideaway.

Nice getaway. Actually caught a trout in the creek next to the property and cooked it on the tripod grill. Homeowner recommended the creek downside of the dam for fishing (4 minutes away). Caught several more there but were not "keepers" Was my first time and tried the supplied kayak. At 60 years old it will be my last (more humorous than anything getting in and out). Friends and I had a great time.

Weekend in Eau Claire
This cabin was perfect. All the updates and furnishings were amazing! The cabin felt very cozy and the living spaces also felt open & spacious. The property was beautiful with the stream and mature trees. We visited Eau Claire, hiked at a nearby nature conservancy along the Chippewa River and relaxed at the cabin (we did not want to leave). We hope to return soon! This is really a special place!

Relaxing Stay
Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your beautiful cabin. It was so peaceful with such a warm welcome including the fireplaces going and the lamps lit upon our arrival. We are amazed by the improvements made in 1 year as shown in your photo book. We have stayed at some VRBOs that have a code to get into the place which we liked. We thought we locked the cabin when we stepped out on Friday from 12:30-3:30. When we returned, the door was opened with 2 inches of space which felt a bit uncomfortable to us. Fortunately all of our belongings were still there as it seemed to be a very safe area.

Beautiful falling leaves and cabin!
The renovation and love poured into this log cabin definitely honors those who originally erected it many years ago. Stunning and cozy place to curl up and watch the birds, soak up the landscape and a great location to venture from to explore the beautiful Wisconsin countryside.

We had a great stay here! The place had everything we needed. Clean and nicely decorated just as the pictures show - nothing out of place when you arrive. It's also a very private property and good for hanging out by the fire. Communication w/ the host was excellent. You won't regret booking this property!

Ok cabin stay
Nice cabin. Nice yard. Steep to get down to water. No fish. Inside cabin tidy but could use a good décor cleaning. Food storage on top of garage bin unsanitary. Condiments and spices old and outdated. Broken can opener. Air conditioning in bathroom and bedroom can’t cool entire cabin. No contact from renter when we left to check in on our stay and felt not hospitable. Definitely no special touches like fresh flowers or a couple beers on counter with a welcome note . It was ok. Not bad just ok.

All reviews before mine are spot on accurate. What a magical, beautiful, and serene place. Loved every minute of being there. The property was so clean, you couldn't find a piece of garbage on the grounds. We will definitely be back, maybe in winter because I'm sure it's just as beautiful if not more beautiful.

Perfect for a group of friends
Jolene was very communicative and welcoming for our little group of 4, which was visiting for a conference in Eau Claire. The cabin was very clean and had a warm vibe to it—it’s location on the water was an especially nice and peaceful touch.
