THIS IS NOT A WHOLE HOME RENTAL
My own fault for not checking closer, but I was not the first person fooled by this. It's a home that has been split into three "apartments" for rent. This one is the bottom floor, so you have upstairs renters walking on your ceiling. Yes, it shows up technically in VRBO as an apartment, but would be nice if the renter indicated somewhere, anywhere, in the description to clarify that this is not a rental of an entire home. Description talks about this "home" and this "house", when really you are renting a single floor in a shared house. Other than that, it was fine.

Group of adults in town to bike the RAW. East location to walk or bike to Phoenix park - which has lovely walking trails along the river. The house was as promised with kitchen and comfy beds. Nice ac for the humid smoky weather. Wish we had some lawn games given the nice backyard but enjoyed just sitting outside too

Beautiful House
Very nice location! House was beautiful. Didn’t realize it was a shared house though. It was still big enough for the family and puppies. Would stay again!

The Perfect Stay!
The Barron was the perfect choice for a college reunion. The cleanliness, accommodations, ammenities, and location went above our expectations. Check in was an easy process. The coffee maker is a combo drip and Keurig. Coffee was provided. Next time, I will request decaf Keurig cups. We will definitely book again!

Need for convenience and beds
I needed a place that could sleep 8 adults yet minimize bed sharing (two of my boys are quite tall and need a bed to themselves). I always look for a place that sleeps at least 10 so my single adult children (6) can join without too much bed sharing. We also needed convenience to my mother-in-laws home and the church. This was for my father-in-laws funeral. It could not have been any better. It absolutely fit the need. Lovely place with the convenience of being in town. Well appointed, well maintained and well managed. My husband and I are looking at coming back to one of the smaller apartments in October

Initial Eau Claire visit
Great, well located, renovated historic gem! We required first floor space and the Barron could not have been better. Because of the three bedrooms we were able to have 3 sleepover nights with our 2 grandsons, ages 5 1/2 and 3 (next month).
We’ll definitely rent the same space on our next visit!

Eau Claire Trip
The only problem with the property was the living room air conditioning was not working making that very uncomfortable. Also the people renting second floor on two different nights were making a lot of noise making it difficult to sleep.

Wedding Week
We stayed at The Barron House when we were in town for my sister's wedding. The house is perfect, the hosts were accessible and easy to work with. During a wind storm a tree branch split and was hanging low over the parking area. We notified the hosts and it was cut down immediately.
