This property has a long history and we were determined to keep that history while updating towards a more modern, welcoming look. Constructed in 1891 during the waning years of logging in Eau Claire, the David P. Graves 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 original decorative gable trim featured on the front two gables.  
  
With updated amenities guests will feel right at home. During the summer guests can enjoy a beautiful three seasons patio and short walks to local parks.
