  • Introduction

    Otter Creek Inn - Eau Claire, Wisconsin

    When you spy this Wisconsin inn from the roadside, you'll be impressed by the charm of its unique setting. The Inn is located high above, but adjacent to, the Otter Creek in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Tucked in among huge trees on a wooded hill, the Otter Creek Inn bed and breakfast beckons with a warm welcome. Whether you're looking for a winter getaway or a summer getaway, this romantic inn has much to offer. The one-acre wooded lot (all located within the Eau Claire, WI city limits) abounds with flowers in the summer, provides a panorama of colored leaves in the fall, and glistens under a snow covered blanket during the Wisconsin winter. This spacious (nearly 6,500 square feet) English Tudor three-story inn is decorated in an inviting, romantic, country Victorian decor.

    It will enfold you in an aura of yesteryear but will provide you with all the lodging comforts of today. Each guest room is designed as a romantic getaway with a private restroom and a double whirlpool. Many guest rooms also have a fireplace. We serve full breakfasts every day of the week. Our breakfast menu allows a choice of entrees, serving times, and location to dine. You might enjoy your breakfasts in bed, in the privacy of your room, or in the common area meeting other guests.

    The Otter Creek Inn is one of the longest operating Wisconsin bed and breakfasts in existence, opening its door for lodging guests in the spring of 1987. In 2003, this Wisconsin inn was voted one of the top fifteen bed and breakfasts with the friendliest innkeepers in the USA.

    Its location is convenient for the many things the Eau Claire Wisconsin area has to offer. There are fine shopping centers, live theatre, community parks, UW Eau Claire, Lake Altoona, the Chippewa River, and over 100 restaurants within a three-mile radius of the Otter Creek Inn bed and breakfast.
