Wausau is an incredible destination to visit at any time of year, and as such has proven to be a popular and sometimes busy place. People come from all over the Midwest to ski at Granite Peak Ski Area, go hiking and biking, visit our art museums, and generally enjoy the unexpected blend of urban activity and natural beauty that is found here. In downtown Wausau, you’ll find plenty of art and culture, delicious restaurants, bustling boutiques, a delightful riverwalk, and a vibrant nightlife. Combine that with the rural, quaint, yet sophisticated vibe of Wausau as a whole, and you have the perfect getaway destination. Given Wausau’s popularity, it’s best to book your getaways early and often. It goes without saying that the Stewart Inn Boutique Hotel is the best choice for lodging, and we tend to book up well in advance during popular events. It’s still early in 2019, so it’s a great time to book your getaways at Wisconsin’s most beautiful Boutique Hotel today.
