“I noted that this property stands out as a boutique experience in the Wausau River District, with its access to downtown events and vibrant nightlife. The location is within striking distance of the Wausau Museum of Contemporary Art and outdoor parks. I think the refined dining at the on-site CHAR Grillhouse really complements the well-designed event spaces.”
