Short-Term Rental Management in Eau Claire & Western Wisconsin
Clear Trail Properties manages vacation and short-term rentals in Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley — listings, pricing, guest communication, cleaning, and compliance handled end to end.
Co-host with usWeekend peaks, midweek revenue
Eau Claire is not a pure vacation market. The homes that perform best combine event-week weekend pricing with midweek business, medical, and university demand — two strategies running on the same calendar.
Our operating standard comes from our home portfolio in Rome and Nekoosa, marketed as The Rome Collective — in-house turnovers, inspections before every arrival, and group bookings across multiple homes.
What we handle
Listing setup & optimization
Photo direction and listing copy built for Chippewa Valley demand — university weekends, festival traffic, river-town leisure, and extended business stays.
Dynamic pricing
Graduation, move-in weekends, and summer music events carry the calendar. Midweek business travel fills the gaps when rates are set for it.
Guest screening & communication
Inquiry response, screening, house rules, arrival instructions, and in-stay support handled by our team.
Cleaning & inspections
Vetted local cleaning partners on a schedule we manage, with an inspection before every arrival.
Maintenance coordination
Trades scheduling for HVAC, plumbing, appliances, and seasonal work.
Lodging tax & compliance
Room tax filings plus municipal short-term rental registration and rules.
Multi-channel distribution
Airbnb, VRBO, and direct booking on a single synced calendar.
Markets we serve
