Our Story

Randy likes to say that at the age of 51, he discovered the career he should have pursued at the age of 23. What started out as a fanciful conversation about opening an inn has turned into a life-altering journey within the hospitality industry. Now, almost 15 years removed from that first BnB conversation in Door County, Randy and Sara have opened seven properties across three states and consulted with several dozen BnBs around the country.

Third Street Lofts is their newest entry into the lodging world and their second vacation rental. But this one is dramatically different than the Owl Ridge Cabin, which was a very contemporary new build located out in the country. This one is a unique blend of a historic structure, a downtown loft, and a contemporary condo. Besides the architecture, what appealed to Randy and Sara about Third Street Lofts was the downtown location and the opportunity to offer a place for a couple, a family, or a group of friends to spend time together in the privacy of one space with a kitchen and living room. They saw this as something unique to downtown Wausau and very appealing to a segment of the market they weren’t serving at the Stewart Inn or Owl Ridge Cabin.

If all goes as planned, we hope this will be the first of several amazing places downtown. Stay tuned!
