The Cactus Club, 2496 S. Wentworth Ave., remodeled the apartment above the Bay View music venue into a "time capsule greenroom apartment" and it is now available for rent. Originally, it was remodeled in February 2020 for bands and artists to stay the night, but the owner is now offering a limited-time opportunity for the public to rent the greenroom.
"It's a cozy blast from the past. The kitchen carpet, drop ceiling and faux brick is original, dating back to the 50s. Wood paneling, crystal bathroom lighting, a rotary phone, antique bar station and beautiful old windows enhance the feel," reads the recent post on social media.
The apartment also has features like brand new, full-size bunkbeds and bathroom tile. The cost per night is $200 and includes:
- 4 batched cocktails + 12 pack of beer
- Private access to backyard fire pit & picnic table + s'mores kit
- Historical guided tour of the club (if desired; masks absolutely required)
There is a four guest maximum. The offer runs until May 1, 2021. Email Kelsey at cactusclubmke@gmail.com to reserve a date.
