Best downtown location! Stablemaster’s Quarters. Awarded winning! Come see why…

This historic building was originally one of the city’s horse stables and has recently been converted into apartments. The new furnishings, bathrooms and kitchen will be appreciated yet the historic charm is blended within.

This fun river town will remind you of years gone by. Come see why Ladie’s Home Journal awarded Madison “ prettiest small town in the midwest”. Chicago Tribune says it’s “the best preserved midwest town”.

This historic building originally was one of the city’s stables in circa 1886. It’s now a blend of barnwood contemporary and vintage charm with so many amenities!
New renovations, large gathering area and luxury furnishings will leave you wanting to stay longer. Come see why guests say they don’t want to leave!! There’s 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a fully furnished kitchen, laundry area and the BEST location that you will love!

Best Short-Term Rental We Have Been To

Great property, great location, and amazing hosts. Incredible attention to detail and service. It would take too long to describe everything that impressed us so I'll just say it's all perfect and if this place is available when you're visiting Madison, stop searching and just book it.

All was lovely. Location perfect for a stroll on the riverfront and for walking to dinner. Loved listening to the church bells. Communication was great and the apartment was perfect. Warm blueberry muffins were so delicious.

Our stay was absolutely perfect! Check-in was super easy and stress-free, and the place itself was beautiful—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described (if not better!). Every little detail was thoughtfully taken care of, which made it feel like a true home away from home. Suzie was an amazing host—warm, welcoming, and always quick to respond. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

We had a GREAT stay. Suzie and Ron are wonderful hosts, from the beginning to the end of our stay.We were able to check in early, when we walked in, my favorite artist was playing and a dish of warm delicious cookies were on the stove waiting for us. On our last night we got a text asking us what time we wanted the home made blueberry muffins Ron was making delivered in the morning. So many nice surprises, too many to list. Highly recommend Stablemaster's Quarters, you can't go wrong.

Hanover College

Came for graduation from Hanover College. Instead of normal hotel, decided we needed more space for the weekend. Suzie had the rental in great shape with lots of conveniences of home (and more) there and ready for us. Location was great to walk around Madison and the riverfront. Great time and place.

On our 1st night there, my husband slipped and fell on a step directly outside the bedroom door. Spent 5 hours in er. 8 stitches, facial fractures and fractured pelvis. Needless to say our trip was pretty bad after that. Down lightning or motion lights would helped at that step. Otherwise it may have been a great stay.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

This property has everything we wanted and more! On top of the cleanliness, central location, ease of checkout, fair price, and beautiful details, the stable house was so incredibly inviting and cozy! On top of that, the hosts provided the utmost hospitality including fresh baked goods and some pantry and toiletry items available for use. Come for a great weekend away! You won’t be disappointed!
