Family emergency

Had a family member in the hospital and had to find something spacious for all of us. Richard was a great host and very accommodating. His place is conveniently located near the hospital and was well stocked for our large group.

Great family gathering house

This house was great! Spacious, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, plentiful spaces for hanging out and conversing/playing games/watching TV, plenty of towels, beautiful yard and patios/decks, nice Solo Stove outside for an evening fire. Great location, short walk to the lake and playgrounds. Richard was responsive to questions. For our next family gathering, we will likely try to book this place again.

Truly spectacular house!

We stayed at the house along with family members. The home was immaculate. Richard was always available by text or email. The bedrooms were beautiful. The kitchen had modern facilities. There were two beautifully decorated dining rooms. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The back porch was supplied with chairs and tables. Our overall experience was terrific. This property was incredible.

Wonderful conveniently located home for a large family

This vacation rental was perfect for our family visit to Madison. The 6 bedrooms easily accommodated our group. The setting is perfect, with easy access to the university, the Capitol and the lakes. The secluded wooded property makes you feel like you’re in rural Wisconsin, although it is situated in the city. There is abundant wildlife, including herons, turkeys and deer. The home makes you feel as if it is a family dwelling with its’s comfortable furnishings, games and beautifully stocked kitchen. I recommend it highly for a large family or group!

Magical home and property

We had a delightful stay in Madison. The home was wonderfully quirky. The yard was huge; my corgi loved his walks outside! Geese, turkeys, rabbits, and squirrels visited. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere, great art, living and dining area for times together, and different spaces for when we had to work. The home was 4 minutes from Whole Foods. And an easy drive to the university, botanical gardens, and amazing restaurants.

Clean, quiet and great location

This house is located close to a Main Street heading to campus but was set back in the woods and very quiet. The house was clean and spacious. We didn’t have an opportunity to cook or hang out much but I would recommend this house.

Amazing House in madison

This home was perfect for our group of 7 visiting for a Wisconsin football game! Plenty of room exists inside of the home allowing for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. However, the best part of the home is the ample outdoor seating area that allowed for great conversation from within our group. You will not be disappointed stay in this home!

A great stay for Ironman Wisconsin!

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this property! As before very clean, plenty of amenities towels, kitchen tools etc. Lots of space to spread out. I love the peaceful wooded lot! It is SO easy to drive back and forth to the Ironman Wisconsin triathlon course, close to downtown and the run turn around on the Howard Temin path. Is also very close to restaurants and grocery stores. Definitely would stay again!

A country stay in the city

This is a great house for gatherings of friends and family. It is conveniently located near all of Madison's cultural and recreational offerings, while tucked away on a hidden cove that provides for a peaceful environmental retreat. The home is well stocked with anything you need. Our party had seven adults, two children, and a dog. The decks and kitchen table provided ample room for conversation. I was also very taken with the cleanliness of the home. Impeccable.

Amazing/Historical House with lots of room!

With needing a large space to sleep many folks from out of town for our son's wedding, it was a perfect fit. The home was even better than expected with bonus places to sleep, and plenty of room for everyone.
