Beautiful Home With Amazing Amenities

We loved this VRBO. The house was beautiful and had every single amenity you could imagine. It was exceptionally clean and well kept. The fridge was stocked with sauces and condiments and the kitchen had every pot/pan/utensil anyone could need. The patio overlooking the river was a wonderful spot to hang out. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect Stay

We absolutely loved our stay at Doll House and we were all amazed at all the details and all the considerations that the hosts took in making sure the guests are happy. By far the best Vrbo we have ever stayed at, based on how well stocked everything is, the house, the rooms, the yard, the location etc. Perfect!! We hope to visit again soon.

Excellent time at the dollhouse.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed are stay. The boat dock was great for my kids to fish off of and the near by bait shop was nice. It was a great location just 10 minutes or so from downtown Madison. Nick and Shirley were quick to get back with us to answer any questions we had. I highly suggest staying at this location. It is very peaceful place to stay.

Almost felt like we were on the ocean!

The great location on the river made our morning coffee on the deck a relaxing way to start the day. Comfortable beds and well supplied kitchen (plus delicious cheese in the fridge) helped make the weekend visiting our son perfect.

Dollhouse

We so enjoyed our stay at this wonderful place. Nice amenities and it was well stocked. Loved being on the river for great fishing and a boat parade. The owners were great to us and understanding of a health crisis we faced. We would love to stay there again.

Amazing perfect tental

Only 7 minutes to the expo center where we were attending the world dairy expo so location was great. Food and groceries were close as well as downtown Madison. The house was stocked better than my own not missing a thing. This was definitely the best rental I’ve ever stayed in.
