The house was comfortable and pleasant to stay in and covenant to shopping and restaurants the host was very helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay in Madison Indiana.
Everything about this property was just as expected. We had 7 adults stay and there was plenty of space for all of us. It was in close proximity to everything we needed for our stay. David even had coffee for us to drink in the morning. Everything about our stay was great and we all said we would stay here again.
Our host, David, was very responsive and friendly. He truly made our stay memorable. Addition, the house is large and welcoming. There was plenty of space for my husband, myself, and our two granddaughters, not to mention our small dog, Teddy. It’s also an historic home which adds a special ambiance.
Fantastic location, close to charming shops and beautiful walks, near a stunning state park. Plenty of comfortable space to hang out and decompress after our day adventures. The historic home is beautifully appointed. The stairs were no problem for our group, but might be too steep for small children or someone with mobility limitations.Check-in was a breeze, and the host was thorough, responsive and kind. We came for a conference, but I would definitely return for a holiday weekend, and happy to stay at this home.
We had a great time. The house was perfect for our family catching up. This house is a beautiful older house and the property manager was so helpful! Highly recommend it and would stay here again.
The location was great, we were able to walk to dinner both evenings as well as the Main Street shops and wineries. We also spent a morning at Cliffty Falls state park just a few minutes drive away. Parking on the street was easy and there was plenty of space for 3 cars we brought for our trip birthday trip.

Thank you for your review! I’d love to have you back again to earn that 5th star. I’ll even provide a neutral smelling body soap. I typically hold off on providing that due to different skin tolerances.
Ideal location - safe, convenient, super attractive area for a girls trip stay. Great walking distance to downtown, riverwalk, and short drive to hiking at Clifty Falls.

Nice town, charming home in a great location with an exceptional host! We would not hesitate to stay here again. We enjoyed the shops and restaurants while visiting. On our next trip (and there will be one!), we will plan to tour some of the historic homes and take a ride on the river.

Thank you for your stay and your review! I have since replaced the recliner with two reading chairs. I also added night stands and lamps in the two spare bedrooms.
If you enjoy staying within walking distance to shops, restaurants, entertainment and the river walk this house is a perfect spot. The beds were very comfortable. David, our host, was a attentive.

About the host
Hosted by David Couch
The owner was born and raised in here Madison. Once graduating from Indiana University, he moved to pursue his career. Madison was always been his home away from home, and he visited often to see his mother. He always wanted his family to appreciate what Madison, Indiana has to offer so we would visit often to see his mother. His mother's home burnt down in January of 2021, so it was then that he came to realize that having a home in Madison became a priority. So, when he bought this home, he and his family also bought their primary residence on the hill as well. Madison became no longer a place to visit, as it also became their hometown again.
Why they chose this property
This property was a true find!! There really wasn't much to do with the home as it was built so well. The architect was no other than Francis Costigan, which built his very own primary residence next door, which is part of the historical society.
So, why this property? The town, the history, the builder, the neighbors, the and the location is why the family purchased this home. The back yard is also a thing of beauty as it feels like a courtyard setting within the quaint downtown area.
What makes this property unique
The benefits are location, location, location. You are walking distance to parks, the Broadway Fountain, downtown shopping, antiquing, river, winery's and other historical homes within the area.
