We loved the neighborhood. It was very clean had everything we needed…loved that there was a snack basket with water too! Extra paper towels and toilet paper. We got in late…lots of nice amenities.
Great place, excellent location and close to lots of amenities. Owners were a pleasure to deal with and addressed all of our needs. Would highly recommend this cozy place.
Came to visit our son at UW Madison and this location was perfect! Very quiet neighborhood and only about 12 minutes to campus. Back patio was a great hangout spot with fire pit and grill. Plenty of space and bedrooms for all of us. Clean and everything that we needed was there. Hosts were quick to answer a couple questions and left a nice welcome gift basket. Would highly recommend!
This property is great for friends or family looking to explore the area for a few days! The variety of bedrooms and living spaces was perfect for a group. The kitchen came stocked with plenty of supplies and we really enjoyed grilling on the back patio. The property was in a safe neighborhood and within walking distance of a park to sit by the water. It was a 10-15 minute drive over to Madison. Keith was an accommodating host and thought through many small details that made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Would highly recommend!
We stayed here for a family gathering in the Madison area and it was perfect for us. Great amount of space in a lovely neighborhood and Keith was extremely responsive and helpful. I wish we had found this place while our kids were students at UW instead of shelling out for expensive, cramped hotel rooms.
My sister-in-law, niece and I traveled to visit my daughter who lives in a tiny apartment in Madison. This house gave us inside space and a beautiful yard and patio to hang out and visit. It is located in a very cute, walkable neighborhood within walking distance to the lake.
One afternoon a huge storm hit and knocked down several trees onto power lines, causing us to lose power. The owner was quick to respond and showed up to give us a cooler, ice packs, flashlights and even thought of bringing us phone chargers. So we went out to dinner, played board games by flashlight for the evening and power was restored by the time we awoke the next morning.
The house was very clean and nicely appointed and I can't say enough about the kindness and responsiveness of the owner. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we visit.
