My family loves visiting the greater Madison area and found this new gem that came available recently and decided to try it out. We absolutely loved our stay. Home was clean, fully stocked with all kitchen appliances, linens, towels etc. Our kids loved exploring the uniqueness of the house and the property and had a great time playing pool together in the basement! Highly recommend!
