4th of July long weekend
This is a very spacious home with plenty of room to spread out. We had 3 kids ranging in age from 14 to 18 months. We appreciated the fact that the downstairs bedrooms are completely separate and away from the game/TV/hot tub because the baby could sleep and not hear us enjoying the other part of the downstairs. We also enjoyed the indoor hot tub because it would have been too hot to enjoy an outdoor hot tub. Scott the owner was very helpful with pre-arrival details and check in

Scott Hosts an Amazing Place
We were in Madison for a swim meet and stayed at Scott’s place with another swim family. The house easily sleeps 8. I would say t could comfortably handle 12 with air mattresses. Hot tub was amazing. Kids played ping pong and pool for hours. Thanks for eating us stay Scott. It was awesome.

Rescheduled family gathering
This property was a great backdrop for our rescheduled family Christmas. The home was well maintained, clean and very roomy. The twin home was not a problem as we didn’t see or hear the resident next door. Private, quiet, we were there during a 1ft snowstorm. Deer crossed the back property in the morning.. Scott was a nice guy and took good care of us. A great stay.

We’d stay again. Lots of space. Plenty of beds. Lots to do in the house. Good internet. Good parking. If we’re honest, some of the beds were overly firm and there were more insects than expected.

We enjoyed our stay. The beds were all comfortable and we had plenty of linens and towels. The kitchen had everything that we needed and our two grandkids loved the recreation room on the lower level. The two dogs enjoyed exploring the large backyard (on a leash). We would stay here again.

This is a lovely home in a serene setting.
We came to visit our son in Madison. Our other son came along at the last minute. The spacious living space and tranquil yard were wonderful to come back at the end of the day in Madison. We played ping pong and euchre and enjoyed hanging out as a family.
I highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the Madison area. Also, checkout the Madison arboretum!

Beautiful property! Spacious, clean, comfortable with friendly, helpful owner.
This property gives the feel of living in a spacious, modern unit surrounded by country. Although the location has the feeling of being deep in nature, restaurants and shopping are a convenient, short drive.
The owner is very friendly and made the process simple. If you are looking to stay in Wisconsin, I highly recommend this property.
