Great Stay in Madison
We were visiting our daughter for the weekend and found this rental in a neighborhood we've never been in before. It was very nice, with a very popular coffee shop/bakery just steps away. The house itself was very clean and well appointed. Communication with the owner was very efficient. We would definitely stay there again.

Neighborhood Gem!
I've never stayed in this part of Madison before and what a treat it was! Loved that we had a cool neighborhood bar/pub, coffee shop/bakery AND a breakfast diner all within a block. Property was as advertised, well stocked, very convenient, lots of street parking right out front and on side street. We also appreciated that the cabinets were all marked for easy access to everything we could have possibly needed during the stay. The unit itself was quite comfortable and fairly quiet even being on a busier street. Will definitely be a go-to spot for future trips!

This property was really nice, great curb appeal, inside updated, very clean and cute. Beds comfortable, kitchen with all amenities and within 15 minutes of golfing, pickleball and State street. On-site street parking adequate. The owner responded to questions very quickly by phone. I would recommend this VRBO and come back again.

Perfect for us
Nicely remodeled home with first floor as VRBO. We really liked the location, so easy to get to and in quiet neighborhood. Nice sized living room, dining and kitchen area. Furnishings were first rate and in very good condition. Communication with Tim, property manager, was efficient and clear. It is an old home so bedrooms are small, storage is a bit of a challenge. That said, all was very nice, we very much enjoyed the stay. We’ll be back soon!

Special property, beautiful space and cool location.
Absolutely a great space! Welcoming, cozy, modern and we found ourselves wanting to spend time at the property, vs. being on the go entirely each day. We were there for four nights and found ourselves hanging in a bit, making dinner there, lighting a candle, watching a moving playing cards enjoy time together at the property.

Great place, close to downtown and the airport
It’s a great little place in a great neighborhood. Very clean, very well appointed, and very comfortable and well decorated. The host (Tim) was very nice and communicative throughout our stay. There were problems with the thermostat when we arrived, he was very responsive and got it fixed early the next morning. The neighborhood is cute and very walkable, with nearby parks and places to eat, and just a short drive to downtown.

Nice place to stay!
Great place and location for a stay in Madison. Very nicely updated and very comfortable. The owners do live in the upstairs unit. This was not clear in the description. This did make it feel more like a bed and breakfast feel where you didn’t feel like you had the whole place and you can hear the upstairs movement/activity. We did stay with a pet. This lead to the cleaning fee plus the extra pet cleaning fee to cost as much as the rental fee. This was not clear upon our reservation. I’d suggest that part of the pet cleaning fee be refunded if there was no mess left. We left the unit super clean, with little to no dog hair. There was no reason for a high per night cleaning fee to be charged. Nice unit, but for a pet friendly unit the total end cost was not friendly.
