My friends and I had a great stay here when we visited Madison. Everything was exactly as described and David made himself more than available for any questions I had. The house is beautiful, and we would absolutely stay here again when we’re back in town! Highly recommend!

My sister, her two daughters and myself met in Madison for a girls weekend. The location of this property was perfect for us because it was close to downtown restaurants and shopping. We love the property, had everything we needed. Beds are super comfortable and the backyard. Was a great space for us to hang out in the evening.

Not 5 Stars But Could Be and Why We Won’t Book AgainI
Stayed 7 nights. Repeat Madison visitors for 30+ years. Loved the location in Historic District. Walking distance to almost everything. Very old and marginally clean. I’m picky. High sided claw foot tub with too small shower curtain was dangerous to enter and exit. It’s the only tub/shower in this rental. It was dirty. Needs safety bars on wall and maybe a step-stool. Needs hooks near sink for hand towels. Cleaners left no hand towels and only 2 bath towels out and we had to hunt them down. Needs new mirror over sink as existing one is in terrible shape. AC unit is LOUD when running. Need a few tables and lamps in living room. Nowhere to put a glass or remote. Stairs are creaky but that’s part of the charm. The wobbly handrail is dangerous. Washer/dryer are LOUD. Cabinet over them is mounted too high to reach and door is broken. Kitchen is almost well-equipped but PLASTIC WINE GLASSES? We’re within steps of 2 wineries in Madison. We found only 2 butter knives in the cutlery drawer. Backyard is nice but flagstone patio is covered in a deep layer of dirt and chairs need paint. As does the outside of building. Grass needed mowing. Host is very nice and lives nearby. These things are easily fixed. Details matter when you want a 5 star review.

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.

Beautiful Madison Historic Home
We had such a nice time in this beautiful home. We were able to walk and explore historic downtown Madison and hike nearby Clifty Falls State Park. The owner was wonderful in his communication, help and thoughtfulness. We enjoyed fun meals at the long dining room table. Our granddaughter was enchanted by the backyard outside warm lights. The beds were clean and comfy. Plenty of towels and washcloths. The living room had plenty of comfortable seating for t.v. viewing and conversation. All people who understand or have lived in old homes knows this fact... there's no way to quietly walk or move around in the night! The floors and stairs squeek and crack loudly, but that is part of its wonderful charm!

Madison is the quintessential charming American small town, and this is in a great location. The property is even better in person than photos can allow. And the back yard is amazing! If you like nice soft beds, you'll find these cozy and comfy.

Charming historic home
My friends and I very much enjoyed our stay in this historic home. We would rate the VRBO as 4.7 stars out of 5 and offer a few suggestions. First and foremost, there should be a sign on the back door saying that the storm door will lock when it latches. I got locked out of the house in the back yard without a key or my cell phone. My friends rescued me, but it could have been really bad. A few little details could make the house more visitor friendly: put a chair and a small trashcan in each bedroom, provide little soaps and shampoos in the bathroom, and sugar and creamer in the kitchen. It would also be nice to have a little shelf in the bathroom to hold the clean towels. These are small suggestions. Overall, the house was well equiped and a joy to stay in.

I reserved this home for a surprise weekend for my wife's birthday along with 6 of our friends. The home was beautiful and the owner very thoughtful of our needs, including a dozen excellent donuts delivered to the house our first morning! The location to downtown is excellent as well, and on a street that isn't too busy. We would definitely stay here again!
