My family and I truly enjoyed staying at the Madeline - . From the moment you walked into the property, it was very welcoming and it felt like a home away from home. The attention to details, like the welcome sign, water and snacks, to the activities book filled with many activities and things to do in the area to Mr. Jackson private chef services was just simply outstanding. The home is well kept and anytime questions we had Mr. Jackson was just a phone call away. The private chef experience was nothing short of amazing, he listened, prepared what we asked and delivered white glove service. We will definitely stay again and employ his chef services.

Gorgeous home!

Your home is absolutely stunning! The decor is up to date and exceeded my expectations by far. We loved everything about it from the moment we walked in and loved all the extra touches that went into preparing the home for us. We loved the game room and it was a bit hit at night when we were just hanging out together. Thank you for making the entire process easy and truly making us feel welcome and on vacation. You were a delight to “work with” and can’t thank you enough for letting us stay in your home!

Lafayette Graduation Weekend

House was clean and beautiful. Anthony was reachable and very attentive to our needs. We had our 85 year old mothers with us, two adult children and last minute my sister ( my sons Godmother) decided to come. Was not trying to hide or sneak anyone in, but this was picked up on the “ring doorbell camera “ and we were called out on this! Creepy to me that we were being monitored and watched by the owners .

Thank you for a great review, and we are glad to hear that the house was clean and beautiful. We take the safety of our guest very seriously, and as such, we have security cameras located on the exterior of our property. These cameras are denoted on our listing, and they are only used to help keep our guest safe. When a guest does not declared extra guest it violates our rules, and compromises your safety. Thanks again, and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay.

A Little Family R&R

My family and I were looking for a last minute getaway for a couple of days of rest and relaxation. We found a place that seems to be the perfect fit. The house is beautiful, very clean and spacious with sunny rooms all throughout. Our host, Mr. Anthony, was a most gracious and attentive host. He made it clear he was available day or night if we had any needs or concerns, and he was. He made us all feel welcome as soon as we arrived with little personal touches like a welcome sign specifically for our family. There was even a hand written thank you note along with some snacks. We enjoyed our stay so much we added a few more days to our time here. If you are looking for an amazing place to relax and have some peace and quiet, look no further.
