Our group consisted of seven adults, one 2-year old child, and the family dog for a wedding and other family events in downtown Madison. Since this was the weekend before classes started at U of W, finding three hotel rooms (one needing to be pet-friendly) was next to impossible, and this property suited our needs very well.Downtown Madison was only about 20 minutes away since this property is near main commuting arteries. Having two bathrooms helped immensely with preparations. The half of the driveway for the duplex accommodates four vehicles for off the road parking. Kitchen adequately handled the needs of our large group. Regarding other comments about this property, realize that this is about a thirty-year-old duplex that was purchased about 18 months ago and is being renovated by the current owners. They also own and are renovating the duplex unit next to it, which accounts for the dumpster and work trucks next door. So, the important things are taken care of (including a 60 gallon water heater, which was great for our large group) and some cosmetic things are being worked on. Whenever we go with a VRBO property, we check Zillow or other real estate website to get sense of the property and its neighborhood. This property is in a very quiet, established, and safe community, being part of several duplexes in a predominantly single-family dwelling community. We walked our dog late at night on sidewalks and in the middle of the street without any concerns.Great!
