Handmade local amenities-natural soaps & spa products by award winning Fountain Alley BodyCare in Madison

The space
On designated Scenic Highway. This home was once an early trading post with a ferry that would cross the Ohio River. It had gambling and was used back then for hourly or overnight stays. It sets outside city limits and besides the busy highway during the daytime hours, it’s quiet and peaceful. Boats welcome.
Just outside of historic Madison Indiana, a stellar community, on historic registry, and just a beautiful place to go with shopping and restaurants and a state park!

Guest access
Whole house including laundry room, large west side yard, short wooded trail behind home. The highway gets busy, be careful!

Other things to note
The highway is close and busy in the day. Pulling in and out of the driveway should be exercised with extreme caution. Children and elderly, pets, should be watched to stay away from the busy highway.
ANOTHER CAUTION: tall people be aware that the down stairs bathroom has a low clearance doorway, the stairway is low clearance, and a few beams throughout the home are low clearance.

The sleeping arrangements are: there is one completely private room with a twin and full sized bed. The master bedroom- with king bed- one must go through to get to the private room with the 2 beds. There is a hide a bed couch in the great room. The master bedroom is the nicest room but again it is open to the guest bedroom so not super private but roomy and the best view with sliding doors. This master bedroom has no door but is upstairs. See photos

Short Getaway

We loved the lay out of the two sets of tables and chairs and two sitting areas, kitchen area in between. Lots of windows to enjoy the light on the river at sunset and sunrise. A cozy place for hanging out and close to things to do. Appreciated also the history of it.

Lovely place with a view.

Lovely place. Didn’t realize all the bedrooms were upstairs but we made it work with the pull out sofa for one of our older friends. Loved the water view. Very peaceful. WiFi and phone signal was minimal. Plenty of space and seating. Great appliances.

Beautiful stay by the Ohio River

This was a wonderful house with gorgeous views of the Ohio River. We sat for hours in the evening on the front porch watching barges. The view was particularly magnificent because it was fall, so foliage was brilliant. The house had spacious but cozy rooms to hang out, eat and watch TV in. Beds and bedrooms were very comfortable with a great views. The house was close to beautiful Madison, with good restaurants and a riverside park. Sonia was delightful--so helpful and friendly, but very respectful of her guests' privacy. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay here!

Quaint place with fantastic river views

This is a very charming place. Only about 2 miles from downtown Madison. Great views of the river, particularly from the front porch. It is on a fairly busy road but we weren’t there during the day and the traffic is light at night. It was very clean. Sonia, the host, is very easy to work with. Recommend this for a small family or group of friends.

About the host

Hosted by Sonia Folkner

We live just 1/2 hour from Madison, raised our two children on our farm, and now we love to travel but mostly we work at our Award Winning Store in Downtown Madison. Fountain Alley BodyCare. We do have another VRBO in Georgetown Florida is you're ever in the Neighborhood!

Why they chose this property

This property is close to town, yet secluded except for the Highway. It gets busy during travel for work time, but then minimal traffic. It is SO relaxing to sit on the porch and rock or swing and watch the barges go by. We changed even the floor in this home, so even though it is historical, it is also like new for most of it. It's aired, cleanable and clean.
