About this property

The Madison

The Madison is just two blocks from downtown Frederick's foodie and cultural scene. This Neo-colonial two bedroom rowhouse was built c. 1860 and reflects the flirty combination of new and old that is the trademark of downtown Frederick. The carefully curated main living space is open and memorably stylish. The kitchen is a chef's dream with tons of light and brand new appliances. Each bedroom was custom designed features top of the line mattresses and down pillows, and each boasting an en suite bath. The spacious backyard has a fire pit and patio seating.

Our stay at The Madison was lovely. The home is charming and fully equipped to handle a anything from a one night stay to an extended getaway. Nearly everything to downtown Frederick is walkable and we enjoyed a few days of great weather to do just so. Check in was extremely easy and the host was quick with response time fielding any questions we had. We loved both rooms with ensuite bathrooms and the comfort of the living room to unwind after a long day. I recommend you pay attention to the on street parking street sweeping times as you WILL get a ticket if you don't take note of them like we did :) I would definitely recommend The Madison to anyone visiting!

Nice cozy home, great for chilling with a friend. But be aware - parking on Wednesday night must be across the road to accommodate street cleaning. Cost me 24 because I didn't read page 8 in the handbook until the morning after checking in.

Amazing Stay

This property ended up being 30 min away from where our sports tournament was. However, it was amazing and we are so glad we booked it. Super clean and the location was awesome. Such a cute town with fun shops and restaurants. And the property manager was amazing to work with.

About the host

Hosted by Marisa Nickols

Host profile image
The property is owned, designed and hosted by a husband and wife duo. We love giving people a unique experience, ensuring they have all the comforts that make a vacation memorable!

Why they chose this property

The home is the best of both worlds - in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood and just a short walk from Market St. at the heart of Frederick's foodie and cultural scene.

What makes this property unique

We spent months carefully curating the design of the property. My husband, a creative director with a background in graphic design, got a chance to use his eye for color and style. I got to use my own amateur eye for design, love of literature and art to create a unique experience for our guests. Between the two, we have created an artful balance in this eclectic home. From s'more kits for every guest to a well-equipped kitchen, we pride ourselves on thinking of the details for your best experience.
