We enjoyed our stay at Richard’s place with our group. The location was close enough to the university, but in a quiet area with a lot of privacy. The listing was accurate and clean. We highly recommend this stay for anybody traveling to Madison with a large group

The house was great! Roomy enough for everyone to spread out. The house had everything we needed to prep for the various events for my son's wedding. The property was on a beautiful lotand the neighborhood was very quiet. Richard was very responsive when we accidentally tripped the circuit breaker. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful conveniently located home for a large family

This vacation rental was perfect for our family visit to Madison. The 6 bedrooms easily accommodated our group. The setting is perfect, with easy access to the university, the Capitol and the lakes. The secluded wooded property makes you feel like you’re in rural Wisconsin, although it is situated in the city. There is abundant wildlife, including herons, turkeys and deer. The home makes you feel as if it is a family dwelling with its’s comfortable furnishings, games and beautifully stocked kitchen. I recommend it highly for a large family or group!

Magical home and property

We had a delightful stay in Madison. The home was wonderfully quirky. The yard was huge; my corgi loved his walks outside! Geese, turkeys, rabbits, and squirrels visited. The kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere, great art, living and dining area for times together, and different spaces for when we had to work. The home was 4 minutes from Whole Foods. And an easy drive to the university, botanical gardens, and amazing restaurants.

Amazing/Historical House with lots of room!

With needing a large space to sleep many folks from out of town for our son's wedding, it was a perfect fit. The home was even better than expected with bonus places to sleep, and plenty of room for everyone.
