Things to do
Football stadiums and family-friendly zoos: touch down into fun!
A Madison vacation rental offers something for everyone, from a day at the Henry Vilas Zoo, to a tour of the historic Wisconsin State Capitol. Get your body moving with a leisurely walk down State Street, downtown's pedestrian-only thoroughfare dotted with restaurants, cafes, and shops. Looking to add a bit of culture to your life? Madison offers top-notch performances, including opera, live theater, and ballet, at the Overture Center for the Arts. School days are alive and well at the University of Wisconsin's campus, home to a renowned art museum, an arboretum, and spirited football fans at Camp Randall Stadium.
Activities
From boating to beer fests, Madison is buzzing year-round
When the weather's warm, local lakes are filled with sailboats and swimmers, while hikers and picnickers soak up some rays in city parks. During the summer, the capitol hosts a farmers' market in the Capitol Square and free weekly concerts on the lawn. Get ready to hoist your stein at the annual summer event, the Great Taste of the Midwest craft beer festival. The fun doesn't end with the arrival of snow so bundle up and set out for an afternoon of ice skating, ice hockey, ice fishing, and cross-country skiing during the winter months.
Weather
Sunny summers, frosty winters, and everything in between
Bundle up if you're booking your Madison vacation rental for the winter when daytime highs can dip below freezing and heavy snowfall occurs, particularly from December through February. Conditions start to warm up by late spring as temperatures reach the high 60s and steady rain keeps the flowers blooming. You'll be looking to cool off with a dip in the lake by summer, when temps can soar to the 90s, heavy rains fall, and humidity is high. The cooling-off period starts again in the fall, with highs dropping as low as the mid-40s.
Natural features
A watery menagerie of sparkling lakes and rivers
A complex sequence of waterways run through Madison, including the Yahara River, which connects many of the area lakes. While Lakes Monona and Mendota sit in the heart of the city, Lake Wingra shares a shoreline with some popular attractions _ the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum and Henry Vilas Zoo _ and neighboring Lakes Waubesa and Kegonsa bustle with outdoor adventure seekers. Soak up views of the skyline from various spots around the city, including Picnic Point, a peninsula that jets out into Lake Mendota. County parks and nature preserves offer marshland, wooded regions, and prairies for further exploration.
