Lovely home

We loved our stay at this property. We visited in the winter so were unable to take advantage of all of the outdoor beauty but the hot tub overlooking the waterway was wonderful. We were in town to experience all that Madison has to offer including a Badger men’s basketball game. Easy access to state street and the Capitol area with short rides. House was clean and well set up with comfortable beds, great bathrooms, and shared areas for enjoying time together. We would definitely return!
