    — The Details —
    Welcome to Madison Manor, a rare whole-house downtown stay. Madison Manor I and II are two halves of the same Italianate-style home built in 1870, offering an unbeatable combination of location, character, and standout amenities — ideal for larger groups who want to stay together without feeling crowded. Inside, historic charm meets modern comfort with exposed brick and thoughtful décor. The well-equipped kitchen includes pantry basics and everything you need for easy meals at home.

    Curated spaces throughout the home invite you to unwind after a day of exploring. Spend evenings soaking in the hot tub beneath pergola café lights, gathering around the fire pit, or enjoying movies, games, and friendly competition indoors. The home is pet-friendly, making it easy to include your four-legged companion on riverside strolls or hikes at nearby Clifty Falls. Thorough cleaning protocols between guests ensure a spotless and sparkling stay.

We had a wonderful time! The house was super cute and there was more than enough room for all of us! We had 6 adults and 4 kids. The kids especially loved all the games! It was great being able to walk to river and to the downtown area! Definitely recommend!
