Our arrival was so far beyond our expectations! From the fresh from the oven cookies, our favorite music playing and the warm glow of the fireplace above the soaking tub, we were mesmerized. Every possible need was met. No need to rush out because you forgot to pack something, Suzie has you covered. The decor was top notch, clean, and well planned out. We especially loved the original brick wall where you could find little hidden treasures (we may have even added our own). Upon our departure, we had delicious warm muffins with cute little bunny picks in them waiting for us on the landing for breakfast. This is by far the best VRBO experience we have ever had!

Suzie and Ron and excellent hosts! You won’t find a better place to stay in Madison…although, I told Suzie I was going to stop spreading this around because her places are always booked when I want to reserve them (Lol). We have stayed at both Livery Loft & the Stablemaster’s Quarters. Both are exquisitely decorated inside & out! The flowers are beautiful! Suzie thinks of everything a traveler may need during their stay and then some. If you’re looking for a centrally located, gorgeous place to stay with an amazing host, look no further!

Suzie was fabulous! She went above and beyond to make our stay so enjoyable. The Livery was even better in person. So beautiful and cozy. Every detail was so thoughtful. We really enjoyed the home made baked goods and snacks. The beds were SO comfortable! But wait, there’s more: the soaking tub with the fireplace, the rain shower with jets, the heated light-up toilet seat, etc… The location was very convenient. We were literally around the corner from Main Street and the many shops and restaurants. We also walked to the winery and the riverfront. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

Magical time in Madison

We had a great time in Madison. We can't stop talking about our trip and our host Suzi. Not only were we greeted with home made cookies and blueberry muffins the next day, she hid an Easter Basket for each of us. The Loft had everything that we needed and more. The location is awesome we could walk everywhere we wanted to go.

I could not have asked for a better experience than what I, and my group, had with Suzie and her property. From the day I booked our trip to the day we checked out, everything was amazing. Suzie is the kindest, most responsive host I have ever encountered and she went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The Livery Loft is a beautifully restored property and was extremely comfortable. I highly recommend anyone planning a stay in Madison, IN to rent one of Suzie's properties during their stay.

The best part of our stay was, without a doubt, our incredible host, Suzanne! From the moment we arrived, she made us feel completely at home with her warm hospitality and thoughtful touches. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and provided fantastic recommendations while we were visiting Hanover University.

Suzie brought us hot, homemade Blueberry muffins on Sunday morning, what a special, delicious treat. She had done some research with events for the weekend.

The attention to detail in the Loft was unreal. She made our stay so comfortable and enjoyable and everything we needed was there for us. I can't think of one thing she did not think of to make our stay any more enjoyable. The Loft is close to downtown and made everything easy and accessible to us.
