(Corona virus concerns? -- I do all the cleaning myself, so I know the place is kept very clean. For example, I use sanitizing wipes on all of the door knobs, light switches and TV remotes throughout the house. I use a fabric disinfectant spay on all the furniture and throw pillows. The towels, sheets and blankets are washed with a sanitizing soap and dried extra long at high heat in the dryer. I have hand sanitizing soap and wipes available for the guests to use. I would argue that my place is one of the best germ-free places you could be). ______________________________________________________________ Features: Two car garage, one off street parking spot and additional street parking - Screened in porch with a great view overlooking Madison - Patio with a gas grill - Two fire places. - Sauna - Four large smart TV's with Amazon Prime, Netflix And Hulu - High speed wireless internet - Central air conditioning - Washer and dryer - Fully stocked kitchen - Dishwasher - Clean comfortable furniture. ______________________________________________________________ Master Bedroom Loft - King size bed - 50" smart TV with amazon prime - Fireplace - Bathroom with unique walk in shower and Sauna.

This is a unique home that is super clean and had everything needed to cook, entertain (we played games & watched football) and accommodate any family. The location was close to downtown, the interstate, and airport. Plenty of restaurants were nearby as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay again.
The house is amazing! Very clean, with a funky, vintage charm to it. Instructions were clear and reasonable. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for something a little offbeat.

It was a very nice place. Clean, spacious, unique and quiet.
Very good communication, quick response from host whenever I had questions.
We definitely recommend this place and love to stay again if we have a chance.
This house is so fun! Could be considered my dream home. Vaulted ceilings, beautiful windows and a cozy retro feel. It had everything we needed and is located in a great neighborhood!
This property was perfect. It was full of character and even had well cared for house plants. Loved that the patio had a ceiling so we could sit there during the rain. All beds were super comfortable. I just can’t think of anything negative!
Excellent housing and service from the property manager! The great room in this A-frame reminds me of my old ski days and the suburban location brings you closer to local entertainment, interesting venues and shops.
We really enjoyed staying in this unique and comfortable house. It's a great base for exploring Madison, and Josh has given the house itself a very imaginative and artistic charm that enhanced our trip.
I'll definitely be coming back to this place! It was a good time with family and friends, and Josh made everything easy for us! Much appreciation towards the man!
The cabin was absolutely spotless and well equipped. The owner was an excellent communicator - we did it all by email. The expectations for maintaining and checking out were very reasonable. I recommend this stay to anyone!
Location wasn't too bad, just off of the beltline. Probably a reasonable walking distance to restaurants and stores on fish hatchery road, but we drove due to the weather. The house is very nice, especially the upstairs loft.
The house was beautiful and incredibly clean. My family and I loved it and would absolutely rent it again. Josh was a tremendous host. He was responsive and an absolute pleasure to deal with.
This property was absolutely amazing! Josh was very responsive and directions were very thorough. I would definitely stay here again if I come back to the area.
The cleanliness and thoroughness of the owner made this trip easy and enjoyable. The house was beautiful and unique. I will definitely stay there next time I’m in Madison.
Perfect for a relaxing weekend - everyone loved the house. Everything was very clean, rooms are spacious, and the neighborhood is quiet. Host left very clear notes and instructions for everything. We would definitely stay here again!
This house was just what we needed for our girls trip! House was very clean and easy location to Uber or drive to local restaurants and bars. Very comfortable house, in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room for us to lounge and hang out!
House was as described. Close to everything in Madison . Big kitchen, bedrooms were comfortable. Living area and porch were nice. Josh was a great host, and would definitely stay there again

About the host
Hosted by Josh
I have owned what I call the Arbor Hill House for 20 years. I have recently refurbished the interior and have prepared it to be used as a vacation rental. My goal is to turn the home into a very unique and comfortable place for my guest's to use as their home-base when visiting Madison. It will always be a work in progress with the hopes of turning it into the best vacation rental that it can be. I will usually be nearby to help my guest with anything they may need. I'll look forward to hearing any suggestions from my guests about how I can make this a great place to stay.
