Great stay at this perfect home

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at Nancy's home. She was a great host, super responsive, friendly and she even left us coffee, fruit, danish, eggs! So incredibly thoughtful! She even borrowed a rice cooker for us to to use for the weekend! The home is well decorated, super cozy and the kitchen is well stocked. The fireplace was such a nice bonus since we literally sat by the fire every night. The house is so clean and stocked with everything you could need. I highly recommend renting from Nancy. You will love it! We can't wait to be back!

Charming and clean

This property was very clean and exactly what my family and I needed for our visit. Nancy was a great host, very accommodating and generous. Beds were very comfortable, love the screened in porch and the neighborhood was quiet and cute. Will definitely be reaching out again next time we come to Madison. Thanks for the kringle!

Great home for a weekend with friends

The location and size of this property was just right for a weekend getaway with friends. The fully screened back porch was gorgeous on a summer night complete with lightning bugs! The location was great for accessing the arboretum as well as anything you'd want to do in the Madison area. The house was very neat and clean and had everything we needed including some extra treats to welcome us. The host was very communicative and caring! A great place to relax and unwind.
