Jake’s place was perfect for our stay, as it was a relaxing, clean and a nice home. The two floor layout worked especially well for our infant daughter so she had a quiet place to sleep, while we could cook and hang out in the living room. The only suggestion to the host is to install curtains along the picturesque sliding doors for a bit of extra privacy at nighttime.
We had a short but fun and comfortable stay here in October. We were close to both the wedding venue and Camp Randall for the Badger game.
The family loved the time together hanging out between activities. The location provided a great space for family pictures too. . Easy to find
Overall a very good place
Close to all we wanted to do.
House clean with all we needed.
View out the back of house of lake beautiful!
Only negative may me front of house on a very busy road .
We needed a rental for our employees to stay at while working at a job in the area. This unit was perfect as men usually don't mind sharing a room but not a bed and this unit had separate beds for our 5 employees.
They enjoyed the comforts of home while away from their families.
Jake was helpful and provided all the information we needed and made check in and checkout very simple.
We had to book in weekly intervals and they were able to accommodate this type of booking which was very helpful.
The place perfectly suited our needs. We especially appreciated the packet with helpful tips on the surrounding area. The property manager was very easy to communicate with and you could tell how much they cared about providing a good experience,
The property was as advertised and wonderful for our many trip to Madison. The host was extremely communicative and I feel sure that had we had any issues, they would have responded immediately. Thank you so much for making our first time to Madison so memorable!
The best thing about this house is its proximity to Madison in general and to the river. I loved taking a kayak out on the river around sunrise. Really beautiful. It's close to many fun activities in Madison too.
The house itself is comfortable. Hosts are responsive and helpful. Kitchen is lovely.
One helpful tip is that this house is on a busy street. There is some traffic noise at night. Not a huge deal but I wish I had known ahead of time and prepared for it.
Overall a good place with lovely hosts.
Everything about our stay was fantastic! The house was nicely decorated and extremely clean. The kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed. Beds were comfy. Shower was great. A perfect place for our group of friends to spend a long weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!
The house was perfect for the 4 adults we had staying. Adorable house; extremely clean and great location. The beds were very comfortable, kitchen was spacious enough for us to make dinner one of the nights. Highly recommend!
We had a great time utilizing the outdoor deck space at the is property! It also had a spacious kitchen and a fun game-themed living space. We were a little bummed that the river water at the dock was green, making it less enticing to use the kayaks and canoe provided but I’m not sure how the property owner could control that. Location was walking distance from some fun bars and restaurants and a short drive to Madison. Close to bike trails too!
Wonderful location and views, and comfortable house!
We were a family of four, and we really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful cottage on the Yahara River. The three bedrooms are tastefully decorated and the beds are comfortable, with nice ceiling fans. The living room is fairly spacious, with a comfortable sitting area and a large TV for watching family movies. We loved having a private dock where my son loved to go fishing. The owners were super friendly and helpful, and their communication was excellent! We loved using the kayaks that came with the property, and had fun boating to local restaurants and bars. This house is also walking distance to several restaurants and cafes. Overall, we stayed for 6 nights and really enjoyed our stay!
We very much enjoyed our stay. The outdoor eating area was lovely on the deck overlooking the water for our group of six, young kids and adults. The inside of the home was very clean and comfortable. Loved the modern, stylish decor!! The location is also excellent close to Madison and so many things to do. Highly recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay at this river front house in Monona. We arrived with 7 adults and a 13 month old baby. It was very clean and decorated so cute! Everything that we needed was provided and the communication from the owner was excellent. The beds were very comfortable. It was a short and easy drive into Madison and a nice grocery store is right down the street! We would definitely stay here again!
The accommodations were accurately reflected by the owner. This husband and wife team were very responsive with inquiries. The many updates to this property make the property highly functional and it's location to the campus and State are convenient.
Jake, owner, was wonderful! He responded quickly, was extremely informative regarding dinner venues and places of interests. Our home was close to wedding venue, and centrally located for points of interest. The patio was beautiful to sit outside overlooking the River. It was mid century vibe which was unique.
We enjoyed our stay and perfect wedding weekend!!
Updated and clean home with access to the Yahara River for fishing and boating. The location allows for quick access to Madison’s best attractions. We took in a Mallards baseball game, visited the Cave of the Mounds, the Memorial Union Terrace, Capital City bike paths and there was so much more to do and see if we had stayed more than 4 days.
Great place to stay if you enjoy treating your family to lake life and all the activities that Madison offers.
This home is beautifully appointed and we enjoyed our weekend here tremendously! Each room was decorated so nicely and the home has a very cozy feel. It was extremely clean and has a nice deck space for relaxing. My family truly enjoyed this property while visiting Madison for the weekend. We had a glitch at check in which was a problem, however the owner rectified the situation promptly. The owners of this home were very helpful and treated us wonderfully! We would definitely stay again!
We rented this house to get ready for my daughter's wedding. The house was perfect, very clean & in an awesome location. Jake was very easy to work with! He ensured our morning went perfect for the big day ahead. Rent this property! You won't regret it!
