This is our second time staying here and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The house is stocked with everything you need and Joan is a terrific host. Our stay was during some bitter cold weather and she checked on us a couple of times to make sure we were warm and safe. The property is beautiful, even in the winter!

Best of Everything

The house was just perfect for our long weekend in the Madison area. The property is on the edge of the farms and still close to all the restaurants and things to do. Having a nice big yard to enjoy really made it for our dog as well. Such a relaxing getaway! We would definitely stay here again.

Great Stay Close to Madison!

We had a peaceful stay at Joan's place. Her home was in a beautiful, quiet rural location yet close to downtown Madison and it's surrounding suburbs. The home was clean and had lots of space (we brought our dogs along too.) Kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals and the yard was perfect for walking our dogs.
