Excellent Place in Perfect Location

This was the cutest place and the hosts were great! Barb was super sweet and made sure we had no issues. Place is exactly like pictured and super clean. If ur heading to Madison and don’t want to stay in the city, this is the perfect place! You’re super close to the city, but you don’t have all of the traffic and noise. It’s a very peaceful place to stay!

Perfect grandparenting home away from home

Barb and Butch have provided every amenity one could ask for, from an initial packet of coffee for morning #1 to just about every kitchen tool imaginable. And the location was delightful... close enough (and far enough) from Madison to make getting in and out of the city easy - and deliciously quiet at night. For us, this wonderful home-away-from-home was just the right choice, giving us plenty of time to be with our newest grandchild - as well as a little quiet time to recuperate from hanging out with a 2-year-old! Already looking forward to another visit!

Penn State Football Roadtrip

Traveling with friends to Madison to attend a Penn State vs Wisconsin football game we found "A touch of country country living" the perfect VRBO for our visit. Well equipped with all the essentials that made our stay comfortable. Communication with the owners was quick and they were responsive to our requests. If traveling to Madison in the future we would definitely stay here again. Thank you Barb and Butch!

Better Than Advertised

We had a business trip to the area and decided to stay at Barbara's place in the country rather than a hotel. That was a great decision. Barbara's place was better than described. We have stayed in many VRBOs over the years, but this was one of the best. Everything was extremely clean. The layout was very well planned and the construction was good. Lighting was wonderful. We would definitely stay again.

Friends and Family Weekend

We loved the beautiful country guest home which was very warm and inviting. Our group had plenty of space to gather, eat, and talk. We drove the short distance to UW-Madison campus to watch football and visit. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality. We had a fantastic weekend.

Cozy Comforts of Home

This sweet little home was just as described. The owners were very accommodating and came to meet us as soon as we arrived. The supplies were very well stocked and we wanted for nothing. Barb & Butch had a notebook full of menus, attractions as well as games and puzzles to occupy our stay. We would recommend this place if you are in the Madison area. I think we were only about 12-15 mins from downtown. We visited the Farmer's Market. A must see if in the area.

A Perfect Touch of Country

Beautiful home with plenty of sitting areas, beautiful patio for morning coffee/evening visiting and drinks. As clean as any place can possibly be! Had trouble with the coffeemaker and let the host know. We had a new one within ten minutes! Awesome response! Home is near most everything on the northeast side of Madison.

Wonderful accommodations and nice people

The owners were very friendly and easy to work with. They put a great deal of effort into making clear instructions, including labeling wall switches for ease of use. Kitchen was well appointed and loads of room. Washer and dryer were bonuses for us as this was the last stop in our tour of WI. Would definitely stay here again.

Family Gathering

Excellent accommodations. Hosts do an excellent job ensuring the property is set up for their guests. We were in town for a family wedding and enjoyed the location as it was close to all the events. Stayed there last year as well for another family event. If you are looking for a location with smaller group, this would certainly fit the bill. Would definitely book again in the future when in the area.
