Best breakfast. The little things that were provided (warm bathroom towels, comfortable bed, patio outside our room just for us to enjoy) added to our wonderful 3 day get away in Madison. Don't want to forget the freshly made popcorn in the evening we so enjoyed.

The Homestead is a gem. I’ve been to countless B&Bs and Inns and few are in this category of quality, comfort and friendliness. Can’t beat the location with access to beach, hiking, boating, shopping, great dining, history… The rooms are nicely decorated with comfy beds, high end sheets (I’m picky) and nice sized bathrooms. The vitamin infused shower head with strong water pressure was amazing. Ralph and his staff bent over backward to ensure we were comfortable, well fed and prepared for whatever activity we were choosing that day. Doesn’t get better than this. I’m looking forward to my next visit.
