We had a GREAT stay. Suzie and Ron are wonderful hosts, from the beginning to the end of our stay.We were able to check in early, when we walked in, my favorite artist was playing and a dish of warm delicious cookies were on the stove waiting for us. On our last night we got a text asking us what time we wanted the home made blueberry muffins Ron was making delivered in the morning. So many nice surprises, too many to list. Highly recommend Stablemaster's Quarters, you can't go wrong.

On our 1st night there, my husband slipped and fell on a step directly outside the bedroom door. Spent 5 hours in er. 8 stitches, facial fractures and fractured pelvis. Needless to say our trip was pretty bad after that. Down lightning or motion lights would helped at that step. Otherwise it may have been a great stay.

Our stay was absolutely perfect! Check-in was super easy and stress-free, and the place itself was beautiful—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described (if not better!). Every little detail was thoughtfully taken care of, which made it feel like a true home away from home. Suzie was an amazing host—warm, welcoming, and always quick to respond. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

Best Short-Term Rental We Have Been To
Great property, great location, and amazing hosts. Incredible attention to detail and service. It would take too long to describe everything that impressed us so I'll just say it's all perfect and if this place is available when you're visiting Madison, stop searching and just book it.

Don’t pass this place up!
We had the best stay here for our annual mom/daughter/grandson trip. Everything about the place was perfect and there were so many “extras” that made you feel so special! Our host reached out before we ever came to provide suggestions on places to eat and places to visit in Madison. She left cookies and sweet tea out upon our arrival when she found out my 11 year old was also coming. He walked around the place and had to facetime everyone at home to tell them what they were missing by not being with us. The location is great for walking to the river or to many different shops and small restaurants and coffee shops in the area. The place is amazing and we will for sure be back!

Came for graduation from Hanover College. Instead of normal hotel, decided we needed more space for the weekend. Suzie had the rental in great shape with lots of conveniences of home (and more) there and ready for us. Location was great to walk around Madison and the riverfront. Great time and place.

Extreme Hospitality
I can't say enough good things about this property and Ron & Suzie. Suzie is very communicative with guests, but not overly so. She and Ron are very friendly and are extremely hospitable. We arrived to warm cookies and a small gift. On our check-out day Suzie brought us warm muffins. The property smelled amazing, it was very clean and stocked with all the comforts of home. It's within walking distance of everything. I will definitely be staying here any time I'm in Madison.

VIP Treatment at Its Finest!
For Spring Break, I took my three hormonal and grumpy teenagers to stay at the Stablemaster's Quarters in Madison. All of their angst melted away upon entering our moody yet welcoming abode. They were delighted to find their favorite music playing and fresh cookies waiting for them! The care and attention to guests' experience was evident- from the meticulous and thoughtful renovations to the muffins delivered to us the morning that we checked out!Suzie could not have been a better hostess! She truly has a passion for making her guests feel like beloved family. My kids want her to adopt them!Communication was on point from the moment we booked to check-out. Parking was easy and convenient. Location is centered in a bustling, quaint downtown with tons of shops and restaurants! Clifty Falls was just a few minutes of driving away (and SO worth visiting!).Suzie- You have spoiled my kids! How am I ever going to top this?! We will absolutely be back!

Amazing hosts! Rustic decor with interesting history. Very cozy. Hosts made us homemade cookies when we arrived and fixed us muffins the morning we left. I don’t think there’s anything they haven’t thought of that you might need. Definitely one of the nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed at and we will definitely return. I cannot say enough great things about this weekend.

Best birthday trip ever!
3 elder relatives celebrating 2 birthdays selected the stablemasters quarters in Madison because we like historic structures. The location is ideal because we could walk to almost everything. The former stables are decorated to reflect the building’s first use as a stables in the 1860s. Our host stocked the frig with birthday cake and added happy birthday touches. throughout. A lovely and convenient and very special place to stay!
