Terrific stay. Matt and Linda’s Artist A-Frame is better than advertised. Clean and comfortable in a quiet neighborhood short distance from Madison and Clifty Falls. Well stocked. Slept great on the King bed mattress. TV easy to figure out - cast streaming from phone. Loved the shady breezeway for some relaxing reading. Excellent. Highly recommend, especially for a couple getaway.

The Artist's A Frame

Madison is fairly rural with no Interstate highway. You'll be driving on two lane road for a good clip. To avoid tolls near the major cities, use Google maps.The Artist's A Frame is located in a quiet suburban-like area on a cul-de-sac with two golf courses nearby. It has two bedrooms, a nice kitchen, dining area, large living room, and patio with a BBQ and umbrella covered table.Fridge is an adequate side-by-side with an ice maker. It had complimentary waters and sodas. There was also a basket of snacks on the counter.The dish washer is showing its age, but the newer glass top electric oven was good for cooking breakfast.Linens and towels were plentiful as were cleaning solutions -- dish soap, dishwasher and washing machine pods, Bounce sheets, Shout stain remover, etc.Beds are a king size (master bedroom), queen sized in 2nd bedroom, and were comfortable. There's a charging station in each for plugging in four devices at once.The wifi was good with signals both inside and outside the house.There is a Kroger and Aldi nearby, but no Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, or Total Wine. Get things from those stores on the way from the airport.On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd rate the Artist's A Frame an 9. Really enjoyed the place, I'd return, and highly recommend a stay along with your KY/IN/OH adventure.

Just perfect!

We were a group of three longtime friends in town for a holiday weekend together. The Artist’s A-Frame was the perfect place to retire at the end of a great day of shopping and eating. The home was clean, cozy, and well-appointed, and it was located in a lovely neighborhood. The owners were very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend the A-Frane!

Perfect location for a brief overnight.

We were heading to Madison for the evening and I was lucky enough to find this listing open for the night we needed. It was in a great location and quick drive downtown, quiet neighborhood and one of the most well stocked rentals we ever stayed in. Thank you for everything. We would definitely use again.

Incredible Hospitality!!

We were blown away!! This was our first VRBO experience for a girls trip and it exceeded our expectations. They left us fresh flowers, a thank you note, snacks, drinks, and had just thought of EVERYTHING we could need throughout the house. We were especially impressed by the communication- they provided us with suggestions of what to do around Madison as well as just letting us know they were available if we had any questions. Cannot recommend enough!

Quiet Get-Away

This was our second visit to Madison and by far the best. The Artist's A-Frame was perfect, from the beautiful decorations, comfortable bed, and every amenity. We just wanted a quiet little get away from the day to day, and this was the answer. It is definitely on our "do again" list. So grateful for those who share their little paradises with others!
