A classic old house. Very nice host and good communication. Can’t beat the location as you can walk right to Main Street in Madison.

Prime location
This house is situated in the heart of Madison, a great town to explore - abundant restaurants, many walking trails and green recreational spaces, lots to do! The house is older, as many in the neighborhood are. The beds were comfortable and the amenities there, but spartan. (Only overhead lighting in bedrooms, no bedside tables or any kind of place to put a phone to charge, or be used as an alarm. No seating in the multiple living area except for a single sofa in each. It’s hard to have a conversation with family when you’re only seated in a line. ) Kitchen was adequately stocked. Though my family really enjoyed the location and proximity to everything we needed in town, the general cleanliness of the house was not good. It reminded me of our old college apartments - bathroom kinda clean but corners of the room and windowsills and floors dusty, dead insects, etc. everything you’d expect in spring when you open up a house again. It desperately needs a deep once-over by a real cleaning crew. We actually brought over a borrowed vacuum to use on the main living area floors to pickup the dust and grit that seemed long-standing. If the house were to be updated with some simple furniture additions and a deep cleaning, I would not hesitate to stay again…..based primarily on location. If it remains as is, I would not make another enervation here.

Quaint and perfect for what we needed!
First I want to shout out the amazing host Carmen. The communication I had with him was amazing throughout the whole trip. We had an emergency situation the happened the morning of our check out and he went above and beyond to help us. I am so grateful for that!Pro’s:- Beautiful and large home. There was plenty of space for our party of 5. There are three large bedrooms, two living room spaces, and a big kitchen. - It is within walking distance of downtown Madison and the Madison Train station. We took so many walks downtown during our week trip.- Free water in the fridge was wonderful!- Honestly just such a beautiful historical family home - We were in awe!Negatives:** Prefacing that our group was there for a week - these may not be issues for just a few days. **- There never seemed to be enough bath towels for the 5 of us haha. There weren’t any wash clothes and I could only find one hand towel. We were so thankful for the washer and dryer in the home to do towels. - There is a lack of tables. There’s no side tables in the bedrooms or living rooms. Minor annoying issue. That also means there aren’t any lamps in the bedrooms. - The listing states that there is central air - but it’s actually air conditioning units he installs in May. This was only an issue because we had a really hot day. I was able to talk to Carmen and he helped create a plan to cool down the house and it worked really well! (Thank you so much Carmen!!)8.5/10 would recommend!

Older home but spacious
Lots of room downstairs for gathering, but lighting was barely adequate. Owner was very accommodating and communicative. Needs good cleaning around window sills and under beds.

Perfect location, super cute!
We loved our stay at Carmen's place in Madison! The house itself was exactly what we needed and captured the charm of traditional Northeastern homes. The home was very central to everything the town of Madison has to offer (restaurants, bars, BAGELS!) and is within walking distance to the train station. Carmen was more than accommodating, making sure we were well taken care of and even gifted us with a bottle of wine from his vineyard! 10/10 would definitely stay here again.

Very pleasant. Short stay with basic amenities
This was a very pleasant, short stay with basic amenities. Everything works well and the only issue was that there was not enough kitchen appliances. The property manager is very quick to respond and said that he will get more appliances next time. Price was excellent too
