Shirley’s place was lovely and well-equipped and a perfect place for my dear firiend and I to spend our 60th HS reunion and host a small gathering on one of our evenings. We each had our own nice bedrooms, although in the Master bedroom there was no hanging closet, so I hung my clothes in the adjoining small bedroom. And there was no bathtub in the master,so fortunately my friend and I. switched for bathrooms. Also, there are stairs and winding but nicely carpeted. Just be cognizant if you have too large suitcases and are not as young as you used to be!The check in numbers are tricky, so pay attention. But overall, Shirley’s place was a lovely, well-equipped and great place for our trip.

On the water

Lovely property. Well maintained. Plenty of privacy on the deck overlooking the water. Neighbors were friendly. Access by boat to the entire Madison chain of lakes. Short walking distance to excellent boat launch was much appreciated. Some nice dining and entertainment opportunities along the waterfront nearby. A great experience all around.

Beautiful Home With Amazing Amenities

We loved this VRBO. The house was beautiful and had every single amenity you could imagine. It was exceptionally clean and well kept. The fridge was stocked with sauces and condiments and the kitchen had every pot/pan/utensil anyone could need. The patio overlooking the river was a wonderful spot to hang out. I would highly recommend this property.
