Homestead is the home away from home

The Homestead was the most welcoming. The property is stunning. The rooms are clean and chic. The sheets are the highest quality the towel warmer was top notch. Breakfast was included from a local spot. We will be back and will absolutely stay again.

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.

Great for family gatherings

My family traveled together to celebrate an engagement. We booked the family suite and loved that we could all be together. The inn was charming and cozy, the staff were warm and welcoming, there is even a sweet little dog in residence! The whole place was extremely clean and well maintained, we couldn’t be happier. Next time we travel to Madison we look forward to staying at the Homestead again.

Our new home away from home!

What a gem! Attentive staff and hands-on ownership. Places like The Homestead attract "like minded" people and this reminded me of why I love to travel and why I choose small boutique inns. Already planning to return with friends and stay for two nights! We loved just hanging out in our room listening to the record player. But it was equally as nice to hang out in all the other common areas; chatting with staff or guests, sitting by the fire, enjoying the various collections everywhere, selecting a book to read, nibbling on snacks (including fresh pop corn!!!), sipping some port..... And the resident doggie Hartman....you captured our hearts. You can nibble on my ear any time! And to think this place is an hour from our house. I see some more frequent quick get-aways in our future.

This is the sweetest little B&B. Clean, beautiful rooms and a lot of attention to detail. The inn keepers and owner are lovely to chat with. The snacks and popcorn are a bonus. If you are in Madison, I highly suggest you stay here. I didn't try the butter olive oil on my popcorn but apparently it's a must!
