Perfect grandparenting home away from home
Barb and Butch have provided every amenity one could ask for, from an initial packet of coffee for morning #1 to just about every kitchen tool imaginable. And the location was delightful... close enough (and far enough) from Madison to make getting in and out of the city easy - and deliciously quiet at night. For us, this wonderful home-away-from-home was just the right choice, giving us plenty of time to be with our newest grandchild - as well as a little quiet time to recuperate from hanging out with a 2-year-old! Already looking forward to another visit!

Penn State Football Roadtrip
Traveling with friends to Madison to attend a Penn State vs Wisconsin football game we found "A touch of country country living" the perfect VRBO for our visit. Well equipped with all the essentials that made our stay comfortable. Communication with the owners was quick and they were responsive to our requests. If traveling to Madison in the future we would definitely stay here again. Thank you Barb and Butch!

Better Than Advertised
We had a business trip to the area and decided to stay at Barbara's place in the country rather than a hotel. That was a great decision. Barbara's place was better than described. We have stayed in many VRBOs over the years, but this was one of the best. Everything was extremely clean. The layout was very well planned and the construction was good. Lighting was wonderful. We would definitely stay again.

Friends and Family Weekend
We loved the beautiful country guest home which was very warm and inviting. Our group had plenty of space to gather, eat, and talk. We drove the short distance to UW-Madison campus to watch football and visit. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality. We had a fantastic weekend.

Cozy Comforts of Home
This sweet little home was just as described. The owners were very accommodating and came to meet us as soon as we arrived. The supplies were very well stocked and we wanted for nothing. Barb & Butch had a notebook full of menus, attractions as well as games and puzzles to occupy our stay. We would recommend this place if you are in the Madison area. I think we were only about 12-15 mins from downtown. We visited the Farmer's Market. A must see if in the area.

A Perfect Touch of Country
Beautiful home with plenty of sitting areas, beautiful patio for morning coffee/evening visiting and drinks. As clean as any place can possibly be! Had trouble with the coffeemaker and let the host know. We had a new one within ten minutes! Awesome response! Home is near most everything on the northeast side of Madison.

Wonderful accommodations and nice people
The owners were very friendly and easy to work with. They put a great deal of effort into making clear instructions, including labeling wall switches for ease of use. Kitchen was well appointed and loads of room. Washer and dryer were bonuses for us as this was the last stop in our tour of WI. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent accommodations. Hosts do an excellent job ensuring the property is set up for their guests. We were in town for a family wedding and enjoyed the location as it was close to all the events. Stayed there last year as well for another family event. If you are looking for a location with smaller group, this would certainly fit the bill. Would definitely book again in the future when in the area.

Our favorite place to stay!
This is our second time staying at this property and we are already booked again for next year! The house is so clean, quiet, and cozy! My kids love it and we enjoy going to all of the playgrounds nearby and even made it to the zoo this year. The location is amazing. We cannot say enough great things about this property and the owners. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

Excellent accommodations
We were in Sun Prairie to attend sporting events and this VRBO worked out great. We really appreciated all of the extra things the owners provided such as coffee, dish soap, lots of towels, ice packs in the freezer that we borrowed for our cooler, extra garbage sacks, etc... The kitchen was fabulous and everything was clean and organized. We hope to stay there again in the future!
