Best downtown location! Stablemaster’s Quarters. Awarded winning! Come see why…

This historic building was originally one of the city’s horse stables and has recently been converted into apartments. The new furnishings, bathrooms and kitchen will be appreciated yet the historic charm is blended within.

This fun river town will remind you of years gone by. Come see why Ladie’s Home Journal awarded Madison “ prettiest small town in the midwest”. Chicago Tribune says it’s “the best preserved midwest town”.

This historic building originally was one of the city’s stables in circa 1886. It’s now a blend of barnwood contemporary and vintage charm with so many amenities!
New renovations, large gathering area and luxury furnishings will leave you wanting to stay longer. Come see why guests say they don’t want to leave!! There’s 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a fully furnished kitchen, laundry area and the BEST location that you will love!

Wonderful weekend getaway

Amazing hosts! Rustic decor with interesting history. Very cozy. Hosts made us homemade cookies when we arrived and fixed us muffins the morning we left. I don’t think there’s anything they haven’t thought of that you might need. Definitely one of the nicest VRBO we’ve ever stayed at and we will definitely return. I cannot say enough great things about this weekend.

On top of the cleanliness, central location, ease of checkout, fair price, and beautiful details, the stable house was so incredibly inviting and cozy! On top of that, the hosts provided the utmost hospitality including fresh baked goods and some pantry and toiletry items available for use. Come for a great weekend away! You won’t be disappointed!

Best birthday trip ever!

3 elder relatives celebrating 2 birthdays selected the stablemasters quarters in Madison because we like historic structures. The location is ideal because we could walk to almost everything. The former stables are decorated to reflect the building’s first use as a stables in the 1860s. Our host stocked the frig with birthday cake and added happy birthday touches. throughout. A lovely and convenient and very special place to stay!

Sisters Trip

My twin sister and I visited for a birthday trip. Looked just like in the pictures and beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was fully stocked with cooking utensils, pans, salt and pepper, etc. Suzie thought of everything I didn't know we needed or wanted...from a cute birthday banner and piece of cake to milk or cream in the fridge for coffee. Will definitely stay again! Thanks for the hospitality.

Charming Getaway at Stable Masters Quarters

Our stay at Stable Masters Quarters was truly delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with fresh baked cookies and our favorite genre of music playing, thanks to Alexa. Ron’s homemade salsa and the bag of chips were a wonderful touch. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the Christmas decor added a beautiful festive charm to the place. Meeting Suzie and Ron was a pleasure—they are such kind souls. Suzie’s fresh muffins on our departure date were the perfect send-off. We highly recommend Stable Masters Quarters for a cozy and welcoming stay!

VIP Treatment at Its Finest!

For Spring Break, I took my three hormonal and grumpy teenagers to stay at the Stablemaster's Quarters in Madison. All of their angst melted away upon entering our moody yet welcoming abode. They were delighted to find their favorite music playing and fresh cookies waiting for them! The care and attention to guests' experience was evident- from the meticulous and thoughtful renovations to the muffins delivered to us the morning that we checked out!Suzie could not have been a better hostess! She truly has a passion for making her guests feel like beloved family. My kids want her to adopt them!Communication was on point from the moment we booked to check-out. Parking was easy and convenient. Location is centered in a bustling, quaint downtown with tons of shops and restaurants! Clifty Falls was just a few minutes of driving away (and SO worth visiting!).Suzie- You have spoiled my kids! How am I ever going to top this?! We will absolutely be back!

I’ve been to various vrbo’s, and this was by far the best one I’ve ever seen. Pictures don’t do this property justice. Suzie was the most incredible host! Everything was immaculate and very convenient. We were greeted with fresh cookies, bagels, and upon departure she had delicious muffins waiting for us. The location is absolutely perfect for shopping, dining, and exploring the river. I can’t stress how perfect this property was. Susie’s personality matches the welcoming town of Madison to a tee. I will definitely be back again asap. Thank you Suzie for making this getaway absolutely perfect! You were the perfect host.

Perfection from start to finish

Susie is one of the nicest, most accommodating hosts you could ever find. She answered questions in minutes instead of hours, wanted to know our favorite music so that it would be playing as we walked in and then she had hot cookies waiting on the counter for us when we arrived. We were coming into town early so that we could watch a football game at one of the local establishments and then check in. She was so accommodating that we were able to check in early and watch most of the game in her beautiful apartment. Every amenity that you could possibly want she has provided along with many that you wouldn’t even think of. The refrigerator was stocked with flavored creamers, many kinds of coffee, bagels and cream cheese, condiments, spices and water. The beds and the linens are top-notch and we slept like babies. Our 2 1/2 day retreat felt like a week’s vacation. I can’t wait to return!
