About this property

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!

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!

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.

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!

AMAZING!

This was by far one of the best places we have ever stayed. The host was amazing, perfect location and all extra little details made this stay so memorable. We were able to walk to everything downtown Madison had to offer. The host was SO very helpful with recommendations on where to eat and visit. She went above and beyond to make our stay so relaxing. And relax we did in the beautifully decorated apartment that was beyond clean and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone and look forward to staying there again!!

Stable Master Week

The Stable Master apartment was one of the nicest places we have stayed in. Very comfortable. Completely stocked with everything you need for your stay. We celebrated our 58th wedding anniversary there and Susie made it really special. Happy anniversary reminders inside and out. Cookies when we got there and muffins in the morning with juice. She is a very gracious host. The town of Madison is beautiful and authentic. We will be going back.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

This property has everything we wanted and more! 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!

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!

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.

Simply the best

We just had a very enjoyable stay in Madison this past week mostly due to the incredible hospitality shown to us by our host, Suzie. First, it’s hard to imagine a prettier, more comfortable apartment on VRBO than Susie’s. Just about everything you need to have a relaxing stay was provided from hot cookies on arrival to warm muffins in the morning. The frig and pantry were filled with goodies and eliminated the need to make any trips to the food market. The location was perfect, near shops and restaurants. If you are a couple or a group of four, the unit is amazing. If you have a larger party Suzie can accommodate you in a fantastic loft apartment which she let us tour one afternoon. Ask her to show you the garage! We never experienced a host as caring as Suzie. She was ready to assist us with any question or need. When she learned we were there to visit a dear friend, she made it a point to be sure we had what we needed to make our visit a special one. Without question this is the best VRBO experience we have ever had.

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!

One of the BEST

This is easily one of the best places we have stayed on vacation. Suzanne WAS the best host we have ever had. Extremely fast to respond to any questions and kept us informed of any maintenance visits that needed to be done. There was some warm cookies waiting for us when we arrived and she delivered fresh muffins to our doorstep a few days later. The stablemasters quarters where we stayed was amazing. Very clean, well stocked and comfortable. We were celebrating our anniversary and a nice touch that was very appreciated was a slice of cake with a Happy Anniversary sign on it. There was also a small Happy Anniversary banner in the living room. A very thoughtful touch. The one caveat would be the TV is too small to be comfortably viewed from the couch. For us, the location was perfect. Easily within walking distance to all the unique shops and restaurants in downtown Madison and the river is only a few blocks away too! Overall, we are extremely happy and satisfied and will definitely be visiting again.

5 Star Stay in Madison

We spent 6 lovely nights at the Stablemaster's Quarters. Suzie has meticulously arranged a haven of rest in an old livery stable. Her design and decoration of the space shows a well thought out plan for her guest relaxation and rest. Little details like fresh baked cookies and muffins, fresh milk or creamer for coffee, umbrellas (which we needed) cozy throws for the couch and fresh flowers enhanced our stay. Communication is excellent and informative. We hope to return soon!
