ONE OF A KIND vacation rental with a view
Arbor Hill House - Unique A-frame vacation rental perched atop a hill with great views overlooking the Beltline, UW Arboretum and the city of Madison. Excellent central location with easy access to all parts of Madison and surrounding areas. I'll be happy to do whatever I can to make your stay a pleasant one. This is my personal home so please keep things clean and be respectful. This home should not be used for parties or events. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I look forward to sharing my home with you.
(Corona virus concerns? -- I do all the cleaning myself, so I know the place is kept very clean. For example, I use sanitizing wipes on all of the door knobs, light switches and TV remotes throughout the house. I use a fabric disinfectant spay on all the furniture and throw pillows. The towels, sheets and blankets are washed with a sanitizing soap and dried extra long at high heat in the dryer. I have hand sanitizing soap and wipes available for the guests to use. I would argue that my place is one of the best germ-free places you could be). ______________________________________________________________ Features: Two car garage, one off street parking spot and additional street parking - Screened in porch with a great view overlooking Madison - Patio with a gas grill - Two fire places. - Sauna - Four large smart TV's with Amazon Prime, Netflix And Hulu - High speed wireless internet - Central air conditioning - Washer and dryer - Fully stocked kitchen - Dishwasher - Clean comfortable furniture. ______________________________________________________________ Master Bedroom Loft - King size bed - 50" smart TV with amazon prime - Fireplace - Bathroom with unique walk in shower and Sauna.

This cozy home was a great find! It’s both close to downtown restaurants and shopping and has everything you need to stay in and enjoy a relaxing getaway! The decor is like no other place out there!
Absolutely fantastic. The location, cleanliness, and communication with host was outstanding. The kitchen is well equipped for all meals. The beds are comfortable. I would definitely recommend. If ever in the area, I will stay again. Thank you
This is a unique home that is super clean and had everything needed to cook, entertain (we played games & watched football) and accommodate any family. The location was close to downtown, the interstate, and airport. Plenty of restaurants were nearby as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay again.

It was a very nice place. Clean, spacious, unique and quiet.
Very good communication, quick response from host whenever I had questions.
We definitely recommend this place and love to stay again if we have a chance.
This house is so fun! Could be considered my dream home. Vaulted ceilings, beautiful windows and a cozy retro feel. It had everything we needed and is located in a great neighborhood!
The cabin was absolutely spotless and well equipped. The owner was an excellent communicator - we did it all by email. The expectations for maintaining and checking out were very reasonable. I recommend this stay to anyone!
We really enjoyed staying in this unique and comfortable house. It's a great base for exploring Madison, and Josh has given the house itself a very imaginative and artistic charm that enhanced our trip.
House was as described. Close to everything in Madison . Big kitchen, bedrooms were comfortable. Living area and porch were nice. Josh was a great host, and would definitely stay there again
Excellent housing and service from the property manager! The great room in this A-frame reminds me of my old ski days and the suburban location brings you closer to local entertainment, interesting venues and shops.
The house was beautiful and incredibly clean. My family and I loved it and would absolutely rent it again. Josh was a tremendous host. He was responsive and an absolute pleasure to deal with.
This property was perfect. It was full of character and even had well cared for house plants. Loved that the patio had a ceiling so we could sit there during the rain. All beds were super comfortable. I just can’t think of anything negative!
A very cool 70’s vibe that we just loved! Josh was great at communicating. Very clean and just what we needed for a weekend away celebrating UW Homecoming!
I'll definitely be coming back to this place! It was a good time with family and friends, and Josh made everything easy for us! Much appreciation towards the man!
House is like a step back in time. 70s A frame with a cool loft. We enjoyed it except for the extremely loud road noise from the deck. We also weren’t aware from the listing that the house is connected to another house, but that never interfered with our stay. Still would be good to have that in the listing. Clean, comfortable home. Host was very responsive.
This home is such a unique rental. Very cozy, clean and the location is very central in Madison. It was great having a sauna since it was the first really cold/snowy weekend. If you are a looking for a great place to stay for a couple days....this is definitely a must.
