Step into Shady Grove Cottage, a charming retro-inspired retreat where vintage character meets modern comfort in the heart of Madison. This thoughtfully renovated 5-bedroom, 2-bath split-level home comfortably sleeps up to 12 guests, making it the perfect gathering space for families, groups, or weekend getaways.

Inside, you’ll find a welcoming main level designed for connection and ease. The cozy living room offers plenty of seating for relaxing conversations, movie nights, or catching the big game, while a dedicated workspace provides a quiet spot to check in on emails if needed. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at home, featuring a full-size fridge, stove, coffee maker, and all the essentials. Enjoy meals together at the sleek dining table or keep things casual with additional seating nearby.

The home’s split-level layout offers both privacy and personality. Downstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom with a walk-in shower and marble finishes. One bedroom features two full beds and fun extras like chess and darts for a little friendly competition, while the second offers a cozy queen bed retreat.

Upstairs on the third level are three additional bedrooms—two with queen beds and one with a king—along with a shared full bath that showcases charming powder blue retro tile and a tub/shower combo, adding to the home’s nostalgic appeal.

Step outside to enjoy the spacious yard, shaded by mature trees, or unwind on the patio with comfortable seating and a charcoal grill—perfect for laid-back evenings. During warmer months, guests can take advantage of the seasonal above-ground pool (open through October 1st, weather permitting), offering a refreshing way to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

Additional amenities include a washer and dryer, driveway parking for up to four vehicles, and convenient self check-in with a digital keypad. Please note that due to the split-level design, stairs are required to access both sleeping areas, as there are no bedrooms or bathrooms on the main floor.

Located in a quiet residential neighborhood just over a mile from grocery stores, dining, and everyday essentials, Shady Grove Cottage offers both comfort and convenience—making it an ideal home base for your stay in Madison.

Cancellation Policy: One hundred percent (100.00%) of the total booking charges will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 14 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 14 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.

Hi there! I’m the owner and operator of a short-term rental business built around one simple goal: making guests feel right at home. I absolutely love what I do — especially designing spaces that are clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked for a five-star stay. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me spending time with my family, hanging out with my dogs, experimenting in the kitchen, or unwinding with a good video game. I’m all about the little details and genuinely enjoy helping people have the best stay possible. Travel plays a big part in my life, too — from honeymooning in Iceland, to exploring Mexico, to visiting family in Orlando and Gulf Shores. I know what it feels like to have an amazing stay, and that’s exactly the experience I aim to deliver to every guest. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m happy to help and excited to host you!
