Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lake Mendota

Great location, quiet and private. We really appreciated how dog friendly the house was! Would recommend.

We stayed in John's place while in town for the Madtown Half Marathon and 10K. It was a great stay! Walkable to the start/finish line (about 1.5ish miles), and the place was as described. Parking was easy and John left clear instructions. He also left a bit of fruit and some eggs, which were a nice welcome. We'd stay here again!

Very clean and well-appointed; particularly appreciated the older-growth trees in the neighborhood, and relative quiet being near the highway and flight patterns which were well-described in the listing. The steps to upstairs bedrooms were more manageable than anticipated, perhaps not suited for toddlers, tho not an issue for adults/older youngsters. Space is comfortable and a great place to feel at home; walking and biking options very convenient and nicely offered.

We’ve been here before and will be back! We ate in the area, had s’mores by the fire pit, good bars nearby, walking areas and shopping! The neighbors are friendly and the view speaks for itself. Lots of wildlife in the area as well!

Arbor Hill House is one of the best Airbnb’s I’ve ever stayed in! It was cozy, spacious, and felt so homey. We had a group of 5—two couples and a single person—and there was plenty of room for all of us to have our own space. The living room is very accommodating for big groups, with a large sectional couch, recliner, and dining table with comfy rolling chairs. And the screened in porch was the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful weather! The loft is awesome. The bed is very comfortable and the attached bath is spacious. The sauna worked wonderfully and was a favorite accommodation amongst our group! It can fit two people at a time. And the overall vibe was perfect. Very 70’s, lots of thriving plants, and warm lighting. Last but not least — Josh was the best host! Josh left thorough instructions so we would be comfortable during our stay and was very easy to get in touch with. And the home was SPOTLESS! So clean the couch had vacuum lines on the couch. Literally 10/10!

Nice spot, amazing location. We slept 6 for a conference and it worked out. Recommended.

We stayed at Fred’s place for our daughter’s graduation from UW-Madison. It was wonderful and a home away from home. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The mall is not that far away with plenty of places to eat. Highly recommended!

Our family stayed at Carolina’s fabulous house for our daughter’s wedding weekend. It is very spacious and so comfortable. Many homey touches with great decor and a signs of a green thumb! The house is set up with nice linens, high end kitchenware, and stocked with everything you will need for your stay. We also loved the back patio! Carolina was very responsive and welcoming. Thank you - we will stay again!

Absolutely spotless and lovely! Loved the small touches and couldn’t as for a better location. Never even had to move our car! Even though it was rainy and pre-busy season, we had a great time and are looking forward to our visit later this summer!

A perfectly located, immaculately kept loft. The view over looks the family park with great restraunts and shops within walking distance. Cold glasses, New Glarus beer and bottles of ice water are stocked in the refigerator. There is also a Keurig coffee maker with coffee! This is our 3rd stay at one of Diane and Brents AirBNBs and as always the communication is great and the stay has been relaxing, fun and wonderful!

Debbie was amazing!! She was so responsive and so so sweet. She was flexible when our trip changed and my employees just raved about how nice the place was. If we are back in Madison we will definitely be back at Debbie's place!

Barbe's place has beautiful gardens and landscaping with a private patio where you can watch the birds fly in and out. The interior is comfortable and homey, yet very stylish. The place is spotless and well stocked with all the necessities. We slept well and would stay here again. Thanks Barbe!

This place was wonderful!!!! Alexander is a wonderful host. He had so many amenities- kitchen spices, dish detergent, shampoo, towels, extra blankets- anything you could think of! Place was so fun- fabulously decorated! Kitchen had everything for us to cook a large family meal! Porch has spectacular views. Very walkable to everywhere. Host responded to everything we asked so kindly and quickly!!!! Wonderful experience! Celebrated our son’s graduation and would recommend to any other family to stay here- it was perfect!!! Thanks.

Nicely furnished apartment with lots of thoughtful touches like soft bed linens and wide selection of toiletries. Delight ful gardens and pond busy with wildlife. Hosts very helpful. Wonderful stay.

Bente is a wonderful and kind host, always responsive and great with children! The family has loved staying here, and we will definitely come back again!

Such a wonderful cozy place to stay in downtown Stoughton. Close to a lot of great local shops and great people.

getaway weekend at Jody and Jana's was just what we needed. a cozy couch and comfy bed, ample space for the two of us and that view of the lake was unbeatable! loved the little snacks they left us and the home was perfectly clean and comfortable.

Randy was a super host. Very proactive and communicative. The condo allowed for total privacy from one floor to the next. Wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend a stay.

Wonderful stay, beautiful location, conveniently located near shopping, amenities were up to date and accurate. Left saying “we can only stay here anytime we go to the dells!” Must book location!

Walkable from the main street in downtown Dells (Broadway). Felt right at home, comfy furniture, clean, thoughtful amenities, clear instructions. On the water, immediately next to a public launch. Giant jacuzzi bathtub in bedroom. Wish we'd stayed longer, would rebook.

Really nice apartment in a beautiful location right on the river. So peaceful in the morning. Very easy to find and get into. Exactly as described. Coffee pot with coffee bags, sugar and creamer including microwave popcorn and chocolate biscuits. Nice welcome pack. Lots of cutlery crockery and pans but didn’t see any oil or condiments. If you are going to cook you’d need to bring some. Had problems with the tv instructions but after contacting Ashley somebody came to the condo within 15 mins and sorted out for us. May need to update instructions or check settings haven’t been touched to save inconvenience. Just to note the smaller bedroom has the boiler in it which is very noisy. We had ear plugs so was ok for us but if you come in the cold weather and need heating you would need to bear in mind. Overall a lovely stay in a quiet area of town within a short walk to all amenities. Would recommend.

Our stay at the Dells was such fun! The host was extremely responsive and helpful providing us with recommendations for sights, restaurants and things to do. The condo was exactly as described with 2 beds and baths and had everything you might need to stay in or not in a breathtaking location on the River. It was peaceful and such a delight. I would stay again!

We had a great experience at our stay in Lake Geneva. Lori was very easy to communicate with and timely in her responses. The villa was INCREDIBLY clean and nicely furnished and decorated. Great view of Lake Como from the balcony. Easy walk up the hill to the patio at Geneva National Lodge where we enjoyed the Deck Bar and fire pit. Also an easy walk to The Getaway and Mars and a quick drive into downtown Lake Geneva. We hope to visit again soon!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful Lake Geneva Airbnb! The home felt so welcoming from the moment we walked in. The location couldn’t have been better. Just minutes from the lake and downtown, we were able to enjoy charming local shops, great restaurants, and stunning lakeside views without needing to drive far. It was the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and convenient access to everything Lake Geneva has to offer. Our host was outstanding—friendly, responsive, and truly committed to making our stay comfortable. They provided excellent local recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed. Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend, a family getaway, or just some time to relax by the water, this place is a gem. Wehighly recommend it to anyone visiting Lake Geneva!
