Great Stay!!

The Johnson house was perfect for our family of 5 and our golden doodle to stay for the Christmas holiday. We were in town visiting family and needed a place for all of us to stay. Stacy had even gone above and beyond and had a Christmas tree and decorations to truly make it feel like home. The house is in a great location to be able to visit our family members spread all around Dane County.
Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024
