Photos and Description of the Madison vacation chateau / country house rental
Secluded Chateau 5 Bedrooms 6 Baths(Slps 10-11)Near Cincy & Perfect North Slopes

Come out to our place and forget about life's worries! In the winter months we have skiing, snowboarding and tubing just 9 short miles away at Perfect North Slopes in Lawrenceburg. This home away from home is our 'Dream Aurora' home, secluded on 5 acres in a park like setting overlooking a picturesque pond. In the summer the pond is full of thriving catfish, bass and bluegill, so bring your pole or use one of ours to catch your next meal. Or chose to unwind with a book in one of our 2 cheerful sunrooms overlooking the pond while watching the kids' paddleboat around enjoying the ducks and viewing nature. Later in the evening enjoy a cookout on the front deck overlooking another pond and a setting of beautiful trees and a place for the kids to exert their energy on the trampoline with safety net. Close the night by sitting around an open firepit roasting marshmallows and enjoying the night air.

The chateau has two-levels: The Main Level includes a fully furnished kitchen, dining room, eating bar, tv room, living room with a gas fireplace and an attached sunroom overlooking the pond. The bedrooms on the main level consist of 1 Master Suite and 1 bedroom with 1.5 baths. The Master Suite called the 'Tuscan Suite' has a king bed with doors leading outside to a balcony with table and chairs to enjoy your morning coffee. The Master Bath has a large walk-in shower and a whirlpool tub. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed and a bath adjacent to the bedroom.

The Lower Level has a media room, sports bar area with sink, and a sunroom overlooking the picturesque pond. There are 2 Master Suites, and half bath. The largest of the two Master Suites we call the 'Family Suite' has a king bed and a seperate children's room named the 'Kids and Toys' room within the suite for those families with little ones or big ones. The 'Kids and Toys' room, done in pastels, has a single bunk bed over a full size bed with toys to play with and a large chalkboard to entertain. This Family Suite also comes with an oversized jetted garden tub, seperate shower, two seperate vanity areas and a window overlooking the pond. The other Master Suite we call the 'Safari Suite' has a queen bed in a large bedroom with a unique bathroom that continues the safari theme. So when you awake in the morning grab a cup of coffee and make yourself comfortable in the sunroom just around the corner and watch nature come to life. Or step out onto the patio and breathe in the morning air while watching the fog lift off the pond. The Media Room has theater seats, a 55 inch flat screen tv, fireplace and a half bath off the side. The Retro Bar is ecclectic and unique in design. Not your typical sports bar to say the least!

Outside we have a place to have a large bonfire in the backyard overlooking the pond. If you would like to have a bonfire on one of the nights you stay there is an additional $50 charge and we will have the cottage caretaker present to get the fire started and make sure it is safe and poses no risk to the neighboring woods, trees or houses.

We have a small paddleboat that may be used by renters on the pond. Any individual using the paddleboat is required to wear a safety flotation vest (provided) at all times. We DO NOT ALLOW SWIMMING in the pond. Use of the pond is strictly at your own risk. We cannot be held liable for any accident causing injury or death due to use or misuse of this property. By renting from us you agree that you are in charge of your own safety and the safety of those in your party.

THE BIG RULES:

The pond is ideal for fishing and small boating. Please be well aware that WE DO NOT ALLOW SWIMMING as it is very deep in some parts, with a treacherous mud and rock bottom that poses risk of injury. A special eye should be kept on children at all times near the water to ensure their safety.

About Tom & Anita Wedding

Hi, my name is Tom! I am married to a lovely lady named Anita. We recently retired, so we decided to relocate closer to family which brought us here to Hoosier Country. When we aren't spending time with family we are gardening, canning or working with our local church being Christ's hands and feet.

And oh yes! We do have a special dog named Sasha! Outside dog of course, but we take her with us when we go anywhere. So if you are cruising around town, be on the lookout for a blonde shephard smiling ear to ear riding in the back of a pickup truck......know that she's in her glory! So give a honk and a wave if you see her!

So come on in and make our home your home while your away on vacation or whatever brings you to our corner of the world, kick back, relax and share in the peacefulness that surrounds our home. See you soon! Tom and Anita

This was an absolutely wonderful place to stay! We stayed for three nights and enjoyed every single minute. Anita and Tom were very gracious and pleasant hosts. Upon arrival we found that they had even made us a Welcome cake. We stayed there because of a home school convention that was in Cincinnati and we didn't want to cram five adults and four children in a tiny, boring hotel room. It didn't take us long to get to the convention center each day, and it was a relief to come back to a quiet and relaxing home. This will definitely be our first choice each year we attend the convention. We also visited the Creation Museum on our way home and it was a great end to a wonderful weekend. I highly suggest this vacation home, you won't be disappointed! Make sure you swing by the Creation museum while you're in the area also, you might be surprised with what you discover.

Thank You Tom and Anita
And God Bless

We just returned from a fabulous weekend at this property! My 16-year old son and his friends wanted to go skiing and we looked for a place near Perfect North. This could not have been a better place for all of our needs, especially given the warm hospitality of the owners, Tom and Anita, who are my new best friends! They were so gracious and kind to us and pampered us with a pancake breakfast! Since we didn't need the entire house, it felt like we were at an amazing B&B overlooking a duck pond and a beautiful country setting! The house is so spacious and well decorated; the media room was the only place the boys needed, and the quiet and relaxing surroundings made it a perfect weekend! Will definitely come back!

Home Away from Home

Our second stay at this home in Aurora was priceless, just like our first! Our first visit was a 10-person college staff retreat; our second was a 14-person family gathering. This is now home away from home. Modern kitchen, perfect hangout areas, pond and paddleboat, fire pit, huge gas grill, spacious bedrooms, three flatscreens, big fireplace, and most of all, the always gracious owners (who've become our friends) to welcome you and meet every need! The personal notes in the signed guestbook testify to every visitors' satisfaction. You won't be disappointed.

Myself and several friends rented this property for a weekend getaway. We had a fabulous weekend enjoying the home and the property. The house is more beautiful and comfortable than the pictures can show. Tom and Anita were friendly and welcoming. They even baked cookies for our arrival! I would highly recommend this property!

The Perfect Vacation Home

5 of 5
Submitted: July 31, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We brought 10 people (6 adults, 4 kids) for our college staff retreat and had an amazing time. The home is beautiful, fresh, and spacious with numerous bedrooms and hangout areas that are situated naturally. We spent time on the paddleboat each day, and the owners responded to at least three specific requests by personally coming immediately to take care of what we needed. We watched the Opening Ceremonies on the bigscreen downstairs sitting in massive leather recliners and everyone kept using the word "perfect" to describe the home, location, and setting. You won't be disappointed!
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Thank you David for those kind words! We are pleased to hear that our home provided a place for your group to escape and relax from the busy world. We hope to see good people like you return again soon! Tom and I are grateful that you were able to enjoy our God given home. God Bless!
