Speckled Hen Inn Bed & Breakfast

This was our first bed and breakfast stay. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but upon entering the grounds, it immediately felt like home. Pat and Bob we’re welcoming and very personable. The food was amazing and so fresh.
We came to Wisconsin for work and then to get away for a couple days. We didn’t walk the grounds much but did visit the llamas on property. The view out of our room was breathtaking.
I can’t say enough about this place and I look forward to coming back again.

Incredibly cozy property tucked away from the city, but well-​within striking distance of downtown. Owned an operated by a friendly couple who take great care and pride in their hospitality. In the common area, they keep some homemade snacks and beverages available, as well as a selection of nice wines. There are also plenty of interesting books available to familiarize yourself with the local heritage and attractions. The rooms are well-​furnished and clean, with warmth and character in the décor. The landscape itself is gorgeous and worth the time to enjoy some of the sitting areas to soak in the view. Although our expectations for breakfast were high, it still definitely took us by surprise; as inventive as it was tasty, with many of the ingredients being homegrown. We will definitely stay here again!

Absolutely fantastic. We were immediately and warmly greeted by Pat, the Inn Keeper, who gave us a thorough rundown of all the amenities Speckled Hen had to offer. She showed us to the Madison Lakes Room and it was everything we were expecting and more! Very clean and modern and set against the backdrop of a gorgeous and quiet property. Breakfast was delicious and again blew away expectations.
This was my first bed and breakfast experience and could not have been happier. Might have ruined all future B&B experiences as I fear nothing else might measure up!
If you’re looking for a place to stay in Madison, you’ve found it.

My wife and I decided to get away for the weekend and found this B&B. What a find it was! Sitting in 50 acres of land with a creek running in one of the boarders. There is of course a hen house and lamb and sheeps. The house is beautiful. A touch of Victorian but updated. Our room was the Cedar Creek room with a bathroom and whirlpool and double shower and gas fireplace. Extremely clean throughout. Very quite. The place has 5 rooms, 2 down and 2 up and a fifth outside entrance. A gathering room that is very large with every amenities I could think of including a very good variety of winds that is priced very nicely. Homemade cookies and other snacks. The sheets was Egyptian and I can’t even imagine what the thread count is because we don’t even have this type at home but is amazingly soft. We are looking forward to Pat’s breakfast soon. More to come!
We got to meet Bob at breakfast and really enjoyed talking with him and Pat. All their food is grown here. Fresh squeezed orange juice, eggs, Bober bread, bacon with maple syrup, baked tomato with pesto. Absolutely fabulous! Bob and Pat are two of the greatest people I have met and we highly recommend this B&B to anyone. Wonderful setting, great food and the accommodations is well above expectations. We will be back and plan to be back alto see all the seasons here.

We loved our stay here last week! The Starkweather Creek room is beautiful, I loved the bathroom. The two person jacuzzi was very nice. The views out of the room are great, overlooking the pasture. The location to Madison is awesome– 20 minutes to downtown, but only about 10 to a nearby mall. The breakfast were delicious too, and I’m a very picky eater. For example, the first morning we had fruit and yogurt, apple caramel scones, thenbacon with a maple syrup glaze, scrambled eggs, and seasoned potato squares; finishing up with a grape/​cranberry gelato/​ice. The presentation of the meal is very beautiful and luxurious feeling. I would certainly recommend this B&B, and hope to return one day.
