The village of McFarland is conveniently located just southeast of Madison. It’s recognized for its small-town charm and family friendly atmosphere. There’s a wide array of housing options in this quickly growing suburb, from single-family homes to condos and townhomes to new developments.
There’s plenty to do in McFarland itself, but you’re still just a short drive, bike ride, or even boat ride, from Madison. McFarland sits on Lake Waubesa, which connects to Lake Monona and beyond. Spend all day boating on Lake Waubesa, or explore all of the Madison area lakes! The beautiful Lower Yahara River Trail takes you along the shore of the lake, and right into Madison. McFarland is just a short drive from Lake Kegonsa, Lake Monona, the cities of Fitchburg and Monona, and downtown Madison.
