About the Inn

Whether looking for a romantic getaway, a relaxing weekend, a respite from travels, or the perfect setting for family and friends to gather, the Brady Inn Bed and Breakfast has it all. Our two lovely Victorian era private homes have been restored with attention to detail. Located a block and a half from the downtown square in the heart of historic Madison, Georgia, the Brady Inn Bed & Breakfast retains the charm of the Victorian era with lovely antiques, beautiful heart pine floors, fireplace mantels, and period appointments.

From the moment you enter, you know that you can make yourself at home. Rooms are welcoming, comfortable and equipped with full private baths. The Brady Inn Bed and Breakfast's sprawling bungalow design maximizes the privacy of each individually decorated room. Custom-made mattresses and box springs by the Georgia Sleep Shop, high thread count cotton sheets and a choice of pillows insures a comfortable night's sleep. Wake to the aroma of freshly brewed specialty coffee from St. Ives or a selection of gourmet teas from Harney & Sons. Enjoy our award winning local paper along with Peter's hearty breakfast which changes daily but always has a fruit starter and a hot entree. Stroll through the historic district, visit museums, shop for antiques, dine in a variety of restaurants -- all within walking distance of the Inn. Our guest computer, printer and copier, as well as free WiFi, allows you to check email or keep abreast of your business.

Help yourself to a selection of homemade goodies and beverages in the light, breezy, dining room. At day's end, enjoy a complimentary glass of wine on one of our rocking-chair porches and relax in the peace and quiet of beautiful Madison, GA.

About Your Hosts

In May of 2006, unable to find a buyer, the Brady Inn Bed and Breakfast was scheduled to be broken into small lots and sold, the furnishings auctioned off. As the deadline approached, the extended Conrads family -- parents, brothers, sisters, and spouses -- responded and rescued the Inn. But who would run it?

Karen, the oldest daughter, and her husband, Peter Wibell, had always loved visiting B&Bs and thought someday they might enjoy having one of their own. Suddenly, that someday was here! Karen's professional career had focused on sales and marketing of home furnishings. The two had met and married while Peter was managing restaurants in New York City and Dallas while working on his doctorate as a family and marriage counselor. They moved to Georgia with their two young daughters in 1997 to be closer to grandparents, cousins, uncles and aunts. Together, their genuine interest in people, love of fine food, attention to detail, and hospitality experience make them gracious hosts. Today, Peter concentrates his time at the Inn; Karen is involved in community philanthropy and is a writer and artist.
