Nice Cabin in the Woods
The owner was wonderful to work with! We made a wrong turn getting there and she was quickly available to get us where we needed to be. She also was kind enough to let us get in early when we had a little issue. Cabin was nice and comfortable. We loved the hot tub and if you love birds, we were sung to every day by the most beautiful songs. It’s a great location!

Girl's trip
Had a great time at this property. We enjoyed the location to many wineries/shops and the people in the towns were great. Pleasant hosts to work with via chat. Only suggestions are to have a bath mat and possibly bodywash/shampoo available, as we forgot ours.

Beautiful property in Southern IL
My husband and my two pups stayed for 5 nights and really enjoyed a quiet clean and accomodating stay. Hot tub was a treat coming home to every night and we enjoyed the cool air conditioning during the hot june weather. Attractions were a short easy drive away . Everything was clean and the shower was amazing. We ended up booking an extra night due to a rain day but we felt right at home staying and catching up on our favorite shows the day we missed out on hiking. Great place to stay for a couple or small family with pets wanting to experience southern illinois. Pictured is a froggy that came up to the porch every time we used the hot tub.

Nice stay with the dog!
This was a good location for exploring southern Illinois and Shawnee National Forest. We enjoyed some hikes with the dog at Giant City State Park before the storms hit. The furnishings were comfortable and the hot tub was a perfect ending to the day.

Star gazing from the hot tub
Really nice little place in the middle of nowhere but also close to hiking spots and wineries. Very clean and just the right size for our small family. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and seeing all of the stars at night. Lovely owners and good communication. Easy to check in and out.

This was a great place. It was impeccably clean. We had plenty of space for our family of 5. The hot tub was a wonderful reward after all day hiking in Shawnee National Forest.
Loved our weekend away at this little gem! It was so quiet and the hot tub was so relaxing! We definitely plan on returning.
