The cabin had everything we needed! It was cozy and clean. I loved all the Illinois-themed decor and little touches. We did not have our kids with us but we would love to come back in the summer and bring our kiddos! The loft area was cute and I know they would love the hot tub and fire pit area.

Hot tub was clean and so was the cabin. The dryer was not functioning properly which meant it took a very long time to dry towels. But besides that everything was great.

Cabin Luxury

We were expecting a simple, quiet cabin in the woods for a brief get away. Although listings often use flowery adjectives like luxurious and cozy, this one was truly a standout. High-end kitchenware, unique and regionally appropriate decor and art, leather furniture, a Pendleton wool blanket for the couch and so much more made us immediately feel like a welcomed guest at a friend’s home. It was perfect!

Beautiful bachelorette weekend!

We had the pleasure of staying in this amazing microcabin, there was four of us and it was the perfect size. Our bride said she was wanted to stay in a little cabin in the woods for her bachelorette and when I found this place, it was the perfect spot! The aesthetic was 10/10, down to every little detail! Even though it was hot and humid the weekend we stayed, we still enjoyed the hot tub. It’s in a really great location and traveling to the nearest town was simple so you could still enjoy the restaurants the cities had to offer. All in all, 5/5 stars, so grateful to have found this hidden gem!
