"Great visit"

"What a perfect location for a weekend getaway! Breathtaking views that were perfect for sitting with a cup of coffee and a good book. Property was clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for the weekend. Highly recommend!"

"Adorable modern cabin in a very secluded area on the Wine Trail. We had a great time - the hot tub was so relaxing after a day at the a wineries. Loved watching the cows and the bull at the neighboring property, and we even saw deer on Sunday morning. Will definitely book again!"

"It was amazing, we enjoyed the view and the hot tub. It was clean and quite.we had a great and relaxing time. thank you."

"I very much enjoyed staying at this cabin. It was clean, comfortable & close to the Shawnee National Forest & the Wine Trail. The bed & furniture were comfortable. The kitchenette allowed me to have all meals in, as it has a half-refrigerator, microwave, sink, coffeemaker, plates, glasses & mugs. The bathroom towels were luxurious & there was ample soap, shower gel, shampoo & conditioner. The heat & air-conditioning were easy to use. I was able to sit out on the deck every morning, even when it...

"Met all our expectations. Smart finish, easy to find, great hot tub. Comfortable and relaxing. We enjoyed exploring and sampling the Shawnee Wine Trail."

"This is such an amazing clean cabin tucked away in the countryside residing along the southern Illinois wine trail."

"We really enjoyed the property & having a fun oasis! The host was very helpful and communicable with my partner & I! Thank you for everything!!"

"Other than not having a range top the cabin had everything we could ask for! Cleanliness and location were premier."

"Great little cabin and very clean. I enjoyed my stay! It wasn’t on the lake as I pictured but other than that it was perfect."

"Great property! While there are other cabins on the property they are far enough away from each other so you have total privacy. Enjoyed sitting on the back deck and just enjoying the surroundings. Beautifully decorated! Comfortable bed! Fan in bedroom a very nice and welcomed surprise!! Have already booked a second trip!"

"The cabin was adorable. The grounds around the pond and the cabin were all neatly mowed. Pond gave us extra excitement for our short trip as we fished. Really enjoyed our stay in this great little cabin. It didn’t bother us as we read all the amenities, but there is no stove. Just know this. There is a microwave though. Also the DIRECTV has about every station you can possibly think of to watch.Including Pay stations. This is a 9 out of 10. Super relaxing!"

"First I was surprised there was no wifi. But my daughter had wifi from her work that she brought so that worked. Couldn’t find a trash can in the kitchen. Text and called but no response. Then it was so dark in there. Not even a lightbulb in the nightstand lights. Even the bedrooms were dark. Plus there was a light over the bathroom sink. Could find a switch to make it come on. Cushions outside very worn and tattered. Other than that it was great. Nothing we couldn’t work around. Great location."

"Great, quaint cabin, that is well maintained and tastefully appointed. Setting on the covered porch looking out over the trees and pasture made me feel like I was 1000 miles from anywhere. The hobby farm next door was really cool. There were all kinds of animals on the property, many roaming free. I even saw a skulk of foxes as I pulled into the property. A quick 8 minute drive and you were in Carbondale. Very cool."

"I would definitely recommend this cabin for all events and all gatherings it's cozy, beautiful property, clean and I felt like home... we came Illinois to visit our grandkids we brought them to the property they had a great time we were able to go see Giant City Park we had a wonderful time 10 out of 10 five stars will be staying again next time."

"Tom was a most gracious host! He provided great information on the area and activities and went out of his way to ensure all our needs were met. His property is a perfect weekend retreat, with little touches, that made it extra special. The people in the area were very welcoming, too! Check out the donation-based full buffet breakfast on Sat mornings from 8:30-10 AM at Eagle Point Lodge, just around the corner. Friendly folks, and a great way to start your day exploring all the state parks!...

"Came to see our daughter graduate college, left with some amazing memories. Cabin was beautiful and secluded. Felt like an oasis."

"It was close to many state parks and very close to Carbondale. Very quiet "

"We had a great time at the cabin. It’s comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Thank you!"
