About the host
Hosted by Kris Shellabarger
We built our log cabin in 2008 down at Lake of Egypt. We built a rental cabin to share because we have so much fun at the lake! We rent our Red Roof Retreat and have had so much fun renting to such amazing people that we refinished the Little Moon to share in the beauty and fun of the area.
Why they chose this property
This was a little shed that was on the property when we bought it in 2008. We finished the inside and stayed in in while we built our log cabin next door. Since then, many of our friends come to visit and love to stay in the Little Moon cabin on Lake of Egypt because it is similar to camping with all of the benefits of a tiny home. Open the windows and you feel like you are laying in a tent... only you are laying in a fluffy lofted bed! When we decided to rent this one also, we changed the inside to suit all types of guests and their needs.
What makes this property unique
Outdoor (private) shower that is so great to jump into after a day on the lake. It's especially fun when it's raining outside and it's always warm! Morning coffee will turn to afternoon lunch and evening cocktails on the deck facing the lake. You will see birds, wildlife, fish and turtles in the lake and all sorts of lake activity if you sit long enough. The Lake of Egypt night sky is beautiful and you will have a hard time tearing yourself away to go inside and sleep!
