Absolutely Fantastic

The property was amazing. Everything was clean, and as good, if not better than the pictures. The view of the sunsets from the front porch and the chairs by the fire pit were stunning. There are several wineries close to the cabin, which made it an easy day trip out. We were far enough out that it felt like we were the only people around, while still being a short drive to stores and restaurants. All of us agreed that it was the perfect place to stay for some much needed R&R. The guide Alison sent out prior to our stay was very helpful. My only complaint is that I should have booked another night- we didn’t want to leave.

Great Family Getaway

We stayed at this property about a year ago and decided to stay again. Once again, we were not disappointed! The cabin was clean and cozy. It feels secluded, but is only about a 10 to 15 minute drive to Giant City. We lucked out with beautiful weather, but would have had fun even in the cold and rain. The gas fireplace keeps the place warm, and there’s plenty of space in in the kitchen. A lot of the basic utensils, pots/pans, plates, etc were available for our use. Got to see a lot of deer and different wildlife sitting on the porch. The entire family had a great time and can’t wait to go back!

Birthday get away

The cabin location is lovely. It is clean and welcoming, quiet and tucked away. The weather was heavy rain and cold our entire stay so we had no outside time. Very nice place!

Great cabin with easy access to hiking

This cabin feels like it’s out in the middle of nowhere, but it’s a short drive to Carbondale and to Giant City State Park and the Shawnee National Forest. It had good amenities and was cozy and comfy. I would definitely stay here again.
