Matt, we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Scout's Haven. You and your family were wonderful guests and we would love to host you again.
Property was beautiful. Set back surrounded by nature but still close to restaurants and beaches. Our family enjoyed the pool the most and swinging in the hammocks. We had 6 kids and 6 adults and each family had their own level. It felt big enough for all! We will be visiting agai !

Thank you Amy! We're beyond happy to hear you had a great stay and appreciate you sharing this!
Cute & clean log cabin farm house with a great pool and jacuzzi. Huge lawn and a pond if you like fishing. The pool has comfy loungers, several umbrellas and a great automatic cover. There is a large outdoor sectional and an outdoor dining table for 8. The barn cat is adorable! When we had a few questions, the property manager was super responsive! Quiet area - secluded with lots of land and trees. Stocked with everything you need for a beautiful getaway about 1.5 hours from Chicago. Highly recommend!!
