It was a nice, beautiful area on a golf course and lake. It was convenient to Giant City Park and access to Carbondale's many restaurant options. Parking at our cabin was a little tight with a small area for three cabin renters to share

Perfect location

This is our second time staying at these cabins, and they are exactly what we need. The cabins are located next to a golf course (that's being renovated), and we were able to walk the course with our dog each morning. It is perfectly located just a short drive to SIU (where my son attends) and Giant City State Park. The cabins are clean and well stocked. Most importantly, the area is SAFE!
