Relaxing

Friends just wanting to get away from our kids and responsibilities and this cabin was perfect. Close enough to town that we went out for some very nice meals and exploring and a fully functional kitchen for all the snacking and lounging we were looking for. Perfect mom getaway.

The cabin was well-stocked and is in a great location, close to many of the hiking trails and vineyards we visited. We had a couple of hiccups first with Wi-Fi and then the dishwasher, but the owner was very responsive and provided excellent communication. Also, the hot tub was a welcome respite at the end of our hiking days :-)

Our family was in town to tour SIU - this house was cozy and so nice! Beautifully decorated, well-stocked, and so many thoughtful touches! The hot tub and fire “pit” were such a nice luxury. Thanks so much!

This cabin was perfect for my wifes 40th birthday getaway! We invited two other couples to join us. We explored the views of southern Illinois, went to many local wineries and ended out evening sitting around the fire pit and soaking in the hottub! It was good to get away from reality and decompress with some close friends. We shared many laughs and life stories. Talked about our kids and goals in life. Steve(owner) stopped and introduced himself as we were unloading our things on the first night! He made it perfectly clear that if we needed anything at all to call and he would be sure we were taken care of. We will definitely be back to enjoy another weekend.

Perfect cabin and area!

This is the greatest cabin! Plenty of sleeping space, and well stocked. The outdoor space was a beautiful oasis. This is the nicest and cleanest hot tub I’ve ever been in! Can’t say enough great things about Steve and his cabin! I love the town of Makanda, and I will be back soon!

Great place in a great location

This place was easy to get to right off the main road. I think this place has all the amenities you could need. The hot tub is very large. The host promptly responded to my questions. Our family of four really enjoyed our stay and hope to again in the future.

This is a great place to stay if you want to visit Giant City State Park and surrounding area. The house has a small indoor gathering area but the deck is spacious and the hot tub and view of the moon over the golf course were wonderful.
