Beautiful home with everything we needed for an amazing family vacation on the lake! The host was very responsive and made sure everything went smoothly during our stay. The arrival and departure processes were some of the easiest we’ve encountered. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful home with an amazing sun room across back where we spent most inside time. Very clean, great dock. We rented a pontoon boat for two days at the very close marina and a jet ski for a couple hours. Swimming dock was nice with kayaks and SUP. Great kitchen very well stocked with all you need. Nice deck for grilling. We will come back.

Peaceful Weekend

We enjoyed a peaceful weekend with some close friends. The back room was so peaceful that we had a hard time leaving it. There was room for all of us to recline, relax, and enjoy the view. We also made a big fancy dinner in the kitchen, which was fully equipped! We took multiple soaks in the hot tub, which can be accessed without going outside. It was just what we needed, and we will definitely come back!

Checks Every Box

The owner puts a lot of thought and care into everything here. Communication was very clear. Spacious inside and outside for so many activities. Very quiet. Very clean. Fantastic views. The coffee setup (yes both kinds of coffee makers) is sweet too. We plan to return.

This place was AMAZING! It was exactly what we were looking for. The house is HUGE. We had 9 big people and 3 kids and everyone had plenty of space. The owner has literally thought of everything with this house, there were board games for the young and old, kids toys, highchair, playpen, coffee, creamer, detergent…..everything! We can not recommend this house enough. We also rented a boat for one day but honestly there was no need for the boat the dock provided enough space for swimming and the kids loved the jumping dock.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image

Our venture into vacation rental hosting has taken a distinctive route. For many years, while our children were young, Brian and I managed long-term single-family rentals. Our discovery of Airbnb transformed our travel preferences, whether traveling as a couple, with our children, or with friends, particularly to Southern Illinois and the Lake of Egypt region, where we frequently visited enjoying the hiking trails, wineries, and of course the lake. Once our children were grown, we sold our long-term rentals and invested in a home in our favorite area to reconnect and relax, intending to occasionally rent it out. This soon evolved, with family and friends frequently requesting to rent our home, exceeding our capacity. We realized we had a passion for hosting, which led us to seek additional properties. We are committed to expanding our portfolio and sharing our love for this unique area with our guests.

Why they chose this property

Nestled less than 10 minutes from Highway 57, this property offers a serene retreat at the end of a quiet and private road. Abundant with wildlife, it is uniquely positioned across from the ski zone, while situated in a tranquil no-wake cove providing the perfect balance of accessibility and peacefulness.
