This is our second time staying and it was lovely.

Great stay. Cabin is clean and spacious for a couple. Close to Carbondale. Highly recommend.

We always enjoy these cabins, quite and accommodating

Everything was very clean and the host was very kind and friendly. We really in joyed our stay, I did some hunting and had a little luck got an 8 point and a doe. The wife and i visited some wineries and road around looking at the beautiful scenery. Ron & Margaret

Fantastic

Great location and communication! Had stayed many times under previous management and always loved these cabin. Appreciate the upgrades, like WiFi and grills. Prompt and easy to communicate with host.

Cabin was super clean and very cozy. The host had everything ready and a sweet goody basket. Great stay and will seek accomodations at the cabins again next year.

Great cabin! Great host! Would love to stay here again!

Thank you Steve for hosting us at the cabin. What beautiful & peaceful location! We always enjoy our time around the wine trail and orchards! We have never been disappointed when we have stayed any of your properties. We also appreciate you letting us do a late checkout today.

Cabin # 5 is awesome. We stayed 3 nights ..cooked steaks and burgers on the grill and had a couple of camp fires in the back. The place is clean and had everything we needed. We opened the blinds and let in sunshine all day..the price is right and the owners care about that place. I love it!!!

Clean and secure cabin that is a duplex. Somewhat dated with a few dings on the walls and exterior that could use new paint/stain. No stove but there were several small appliances to cook with i.e. slow cooker, skillet, toaster. Bed was clean and comfortable. Could benefit from an additional reading light behind recliner. Everything worked and would not hesitate staying here again!

I was very happy with the cleanliness and amenities including Internet access, snacks, bathing, and comfortable sleeping.

Very quaint and quiet. We had a lovely time. Nice little get away!

The location was good and I like to bow hunt and they have good deer hunting in the area. My wife enjoyed her stay also, we went to a winery just a few miles away and enjoyed that also. We plan on going again next year.

Was such a roomy cabin with all of the comforts of home! Steve definitely thought of everything! We will definitely make this a yearly visit! The cabin itself was close to everything yet secluded for a private feel. I highly recommend a visit

Quiet, little cabin close to the wine trail. The fireplace was nice and gave the cabin a cozy feel.

Very clean, very nice cabin. Lots of things to do.

We had a nice stay at the cabin. It was very clean and in a nice area, easy to find. A screen in the sliding door was ripped so we did not open it. The small fridge was too cold and we had a hard time adjusting it so some of our food froze. But overall we would recommend this cabin. The area is very hilly and beautiful with lots of hiking trails. Some difficult to find.

We absolutely loved our stay here. So peacefully quiet, love the little welcome baskets. It was super clean and had everything we needed for the stay. Loved sitting on the deck enjoying the morning coffee or looking at the stars. It's great that the property is close enough to town it's not a hassle to run to the store, but it's remote enough to not be bothered.

We came to visit our son at SIU for a few days. This was a great option for bringing our little dog with us. We were very pleasantly surprised to see how well the wifi connection was as we both worked remotely during this time. The cabin was clean, comfortable and close to a residential area where we took several long walks. We also appreciated the air conditioning when the temperatures rose above 80.

Basicly the property was what we wanted but it turned out to have been infested with fleas . We got eaten up pretty good before we discovered the source . We enjoyed the area.

The cabin was situated close to some hiking trails and not far from Shawnee. I stayed there with my two four-legged hiking buddies. Plenty of room, everything worked and was clean. Place had WiFi made it easier to download my body cam footage straight to my laptop. All in all, I will stay there again. Steve was very helpful and made sure I liked the cabin. He even pointed out flaws — apologied for them; even though they were not noticeable to me. He made the stay even more comfortable than it already was. I would recommend this place if you are looking for somewhere to chill at after spending the entire day exploring the national forests in the area.

Everything was perfect it was just what i needed and anytime i needed anything steve was ready to help. Very peaceful and quite.
