Cave Creek is a peaceful little stream running through our wooded property. Sit at the drink rail on the upper deck and let the relaxing sounds of the creek ease your cares away.

Conveniently located on the western edge of the Shawnee Wine Trail, our cabin is close to the many activities, wineries, breweries or restaurants the region has to offer. Enjoy the orchard blooms in the spring and in summer and fall, the bountiful harvest is available at the orchard stores. Our cabin offers the perfect accommodations for a family reunion, pre-wedding event, wedding weekend or a quite, relaxing getaway with friends.

Beautiful artisan crafted wood features and furniture made from reclaimed wood throughout make the cabin unique. The comfort of our guests is foremost in our minds. The cabin is multi level with two large covered decks overlooking Cave Creek so you can enjoy relaxing outdoors even on a rainy day. A spacious 1500 sq ft, the cabin can sleep up to 8 guests, has a full kitchen stocked with cookware and dinnerware. The kitchen, dining area for 8, and living area with gas fireplace, recliner and HD-TV are located on the entry level. A bedroom, with very comfortable queen bed, a full bath and a sleeper sofa are located on each level.

The large family area, featuring board games and game table, satellite, HD-TV, DVD/CD player are located on the lower level. With a bedroom and full bath on each level, our cabins are perfect for multi couples or families. Our showers have great water pressure, too!

Luxurious linens and bath towels provided. Soap, shampoo, paper products and some cleaning supplies available. Large vanities in the bath and hair dryers for our guest's needs.

A dusk to dawn security light illuminates the parking area and cabin entry. A fire pit and grilling area (charcoal grill) are located on the creek side of the cabin. Relax around a crackling fire, take a leisurely walk on the quite lane or have a seat on the covered decks listening to the creek as it passes by.

Just north of Alto Pass, off Highway 127 on a quiet country lane, our property is located in the midst of orchard property making it a tranquil setting. There's tons of great hiking trails or good fishing nearby. You can take a pottery class, zip line through the Shawnee canopy, learn to repel at the state park or you could just relax while sipping some locally crafted wine or brews. Take a short drive to the Bald Knob Cross of Peace, located on the most prominent elevation in So. Illinois, for a multi state view or unforgettable sunrise.

    This was the second time we stayed in the cabins and once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Such a nice, clean, cozy cabin in a very quiet location! We like to cook and appreciate the full kitchen. Sunrise on the back deck was very, very nice. Shirley & Roger are super hosts! Thank you!! We'll be back...

    This was our second time booking out both cabins for a friends weekend. The cabin was just as comfortable and intuitive to stay in as last year, and it was so nice to return somewhere and feel like we knew the layout!

    We stayed over the long weekend and was pleasantly surprised that this place had everything we'd need. They even had a step stool for my kids to get on the bed! Place was clean, well stocked, very spacious, and the fire pit was my kids favorite part since we got to roast s'mores. The board games were also a nice perk and the two family rooms were nice. Overall, will definitely come again!

    The cabin was warm and inviting. We booked it mainly for the proximity to Havisham House as that is where our grandson’s wedding was held. We didn’t get to spend a lot of time at the cabin due to all the wedding festivities, but we talked about coming back for a weekend stay during the fall.

    These cabins are so beautiful! - the wood absolutely shines. We have stayed several times at these cabins (we always try to book them both at the same time), and have never been disappointed. They are always clean, very well stocked with kitchen essentials and toiletries. The beds are very comfortable We bring a different group with us each time and they are all amazed at what the owner provides for our use. The wood pile is always well stocked and they even provide charcoal and fluid for the grill!! These cabins are truly a peaceful retreat!! There is even a stream!

    These cabins were the perfect setting for our friends weekend. Wineries and restaurants close by, we enjoyed the fire pit area, and we had room to stretch out and feel at home. This has become an annual tradition of ours, and I foresee us staying here for years to come.

    We booked both cabins for a friends getaway. The generous accommodations had plenty of room for everyone to have enough space, enjoy their quiet, and spend time together. The location is convenient to the outdoor activities we had planned for and plenty of restaurants. We will definitely be back!
