Rocky Waters Vineyard/Winery Guest House Hanover IL

I stayed at this cabin over Thanksgiving with my family and our golden retriever. We couldn’t have been more happy with our secluded stay and with how great the hosts had been. We will definitely visit again.

We enjoyed our return to this cabin.

Property is gorgeous, cabin is well stocked, and the host was very responsive.

We were so happy with our stay! The hosts were wonderful, always available. The home is secluded and quiet with great views. Our dogs loved all the space. We will be back!

The property was excellent we enjoyed ourselves that’s our fourth year there we’re gonna make it every year an annual

Kyle was an extremely welcoming host to my family and I. The property is gorgeous and the seclusion makes the experience very peaceful. My young children had the absolute time of their lives just playing in the lake, walking the property and seeing the wildlife. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be going back again in the future. Bonus- the fishing was excellent!

Very nice stay, everything was clean and well maintained. Winery is just up the hill from the cabin. Secluded location and private lake. This was a great spot for a long family vacation and pet friendly.

Kyle was very prompt with answering any questions I had. The cabin was very cozy, offered many extra amenities that most VRBO’s I have stayed at did not. If you’re looking for a secluded getaway, this is it! Our group was a tad disappointed that we were not able to partake in some wine tasting while during our stay, but we would love to revisit! We hope that we can book next year!! Thank you Rocky Waters Winery for everything!

We stayed for a weekend and had a great experience! The owners were very easy to contact with any questions or concerns we had!

Kyle was great about communication and coordination, working with us at every turn to make our stay enjoyable. Property was well maintained, clean, and a great escape from the city.

The house and property were beautiful! We throughly enjoyed our stay! We also went to the winery and it was beautiful. Nice lake to swim and relax on. The owners of the house were very friendly and responded to questions promptly. Would highly recommend!

This property in Hanover was absolutely stunning. From the charm of the wooden cabin to the spaciousness of three bathrooms and three bedrooms, along with such a clean, private lake, this was a fantastic find. Kyle was an incredible host, with lightning-fast responses and assistance, a personal knowledge of the wines made on the property, and just a very earnest and relatable approach to hosting. Galena was only a 20 minute drive, and Woodbine Bend Golf Course was also beautiful and in close proximity. Bonus points for all the different types of fish in the lake! We would definitely love to stay here again!

Beautiful home on a gorgeous winery. Definitely recommend!

The cabin had everything we needed and more. Wish we could have stayed longer. It's been on my bucket list to stay there since the first time we visited the winery years ago. Loved it

What a great house and property. Located near Galena, Mississippi River and a various state parks/trails. The house was perfect, clean, had everything needed for family of 5. Had dinner and a tasting at the main winery bldg on property. Property management/owners were accessible the entire stay and were very helpful. Tons of property to explore, fishing/spending time on lake, s’mores over the fire pit at night, fall colors everywhere. Entire family really enjoyed the long weekend on this property.

Had a great weekend with family. Enjoyed the property and would recommend to anyone.

Everything was as advertised. Kitchen is well stocked and the place was clean. The winery is very nice and it was fun talking with the owners and hearing the history of the place. We had a blast hanging around the campfire at night. Definitely would stay here again.

It’s was good

The property IS GORGEOUS. A lot of wildlife. The cabin is great. It has a lot of steep steps and hills. The place is great if the weather is great. We would have felt pretty cramped if the weather kept us inside - though, I guess we'd have spent more time at the winery. (Only open until 4 or 5pm) The wifi does not reach the beach, no cell service there. The TV in the family area is very old. The beach could use another load of sand, but we were there late in the season. (August) *IF YOU DRIVE A CAR, YOU MAY NOT GO BACK UP THE DRIVE TO THE CABIN. You need 4 wheel drive. There was no mention of the steep, curvy, rutted, gravel trail to the house. Our Mazda 5 (not a tough car). Was stuck several times and smoking and full of rocks by the time we got back out of there at checkout. We would still be there if we hadn't had 3 dry days. Overall, a great stay. House has everything else you need and oozes charm. You just need good knees and a SUV with some go!

Very cozy, private, with lots of convenience

Was perfect.. 2 nights was not enough. Beautiful setting.

It was clean, quiet, private and most of all, the kitchen is well equipped!

Wonderful, quiet spot. Dogs loved swimming in the lake and roaming around. Had a wonderful visit to the winery as well.

Loved the front porch. Great view and ambiance
