Carbondale, Illinois
Step back in time, but leave no modern amenity behind. This Charleston style Southern mansion, located just one mile from Pine Manor, has five bedrooms, an old fashioned 5 bed attic bedroom, and 4.5 baths, the 10,000 square foot Oak Manor is the second largest guest house at Pine Manor Estates. It sits on over 10 acres with two private stocked lakes, private movie room, library and man cave with poker table. Enjoy warm Southern Illinois afternoons and cool southern cocktails on the grand porch, time seems to have a way of just slowing down to the perfect pace at Oak Manor.
This property was perfect for a group of college friends and our kids to reconnect. Plenty of space and luxury, not to mention close to the wine trail. We would love to stay again in the future!
I have nothing but nice things to say about this house and our experience. It was amazing, there were 10 friends staying for a weekend and we had plenty of space and privacy. We planned to cook and hang out and always worry about rental house kitchens not being well stocked with cooking essentials or place settings but it was the opposite, I’ve never been to a vacation property that was this well equipped. The kitchen had plenty of pots, pans, serving dishes, place settings, flatware, wine glasses and refrigerator space (there’s an extra in the garage!). The spaces in the house were comfortable and clean and gave us lots of opportunities to change scenery (coffee on the porch, breakfast in the breakfast nook, dinner in the dining room, dessert on the veranda). We did have an issue with the lower oven not staying on and I emailed the host, someone was knocking on the door to check on it within the hour. It couldn’t be fixed while we were there, which wasn’t an issue, but the response time was impressive and appreciated. We would definitely return, everything was clean, lovely, and high end. The bathrooms had toiletries, and there was a basket in the entry with extras like big spray and sunscreen to use if you forgot it. The extra touches were thoughtful.
We spent three wonderful days at this beautiful house. It was very comfortable, with plenty of room for our entire family, 12 adults and 6 children. There was plenty to do at the location, swimming, fishing, relaxing, as well around the area, horseback riding, parks, wine tasting. The hostess was very friendly and helpful, easy to reach and responding immediately to our needs. We give this location the best rating possible!!
This property was even more beautiful than the pictures! Everything was clean and well maintained. Very quiet family friendly place, we had amazing time. Would recommend 10/10!!!!
The house and the property are very nice. Plenty of room to hang out and enjoy ourselves. Would definitely stay here again!
