Well equipped house and cabin. We also enjoyed the fire pit outside. The host (Steve) was very responsive.
quiet neighborhood. Beautiful views and lots of fun stuff to do in the area. Could use updated patio furniture.
Very nice
This was a great location for our family to come in and visit us. It was easy to get between Ana in Carbondale which is the two locations we wanted to visit. The views were fabulous and we just had a great time!
It was perfect for our size family of varying ages. The benefit of having 2 houses was that for people who might want quiet time away from the large family group could slip away to the cabin while the main action was at the house. The houses were clean, although some of the furniture was showing wear. The steps on the deck to the main house leading to the front need some maintenance, one of them was almost rotted through which could be dangerous, but other than that it was great having the covered deck with the table to have meals. If it hadn't been so hot we would have spent even more time out there. The views were very pretty. We saw several deer in the fields. The host was very accommodating also - he replaced a shower head just as we were checking in to ensure we had a nice shower in the guest cabin for our visit.
Host was extremely responsive, we were able to do early check in. The houses were both stocked and had everything we needed. The complementary items were a huge bonus. Check in and check out we’re a breeze. There were tons of movies and games. Firewood available. Beds were PHENOMENAL. Seriously couldn’t of asked for a better house to spend our weekend away. It felt like home away from home.
9 of us shared this property and we rented both houses on it. Upon arrival, we found a fully stocked home to include fire wood, anything in the kitchen you would need (our group cooks so this is important), snacks to welcome us and clean bathrooms with soaps available. The houses and properties were both cared for very well. The owner was easy to reach to answer questions. I would stay here again without hesitation!
We always take an annual wine trip with several other couples and this year decided to come back to Southern, IL. We rented both the house and the cabin. Everything was great and the owner was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!
We had a great experience, the host was very responsive to any questions and really made the stay great. The homes were beautiful and well kept, and the surrounding area was stunningly beautiful. I hope to stay again when we’re back in the area!
We came to celebrate my mils 100th birthday! There were 3 families 12 total. We had so much fun. Very well stocked clean and beautiful view!
