Girlfriend reunion

It was a midway meeting point for a 20 year friendship driving from Peoria IL, Bourbonnais IL and Lexington KY. The cabin was a dream. It is decorated beautifully and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub and the rockers on front porch with hours of conversation and card games. We ventured into town only once to do some antique/thrift shopping. We realized our time was better in the woods so shopping was cut short! We can’t wait to go back! Each morning we had a visit from the prettiest bird!

Peacefulness

Needed a relaxing getaway, this cabin was perfect. Close enough to food and a few shops but far enough from city chaos. Cabin was very clean. HotTub was amazing. We have stayed at one of the other cabins in this group but this one was our fave.

Cabin Luxury

We were expecting a simple, quiet cabin in the woods for a brief get away. Although listings often use flowery adjectives like luxurious and cozy, this one was truly a standout. High-end kitchenware, unique and regionally appropriate decor and art, leather furniture, a Pendleton wool blanket for the couch and so much more made us immediately feel like a welcomed guest at a friend’s home. It was perfect!
