Beautiful location in the secluded woods
This is your peaceful and serene nature getaway with an off grid appeal. It is secluded and beautiful and borders the Shawnee National Forest boundary. It is right on the wine trail in southern Illinois, with plenty of orchards and famous hiking trails such as Little Grand Canyon and Pomona Natural Bridge. Hunting is legal on this 8.2 acre property, and there are plenty of places to hike on the property and into the connecting Shawnee National Forest. There are picnic areas in the woods and a spacious back deck to enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine while enjoying the sunset. This place is very secluded and there is almost no traffic as it sits on a one lane farm road. The entire home has been renovated and remodeled, with a wood burning stove inside. For 2024, it is in the heart of total darkness for the eclipse! Rent this secluded place and have it all to yourself for the week! Your pets are more than welcome! The bedrooms sleep 5 people. Extra guests are welcome to bring air mattresses. The kitchen has coffee and a coffee maker, as well as ice and water. There is bathtub and a shower for guests. There is also a sheltered picnic area outside in case of rain, as well as a covered back deck. WI-FI has just been added to the home! .
A few family members and I stayed for our annual girls weekend trip. The host was great with communication and we felt very welcomed at this secluded house. With three bedrooms, we had plenty of space to relax and enjoy our time away from home. The surrounding woods gives a very private feel. The location was wonderful for our weekend winery trip. We didn't have time to explore the Natural Bridge or The Little Grand Canyon, but we were very close to the Shawnee National Forest.
What a wonderful place to stay.The owners were attentive and stayed in contact to ensure everything was ok.The property itself would be a great location for a family and/or friends vacation!
Location was good, deck was great. Lighting in house was dark. Bed was not comfortable. AC does not cool bedrooms. No measuring cup or whisk. Those would be nice as we ate at the house.
The house is exactly as described. Very clean and had everything we needed, comfortable beds, hot shower with good pressure and everything we needed to make meals in the kitchen. We loved how quiet and peaceful it was there. And we really appreciated how dog friendly the host is! Just be aware that their are a lot of ticks and mosquitoes if you bring your pets!
My husband and I had a great stay here with our two dogs to get away from our noisy city over the 4th of July. The property was lovely, the house had everything we needed and more. Our host was super fast to respond to all inquiries, plus gave us some tips for sightseeing and local restaurants (I was previously unaware of Inspiration Point and it was gorgeous!!!). It was a perfect and peaceful stay, and we would most definitely stay here again. Thank you! :)
The cabin was perfect, neat and clean, it had all we needed for the stay. This will be a perfect place to spend with family away from busy schedule, host was very friendly and kind, replies fast. We stayed three nights, there isnt much to explore around but it was relaxing.!! We went to ponoma natural bridge, Bald knob Cross and Cedar Lake beach.
On the west side of the beautiful Shawnee National Forest, this house is perfect for a couple, friends, small family or retreat. Quiet, very secluded, very comfortable and spacious. Good supplies, unless you plan to cook a lot - bring fry pans, large pots. Location offers beautiful hiking, good wineries and quaint towns to peruse. Highly recommend, we enjoyed our anniversary here.
Our trip was to attend my son's graduation from SIU. The cabin was in an accessible spot to Carbondale and was great for the 5 of us. We enjoyed our stay!
Owner was very communicative. House was very clean! A little off the beaten path, but worth the price. It rained the whole time, so we did not get to enjoy the outside but looked very scenic.
The property was just as advertised. Very secluded, quiet, and peaceful. My only suggestion for an improved stay is in regard to the mercury vapor light on the pole in the front of the house. It was so bright that it lit up the bedroom facing the front of the house. Had to place a towel over the blinds to dim it. That bedroom would greatly benefit from room darkening curtains.
We had a great time staying here. We sat outside on the porch for hours. When it got darker we had a fire and got the porch lights going. It was very relaxing and a beautiful stay. The only suggestion we have is to get curtains on the windows in the bedroom because the light out there is very bright and it was shining in our eyes but we hung something over the blinds. And maybe an option for blinds in the bathroom. We would definitely book again for a nice little getaway.
Amazing! Me and some friends stayed for 2 nights and had the best experience! The host messaged me to make sure we could get to the property, since it was so remote. Then, he kept in constant contact with me and was so timely with all of my questions! The house was so clean and beautiful! We didnât have any problems with heat, air, or water temperature! For well water, the pressure was amazing and the water was so hot! Iâm sure we will be coming back the next time we want to go to the Shawnee Wine Trails! 10/10 experience!
Stayed at this property to birdwatch in the Shawnee and Cache, the property was excellent. Had barred owls, yellow-throated warbler, hooded warbler, and other great birds right there at the house.The host was wonderful and answered any questions we had promptly, they were nothing but helpful. Thanks again for the great stay.
Absolutely beautiful property! We loved staying at the lodge so much and will definitely be coming back. Such a great location, beautiful views. We have nothing but great things to say about our stay. The host was very responsive and helpful. Such a great experience! Adult, kids and doggy approved of this awesome place!
