Decent stay
The cabin itself has a nice layout with a quaint view and big beautiful windows. Unfortunately there is no hot tub as was in the listing, the pinball machines require quarters and overall the space is no well kept or stocked. We are a family of four and had one other family stay with us, but we didn’t have enough sheets, blankets or pillows. The location is great with an easy drive to giant city.

Wonderful vacation
Stayed here for 5 days and we didn't have any issues. Tom was very easy to contact if needed and came out promptly to adjust the zipline when asked. He gave some great recommendations for local restaurants as well.

Nice weekend getaway!
Tom’s cabin is perfect for a group of friends. The grill is great to cook on and there are enough bathrooms for a larger group. The beach is fun to relax on and have a nighttime bonfire. It’s not the most updated or modern, but it has good bones. Overall we would recommend for a friends getaway!

Family wine trip
Great site for our family wine trip. Convenient check in. The turn off for the cabin wasn't marked and quarters are needed for the games in the basement. Note, that it's right across the road from a track and trains went by twice (day and night) while we were there.

You are definitely paying for the outdoor experience here. The pond was incredible, as was the beach. The kids, dogs, and adults all enjoyed it equally. Luckily, the weather was beautiful so we did not spend much time inside. Thank you Tom!

We were there long enough to shower, sleep and leave. Only 1 pinball machine worked while there; coins stuck in others. Communication was not the best, but worked it out in the end.

Family Winery Trip
There were 10 of us for a weekend winery getaway. The weather was chilly so we didn't use the lake but enjoyed the view and got some nice outdoor family photos. The cabin was within 6 miles to several wineries. In the evenings we enjoyed hanging out in the open kitchen/living room area. We had read that we should bring quarters for the pinball machines. There are 4 machines, but only one of them worked. That was really the only bummer. We would recommend this place to any groups wanting to spend time together!

I would skip this place
Well, this cabin is in a great location and has a ton of potential, the property has not been maintained and I would not recommend anyone make the same mistake that I did. When it rained this weekend, it also rained inside of our room and on top of some peoples belongings. In another room, the air conditioner also leaked and dripped all over a different person belonging. This property cleans to be able to handle more people than it really can and we had trouble getting everybody comfortable. It was dirty. Moldy. Not cleaned. Cobwebs. Rust. Beyond a typical, cabin in the woods. There was not even A frying pan that I could cook eggs in, and we had to go to HomeGoods to buy stuff to cook our food in. I would not say that I am bougie and I have camped in the woods and done a lot of things but this place is beyond bad compared to how it is advertised.

Core memories formed ❤️
Wow. I was traveling to SIU for a state science fair with my child and a few other other families. 10 of us total stayed in the house. The kids had THE best time on the zip line and canoes while the adults looked on from the spacious deck above. An evening at the fire pit plus a kids area in the basement made for a pleasant time. A true cabin like experience with none of the city slicker frills. It was perfect and the kids loved it. Thank you Tom!

The perfect cabin trip!
tl;dr: Amazing place, wonderful host. This is the perfect spot for a classic family lake vacation. You have all the water to yourself, and you can’t even see other houses. Feels very private and secluded but everything you need is close by. Tom is very responsive and thoughtful, he definitely knows how to set up a good time for the kids. Set up a fire for us and hid seashells for them There are lots of water/sand toys, floats, the zip line (even I rode it, it was A BLAST), pinball, foosball, pool table, and big tv. The cabin itself is lovely, not fussy, clean and comfortable, no knick knacks for my kids to break. The coop grocery nearby had lots of delicious treats to eat. The kids unanimously voted it was better than Florida, which is great cause it is about 15 hours less driving! Will definitely book again.

Great family getaway
We stayed here with 5 adults, 2 dogs and our twin babies (4 months) It was lovely! Despite rainy weather, we swam, barbecued and had a ball. As some of the other reviews mentioned, sand makes its way into the home after spending time down by the water - but in my mind, that’s a small price to pay for having a beach to play on. When we checked in it was clean, so any issue of sand was 100% on us and we were able to sweep it up easily. There is also a shower under the deck to rinse off, 3 sets of washer/dryers (!!!) and multiple large bathrooms to shower off in. We loved the zip line, pond, woodsy aesthetic of the home and enjoyed meeting Tom, the owner. We will be back for sure! - the Wilsons/Freeman’s
