Perfect Cabin
We booked this cabin for an anniversary weekend getaway. Everything about the cabin was perfect! We enjoyed the trail behind the canin. We also enjoyed hiking at nearby, Giant City State Park. Southern Illinois is beautiful in the fall. We hope to be back and highly recommend to others.

Perfect Cozy Cabin
This cabin was pristine, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. It had everything you would need for an enjoyable getaway including a fire pit, salt spa, and a great assortment of books and games. It’s close enough to trails and outdoor activities to keep your days full and there are some great dining options within 15-25 minutes away.

Fantastic
Love this place. Cozy cabin in the woods with amazing hot tub on the back deck overlooking the woods. The stars are so bright from the back deck. 10-15 minutes from all the wineries. Will be back again.

Beautiful and relaxing cabin with all the comforts of home!
We recently took a trip to Southern Illinois and stayed in the “Elm cabin”. The cabin is deceiving from the outside as the interior is VERY nice and provides all the comforts of home and more. It seemed far more spacious than what we expected. The large front porch and back deck with hot tub provide some great outdoor time enjoying the beautiful wooded area surrounding. You also have an outdoor fire pit with LOTS of wood available for campfires, roasting marshmallows, etc. We would not hesitate to come back and stay here again. It was truly an enjoyable time!

Our dog loved Elm cabin!
This place is SO CUTE! Inside was refreshing, clean, homey and really just right. My husband & I stayed here with our dog, and they took their morning walk through the trail behind all the cabins. The salt water hot tub after a day of hiking is soooo delightful. It was nice to have spices already stocked, and there was even a dog bowl for our girl. Sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee and my dog? 12/10
