About this property
Hilltop Retreat, a modernly-rustic getaway!
At the top of the Shawnee Wine Trail, amidst the Shawnee National Forest, and tucked away in the country, is your next comfortable get-away from home. Located off the scenic highway, South 127, our newly renovated house atop Hillbilly Hill Trail, has everything you and up to 9 others would need in a guest home. Relax at the fire-pit in the private back yard with an uninhibited view of the sky, pasture, and private lake. Just pack a bag of clothes, your favorite food and drink, and come on over!
