Great staycation!

We are from the area and wanted to stay in a local cabin. The view with this cabin was unbeatable. I caught myself staring out of the window most of the time. It felt like I was in another state! Be mindful if you plan to cook all of your meals there, the kitchen is very small and some utensils may be lacking, but we had everything we needed. The hot tub was great (even in July). Planntobstay there again with my in-laws soon!

Beautiful property with amazing scenery! Limited space for indoor social activities & meals, but we were prepared for this, the description was accurate. Only problem we encountered was bugs in the downstairs bedroom - we were not bitten, just inconvenienced. Thanks for sharing your property with us!

We will be back!

This was a gem of a find! Kelly was an amazing host and gave us so much great information to help make our weekend. We hiked Giant City and Garden of the Gods, hit the wineries and breweries (go to Scratch in Ana!), hit up Boo Castle Park, and enjoyed lots of family/hot tub time at the cabin. The view is worth it alone. We will absolutely be back.

Great location and view!

Everything was great! If you’re going on the wine trail, this is the perfect place. It is right in the middle of the wineries, restaurants, and other activities. We’ve stayed here twice, once in each cabin and it was great both times. Both cabins have a great view of the hilly landscape.

Getaway in S Illinois

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon in January 2025. The power went out a couple of times but the host was very responsive and took care of it as fast as she could. The view was awesome and we enjoyed the hot tub. The 2 story living was nice and we used the kitchen to cook some traditional polish meals. We were able to go to Mass in Cobden just a few minutes away.

Just 2 friends wanting to visit. The place had wonderful views through the back windows or upper decks. Space was not wasted and everything we needed was provided. The place was clean and cutely decorated.
