Acerca del anfitrión
Anfitrión: Ellie Tanner
First of all, I would say that I am a totally imperfect, but born again believer in Jesus & have been blessed in this life far more than I ever deserved. I’m a proud Momma of four, MeeMaw to one, big sister, & Daddy’s girl. Family is incredibly important to me & they are the very beat of my heart. I’m also a Mommy to Piper, my English Bulldog (the official mascot of SBC). She’s adorable & quite a character to be sure.
I grew up on the farm that sits directly across the road & anyone who knows me well would say I’m a country girl through & through. I drive a pickup truck, ride a Harley & have a sports-car… or two. I enjoy most outdoor activities but my favorites are riding horses, hiking, gardening, & photography. Indoors, I enjoy playing basketball, scrapbooking, playing piano, reading classical literature (& anything by Max Lucado or Lee Child), as well as, various types of “crafting” (especially making old time pin & sequin Christmas ornaments). Travel is another hobby that makes me happy. I am grateful for the opportunity to participate in different cultures, meet amazing people & be allowed to share incredible experiences with them. Alaska is my favorite state to visit domestically (especially if there’s dog sledding involved!), & Italy (specifically the Sorrento/Capri area) is my favorite European place to sneak off to… at least so far. I hold a master’s degree in nursing & retired from labor & delivery a few years ago. I did, however, keep my IBCLC credentials active & I still, on occasion, do some consulting work with new mommies & babies that are having issues with lactation. I continue to work at our family business, Tanner CPA Firm & am absolutely the busiest “retired” person I know.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad
I grew up here & still reside on my family’s farm nearby. I know this location to be very peaceful & just being here brings about a sense of calm. The front yard stays shaded most of the day & the covered front porch is the perfect place to grab a good book & spend a leisurely afternoon rocking in the fresh air. The swing set & merry-go-round in side yard are the very ones I myself played on as a child. ;) There is a small pond & a large variety of fragrant flowers growing spring through fall. You can find many vibrant, albeit oddly shaped, wild mushrooms in the woods. (While they are pretty to look at, they are completely inedible!). The old barn is currently enjoying a face lift of its own, but still a pleasant sight. It will soon offer guests the opportunity to feed, pet & interact with small farm animals - should they desire. Summer vegetables are grown in the back yard garden & is open seasonally for guests to enjoy. Those veggies are especially delicious when grilled on the back deck.
While returning the cottage fully to days when it was newly constructed is impractical, the skill & craftsmanship used in creating this space 115 years ago remains apparent. The detail found the woodwork is stunning & understanding that it was all completed by hand, without the aid of modern tools & lasers, is
impressive indeed. Most of the furnishings are antique, but far from fragile, & were chosen with comfort in mind.
Sandbank Cottage was opened to provide guests a retreat from the craziness & fast pace of everyday, normal life. There simply is no better place to relax & just breathe.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad
If an escape to the country for
some privacy & tranquillity is what
you are looking for, this is the
place! Sitting on 15 acres, there's
plenty of space to explore. While
the property is definitely in a rural setting, it is centrally located among many of the wonderful things Southern Illinois has to offer. The Shawnee Forest, SIU-C, Shawnee Wine Trail, Tunnel Hill Bike Trail, Lake of Egypt, Crab Orchard Lake, many state parks & a plethora of wedding venues, antique & unique stores, & golf courses, are all only a short drive away.
There's a variety of wildlife in this area & during your stay you will be able to see white-tail deer,
squirrels, rabbits, & maybe even
fox or a wild turkey or two. You
can hear all the sounds nature has
to offer: crickets chirping, birds
singing, bullfrogs bellering & barn owls hooting. The sunrises & sunsets are beautiful & the stars take on a glory all their own at night.
The decor is reminiscent of the style poplar at the turn of the century. Although there have been upgrades made to the kitchen, along with the installation of a rain shower & HVAC system, much of the house remains as it did over 100 years ago. The wood floors, staircase, wood trim, fireplace, columns, front door... all are original to the home. Coming for a visit allows you to enjoy modern amenities, while taking a step back in time.
