About the host

Host profile image
Hi! We’re Kris and Matt, the owners of Red Roof Retreats here at Lake of Egypt in Southern Illinois.

What started as one little cabin turned into a collection of unique stays designed for people who love the outdoors, lake life, and simple moments together. We live nearby and are very hands-on with our properties, always looking for ways to make each stay comfortable, clean, and welcoming.

We believe in morning coffee on the deck, stargazing by the firepit, wildlife sightings, and slowing down long enough to actually enjoy where you are.

Whether you’re here to hike Shawnee National Forest, paddle the lake, visit local wineries, or just unplug for a few days, we’re happy you chose to stay with us.

We’re available by call or text if you need anything — but we also respect your space and want you to feel at home.

Welcome to the lake 🤍

— Kris & Matt

Why they chose this property

This was a little shed that was on the property when we bought it in 2008. We finished the inside and stayed in in while we built our log cabin next door. Since then, many of our friends come to visit and love to stay in the Little Moon cabin on Lake of Egypt because it is similar to camping with all of the benefits of a tiny home. Open the windows and you feel like you are laying in a tent... only you are laying in a fluffy lofted bed! When we decided to rent this one also, we changed the inside to suit all types of guests and their needs.

What makes this property unique

Outdoor (private) shower that is so great to jump into after a day on the lake. It's especially fun when it's raining outside and it's always warm! Morning coffee will turn to afternoon lunch and evening cocktails on the deck facing the lake. You will see birds, wildlife, fish and turtles in the lake and all sorts of lake activity if you sit long enough. The Lake of Egypt night sky is beautiful and you will have a hard time tearing yourself away to go inside and sleep!
