We are located minutes from LaSalle Lake State Fish and Wildlife Area, Marseilles State Fish and Wildlife Area, as well as many state parks - Illini, Starved Rock, Matthiessen, and Buffalo Rock State Parks. Our one of a kind log cabin is a comfortable and cozy getaway for romantics or solitude seekers. However, if you are looking for a home away from home large enough for a family reunion or a business retreat, we can accommodate you. Two queen-size beds with cozy quilts, 2 twin beds and a futon will sleep seven. The wood-burning stove and a fully-equipped kitchen with microwave are just some of the many amenities, not to mention the free coffee and popcorn. The cabin has air conditioning, central heating and is non-smoking inside.
Privacy and comfort are the key aspects to this unique property. There is no Wifi and cell phone reception is very limited but functional outside the cabin. The beauty and serenity of our log cabin with cathedral ceilings, wood stove and immense decking is unsurpassed. We offer a fully furnished kitchen, 2 twin beds in one room, queen beds in each of the remaining 2 bedrooms. The loft area has folding bed that can sleep one adult or child. The cabin is literally surrounded by wood decks and acres of trees. Don't get lost in the 25 acre back yard!

Old friends and I planned a camping weekend, however, with the weather looking bad found Shelby's place. It was a great place to catch up. It is spacious and clean and all-in-all very comfortable.
The cabin was wonderful it felt very cozy and comfortable. The bedrooms were all clean and spacious. The fire pit was great. The movie selection was excellent.

Thank You for the kind words. I am glad you enjoyed your stay
We really enjoyed our visit to the cabin. Close enough to Starved Rock to do a nice little day trip. Nice and private. Place was clean and well maintained.
Every year, we have a group of military guys that reconnect. This cabin has been where we have gathered for the past several years, and the property is amazing! It gives us plenty of room for fun around the fire pit, grilling int he driveway, or watching movies in the living room! We love this property!

Loved the woods and firepit. Communication with the owner was fantastic! Beds were wonderful! A great getaway. Decking was deteriorated and needed some attention which we notified the owner. Overall, a great stay!
Every year, we rent this property to have a place to stay to visit the Middle East Conflicts Memorial Wall in Marseilles. Great property, and fun times!
This was the perfect place for me to get away from the city and enjoy nature. The cabin itself is charming, spacious, and well kept. The owner was very responsive to my questions. And the wooded property is serene and full of wildlife. Exactly what I needed! Thank you!
