We wanted to visit this area of IL for our 36th anniversary. The cottage is in such a beautiful location, very scenic views that we loved waking up to in the mornings. Everything was clean and cozy and comfortable, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for such a spot. It was a very nice place to come back to after a day at Giant City State Park, and finding various area restaurants with great BBQ.

Our hosts communicated with us before our visit and provided great information and reviews about area activities and restaurants in the cabin when we arrived. The cabin was nicely decorated, clean, and included everything we needed in the kitchen. The porch provided a peaceful place to sit and watch the wildlife and sunsets. We look forward to returning again!

This property is located close to plenty of antique shops and two beautiful state parks as well, yet secluded from any traffic after a day of adventuring. A super clean and comfortable place with modern amenities and charmingly decorated. While relaxing on the front porch, we saw deer, turkey, bluebirds, and even a fox. It was a great place to wind down for a few days. Denise made sure we had everything we needed.
Breakfast spot perfect for wildlife and bluebird viewing on the front porch.
Open field beyond fence where deer gather in the mornings and evenings.
Living room with two recliners, sleeper sofa, cozy fireplace, and ROKU-equipped tv.

We had a wonderful time on Crews Mountain during our visit to the Shawnee National Forest! The cabin has a great location in near the center of the park and is better than shown in the photos. It is an accessory dwelling on a well-landscaped property that has an in ground pool and a lake with swimming dock. The cabin was fully stocked with everything we needed. We saw lots of wild life, such as a fox, turkeys, geese, toads, and a hawk. We had a lovely visit and would certainly visit again!
