Everything was just as hoped, and we had a wonderful stay at the White Oak cabin. Communication was fantastic, the cabin was clean and included everything we needed for comfort and to prepare meals. The hot tub was in perfect working order, the views were lovely and we were able to visit Giant City, Ferne Clyffe, Little Grand Canyon, Garden of the Gods and Rim Rock across 2.5 days. We would not hesitate to return!

Pleasant country getaway with stunning views.

We wanted to get out of the city for the weekend and this was a great spot for it. Nice views and very remote yet close enough to Carbondale that we didn’t feel like it was a big distance to hang out in town and pick up some grocery items. Had a great time kayaking on the on-site pond. Also very close to many nature trails including a 5-minute drive to Panther Den trailhead. Overall, I would definitely come back.

Restful and quiet

This was a great place to stay! The setting is perfect for a quiet getaway to enjoy the country and nature. I took advantage of the kayaks on the small lake, bird watched from the deck, napped in the hammocks, and went hiking nearby. It was an absolutely lovely and restful vacation.

Modern cabin, beautiful location

We had a great stay at the White Oak Cabin! The amenities were all up to date and the cabin was gorgeous! Our host Allison was quick to answer all of our questions. We are a family of four and also brought along our two dogs. They had provided a dog dish, placemat, and towel. Although it isn't a huge cabin, we were all perfectly comfortable. Having two older kids, we brought along an air mattress which wasn't needed because the cabin had one stowed under a bed, which we weren't expecting. It was a nice surprise! We had also brought along a bag of charcoal for the grill, but a partial bag was already there along with some lighter fluid. We used that and paid it forward by leaving ours there for the next people to use. We enjoyed the hammock and spent a lot of time out on the deck. The property is gorgeous! The only complaint we would have is that it would be nice if there was a mowed walkway all around the pond, not just the path to walk down to it. We have already recommended Southern Illinois Vacation Rentals to several friends and family. Thanks for a great stay!
