We had a wonderful stay! The water pressure was good in the shower, plenty of hot water. The AC worked great and kept us cool with hot 90 temps. The smart TV with movies gave us entertainment during the heat of the afternoon. The view from the deck was nice. We enjoyed relaxing at this VRBO.
Peaceful views of the water and wildlife.

Cabin was very cozy. Loved the rustic charm and beautiful view of the lake from the living room or the deck. Quick, easy access to town to get provisions, shop and eat out. Quick response from owner to general questions. Highly recommend and plan to return next year!

Short getaway

It was a great stay, not too far from home. Enjoyed sitting out on deck in shade. Short family getaway. Went night fishing because of the heat. Great sights to see, Asian carp jumping, gar rolling on the water, starry nights. Relaxing and family time was our main focus. Host was Great!

Pheasant Hunt

Came up North to pheasant hunt with my friend and my son, along with a pack of bird dogs. The cabin was perfect. Great location, beautiful view, and just the right size. We take this trip every year, and will most definitely stay here again.

Relaxing short stay

Enjoyed my short stay at the cabin. The Roku TV was great to watch movies on. I almost fell asleep on the couch because it was so comfortable! A very relaxing stay, I am looking forward to going back!

Satisfied Goose Chaser

I visited to seek out the migratory birds in the area along the river and at the local wildlife refuges. This place was the perfect location! On top of that, the bed was comfy, the kitchen had everything I needed (even though I kept bumping my head on the hanging pots and pans - my fault), and the view out towards the river was incredible. Will definitely be staying here again the next time I make a trip to the area!

Short getaway

We chose this location because of the wildlife refuges in the area. I am an amateur photographer and heard about the snow geese migration at Emiquon National Wildlife Refuge and wanted to photograph it. The weather wasn’t real cooperative, but it was a great trip in spite of the cold and windy conditions. The cabin fit our needs perfectly. Would definitely stay again.

A get away on the water

A get away on the water.. house was nice but smelled very moldy on first entering. A/C worked well. The top floor bedrooms were too hot to use. The bedspread was stained on one. The house was stocked with everything we needed to cook. 2 out of 3 of us slipped on the broken steps to the lake. I contacted Poison and am still miserable with it. That’s the worst part. I think for the price the outside could be kept better. No poison for sure. We enjoyed our stay. But at 145 a night it’s too much . The weeds block the view from the top and second patio. A beautiful storm blew in but the windows don’t open to enjoy the wind. Rustic does not have to mean unkept. The supplies were nice in case we forgot something. Thank you
