We absolutely loved this place! Quiet and secluded yet close to everything we came to Mattoon for. Only a quick 10 minute drive to town and the Emerald Acres sports complex. One of the best VRBOs we have stayed in for quite some time. Looking forward to going back if we are playing in Mattoon next year!

Peaceful, immaculate, beautifully decorated, comfortable, and a delightful kitty cat visited but did not intrude on a visitor with allergies, he seemed to sense who to avoid. The quiet was just what we needed and we plan to return for a longer stay. The hosts were top notch. Zero complaints at all!
