Winetrail Cabin - SIU, Giant City SP, Shawnee Forest, & Cedar Lake minutes away!
Cabin located in the heart of the Shawnee National Forest. Only 2.5 miles from hiking in Giant City State Park, 5 minutes to the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail, minutes from SIU, and Cedar Lake.
This is the perfect base for hiking, visiting wineries, and enjoying other activities in beautiful Southern IL.
Host was very welcoming and kind. All amenities included covered everything anyone would need. The cabin was spacious, clean and welcoming. Our little dog loved it too.
This is a very basic place. The negatives were that the couch had a terrible smell, something sprayed on it, so we couldn't sit on it. There wasn't a bedside table for my side of the bed. The bed made a LOUD screechy sound every time you turned over. There were NO HANGERS in the place except children's. I had a conference to go to, and couldn't hang up my clothes. The apartment needed airing when we got there. Had a close musty smell. The bathroom was TINY and had no plastic shower curtain, so the floor needed to be mopped after showering. The quality of the toilet paper was terrible. However, everything worked and the kitchen was very workable and there was a nice outdoor porch.
Wonderful cabin in So IL, close to everything, yet quiet and cozy. Well appointed kitchen with everything needed! Clean and spacious! Look forward to visiting this one again!
The cabin was perfect for our 5 nights in the area. There was plenty of room and everything we needed. The pictures online were nice but in real life, it was a real gem. Can't wait to visit again.
This was easy to find, feeling of a home with everything we needed. From charging ports to every kitchen utensil and appliance, we saved so much on eating out and cooked as if we were home. Plenty of linens and towels, we didnât need anything additional.
Me and my buddy chose these cabins for our annual Southern Illinois hike trip and we were delighted with our stay. Our cabin offered a convenient location and plenty of amenities. Would definitely book again if we were in the area!
The cabin is nice and in a great location. It needs a good cleaning/paint touch up and some stained towels replaced. The satellite tv did not work but there were free channels to watch. We appreciated the snacks the host provided.
The property both inside & out are so comfortable. The pictures do not do it justice. Steve was more than great! Our pup chewed the remote to the tv & he was so understanding. Weâre just sending him a replacement. No stress or chaos about it. Super place & owner!
The cabin was clean comfortable and a quiet place to relax between excursions to Giant City State Park, Giant City Stables, and Ferne Clyffe State Park. The cabin was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We appreciated that the people in the other cabins were friendly and respectful. If we ever travel to southern Illinois again, this is definitely where we will stay.
