About this property
Hot tub, Secluded & Quiet, Games & Huge Fire-Pit
Nestled in the woods on 2 private acres just 10 minutes South of Bloomington, IL. Enjoy seclusion & convenience all in one. Rejuvenate in the hot tub, have a beverage under the stars, read a book out in the hammock, roast smores over the fire-pit, explore the local parks or just relax and watch the trees sway in the breeze. End the day with dinner on the Napoleon grill or a quick trip to the local diner. Either way you will leave relaxed and rejuvenate at Hidden Grove. Just 4 minutes to Hesed House and less than 30 minutes to Clinton Lake, 20 minutes to ISU, 17 minutes to Wesleyan/Carle Bromenn and all the other restaurant and entertainment options that Bloomington/Normal has to offer.
Owner managed with care and detail, this A-frame home offers three seating areas, a fully stocked kitchen with full size appliances including a dishwasher, two sleeping areas upstairs one being a loft area with queen size bed that is open to the level below plus a private bedroom featuring a queen bed, twin bed and a fun lofted play area we call "the cozy cave" perfectly sized for little adventurers. The cozy cave is a great place for the kids to enjoy while the adults get some quiet time. One full bath located on the main level plus a queen sleeper sofa. This sleeper isn't your grandmas sleeper sofa, you will get a sound nights sleep on this updated version with no metal brackets and an easy flip out design. Outside there is a deck with a dining table that seats four, lounge seating for 8 with a light and enjoy propane fire-table, and a large traditional fire pit with logs provided for a more woodsy experience.

The entire home and property is yours to explore. Please note that the woods behind and to the side of the property are not part of our parcel and are off limits. There is a private driveway down the deck side of our parcel with very little traffic but you may see a car here and there.
We do not reside on property but are not far away should there be an emergency. Feel free to reach out at any time with questions or concerns.
Our cabin is a short drive outside of Bloomington a few miles into the country. The last mile is a beautiful secluded tree lined road with a few neighboring houses. Once you turn at our well marked mailbox (look for the A-frame sign on the post with the white mailbox) you will meander through the woods for a short bit before you come up the lane to the A frame style cabin.
You will need a car for transportation. There is room to park 6 cars comfortably on this large property.
This cabin is beautifully remodeled from a historic property built originally in 1969. Therefore there are some creaky floors on the second level and the HVAC is less traditional than a typical newer construction. However, it stays quite comfortable during any type of weather. There is also a somewhat steep lane coming in to the property. Should there be snow or ice this short area may be difficult to navigate in a rear wheel drive car. We will plow and ice melt but we do not control mother nature. However, we don't live far away and in the case of severe weather will be at your service to assist as needed. :-)
Items to note: There is a security camera on-site located on the light pole near the shed. This camera views the driveway, front of the home, parking area, parts of the yard and the outdoor area including the hot tub. This device is solely for security purposes and is not monitored, do not rely on it for personal safety. This home is equipped with devices that monitor the environment inside and outside the property (including noise levels, temperature, smoke air quality) to ensure guests have a pleasant stay and our neighbors are not disturbed. This does not record sound as our guests privacy is key. Tampering with any security device will unfortunately be cause for immediate cancellation with no refund.

About the host
Hosted by Kimberly Nave

My husband Travis and I are both contractors and do it yourself type of people. We love creating as we work and taking the blah to OMG. Our travel style is unique. We love experiencing new things and adventuring but don't enjoy the elbow bumping of high density places. So we create spaces that we would want to be ourselves. A place that we can connect with family and friends, rejuvenate from busy schedules and have ALL of the fun :-) We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
The A-frame just had a special vibe about it from the moment we pulled up. The drive back into the woods and then the serene quiet that enveloped us as we arrived made the decision easy. The unique structure and the adorable updates were just the icing on top! Guests have even used the word "magic" to describe the property.
