Cute cabin

We had a great stay at the cabin! We didn't get their until late on a Fri, but Brian let us stay as late we we wanted to checkout on Sunday which was great. The hot tub water had just been changed, so the was only 56 degrees when we got there. However, he gave us a reimbursement for the inconvenience and were able to get in late the following day. The water pressure was only a trickle, and 1 shower never got warm. Otherwise the cabin had mostly everything we needed. Would be good to have a little help me book though with wifi information and other stuff about the cabin.

Amazing cabin in middle of wine country

This cabin is located so close to all the wineries in the wine trail. We had easy access to Alto Pass, Star view, Owl Creek, and so many more! The hot tub was a great way to unwind at the end of the day. And the owner was very great about communicating and following up. Would 500% recommend this place to anyone looking to take in the Shawnee state parks or South Illinois wine trail.

Get away from it all.

This is a really cool property that is very comfortable/cozy and and away from the hustle and bustle. It really does feel like you are in a tree house and connected with nature. The deck and screened in porch are great. It was really nice for that morning cup of coffee. I refinements would take the property over the top. The water pressure/flow is very poor. It was even hard to wash a dish. The fridge was not cold. I had to use the freezer as the fridge If you don’t min being disconnected ,this is great as cell service-WiFi is as advertised…very slow. Connection for stream is not possible.

Wine Trail Get Away

Good get away to visit the wine trail. Close to many wineries but far enough away to feel away from others. The cabin was basic, but nice. It was what we were looking for because we didn’t want to stay long. Water pressure was good (many reviews complained about water pressure, but it was fixed before our visit). There were actually two bathrooms with two standup showers.

Quiet retreat

The property was very clean and located in a wuiet surrounding. Beautiful back drop behind the cabin. Sleeping arrangements were comfortable. It was centrally located to a lake, trails, bourbon bar and wineries. The property manager was friendly and made great suggestions for the activities we were wanting to do.

Beautiful Area

I loved being away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The home is cozy but the water pressure for showers was almost non existent. It would be nice to have better internet for rainy days. But overall nice stay and beautiful home and outdoor space.

A very pretty area

This is a beautiful piece of property with a very basic cabin. The owner was attentive and checked in on us. Overall our stay was nice and comfortable. The bed was comfortable which is a big plus. We enjoyed our time here. The only complaint I would have is a lack of water pressure. The cabin could use a water pressure tank. That would have made a huge difference. All in all, a pretty nice VRBO property.

Fun Family Getaway

We loved staying at the cabin on the creek! The creek itself provided tons of entertainment for our almost 3-year-old. Lots of hiking and outdoor entertainment nearby. The host was a fantastic communicator leading up to and on the trip dates. The outdoor spaces at the property are nice little escapes from the city! Great stay, would recommend!
