Summary: I make monthly work trips to the area and these have become my first choice for rentals. The properties are always immaculate and the beds are so comfortable. Every stay has been wonderful. While it’s only about 10 minutes away from town, it is very peaceful and quiet. Occasionally I’ve been able to watch the local wildlife from the front porch.

Luke C. Jun 27, 2025 09:09:17 AM

Summary: This place was amazing. Very secluded and the owners paid close attention to detail to really make this cabin beautiful and feel like a home. We loved our stay!

Victoria S. Jun 10, 2025 04:14:22 AM

Summary: The cabin was lovely, cozy, spotless, and in a gorgeous location! Hot tub was incredible, kitchen was well stocked for us to make meals, wide selection of books. First time my fiance and I have felt truly relaxed and rested in a while. Nearly completely private (one neighboring cabin was partially visible from back deck) yet only 10 minutes from Carbondale or 20minutes from cobden or Marion both of which have some hidden gems of restaurants Tons of beautiful hiking around the area, we hiked to 3 different waterfalls, all gorgeous. Will be back!

Summary: Loved this little cabin. I cannot believe that the owner had packed EVERYTHING you need into this relatively small cabin. There is a front porch, a rear deck, a beautiful washer and dryer, a VERY full array of kitchen utensils; super clean AND close to state parks, National Wildlife refuges and SouthernIllinois University. It is an ideal package
