Corey N. Jun 14, 2025 08:27:01 AM
Summary: A very simple cabin in a great spot for those heading to Cedar Lake, or other area lakes, hikes, or adventures. Though the cabin is a bit dated, and worn from years of travelers passing through, it functioned perfectly for me on my short stay.
kory a. Jun 6, 2025 07:11:36 AM
Summary: The cabin was exactly as advertised. The host answered all the questions I had and helped find some local spots. Lots of little perks in the cabin like good coffee and a bag of popcorn. It was a quiet, secluded spot to relax.
Stephenie K. May 14, 2025 09:07:30 PM

Tracey K. Apr 22, 2024 09:49:28 PM
Summary: I really enjoyed my stay. I came to spend some time with my daughter who goes to SIU. It was nice, quiet, and had the great charm. It is a cabin so it is rustic but that was the charm of the cabin. The bed was great, we were able to cook and relax like the comforts of home. The wifi had an issue and needed to be reset and the host was very prompt on fixing the issue. He was available! I will definitely stay here again when I visit my daughter!

Summary: Had a great couple nights. Saw the eclipse, ate some great food. It's really dark there at night though, could use a bit more light.
Wendy A. Mar 16, 2024 11:42:30 PM
Summary: This cabin was the perfect home base for my son and me during his college Spring Break/our hiking trip to the Shawnee forest. During our stay, we enjoyed hiking and exploring the Panther’s Den, Ferne Clyffe State Park (especially Bork Falls), Giant City State Park, the Pomona Natural Bridge, the Little Grand Canyon, as well as kayaking with Cache Bayou Outfitters and visiting Blue Sky’s Vineyard. The cabin had everything we needed and lots of extra thoughtful touches too. It's in a nice surrounding, located next to a golf course, which is lovely. Steve was wonderful to work with. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Loved the cleanliness and privacy of the cabin. Added bonus was the basket of snacks left by the property manager!
