Fantastic 1-bedroom Cabin in peaceful Makanda, Pet-Friendly!

Fantastic 1-bedroom Cabin in peaceful Makanda, Pet-Friendly!

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was as described with the convenience of being fully furnished from the expected linens to the unexpected, but appreciated….spices, coffee, creamer, and accuracy of being dog friendly!!!! More than just allowing pets, beds, cots, food dishes, leash, etc. It served as a far better option than a hotel centrally located to all we wanted to do!"
