The cottage was absolutely beautiful and very cozy!! Check in was at 4:00 and a breeze to get in. It was clean and the hot tub was a great bonus!! We loved our stay. We toured the Cross of Peace around the corner from us, enjoyed the Alto winery and Orchards. Lots to do in a small town. We rode our bicycles one evening and loved looking at the countryside. Great little getaway for us. Thanks for being great hosts.

Nice Stay!

Nice getaway with the grands. We also brought our pup which was accommodated without issue. Close to walking trails and KinKaid Lake. Had a very nice few days of hiking, boating, and hanging in the hot tub. Would definitely stay here again and certainly recommend!

We stayed here previously but it was under different ownership. The new owners have done a great job of making it really comfortable. It was a perfect spot for us to visit family and have our own space close by.

Spring Getaway

We stayed 4 days with our pup who enjoyed the fenced in yard! Despite the rainy weather for half of our trip we were comfortable in the house. It had everything we needed to cook and relax. Utlized the hot tub a few days as well as hiked neary Giant City and Ferne Cliff.

Spring break Southern Illinois

Fantastic little cabin, perfect location for wineries and outdoor activities. If you've never been to the area you are missing out. Everything is exactly as described and our stay was excellent. It was great to find a pet friendly location, the fenced in back yard is an amazing feature for dog owners. We will definitely come back.

Relaxing, clean, great location

The property was as described and clean! There are a few extras that were wonderful, coffee, sugar, and bug spray! It is located near wineries and hiking. Hot tub was great after long hikes. We did not realize it was pet friendly which caused our allergies to act up but that was our fault for not reading closely.

Great Getaway

Absolutely a wonderful place to get away from the big city. We needed to unwind and just relax. This was the perfect place. The cabin was great with everything we wanted and needed. Hot tub was a highlight. Quiet, peaceful and serene setting. Spring was in full bloom here. Exceptional views abound on the property and the surrounding areas.
