    WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU BOOK

    A note for first-time cabin guests: this property has been beautifully remodeled but remains a cabin at heart. Bedrooms don't have closets, the washer/dryer is located in the kitchen, and the dining area is on an enclosed porch — all just as shown in the photos. If you're looking for a traditional home layout, this may not be the right fit. If you're looking for an authentic lakefront cabin experience, you're going to love it.

    Check-in is after 3 PM. Check-out is before 10 AM.

    A rental agreement is required with ID verification within 48 hours of booking or before entry, whichever is first.

    Pet Policy: $100/pet, per stay. 2 dogs max.

    Inventory: We provide a "starter package" of inventory for our cabin: 3 rolls of T.P. and 1 full roll of paper towels.

    BYO Life Vests HIGHLY encouraged to ensure proper size.

Beautiful place. Beds were very comfortable. View of the lake was perfect! Only problem was that the pictures were a bit deceiving. The rooms looked larger in the pictures. Otherwise we had a wonderful stay and will definitely come back next year!

Perfect little getaway

Our first impression was a bit rocky but the property manager jumped in and helped get everything straightened out right away. Such a beautiful lakefront home. Having the boat available to rent is a huge perk! Great sightseeing within 30 minutes of the house.

Long weekend near SIU

Nicest house in the area, nicely decorated and perfect for families. We lucked out with almost 90 degree weather so we grilled and swam. Great communication from start to finish. Great alternative to Marion or Carbondale. We’ll be back!

Comfortable and Wonderful Property

I found this cottage to be nothing short of pure comfort and delight. You are welcomed in a foyer stocked with beautiful dishes, wine glasses and a coffee bar. The kitchen was very well stocked. All 3 King size beds were very comfortable. You can enjoy the outdoors in the screened in area or the deck. I will definitely stay here again.

Updated and cozy lake house

The home has a clean, modern feel with farmhouse chic comfy. Lots of little touches throughout the home and plenty of space to spread out in bedrooms and living areas. The screened in porch leads to a large deck overlooking the lake. The dock is easily accessible with well maintained stairs. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Winter on the Lake

Very nicely decorated. Appreciated layout providing upstair bedrooms for adults with sleeping arrangements for teenagers on the lower level with their own bathroom, TV, & sofa. Wasn't able to enjoy the outdoors due to weather, but enjoyed great window views of the lake.

Perfect

We booked this location for a 70th birthday celebration. It was perfect for our needs- well appointed and spacious enough for 3 adult couples and a teen. We prepared two meals at the cottage and found the kitchen to be stocked with all the appliances, dishes and utensils we needed. The view of the lake was beautiful. It was especially hot the weekend we visited- all three generations were grateful for the exceptional air conditioning unit. We will definitely consider booking this property again when we return to the area.

Charming

Had a family wedding over Memorial Day so decided to rent a lake Egypt house for 4 days. Property is clean and updated. Property description was accurate. Bathrooms are small and shower pressure is a little low, but everything worked and beds were super comfortable. Every property on this lake is small windy road ln the last mile, and every property is a long stairway down to lake. No hesitation to stay here again. Any communication by me to rental company was responded to in like 10 mins or less. Rental Company is on the ball!

Great place to stay! Allison makes it easy stay worry free. Everything you need is provided. We made use of the charcoal grill and loved having a washer/dryer on property. The lake view and ease for fishing and boating were wonderful. Definitely would stay again!!

Our family of five had a fantastic time here this week, we thought our choices might be limited by looking for something pet friendly with enough space for three kids, but that was not the case. This cottage is exceptional, the host is communicative, and there’s something for everyone!

My family enjoyed our stay at Lakeshore Cottage. The location is great, access to the water is convenient, the house was well stocked with any amenity, cookware, or kitchen appliance. We did encounter a few small hiccups to which the host was responsive to our needs within minutes and solutions were provided within hours. We definitely would consider this place as our vacation destination again.

This is a definite repeat rental! We will 100% stay here again when in the area. It was meticulously clean and organized. The decor was darling and we had everything we needed for our 3 night rental. The house is much bigger on the inside than it appears on the outside and we had plenty of room. Our host was super responsive to questions and it made for a very easy stay. A top rental in our book!
