We were looking for a quiet place to relax between our adventures around southern IL. This cabin was perfect. It was clean, had anything we needed (except wi-fi), the front porch, back porch and surroundings provided a peaceful place to enjoy the outdoors. We would recommend this to others or even go back again ourselves.

This cabin was perfect. Very clean and very secluded. No wifi, and no cell service for mint mobile. It was peaceful and relaxing. The cabin was extremely well stocked, and the owner was so great and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
