Ist off, host was very gracious about the experience we had. Upon arrival went to unlock door and couldn't get it open. Called host and he said I'm so sorry the lock has been changed. at this point he told me that the fireplace would not work because they were out of propane. He offered me a discount because that was one of the features that led me to book this cabin. Upon entry to the cabin we found that it had not been cleaned. I called host and he said he was sorry and moved us to another cabin. The cabin was nice but the furniture in the living room was hard for my wife to get out of as the couch and chair set very low to the floor. It advertised a satellite but the only channels we could access was the 3 major networks and some shopping channels. The sliding screen door that goes out to patio the screen was torn and needed repair. The other thing was when you see the cabin on line it gives you the impression it is one cabin but actually is two cabins in one building. As I stated earlier host was very apologetic about issues I brought up but accomodations fell below my expectations.

Love this location as this is second time I’ve stayed here. Disappointed only saw deer one day last time every day. Not the fancy but nice and comfortable. Will be back next trip to SIU and area

We wanted someplace close to SIU while we visited our daughter, but it was also close to great hiking at Giant City and other little towns with lots to do.

Property was clean and well stocked. Even though it is a cabin, it’s right off a main road. It’s very accessible. Quiet at night! Easy to shop in Carbondale. Great location for the wine trail. Highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed here while visiting our oldest at SIU for family weekend. It was a great cabin. Within 10 minutes of SIU campus. Quiet area. Had everything we needed for the weekend.

We enjoyed our stay in the cabin! Thank you for being pet friendly, so that our anxiety-filled dog could come with us on this trip. The only thing I didn't realize from the listing is that it's a duplex. Everything was clean, the bed was comfy, and the welcome basket was a very nice touch. Thank you!

Peaceful, well kept, clean, close to all activities, wineries, orchards, giant city Lodge, hiking trails. Very warm and welcoming I will be back. Larry my host was awesome. Everything you will ever need but your food, even had a welcome basket in the house. My cabin was number 5 a 1 bedroom cabin, very roomy. Thanks for making my stay magical and restful.
