This cabin has everything you need and it is so comfy cozy. There is an amazing view and a smooth paved road makes it so easy to get to. We had a wonderful time - the kitchen has everything, the beds are comfy and the fireplace is so nice. We definitely will be coming back again!

If you like being in the country but close to town and things to do this is the place. We stayed in cabin 1 for a few nights while in town for a swim meet. The rooms/beds were cozy. The view was beautiful. It was great being able to relax with friends, a glass of wine and snacks after a long day at the pool. We were within a 5-10 min drive to the campus. There are also a ton of wineries to choose from as well, nearby. And a few hiking/walking paths nearby. The property is situated on a private road with a pond. It looks like you can swim in warmer months, as there is a dock. They also had kayaks and a fire pit, which we did not have the time to use. Would stay here again.

The cabin was very cozy and nice! It has a balcony that overlooks a pond on the main level, and a walk-out basement with a patio by the pond. It was perfect for our sisters' getaway wine tasting trip!! It was also very clean!!!

Perfect getaway. Close enough to civilization, nature, and wine, yet far enough to forget it all.
Description and photos are on point. Indian Creek Cabins are perfect for families, couples, friends or all of the above. Cabin 1 is perfect for a larger group with space upstairs and downstairs to relax. Kitchen seemed to have everything except a wine opener. Fish were jumping in the pond, was so bummed I did not bring my pole. Wasps are a concern as they appear to burrow under railing and decking.
Janet was fabulous and I feel horrible for saying this, but the check in wait was a little ridiculous. I communicated with her the day before stating I'd be there close to 3. Called when I was about 15 minutes away as she asked and was told she'd be there in a few minutes. We were the 1st one's onsite, yet last ones checked in about an hour and half after being told it would be a few minutes.
I will definitely return to the area and hope to stay at the cabins with my family.
FYI parking for cabin 1 is in front of the office.

The property was private and quiet which is just what we wanted. Plenty of space for just us or if we invited another couple in the future. The deck, porch and firepit overlooking the water was serene. Perfect spot for our weekend away.

2 Adult Couples
My husband and I were looking to do hiking with friends and this was the perfect accommodations. We each had private bedrooms and bathrooms and the kitchen was just large enough to cook in. The grounds and cabin were kept clean and was very peaceful. Janet was helpful and kind during check in. The cabin is located close to Carbondale if you want to drive 5-10 minutes to a store or restaurant. I would recommend this to a small family or 2 adult couples. Great weekend get-a-way!

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin on the pond. It was larger than we had expected, not realizing there’s an entire lower level family room along with a bedroom and full bath. We spent our evenings on the upper balcony by the pond and watched the sun set. We did a lot of touring of southern Illinois and went into Wisconsin to visit the town of Saint Genevieve. We had time to visit 3 wineries and one brewery. The cabin was adorable, super clean, and Janet made check-in and check-out a breeze. If there was ANY downside at all it would be that the couch upstairs in the living room needs to be replaced. Felt like we were going to fall through - not very comfortable. BUT!! The shower was fabulous, bed was comfy and balcony was welcoming and peaceful. We had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to go back in the future.

I’ve stayed on the property twice and had a great experience each time. Not only are the cabins so nice they have plenty of activities on the property. Close enough to town that pizza delivers! Also great location for wineries and trails.

Not our first time staying here. Love it every time. It's so close to town, but enough out of the way that you feel like you're in the woods.

Home away from home.
I enjoyed my stay very much. The beds were comfortable and the cabin very clean with excellent accommodations. I loved the decor and the kitchen was very nice. We were able to prepare all meals easily and the table seated us nicely. The exterior setting was serene and peaceful. Plus, it was very convenient with nearby shopping and Carbondale.
My brother wanted to fish for the catching, but understood the wishes of the property owner. Yet, it would have been an added plus.
I will definitely stay again.
