We will be back!
This was a gem of a find! Kelly was an amazing host and gave us so much great information to help make our weekend. We hiked Giant City and Garden of the Gods, hit the wineries and breweries (go to Scratch in Ana!), hit up Boo Castle Park, and enjoyed lots of family/hot tub time at the cabin. The view is worth it alone. We will absolutely be back.

Getaway in S Illinois
My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon in January 2025. The power went out a couple of times but the host was very responsive and took care of it as fast as she could. The view was awesome and we enjoyed the hot tub. The 2 story living was nice and we used the kitchen to cook some traditional polish meals. We were able to go to Mass in Cobden just a few minutes away.

Relaxing birthday getaway
The cabin was exactly as described and more. The pictures do no justice to the views there. The owner even brought a brand new card table and chairs to the cabin after my mother was chatting with her. The cabin is close to a ton of excellent trails, wineries, and activities. If you have a little, there is a fantastic new playground in Anna where you’ll need to go for gas/full grocery store

Amazing Cabin
The cabin was very clean, well equipped and the views were amazing. If we ever go back wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
Beautiful retreat for our anniversary. Quiet and away but still choose enough to wineries and shopping. A must stay!
