Amazing stay!

We had such an awesome stay at the Shawnee Apple Shack. It was so cute, clean, and had everything that we needed! There was plenty to do in the Southern Illinois area for the weekend. We definitely recommend staying there and would love to come back sometime!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We had a lovely relaxing trip. Our main focus was hiking but due to a heatwave we had to switch to early morning walks and more relaxing. It was cooler in the evening and the hot tub was the perfect place to star gaze. The screened in porch was great for breakfast. Space is limited for gourmet meals but simple meals are very doable. The listing does note the bed is in the loft and you have to climb to it. This is true, but I’m a mobile 50 year old and was able to do it easily. My only negative is not enough places to hang towels. There were 2 hooks in the bathroom and that worked but once you added swimsuits and beach towels and needing to hang the couple of dresses I brought not many places besides hanging over chairs. Was close to hiking, wineries, Paducah and Metropolis, all places we wanted to visit. Definitely will book again, when a little cooler and not so hot.
