Yearly fishing trip
This is the third year in a row that we have stayed with Brad. The place just gets better every year. Always clean, perfect location, and you can't beat Brad as a host.

Cozy Cabin with a Great Lake View
Thoroughly enjoyed our winter stay in this cozy lakeview cabin! Queen bed in master was comfortable and the couch and great closet space were bonuses! The gas fireplace downstairs kept us toasty and added a great ambiance to the lightly falling snow outside. The electric fireplace on the covered porch was great too! The kitchen was well-equipped for making several meals and the washer and dryer were handy as well. Enjoyed watching the sun come up over the lake in the mornings. Several great restaurants and shopping within 15-20 minutes (we liked Thai-D, Bennie’s, The Vault, and Crown Brew Coffee).

Great place to stay.
Nice place on the water. Especially if you have a boat. The covered dock was a plus to be able to park my boat and just jump on and go. Also decent privacy from neighbors which is a plus.

Newly renovated lake home with direct access to the water
We had so much fun renting this beautiful lake home with our family. The home is newly renovated and very clean. It has a large deck with lakeside access and a covered dock. We were able to rent a boat locally for our family to fish, swim and tube. The owners are very helpful, responsive and kind. Great place!!

Tranquility by the lake
This lake house is a hidden gem that is just perfect in so many ways. Both bedrooms have comfortable mattresses, pillows and comfy blankets. They both have AC units and ceiling fans to keep you comfortable while you sleep. The main living area is down a flight of stairs. The furniture is lovely and very comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with the essentials. The internet is strong, which my teenager appreciated. The deck in the back is stunning and overlooks the lake. We enjoyed our coffee in the morning outside and dinners made on the gas grill. We watched the deer right off the deck at sunset. This is a great place to stay when visiting your student at SIU. It's about a 30 min drive to campus and makes you feel like you are on vacation. The owner was very easy to communicate with and was extremely friendly and accommodating. We loved our stay.
