"We loved this cute, cozy, comfy cabin. Just the right size for a couple - not too big, but not too small either. Very quiet location, wi-fi worked great, comfy bed, water temperature/pressure for the shower was perfect. The entire cabin was very clean. Loved the Americana decor and the small basket of snacks added a nice touch. Looking forward to staying again sometime."

"I received immediate feedback from the host with all the necessary information. Mr. Young also made it clear he would be available to provide additional assistance if needed. And he was! We were all impressed with the cleanliness of the property and the nice little extra touches like a very well stocked snack basket and excellent coffee. The location is ideal. It is off the beaten track, but with easy access to many choice locations in Southern Illinois. With several cabins close by, it would...

Couple's Retreat with HOT TUB
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (66)
"Great, quaint cabin, that is well maintained and tastefully appointed. Setting on the covered porch looking out over the trees and pasture made me feel like I was 1000 miles from anywhere. The hobby farm next door was really cool. There were all kinds of animals on the property, many roaming free. I even saw a skulk of foxes as I pulled into the property. A quick 8 minute drive and you were in Carbondale. Very cool."

"Loved our stay at the Loft! Was so easy to travel the wine trail. The Loft itself was perfect for us. We were looking for a weekend of R & R, this was the perfect spot! Hot tub was a perfect spot to relax before hitting the wine trail and then a perfect spot to relax after a busy day to relax with a nice bottle from the wine trail. We will definitely be back!"

"We came down to visit friends and the cabins were great to come back to each night . The cabins are close to town but far enough away . I enjoyed a peaceful sit on the deck and a nice walk . The management responds quickly to any question and it was really easy to check in and out. I will say if you are shorter person like myself bring a stool the bed is kinda high."

"The room was nice and clean, we had no complaints. The a/c worked well. The bed was comfy enough. The pool was closed however which was weird we weren't alerted about before since it was summer time, but I guess there was no way for them to tell us. There was an attached but independent bar, it was pretty cool you could enter it from the hotel so that was pretty cool. It's close to a lot of local places if you want to go get some food or delivery."
