Luxurious 2 Bdrm Deckhouse Retreat, Nature Lovers Paradise

Cozy new construction on your own creek, like glamping but with all the amenities! Minutes from wine trails, Giant City State Park, lakes and SIU! Open floor plan, gourmet kitchen, top of the line appliances, spa like bathroom, designer lighting. Oversized covered deck adds additional living and chilling space. Bedrooms include adjustable beds and dimmable touch lamps with charging stations. You may just want to stay on the property and chill! Check out the photos to see more! Read our reviews! So close to everything but so removed from the hustle and bustle! FYI, we have an exterior camera that monitors the driveway and steps leading to the home.

Wonderful Stay!
Lovely home! We loved this property. The location was perfect for us. Quiet and peaceful with a beautiful porch facing the woods and a little creek. The home is spotless, well designed, and beautifully decorated. The host was super responsive and easy to work with when we wanted to extend a day on our stay. A great cabin for visiting the area, tucked away and private, but very close to wineries, recreation areas and SIU. Perfect for a romantic getaway, family trip or parents visiting students. The home is well stocked with all you could need. Will definitely stay again when we are visiting the area.

Great long weekend
My wife and I had a great long weekend here. The cabin was perfect for us. It was clean and in a wonderful location. It’s secluded but within east driving distance to the wineries and Giant City State Park. We are already discussing our next trip.

Beautiful Nature Retreat
Very impressed with this lovely house. The place was immaculate and had everything we could need. The view of the creek and forest were delightful. A perfect place to get away and relax while still being just a short drive from town. The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We had a great time.

Beautiful Private Getaway
Wow! We absolutely loved our stay at Ann's cabin. Out-of-the way but a short drive to everything we wanted. The location was quiet and peaceful. The house was immaculate and tastefully well-appointed with beautiful art, upscale furniture and superb linens. The beds were comfortable and the internet was blazing fast. Definitely not your average cabin!! Our hostess was available with dining and sight-seeing tips. We have stayed at many VRBO properties and this is at the top of our favorites list.
