Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Lake of Egypt

Great place to stay, beautiful views, very clean and comfortable, high speed internet, definitely will be back!!! Very easy to communicate with owners, always responded within minutes, I can say only positive things about our experience!!!!! 😊

We loved how the history of the house stayed with it. We loved the fact you left memories of the owner. When we pulled in we thought the house was going to be so tiny and that it wasn't going to work. once we walked in we were totally shocked. There was tons of room, upstairs and downstairs. It was so peaceful and homey.

Teresa's place was perfect for visiting our SIUC student, it is only 12 minutes away from campus but it feels like it is a different world. So much fun to be surrounded by trees and to hear the birds in the morning. (We are from Chicago and the spring is so much further ahead in Carbondale.) We love how close the place is to Cedar Lake. It is a great Airbnb for the 3 of us with everything we needed to cook and live life for a few days. We love that Teresa is so dog friendly, with 2 dogs of her own.

Beautiful place! Perfect spot for star gazing and unplugging.

Great space, great price, great host!

The place is better than we could imagine for deer camp. She thinks of everything and more for our to make our stay perfect

Had a great stay celebrating my dad's 90th birthday! The house was easy to find, clean and Trenton was responsive to my questions. Would stay here again!

Everything was just as described and pictured. It is a bit of a drive to get back to the property, but Vickie had let us know that ahead of time so we were prepared. We had a great experience.

Crystal’s little cabin was very cute and cozy and a fun place to stay. We saw deer by the pond, heard a hoot owl at night, geese in the morning. There was even a turkey that gobbled one morning. We didn’t see it, but my husband heard it. For a couple of people, this is a great place. I highly recommend it!

Our family of 4 and furbaby enjoyed our stay as always. We love fishing and kayaking the pond. The deer were great greeting every morning with such peaceful sunrises. Can't beat the nightlife either, evening bonfires with a sky full of stars. We were even lucky enough to catch the northern lights. We will see you all next year!

Cozy little place, great to get away from the busyness of the day to day.

Great little cabin! Perfect distance from many hiking trails. The cabin was ready and clean for our arrival. Everything was as described.

We were surprised by the amenities and care that Mary took to get the place ready for our stay. She had all the essentials in case you missed packing something and more. She was very responsive when we asked for dinner recommendations. The cabin is right at the entrance to Godwin trail and 1.5 miles from the cross. It is walking distance to the cross as well.

Great amenities and very clean. My husband enjoyed the hot tub on the deck. It was really wonderful to wake up every morning and have coffee on the second story deck among the tree tops. We just wished that the beautiful, wooded property directly around the house was accessible to guests. However, it was fairly easy to drive to a lot of really cool places to hike.

I absolutely loved staying at the Carlton Cabin! The cabin was beautiful and cozy and incredibly clean. The hosts also provide snacks, soap, coffee, and more. The location was perfect, it was very quiet and peaceful! We loved it!

We had a great time at Travis's cabin. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of blankets and nice big towels. Perfect spot to relax and get away from it all.
