September in Southern IL
We’d stayed here once before, and it was just as good as last time. The house has a good layout for families, and it sits in a convenient location for the wineries/activities. Also the deer were out every morning/night.

Great house in S. IL for outdoors and wine trail
Conveniently located for Southern IL excursions. Very good privacy on low-traffic road despite open ground. Dark skies for star gazing. Fields, brush, and woods for wildlife viewing from front porch. Comfortable, pretty well-equipped, and well stocked for meals and relaxing indoors. Minor complaints: the well pump was a bit noisy, and the nice garage wasn't usable.

Quiet retreat on the wine trail
This spot is a gem! It is perfectly located in the heart of the Shawnee Hills wine trail just minutes from downtown Cobden. The home is on a quiet country road with a fantastic view of the sunrise. There were all the amenities available, good coffee selection, and an added bonus of a snack basket! The front porch was our favorite place! We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Quiet Weekend Get Away
This place is just as described! It has everything you need for a family stay. It is close enough to town if you need something but I’m the middle of the country. Very close to the Wine Trail. How to stay again!

Quiet Stay
This house sits in a good spot where it’s far enough into the country to be quiet, but close enough to town to be convenient. It also has good proximity to the wineries. I’d recommend for a family stay because it has comfy common areas with bedrooms on each side of the house.
