Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Lake of Egypt

Such a beautiful serene place and very well managed cabin with a fully stocked kitchen, tons of books and games

Amy‘s place was just what we were looking for, a short getaway weekend. It was quite peaceful and Amy was very responsive anytime we had any questions. The hot tub was a big plus and we got to enjoy it many times. The cabin was just far away from everything to feel you are out of the chaos of everyday yet close enough to some smaller towns when we wanted to venture out and try something new. Amy’s place is very close to some really nice parks and other nature area for hiking fishing and exploring. The private dock was also nice for sitting in the sun and fishing. Amy was a great host and her place was just what we were looking for.

This was a nice, quaint, cozy little place to stay. There's plenty of things throughout the house that Ellen didn't need to include, but having them was a nice little touch of either convenience or aesthetic. Having it be within walking distance of Vienna and the park was a nice perk. For a simple, 2 person getaway, it was a pleasant spot to visit.

This was a great place for my wife and I. There are plenty of trails to hike within 20 minutes. One trail basically starts right along the property. Giant City is very close for dinner or many great hikes. There are several wineries in the area and Carbondale is less than 20 minutes away. Having the hot tub outside on the deck was a perfect way for us to unwind with a glass of wine after hiking for the day. There was plenty of privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed. We will keep this place in mind for future travels to this area.

Perfect place to stay on lake of Egypt. We fished, biked tunnel hill and checked out the wineries. We loved our visit.

Fun rockstar vibe - my wife said she felt like we were staying in the Hollywood Hills. Place as described, very reasonably priced, would stay here again!

We had a fantastic stay at the treehouse. It was a great homebase as we explored the hikes and wineries that Southern Illinois has to offer. We loved the location being right near the Panthers Den hike, Blue Sky, and Feather Hills. Many other things were with 15-20 minutes. We were especially grateful to be able to bring our dog. He loves hiking and wineries too. Such a peaceful location surrounded by the trees and creek. This was our third trip to Southern Illinois and would definitely book this place again.

This is a truly magical location that offers a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. It's easy to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature right on the property through forest bathing, and it's also conveniently located near state parks, as well as various food and drink options. Bonnie and Paul have created a stunning, private space where I felt completely safe as a solo traveler, knowing they lived nearby. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to return in the future.

This was the 2nd time I stayed here. It was a great weekend! Close to some great hiking spots. Evenings were my favorite, hanging out back under the pine trees listening to the wildlife. Very peaceful and relaxing. We will be back again.
