Neighborhood

This gorgeous little gem is nestled in the Shawnee National Forest. It's secluded, and yet convenient to hiking, wineries, and ziplines. The cabin is on our 52 acre property that borders the national forest. If peace, quiet, and solace is what you seek, you'll find them here. If you need amenities, the small town of Goreville is just 8 minutes east, with a Dollar General, Subway, Acee's (Local gas station chain with killer burgers), Whiffle Boys (local pizza chain with great Italian favorites), and a local grocery store as well as a couple of antique shops. Larger stores are located 20-25 minutes away in Marion, Anna, and Carbondale.

Guest access

The tiny cabin is set on a 52 acre working farm, with ample space for stargazing, walks and relaxing by the fire pit. This is a working farm and also hosts 2 other cabins, but your space is set apart and comfortably secluded from both other guests and the animals. A green tiny cabin is visible across the pasture from your cabin. It is occasionally occupied by our on-farm coffee roaster.

This tiny cabin was the cutest cabin I’ve stayed in yet. Perfect place for a couples retreat. Very beautiful countryside on the drive to the cabin. Our fav feature were the windows. The power went out during our stay because of a bad storm.. so we slept with the windows open in the loft. We woke up to birds chirping and a cool breeze. Keith was kind enough to bring us candles during the storm that night. He also kept us updated on the weather. Very kind host. Pay attention to the instructions on how to get to the cabin. I got lost but it’s mostly because I didn’t read the directions and had trouble with my GPS. We had a great time and we would definitely come back for another visit.

GREAT Getaway! No Wifi, but I was able to use my hotspot and work remote in the mornings. perfect size for me and my dog, the little kitchen was just the right amount of space to cook. they had plenty of utensils, microwave, minifridge, and electric grill. I recommend bringing your own camp stove or cook on the fire grate overlooking the rolling fields! the cabin did get a little chilly late at night/early mornings while I was there (late feb) but I bundled up. less than an hour away there are plenty of beautiful trails that kept me so busy I extended my stay! check out Blue Sky Vineyard after a wilderness hike in Panther's Den (stay the trail!) - beautiful hike & stunning vineyard.
