Whether you are planning a family reunion, a holiday celebration, a wedding group, or a hunting trip, these two welcoming homes provide the perfect balance of shared connection and country calm.
This expansive property features a total of 10 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, designed to accommodate up to 16 guests. The layout is split between two distinct residences to maximize comfort. The Main House offers a 1,700 sq ft layout featuring four bedrooms and a full kitchen with spacious living and dining areas.

The grounds are designed for togetherness, featuring two outdoor fire pits, two charcoal grills, a sun room, and a screened-in deck with serene pond views.
Located in the heart of the countryside, the retreat is a short drive from several iconic Illinois landmarks. You can explore the beauty of the Garden of the Gods in Shawnee National Forest, visit the Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge, or enjoy a tasting at Pheasant Hollow Winery.
