Thank you so much for visiting our cabin and taking such great care of it!
Glad you enjoyed the hot tub and “Solo Stove” fire pit.
We hope to have you visit again!
The cabin was nice and cozy. The deck was relaxing. It was mostly clean,only thing was the sofa had animal hair on it but a lint roller took care of that. Communication with the host was great. Overall it was very nice.

Thank you so much for your positive response and feedback about the pet hair. We strive to have the cabin clean and free of pet and have taken extra steps to make sure all furniture is free of pet hair.
Great property. Super clean. A/C is top notch. The hot tub was clean and worked well. TV was nice and swiveled. Well thought out and attention to details in this adorable treehouse. Nice quiet. Easy check in. We were in town for a wedding and enjoyed our stay with our pooch. My only suggestion would be to add a portable luggage stand.
We really enjoyed our stay here! Tom, the host, is very friendly. We had the pleasure of meeting him, which made our trip even better. He really wants to ensure that you are comfortable, feel welcomed, and have a great stay. Communication was outstanding. The place was very clean, and we had everything we needed and more. This was hands down our best cabin rental experience we have had! The cabin was in a great central location which allowed us to visit state parks and the Shawnee National Forest. The deck with the hot tub and fire pit were a great way to wind down and relax after hiking.

Very well furnished for dogs. There was even a little fenced in area for bathroom breaks in the backyard. Hot tub and the grill worked great. Kitchen had everything you need to cook a meal. Beautiful sunrise views off the back deck.
An absolute gem surrounded by all nature has to offer! Extremely clean! Hot tub was AWESOME after a long day of hiking. Tom was an excellent host and has thought of everything you need for your stay. The upper deck was perfect for morning coffee while listening to the birds and watching the deer move through the property. Great location to get to all areas of Shawnee National Forest.
We loved staying here! The cabin was perfect for the two of us and our pet. Totally charming, the cabin had afforded us much confirt and relaxation after day of hiking and exploring. A wonderful retreat,indeed!
Was a perfect spot to get away for the week and go down and hike. Centrally located to most things in Shawnee National Park. Would go again

Thanks again for visiting our “treehouse “ cabin in the woods. Glad you enjoyed the central location being located in the heart of Shawnee National Forest! Only 10 away from Feryn Clyffe State park and 20 minutes from Giant City! Hope you’ll
Visit again and enjoy all that Lake Egypt has to offer… just a short 1/4 walk or drive down to the beach.
Biggest hang up was no code was provided that I could see in the emails, only the unlock procedure. Hot tub looked murky. Gas grill needs new igniter, broken wire on base of igniter.

Thank you for staying with us and for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate all guest feedback.
We'd like to address a few of the concerns you mentioned. The correct door code was provided as soon as you arrived, and we apologize again for the mix-up with the code that was emailed before your stay.
Regarding the hot tub and the grill igniter, these issues were not reported to us during your stay. As noted in our phone call, text messages, and emails, we encourage guests to contact us immediately with any concerns so we can resolve them as quickly as possible. Had we been made aware of either issue, we would have sent maintenance right away. Grill igniters are wear items that occasionally require replacement, and this would have been a simple repair.
Our goal is to provide every guest with an outstanding experience, and we are always happy to address any concerns during a stay so they can be resolved promptly. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best.
Came down for a little weekend getaway, and could not be happier. Place is clean, beautiful setting, and super comfortable.
