Experience the Solitude and Seclusion
Rocky Comfort Cabins

More than just a place to stay, it's an experience.

Since The French Creole Cabin is at the highest elevation on the property and surrounding terrain, you will be treated to a full sunrise and sunset.

From the Creole Cabin, enjoy watching the weather come in from miles away, or the surreal experience to watch as the fog slowly rolls in, and rises above the canopy of the forest.

Unique Cabins in Southern Illinois on The Shawnee Hills Wine Trail

Peaceful and Uncrowded.

Secluded and Private, all three cabins have a scenic path to beautiful Blue Sky Vineyard, the premiere award winning winery on the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail. We are out in the rolling Shawnee Hills. There is no internet or WIFI so it is a perfect way to disconnect for a romantic southern Illinois cabin getaway for two.

The cabins all are whole homes a minimum of a football field apart. Just bring food, do a little hiking and, if you wish, you might not see another soul. We look forward to being your place to stay for an amazing getaway on The Shawnee Hills Wine Trail.

Time to Plan your Winter Getaway...

Hike Along the Bluffs

Hiking in Winter at Lusk Creek Canyon with bluffs

Beauty beyond description awaits in The Shawnee Forest during the crisp winter months. See magnificent bluffs, waterfalls, slot canyons...the true beauty comes out when the foliage has dropped.

The Best Part? There is no need for bug spray!

Cozy Nights

Couple snuggled up in front of a cozy fireplace at the Hollow Cabin

Snuggle up with your special someone next to a toasty gas fireplace with your favorite book or a glass of wine, and shut out the rest of the world. Is there anything more cozy than a fire?

Lose yourself in the dancing flames and just be.

Hot Tubs

Toasty hot tub with waterfall at the French Creole Cabin
