Vacation rentals with lake access in Carterville

Tim’s place is peaceful and a reasonable distance from Kinkaid Lake. We enjoyed the quiet surroundings and amenities provided.

We were in town for a girls get away with some hiking and Twisted Sister was perfect! Such a beautiful setting and so close to the places we wanted to go. It was super easy to get in, very clean, and had everything we needed to cook for ourselves as we prefer to do. We also enjoyed strawberries from Flamm Orchard, and great hikes at nearby Little Grand Canyon and Cove Hollow, plus of course Giant City State Park. Candace was an excellent hostess. She lives next door but gave us complete privacy. And when I had questions or wanted recommendations she was super responsive. It made us feel safe and cared for. It is so nice that she shares her beautiful property with guests in this way. We will be back!

We enjoyed our stay. Very peaceful and we especially liked the large back deck. Seeing the deer and wild turkey's were an added bonus. Definitely would stay here again!

Loved staying at Ellen’s beautiful lake home for the weekend. It was very comfortable for all and views of the lake/sunset did not disappoint! Ellen was super quick to respond to questions before and during our stay, so accommodating and pleasant :) Lake of Egypt is one of our favorite spots and we enjoyed going back once again. Ellen’s home is one of the prettiest yet - updated and modern with all of the conveniences + lots of extras with vacationers in mind. Located near the marina for great food, boozy shakes, live music and the water park. We also enjoyed the kayaks provided and hanging out on the large deck of the home, as well as the spacious dock below. Highly recommend this host and home for your next trip to the lake!

The house was perfect for a quiet ladies get away. Nicely decorated, easy to access. Owner kept in contact and made sure we always had what we needed. The neighborhood felt safe for morning walks. Many deer and even a fox! Definitely sleeps four adults in the king beds comfortably. The small couch is a little stiff for older backs, but fine for younger fit bodies.

JR was quick to respond and friendly. We went there for a fishing trip and it did not disappoint. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of space for the 4 of us. Could easily do 6 people. The porch swing was really comfortable sitting on at night enjoying lake life. The covered pier was awesome! Electric to plug in our boats, lighted and a nice little fish cleaning station. It was a great deal and we hope to go back again soon!!

Our stay at this lake house was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the thoughtful touches and attention to detail. The living room’s large windows, provided breathtaking views of the lake. It had every appliance and utensil we needed, along with thoughtful extras like spices, oil, and coffee filters. The bathrooms were equipped with ample towels and toiletries. We enjoyed peaceful mornings on the deck, sipping coffee, cruising the lake, and watching the wildlife. The quiet surroundings made it easy to relax and unwind. We can’t wait to come back and stay again!!

Our stay was wonderful! With in driving distance of the things we wanted to do but so quiet and peaceful when we got back!

Oh my where to start!! Do not stay anywhere else besides here!! Dixie is an all star host! Extremely accommodating, makes the most delicious cookies, has the most beautiful, relaxing home, a beautiful pond that’s fully stocked of fish, has an adorable doggy named huckleberry that gets the zoomies, she was so fast at answering questions, asking what we needed, and even brought down a fire pit & the sticks for the kiddos to make s’mores, my friends from Florida & Indiana said they will 100% be booking again! Thank you so much Dixie for making our first meet up an outstanding one!! 🫶🏼 I might even just book to stay here for a night away from my own house even tho I live in town, it’s that good!!! So don’t waste time book here!!!

Our stay at Whirlwind Farm was beyond our expectations. Dixie was very responsive and made sure every detail was satisfactory for us. We highly recommend staying here when you are in the DuQuoin area.

It was a great private location surrounded by nature, close to restaurants. A very beautiful stay and it felt like home. The hostess was very kind and understanding when our dog had an accident. We had such an amazing time.

The home was extremely clean and well organized. It was quiet and exactly what the family needed.

House was clean and matched the pictures and view of one of Lake of Egypt’s coves was nice. Lots of wildlife in the area. Location is peaceful. The house has almost everything you could need. We were staying in the area for our daughter’s wedding but we would stay again if the need ever arose.

We enjoyed our stay. Thank you for having us! We enjoyed the fishing, great views, wildlife, hot tub, and the comfortable indoors. Thank you for hosting!

I can't say enough positive about our stay at Melvin's place - it is truly outstanding! Melvin is tremendously responsive and helpful and the place is absolutely wonderful - we loved it!
