Twisted Sister's Retreat
A wonderful little place! Quaint & tucked away; only a 10-15m ride into town. Candace made the two of us feel right at home and had great recommendations. The backyard is a birders paradise! Great home base for multiple Shawnee sights & wineries; would definitely revisit.

Cozy and charming modern vintage style home
Jennifer’s place was perfect for what we needed, especially close to the hiking spots we were looking forward to along the Cache River. The house was clean and had lots of local recommendations, snacks, it was much bigger than we expected and Jennifer even reached out about what to do in the event of severe weather when the forecast looked not so great. Highly recommend!

Cedar Lake Retreat
Stayed here with a friend and our 2 dogs. Had a chance to meet Teresa and her two pups. She was very friendly. I think my gps took me the long way around to her house. I was beginning to wonder if I was in the middle of nowhere but that was not the case. The place definitely is more rural than urban but we were very close to Carbondale. I would stay again.

Sweet Peas Bungalow
We had a lovely stay for a girls weekend in IL wine country. Would definitely return.

Lucky Queen- 4-bedroom Steps away from the Casino
Elizabeth’s airbnb was amazing for our group! It was in a great location only 2 mins from downtown Cape Girardeau, and was perfect for a larger group.

Shawnee Forest Vacation Lodge
Kevin’s place was PERFECT!! Super cozy & CLEAN! Our family loved the peaceful, secluded location. Kevin quickly responded any time I had a question and gave us several good recommendations. Our pups felt right at home too. We look forward to staying here again!

Herman’s Corner Cottage
Such a wonderful place to stay!! My husband had a two week work trip in the Cape area and this was the perfect home away from home for him to stay. It had all the amenities he needed in a peaceful area to relax in the evening times. Our host was so very attentive with very quick responses to any questions we had. We will definitely be booking again for next year.

Stylish 3 BR house downtown w/ fenced in yard
So convenient to everything! We rented a 2nd place nearby for our adult kids, it was great since they were only 2 blocks away from one another. It will be great when the triplex is available to be rented as individual units or 3 all together! Great idea!

Peaceful Custom Carbondale Home w/ Pool, Near SIU!
Loved staying at this location. So close to restaurants and shops and outdoor adventures. Very quiet. Amazing views of stars. Plenty of sleeping spaces. Very responsive and helpful host!

Southern Illinois Eclipse Camp
I decided last minute to see the 2024 eclipse in 100% totality. I drove all the way from Colorado to Marion, IL. All hotels were booked & really expensive. Then I saw Cassie's camping spot. I'm a solo female traveler with a dog & not much of a Camper so I was a little nervous, but this location was so easy to find, and felt very safe. Cassie even provided hotdogs and marshmallows for everyone. This was the perfect location to see the 2024 eclipse in 100% totality. I'll remember this always!

Pond/Pool/Fire pit/Pet Friendly
This quaint and cozy place was a perfect stay for our road trip. The patio was a great spot to enjoy dinner! The weather wasn’t the best but we made the best of it and did enjoy the pool for a bit.

Carbondale Pool House - Sauna, Hot Tub, Dogs OK
One of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had. We walked in to a beautiful tasty spread (including incredible home made jam and bread) and enjoyed the stylish yet cozy digs the rest of the way. D. and Jane have great taste and talent. And they’re super sweet. I’m grateful to them for sharing their historic home with us. Highly recommend.

Waterfront Eclipse Camping
We stayed at Cassi’s for the 2024 eclipse. The location was so peaceful. We brought our 32’ camper and she said “go anywhere in the back” so we set up in view of the pond. There were 8 others guests in tents. They were all so friendly. The kids loved playing with the dogs and kept talking about Aero and Zep all day after left. (I just realized that those dogs are probably named after Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin) Next time there’s an eclipse that cuts across Cassi’s yard you should definitely stay here! Or if you just want a nice place that’s not far from home.

Southern Illinois Eclipse Camp
great place!

Lake Views & Access + Private Pool, Pets OK
Kristine’s house was just as described. The space was great for gathering together to visit and relax. The pool was a great bonus! We would definitely choose this property again when staying in the area.

Waterfront Camp 2024 Eclipse
Loved staying here during the eclipse!!! Wonderful host, enjoyed just chilling and having a great time meeting people from all over!

Eva’s Roost - Retreat Cabin
Bonnie is a kind and accommodating host. She was very helpful with our questions and needs. They have a beautiful cabin in a beautiful location!

Panthers Inn Treehouse
Love staying here with our pup. The wrap around porch lets her keep an eye on everything lol. Very clean and nice amenities. Some of their coffee and mimosas on the porch in the morning can’t be beat. Nice fire pit for evenings visiting with friends and family. Tranquil

Hot Tub A-Frame near hiking and Blue Sky Winery
The cabin was just as described and equipped with all we could need! I really appreciated the cabin being dog-friendly, and they included even a stake for the dogs to run around on tethers while we were outside. The view was gorgeous and the cabin as cozy as could be - I'd go back in a heartbeat!

Cabin on the Wine Trail!
We wanted a quiet few days away. That is exactly what we got. Very peaceful area. We are planning to return!

Gram's Cabin at Bald Knob
Very nice comfy cabin. Kitchen was well stocked. The beds and showers were great. We did get to take a drive to the the cross and a deer visited the front "yard" the morning we packed up. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Tiny House of Paul
Bonnie is the epitome of a fantastic Airbnb host and an even better person! Bonnie and Paul's property is beautiful, incredibly peaceful, and the home itself is serene. The tiny home has everything you need, for a short or long term stay. The location is central to many attractions, restaurants, etc. I would recommend this gem to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in Southern Illinois.

Contemporary Glamping with Native American Appeal!
Beautiful cabin with all the comforts of home. Owner was responsive, friendly and helpful. The town and surrounding area are gorgeous if you want to explore, and there are great restaurants everywhere. Would 100% stay here again.

Contemporary Glamping with Native American Appeal
Fantastic week staying in this cabin in the Shawnee National Forest. Great location for quickly getting to various highlights in the region. The log cabin is outfitted very well with Native American decor and has a great kitchen and outdoor grill with a Kroger less than 10 minutes away. The hot tub and fire pit were great for unwinding at night. We look forward to returning for more hikes and vineyards in the area in the fall and would definitely stay here again.
