House was very nice but......
I booked this for 2 main reasons. One that there was a wood burning stove and second for 2 bathrooms. Imagine my disappointment when there was NO wood burning stove. Really need to update pictures as even the fridge is not the same as in the picture picture!!!

Girls Getaway Weekend
This was a return trip for friends of 40+ years. Everything was the exact same: bright, clean, and airy. The kitchen has anything you could need to cook a meal (we made two dinners, the second bbq-ing steaks on the grill). The bathrooms are well-stocked and clean. We love this place. So serene. Hope to return in one year, God willing.

The cleanest VRBO stay
This home is exactly as described. There are many great features but most notable is how pristine this home was - from top to bottom. Clearly a well loved property. We stayed for the solar eclipse and it beat our expectations! Close to many wonderful hikes and rock climbing adventures in nearby parks and the Shawnee National Forest. Great bird watching.

Perfect
We had four couples. We are all in our 60s. The place was perfect for us. Very roomy, well appointed, right in the middle of the wine trail. Would also like to mention Wright transportation, and their driver “Karl with a K”. He was delightful. The whole weekend was just perfect. Definitely would stay here again.

Superb Stay
In our group of 6 adults, 4 are SIU alums. We wanted to spend a few days near our old stomping grounds. We could not have picked a better place. Just a bit off the beaten track but easily within reach of everything we wanted. The home is clean, comfortable, and charming. Best of all, it is just steps away from Starview Vineyards tasting room. If you are looking for a crazed party house this isn't it. But if you're looking for wonderful relaxing surroundings and great hosts you've come to the right place. Free advice: Don't miss their Vignoles. If that's not your thing then go for the wine slushies!

Wonderful!
This was the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed! The location was great for our girls’ get-together. Regina was so friendly and responsive. We had a great time.
This property is beautiful! The house is amazing and provided everything we needed! It was wonderful to sit out on the deck in the evenings and watch the deer. So peaceful and close enough to town for groceries and a family outing to the local bowling alley.

Perfect stay for our family visit!
Regina was a wonderful host. The house was clean, well stocked, and as advertised. The kitchen was perfect for our family. It was a short drive to nearly everywhere we wanted to go. We loved watching the fireflies and listening to the bullfrogs outside at night. Starview wines were delicious and the tasting room was fun! We will plan to stay here whenever we come back to visit. Thank you!

Perfect Wine Trail Stay!
We stayed here with 6 adults and it was the perfect place to land after a visit on the wine trail! The place was very clean and well stocked. There were 3 bedrooms on the main floor that were nicely spread out for us 3 couples to have privacy. Would work for a family as well. The highlight for me was the steam shower! The only negative was the 4th bedroom upstairs (that we didn't need) was so hot it would've been unusable. We didn't see a separate air conditioner up there, but that would be a must if you needed to use that room. So for anyone needing the 4th bedroom, I would ask in advance if there's a way to properly heat/cool it. Oh, and for coffee people, they have a regular coffee maker, no Keurig, so bring ground coffee. The only coffee there was a bucket of Folgers. Better than nothing, but wish I had brought my own coffee. Other than that, it was great! Beautiful property and I got to see deer come graze in the evening. Will most likely stay here again!

Perfect for a group of 60-somethings
Our group of 7 former co-workers (who met back in 1981 and have remained friends for 40+ years) stayed two nights. This house was perfect for our gathering: huge, clean, decorated so nicely, with plenty of indoor and outdoor gathering places to relax, adjacent to Starview Winery, with a well-equipped kitchen—I could go on and on. Bonus: the bluebirds outside the dining room window. The large sectional couch was ideal for watching the King’s Coronation. We had a ball. Looking forward to a return trip.

This house was perfect for our girls getaway. There were lots of common spaces for us to gather, chat, eat and play games but enough bedrooms and quiet spaces to relax in.
