Summary: Had a great, but too brief of a stay, at Linda and Jon's cabin. Very comfortable. Just wish the vegetable garden was ready for harvest. While the cabin appears isolated at first glance, it is actually very convenient to Kroger, restaurants, etc. Would definitely stay there again, if passing through Carbondale.

Summary: Took a day ride to visit our daughter and wanted something other than a hotel room. I stumbled across this little cozy cabin down by Crab Orchard and loved it. Nothing super fancy but it was perfect for what we needed. The place was a bit rustic and very clean and we loved it. There were deer and a few other animal visitors that we quite enjoyed. The bed was comfy and we slept great, the location takes you out of the hustle and bustle of the rest of the world. Would love to do it agian.

Summary: Overall stay was amazing. Only complaint was about blinds being short on windows , bed was hard , shower curtain was missing. But if the bed was softer it would have been perfect just had a hard time sleeping

Summary: Linda and Jon were great and very responsive hosts. The cabin had everything you'd expect for a rural setting. The evenings were super quiet and the skies were super dark. The cabin was very warm and cozy for our winter stay. Perfect for a getaway for 2. The recent ice and snowstorms provided for some stunning landscape views. We'll definitely consider booking again when we come back to the area.

Summary: Very clean and well-loved. I really love that we could bring our dog and it was quiet and private. We hiked Little Grand Canyon, ate in Carbondale, and just enjoyed down town at the home.
