I talked several of my friends from school into travelling almost 400 miles from the big city of Chicago to Southern Illinois near my hometown and every minute and mile in that cramped van was worth it. Bob and Dixie were more than accommodating and gave excellent advice on things to do in the area; Garden of the Gods, Cave-In-Rock,... More

We wanted to get out of the big city and take a few days to ourselves before joining the family down south for Thanksgiving. This was the perfect place! The cabin was spectacular and we had almost every local attraction to ourselves! We were the only ones in Cave-in-Rock, which was eerie and cool and the same time. We were... More

We spent early mornings and late evenings on the screening porch listening to sounds and beauty of nature that surrounds the cabins. If you are a nature... More

These cabins are truly a slice of heaven in Southern Illinois. The cabins themselves are comfortable and the surroundings are fabulous! It's the best place to "get away from it all" that I've found yet. More

This is a great place to take your family! My husband had to work down in Harrisburg for a couple of days so we all went with him, and stayed at Dogwood Cabins.
