Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Southern Precinct

We are returning visitors to the Farmhouse. Jessica is an excellent hostess and provides a lovely place to stay. We highly recommend staying there.

Absolutely beautiful home! You can tell Kevin takes wonderful care of it. It is an older home with lots of decorations and antiques, but I had no issue even with bringing a toddler. We definitely enjoyed staying there and will probably stay again when we go back to town. Kevin was super helpful and responsive, and has everything you can think of in the air bnb. Forgot something? Kevin’s got you covered! It was a great trip and a great place to lay our head after a long day.

Good spot to experience southern IL for a weekend! Quiet neighborhood and easy to get around to other towns. Lia was very responsive and helpful in planning and while on site. Two bedrooms on the same level with a shared bathroom was convenient for our little family!

Beautiful country setting with lots to do on the property for my adult family of 5. The pool table, hot tub, and fire pit were wonderful!! We were just minutes away from dinner and a grocery store. We were just 20 minutes from hiking at the Garden of the Gods. We landed at Kevin's after a 4 day, 3 night back country hike and could not have been more comfortable! It was a wonderful place to relax and recharge.

Beautiful location and so close to town! very roomy and everything I needed for a weekend getaway. A great stay!

Nate's place was great! if you're traveling and need a great place to stay and freshen up- look no further! The home is super cozy and clean. The backyard is an oasis and private.

Tim and Melissa's place was very clean and comfortable. The surroundings were quiet and peaceful. All the hiking where we wanted to go was an easy drive from their place. We will definitely be staying here again, if we want to come back to the Shawnee.

Really enjoyed our stay! Pictures were accurate. Appreciated the thought put into what we might need so we didn’t even have to ask.

I normally don’t stay at Airbnb’s, being a camper, but I was pleasantly surprised. Dawn is a great host and I would recommend her Place to anyone.

It was the best day the couple was so wonderful to me and my family. I would say there again.

This studio apartment was perfect for an overnight stay. The description on Airbnb was accurate, we loved the lake inspired theme and the bed was comfortable. The location was great with little to no noise, the pizza shop (next door) was closed and we did not hear any noise from the tattoo shop above the apartment. We would recommend this place to anyone needed a safe place to stay overnight. Bonus it’s pet friendly!

Very nice location. You can walk down to the water and enjoy the marina. The location is very private. I very much enjoyed my stay.

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.

Great place to stay and within walking distance to great restaurant. Deb was amazing to work with and very responsive. Beds were comfortable and we had a great time. We will definitely stay here again.

I was surprised at just how big the space actually was. For an upstairs unit, it felt like a whole house. The hot tub was AMAZING! You can hear noises and people around you pretty easily, but it didn’t bother us at all. We enjoyed the stay 💕💕

Property was very clean and just perfect for our group of 10. Close to the lake (short drive away) and plenty of relaxing outdoor space for grilling, hanging out and enjoying time with family and friends.

My husband I stayed at Linda’s adorable place on a cross-country move. We had driven 13 hours when we arrived and maps delivered us easily. The cottage (best word I can use to describe) was clean and filled with adorable vintage artistic items. My exhausted husband was willing to head into Carbondale for pizza and it was an easy trip there and back (16 mins. Each way). This was a wonderful oasis for us on our journey.

This place was literally perfection! The home was so well thought out, and the small things that the host did really stood out. The location is perfect for a few days away from busy lives and just a slower pace of life. It’s the kind of place you want to tell everyone about but also keep it as your secret getaway. We will be back Hope around the fall. I can only imagine how stunning it is then!

Casey’s place was extremely clean and at our disposal was coffee, filters, everything else you may want to clean, which is extremely helpful. The washer and dryer were a plus and I didn’t feel like I had to rewash the clothes when I returned home. We wish the owners well and can’t say enough good about the cottage.

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!

Was looking for a quiet get away to go explore the Shawnee National Forest. Came across this place and it looked perfect. On arrival, it was exactly as described but even better! Accommodations were excellent.Lots of blankets, loved the decor, bed was COMFORTABLE, the covered porch was perfect to sit out on and look at the pond- even when it was raining. I cannot say enough about this place. Perfect. Will be back! Thank you to Travis for the perfect setting and for being an amazing host!

Our group has stayed at Jim’s place for four years now. Jim is always hospitable, the lodge is always very clean, and has all the listed amenities. The beautiful surroundings make our weekend very special, quaint, and relaxing. We are able to cook efficiently. We are hopeful to be back next year.

Had a great weekend at the cabin! It was perfect for the 3 couples. We did some of the Shawnee wine trail and then enjoyed the other amenities, playing board games and relaxing by the peaceful campfire. It's a great location, only 6 minutes from a Walmart but when you are at the cabin, no other homes are in sight. Would love to book again!

This place was very cozy. Had everything that I needed and some. Will definitely stay again
