Private Cabin with Pond on Family Farm

With a large deck overlooking a pond and direct access to Braeutigam Orchards, this private cabin tucked away in the woods is a great place for a relaxing getaway. The farm has been owned and operated by the same family since 1831, with the sixth, seventh, and eighth generations currently living and working on the farm. While you are staying at the cabin, you can purchase seasonal fruits and vegetables and request a tour of the property. Come experience the charm of rural Southwestern Illinois! Located right off of Route 15. Only 10 minutes from Downtown Belleville and 30 minutes from Downtown St. Louis.

Great place for a peaceful getaway. Cabin and surroundings are beautiful. Tom is a wonderful host. He spends a lot of time with his guests to acclimate us with everything in the cabin and some history on the farm and the cabin. We have already booked again for a visit in December.

Excellent Stay
They were very accomodating in the check in/check out process. The property was fantastic, clean, updated, and the perfect stay while participating in a nearby tournament. They had a marketplace and bakery onsite, which we visited every day. Fresh food/pastries, etc. We will want to book this property every year. Excellent!!!

We returned following an awesome stay. We were once again treated like old friends. Everyone was very helpful even to the point of discussing the different types of fruit/vegetables. My wife still talks about feeding the goats/pigs. Highly recommend staying here.

Cute log home
Fishing was *chef's kiss*. My daughter & I caught over 40 huge bluegill & around 10 2-4lb bass right off the deck in the pouring rain. We were soaked 2 the skin, but we were catching so many fish we didn't want 2 go inside. Unfortunately, there were other issues w/the house, that need 2b addressed. Let me say the owner is very kind, he's just really hard 2 get a hold of when u need him. I understand there's a farm 2 run, but if u have people staying in your home, u need 2b available if issues come up. Which they did. If you're planning 2 do any cooking, there isn't enough cookware 2 accomplish what u need. We couldn't figure out how 2 turn the stove on our 1st night & we needed 2 use it. Also, the bathtub doesn't drain when u shower. So you're standing in 5" of water while showering. We tried calling the owner but he couldn't b reached. Through phone or VRBO. I had 2 wait until the next morning & drive 2 the store 2 talk w/him. When I got there I said I needed 2 speak w/the owner & was told he was impossible 2 reach. Um...what?? The bathtub issue was never addressed & I was given a frying pan & told the stove is hard work. We had 2 figure it out on our own. The biggest problem: They have a Blackstone grill. Awesome, right? We got some steaks & veg & couldn't wait 2 use it. Unfortunately, we opened the lid & it's filthy. Why wasnt it cleaned b4 we got there? These problems need to be addressed.

The perfect cabin for comfort and privacy. The cabin offers all of the amenities you will need. You might want to pack bug repellant and a flashlight. Be sure to visit the nearby orchard and market!!! We hope to reserve this unit again soon!!!!

Awesome house. Pictures are very accurate. It's spacious, peaceful and quiet. The host is very nice and shows you around the property and gives some history on this 8th generation property. It would be awesome to see some pictures in the cabin showing the history. We will stay here again!

Planning to come back!
The pictures cannot capture the peace and serenity that this cabin has! It was clean, quiet, beautiful, relaxing and so much more than we expected. Tom and family made us feel so comfortable and welcomed during our stay. We definitely bought some delicious goodies at the store and bakery nearby. We even got to feed the chickens and bonus turkey! This is definitely the place to go for a relaxing vacation and we plan on coming back.

Orchard Getaway
We had a wonderfully quiet stay at this cute little cabin nestled in the woods, just off the beaten path of a local orchard. From our deck we could take in nature and see the wildlife coming and going from the quaint pond. It was a much needed break from the city.
