Fishing trip
Cabin was small but okay for a couple and the loft is good for children an adult could not stand up in the loft and the steps were terrible. Hard to park a boat. Wish it had a washer and dryer. Being on the lake it would have been nice to be able to wwsh ir dry items.

Very nice
Overall, this was a nice place to stay. The lake is very nice and we had access to a beach and a dock. The only thing that we felt was missing was a grill. There was a fire pit outside with a grate held up with bricks, which was what we were told we could use as a bbq grill, but I think we were expecting an actual grill. Still, overall everything was great.

Great getaway spot
Shannon and I had a great stay at the cabin and a fun day on the lake on Saturday. It was just the two of us. Would be a great spot for a family with kids. The kids would love the loft area.

Enjoyable Getaway
Property was as the pictures showed except the dock is not the one in the photos. We ended having a great time and the cabin was small but exactly what we needed since we spent our time on the lake. I recommend to ask details about the where the boat dock is located so you have the info ahead of time. Definitely recommend for a quick quiet getaway, beautiful view of the lake.

Cabin in April
The cabin was well equipped, but a WiFi would have been appreciated. If I had thought of it earlier, I would have reserved a "hot spot" from my local library for the trip. The owner had lots of cute decorations and supplies that made us feel more at home. The cabin was very close to a boat ramp which we used each day. Although the driveway was a little tight, there was plenty of space for our boat once we learned how to navigate the space. Denise (owner) was very helpful with restaurant suggestions. It was close enough to some major towns (about 20 minutes to Marion) for groceries since the local store and eating places (about 5 miles) close early. A local gas station had ethanol free as for boats, for which we were thankful. Although the fish were not biting, we have a great time. Thanks Densie.

Perfect Getaway Cabin near the lake
We had a fabulous time at the cabin and our girls, ages 5 and 10 loved the loft! They felt like they were on a great adventure! We were able to access the lake through a gated private area and spent a lot of time fishing from the shore and dock. The cabin was spotless when we arrived and there was even Charcoal for us to grill out. The only recommendation I would make is for a few more cooking utensils, etc. as we are big cooks, but we had enough of what we needed and made do with no problems. I loved that it was so peaceful and we were made to feel welcome. The girls asked when we could go back!

Great location for our Adult Weekend !
Had an amazing time !! Cabin owner was very helpful and efficient! Deck area was great for grilling out dinner and spending time with our friends. Location was perfect for us renting a boat for the whole weekend, as we were able to tie it close to cabin and go in for lunch and the small rain shower we got one day. Lake of Egypt was extremely clean!! We Will definitely be back! !

Progress needed
I appreciated the communication with the owner but had wished it was more timely. I appreciated that she gave us her phone number which helped. There were some amenities that we usually experience in other locations that were not present at this property, for example: No soap for the shower, inadequate materials to use the grill, furniture not in ideal shape (kitchen table chairs were wobbly and coming apart), no cookie sheets for baking, pillows in bedroom were not bed pillows but couch pillows with a pillow case, and inadequate knives for slicing. I usually am not critical of locations but this site appeared to have a few more items needed to use that could not be found.

Perfect Getaway
Perfect spot to disconnect. No WiFi at the cabin and limited TV channels means plenty of time to relax unbothered. Lots of hiking trails close by and breweries as well. The stairs to the loft are a bit tricky to navigate (at a certain point, my head was touching the ceiling so I had to crawl the rest of the way up), but, other than that, I have nothing bad to say. Denise was incredibly easy to contact and answered any and all questions in a timely manner.
