The property is exactly as described, and its location is perfect to explore all that the area has to offer. We hiked the Giant City State Park, Ferne Clyffe State Park, and Tunnel Hill State Trail. The trails were very easy for our three kiddos, and there was so much climbing on the bluffs for them (and us) to take part in. The Trail of Tears Memorial at the Tunnel Hill Trailhead in Vienna, IL is a must see. We made a quick stop at the Boo Rothman Memorial Park, which was a lot of fun for the entire family. There were a ton of deer near the property as well. We enjoyed breakfast at Iron Whisk in Cobden, IL, dinner at Quatros Pizza in Carbondale, IL, and dinner at M.A.'s Filipino Cuisine in Marion, IL. The house was wonderful to come back to for relaxation after hiking and exploring all day. The kitchen was fully equipped to handle feeding our little army, and the couch was easy to doze off in while watching a movie in the evening. Highly recommend for families! ##### Noah P.
