Cabin vacation rentals in Illinois River

Was a beautiful place to stay for the weekend. Definitely worth the visit!

I had my bachelor party here and it was a perfect location for 13 guests! The house was very spacious and had tons of places to hang out and activities to do. The back yard was also absolutely beautiful. The host was very friendly and communicative. I would totally stay here again!

Very peaceful. My wife and I enjoy our stay a lot. We will definitely be back. Probably bring our kids next time too.

The place looked even better in person than it did in the pictures. Parking was limited, but the inside was very spacious and very clean. Jill is great to work with and very nice! I let Jill know that we would be getting ready for my wedding there and she left a bottle of champagne with a sweet note. Overall a fantastic place to stay!

What a perfect little spot. We travels for a wedding in the morning & reception 6 hours later. We loved the country living & just enjoyed a peaceful weekend! Thank you so much!! We are wanting to come back with our 2 older children & explore Authur & other surrounding towns. Thank you for a great stay!

The photos don't do it justice, it was way better than what we expected, very private and rustic, with all the amenities that you could need, I loved it!

We loved our stay. Everything felt very new and intentionally designed. From the games to the speaker for our music, we enjoyed ourselves immensely. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some. We were able to watch a few woodland creatures from the comfort of the cabin, and it was terrific. Nichole was responsive when I had questions, and the guidebook is next level.

We absolutely loved this Airbnb. It was such a nice and calm experience, perfect for a weekend getaway from the city. Corey was very helpful with everything, responded quickly to any questions we had and recommended a lot of great places. We would totally recommend!

The place and property were amazing! Joe was very helpful when we locked ourselves out 😂. Very peaceful and secluded. We will be staying there again next year for sure and hopefully can have the rest of our friends stay at the silo next door. 10/10 would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quite getaway!

The house was set up with everything a family could want. The beds were comfortable. The 4 outside sitting areas and huge dining table gave everyone room to hang out. Maddy had lots of board games and even a bag game that the kids had room to play in the family room. The grill/smoker was a wonderful surprise, too. We will book again.

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Lynda's cabin. It's right on Matanzas Beach, minutes from Havana. The pictures don't do it justice! The cabin felt much larger than expected. Lynda has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a fully stocked kitchen and BBQ grill. The views are gorgeous, and sitting on the deck or by the firepit during sunset is not to be missed. There are some great restaurants / bars in Havana, including Babe's, Stag Tap, Lulu's, and Riverside Grill. And of course Peaches for ice cream. Lynda was very helpful & checked on us to make sure we got in & had everything we needed. I would love to stay at the cabin again!

The place was beautiful! I loved the view of the lake and would of loved to sit in the enclosed deck but was too cold. The loft was really and the decor was awesome

This stay exceeded all my expectations! The location was perfectly secluded, offering the peace and privacy I was looking for. The space was spotless—cleanliness was clearly a top priority. It was also very affordable, which made it an even better value. My host was incredibly responsive and proactive, checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly and offering helpful tips throughout the stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quiet, clean, and well-managed place to unwind!

Perfect place for a weekend trip! Very clean and such a cute place, couldn’t have gone any better!! If you are coming in the summer, make sure to bring some bug spray because Central IL bugs can get crazy!

This was my third day at one of Dimitar‘s Airbnb‘s! It was another positive experience as expected. He is an incredible host and is very accommodating/available to troubleshoot any potential issues or concerns (not that we had any issues). The place is very unique and is in an absolutely gorgeous location. It is isolated from the road and has a beautiful view. This place is a lot nicer than a typical Airbnb. It really feels like someone’s home and is well cared for and has a lot of features that most Airbnb’s don’t have like a tankless hot water heater… etc… highly recommend this host and any of his spaces.

Had a wonderful visit. Th kids loved the room upstairs. Would love to visit in the summer.

Nice cozy cabin, private and secluded, just roomy enough, friendly helpful hosts, literally bike distance from the state park.

Everything was wonderful !! The host were very attentive, the animal tour awesome. Very relaxing and a perfect time to enjoy all the fall colors,just beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us. Cant wait to come back!

We really enjoyed staying there. Hope to be able to stay there again. Thanks so much!!

Justin’s and Katie were absolutely great, the house address is on a dead end road so your gps don’t take you exactly to the house but Katie explained everything to us and it was extremely easy. We drove in brome buff ny and had to drop off some stuff early they had no problem. Justin was also great him and his friend Austin helped us with some hunting information and were very knowledgeable about where to go places around the town 10/10 recommend if your looking to stay in a “remote cabin getaway” only downfall is I’m booking it again for this week next year and you can’t have it 😂😂😂

Wow, this place was exactly what we needed. Total privacy, fresh air, and just the right kind of quiet. The signal was spotty, which honestly made it even better.....we fully unplugged and loved it. The cabin was cozy and stocked with everything we needed. We didn’t get to use the fire pit because it was a bit too windy during our stay, but it looked like the perfect setup for calmer nights. The deck lights up beautifully in the evening, and the stars? Absolutely unreal. With zero light pollution, it was one of the most humbling night skies we’ve seen this year. Great hosts, great spot, great time. We’d come back in a heartbeat.

I loved the cabin. It was beautiful, cozy felt like home. The host was amazing answers right away. The scenery is beautiful

We would love nothing more than to save this place just for us but that would not be fair. This place was simply amazing, you will not regret staying at Sweet Water Lodge! Whether you are staying to go ride side by sides or just hang out by the amazing pond (with bouncy toys) there is something for everyone here. Sweet Water Lodge will not disappoint at all!

Friendly owner, very communicative. Provided games and things to do within the cabin which was great. Clean space & amenities provided.
