Farmstay vacation rentals in Illinois

Beautiful place in the country The space has many extras My pup and I enjoyed the trails all over the property

We loved our stay, it was very cozy on a chilly night. I loved the high ceilings in here, it felt very open and spacious. I’d love to do another’s girls trip here! We especially loved the fireplace and watching old movies on the dvd player.

We stayed here for our daughter’s wedding. It was amazing! Beautiful and comfortable. Quiet and peaceful. Spacious bedrooms and modern kitchen and baths. We hated to leave! Perfect retreat and family gathering.

Very quaint and rustic place. Jilly was very helpful and communicative during our stay. We loved our stay!

Great place to stay, highly recommend if you are looking for a country retreat.

Mike’s place was great, had everything we needed and then some! Perfect for our family!

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful property nestled on a hill in the middle of nature. The location is peaceful and scenic—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Our dogs absolutely loved the wide open space to run and explore, which made the trip even more special. One of the highlights was the lovely pond on the property, full of fish and a great spot to sit by and enjoy the surroundings. Highly recommend this place for nature lovers and pet owners alike!

The cottage was lovely with much care to all guest needs. The location was very lovely in the forest. We hope to make it to the winery in the future but didn’t have time this trip.

Loved this place! One of my favorites so far! So cute and clean and perfect amount of room.

Didn’t have to worry about the accommodations so we could enjoy getting together with family.

Loved our stay ! The baby goats are so cute and Caprae is amazing. We will definitely be back.

They’ve made a fabulous apartment out of part of the pole barn, and it was a great place to stay. Very close to our friends, so perfect location for us. The game room had the most comfortable chairs, and the kids loved the foosball and air hockey tables! The king bed was super comfy, well stocked kitchen. The shower was very small, but plenty of hot water. Well stocked kitchen. Peaceful, quiet surroundings. Overall a great stay!

This place was so realxing. Lots of space for our family to spend time together but not feel like we were crowded. We had 6 adults and 2 small children and never ran out of hot water. Looking forward to returning.

The location is great. It is about 10 minutes from Garden of the Gods. It is in the middle of nowhere, and we didn't have a cell signal starting about when we were 20 minutes from Nathan's place. Keep that in mind because I didn't have access to the listing or address. Thankfully, I had written the address down, and I remembered the check-in instructions (barely). We couldn't find the address anywhere on the property (it may be there, but we couldn't find it), so we worried that we were at the wrong place. The house is clean and spacious. We weren't there for long. Just long enough to sleep and then go hiking. We went to Shotgun Eddy's for dinner. It was about 25 minutes away.

Our family loved the place so much and definitely coming back!

10/10, one of the standout airbnbs I’ve stayed in. Definitely the most helpful hosts. Emma’s guidebook that was provided upon booking helped us plan our trip. Everything was clean and stocked with what we needed. Braxton and Emma went above and beyond and installed a firepit prior to our arrival after we inquired about one. If you’re going to Shawnee Forest, book this spot!

Great place to stay. My group and I enjoyed the scenery, and the cleanliness and space of the house. Beautiful place, will definitely be staying here again.

This was one of the best stays my family and I have had! The barn itself is beautiful, but what my boys enjoyed the most was the property. We got lucky with a beautiful 50° December day. We walked the trails, threw rocks in the pond and went on scavenger hunts. Highly recommend staying here!

Beth was very communicative before and during our stay. The house was nicely decorated, and furnished clean and exactly as we expected. I appreciated that we were able to leave without starting laundry, dishwashers, etc. The kitchen had a lot of useful utensils and supplies. We didn't do much cooking, but we could have easily prepared most anything we wanted. The beds and furniture was very comfortable. There were plenty of games and activities to do at the house; we did not utilize the community rec areas, but that was only due to our own agenda and time limitations. My only recommendation would be that blackout curtains in the bedrooms would have been greatly appreciated. I was up at 5:30am some mornings because of light pouring into the bedroom on the main floor.

John and Valentino went above and beyond to make sure that we had a great stay! We had extra bags and were permitted to drop them off early at the house before check in which made our traveling much easier. They were very responsive with any questions we had and super friendly. The house itself was gorgeous and there was so much attention to detail. We would 100% stay at John and Valentino's house again and it was an incredible stay!

Once again, they are the best! I’ve stayed at Mary and Ryan’s other places and this one just as amazing as the rest!

This is our the second time our guys have used the Cross Family Farm. I have heard nothing but good from them. Thanks for letting us use your house!!

This is a very homey place, we felt very comfortable! It's like a slice of the county in a well developed area. Huntley Road was not as congested as I expected, we had no problems getting into or out of the property. Ollie was so friendly and responsive with any issue. I hope we can stay here again! It's a good value for the area. We come to the area fairly often and have stayed at many other places. This one rates in the top three, especially for the price!

Diane was very respectful of our privacy and friendly while communicating with us! The goats were a delight to see and feed. And the property was beautifully laid out. Would highly recommend staying here!
