Its really is a Happy Place
Truly enjoyed our stay. We didn't get to enjoy all the amenities in Flint Ridge because of the weather, but it was still a great place to hunker down for a cold weather weekend. Cozy and quaint with everything you need. Scottie was tremendous at communicating proactively and responding quickly. Only thing I'd mention was wifi was a bit spotty (both TV and smartphones), which was a bummer since we were doing a lowkey weekend, but it was serviceable. Overall, a wonderful stay and will consider coming back in warmer weather to enjoy more in the area!

The best stay
The vacation home was exactly what it was advertised to be, with comfortable space and well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. The owners have done an excellent job providing little spots of interest and ample outdoor areas for enjoying the view.

Happy, Quiet and Peaceful!
Had just about everything we needed. The place was a little secluded and dark when the sun went down but we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We utilized the kitchen a couple days and everything worked out great. Drove around and checked out the beautiful scenery which we enjoyed. We plan on returning.

Very comfortable property, all the ammenities, pleasant, homey, quiet, peaceful all come to mind. Easy to get in and easy to leave. We would love to come back. So close to the Illinois River is a bonus. Surprisingly good dining at the Harvest House in Kansas, Okla. too! Thanks for a great time.

Clean well maintained getaway
Cabin is nicely decorated and has just about everything you need to fix all your meals. Time on the deck was relaxing watching the deer and squirrels in the woods. The heated and cooled sunroom was great for those chilly mornings! Scottie was very responsive! We had some trouble getting the gas logs going, Scottie was there in just a few minutes and got us up and running. Would definitely recommend!

Love the location especially the deer!! Wasn’t to found of the resort and the way they handled things but that has nothing to do with the owner but u still have to deal with the resort if u swim and or decide to float with them. The owner Scottie was always very prompt in replies and very understanding ! Will definitely love to stay again but will choose other places to float and or swim etc…

Great Spot!
Clean, relaxing and comfortable stay! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and woah never expected to have three bathrooms in this place! The reading nook and deck was my favorite though...next time I am bringing a book to leave behind. Every bed, chair and couch was comfortable and we loved that we could have our pet with us, as well. She enjoyed barking at the wild turkey.

Last minute get away
Contact with the property owners was prompt. We were a little disappointed with the nonstop traffic in front of the house, as it distracted from the solitude of the place. The description of the interior of the house was accurate and quite pleasant. The sunroom was enjoyable, especially during the first two days of the stay as it was quite windy outside. The security to enter the resort was excellent! Future people looking to stay here should be aware the amenities of the resort are unavailable (except golf) in the off season. Thankfully there are several parks and nature conservatories near by to enjoy in the off season.

Loved the trip. Loved it! great cabin, nice resort. Wish the weather had been warmer so I could have enjoyed the deck more. it really was just about perfect. actually, it was perfect, cabin is just what we were looking for. you are in a resort, and have to live by resort rules, but the cabin owners are nice and relaxed. And the cabin is remote, no one near by. just perfect.

Peaceful Getaway
This was the perfect place to rest and relax for the weekend. We enjoyed nature walks, fishing, and best of all - just hanging out on the deck or in the sunroom listening to the sounds of nature. This cabin makes the most of the space and we had plenty of room. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.
