Fantastic getaway! My boyfriend and I were looking for a relaxing weekend away from the city and we got exactly that. The rustic whirlpool cabin was much bigger than anticipated and very charming. It offered a cozy fireplace, relaxing whirlpool tub & a great view of the rolling hills. George was very helpful and gave us a ton of recommendations for things to do. They also have a wonderful collection of VHS tapes and DVDs for guests to borrow while visiting, which we loved. We went during a cold/rainy weekend and it was still very enjoyable. We will definitely be back!
I must also add, in regards to the negative comment below, the hosts were incredibly friendly, accommodating and were always quick to answer my questions/concerns before visiting. Also, one of our friendly neighbors for the weekend was a dog (or a rather large puppy). It's a shame one would be quick to judge such a great place before giving it a try.
I planned a family reunion at Hickory Hideaway and it couldn't have been more perfect. The cabins were clean and comfy, the grounds were well kept and shaded. The temperatures were in the 90's but with all the trees there was a great breeze and we were able to spend all our time outdoors. George and Sherry are an amazing host and hostess. We never ran out of anything and they always seemed to be their when we had a question.
There are a few minor details I would recommend changing. The steps into the cabins are a bit high. There isn't much light in and around the pavilion. We actually took a lamp out from one of the cabins. And a pool would be a great addition to your already wonderful accommodations.
The icing on our cake was, as we were all pulling out, George and Sherry came out and said goodbye and thanked us for coming.
Now you don't get that at a chain.
Thank you, again, George and Sherry, for a wonderful reunion.
Very nice friendly owners. They truly care about the people that rent out their cabins. We stayed here twice, both times in the fall for a weekend just to get away from the hustle and bustle. Quiet, secluded area with clean cabins. Looking out the back of our cabin into wide open rolling hills you could see for miles upon miles. If you live within a few hours drive of here I recommend checking in for a weekend with your significant other. There's also a community fire pit that everybody sits around at night, have a few cocktails and just shoot the sh*t. Two thumbs way up.
We stayed here over Mother's Day weekend for a little getaway. Absolutely loved everything about it from reservation to check out. George and Sherry have created wonderful experience. The luxury cabin was clean, comfortable and had everything you could think of. It was perfectly located with short drives to Savanna, Galena and Monroe. We will highly recommend it to anyone and can't wait to get back.
Absolutely loved our stay here! Very private and beautiful location. Would definitely recommend and would love to return in the future.
