Cozy Cottage On The Shawnee Hills Wine Trail

Getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life at the Wine Country Cottage. Located just one mile away from Blue Sky Winery, we are located in the heart of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail. Spend a couple days or a weekend exploring the award winning wineries, shops and restaurants along the Trail! The wineries and small towns that house them are gearing up for some great outdoor events and music!

Enjoy tastings, music and friends at the wineries, a gourmet dinner at The Brick House in Anna or breakfast at the Iron Whisk in Cobden! Food and music at Blue Sky, Feather Hills, Starview, Owl Creek, Alto Pass, Von Jacob, and the Peachbarn Wineries. The Makanda Boardwalk is always a fun experience and Cobden has a very nice antique shop to browse! Or, just kick back and relax on our beautiful countryside property.

Our quaint cottage on 29 acres offers a private and serene getaway along with freee range chickens and 2 barn cats ready to greet you. We are conveniently located 1.4 miles from Blue Sky Vineyards, 2.9 miles from Feather Hills Vineyard, and 5.8 miles from Starview Vineyards!

Fantastic cottage!

I stay in many, many similar places over the years, and I have never stayed anywhere with such a well-stocked kitchen as this! There was a crockpot, good blender, and even an air-fryer! Scissors, ground coffee, olive oil- this kitchen has it all! We had a blast!

Pic Trip

Large rural home in a quiet pasture like setting with two car garage. It was well stocked with good equipment and had freshly ground Starbucks coffee in the fridge. TV streaming service but no internet at this time. The location was great for a visit to Giant City Park. The basement had a full pool table, TV and comfortable seating,

Great Weekend Getaway

We stayed here for a girl’s trip weekend to enjoy Southern IL wine trails. This house exceeded our expectations! Lots to do when we were at the house including a hot tub, playing pool, and loads of games available. It was clean, comfortable, and had a great location. Highly recommend and will come back in a heartbeat!

Perfect Getaway

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary in Shawnee Wine Trail. We were there back in 2012 and came back in 2023 (way too long of a gap if you ask me). The cottage was adorable and had everything we needed. It is a perfect little getaway and close to wineries.

What a lovely cottage on such a beautiful and peaceful setting with so many extras. We enjoyed the hot tub, the chickens, fresh eggs, the deck, as well as a game of pool and darts! The host is beyond kind and the home has a very welcoming vibe and a great location. We will be back.

Beautiful!

Though the point of a cabin getaway isn't to be connected to the internet, it was really disconcerting to not have access to the wifi as we had no phone service! It was a great place for our mini honeymoon! Clean, uncluttered, and stocked with everything you need!
