Prairieview Cottage Retreat - Hot Tub Sunsets - Sleeps 8
REST, RELAX, RETREAT... Are you longing to get away from the grind and unwind in the quiet countryside? You will enjoy this beautiful, pet-friendly cottage retreat in its peaceful setting where you can watch sunsets from the hot tub, enjoy sitting around the firepit on the patio or simply relax inside. You will be in close proximity to 11,000 acre Lake Shelbyville, the heart of IL Amish country and the Little Theater, the only professional theater between Chicago and St. Louis.
The Space As you enter the front door, you will immediately notice the open and inviting floor plan of this cottage, coupled with a modern farmhouse decor. The dining and kitchen area, with its farmhouse table (which expands to seat 12), kitchen island and coffee bar, is spacious enough to host a small retreat, cozy enough for a small family dinner and intimate enough for a couple’s getaway.
The Kitchen The kitchen features a refrigerator with a drink dispenser and an ice maker, a dishwasher, an oven/range that has convection capabilities, and a microwave. It comes fully stocked with dishes, utensils, glasses, cups, silverware and cookware for all your eating and cooking needs. The coffee bar features a Regular and a Keurig Coffee Maker. Complimentary coffee is provided.
The kitchen opens up into a comfortable living room area where you can relax on the large sofa and dual reclining loveseat and watch a movie or game on the 55” smart TV. There is also a DVD player, movies and an electric fireplace available for your enjoyment.
Where You'll Sleep Two Bedrooms feature queen-size beds and a third bedroom has 2 extra-long twin-size beds. These beds can be pushed together to make one large bed if desired. For additional guests, the living room also has a queen-size sleeper sofa. There are convenient charging ports on both sides of the queen-sized beds for your electronics.
2 Full Bathrooms Both bathrooms feature spacious walk-in showers with glass doors and come stocked with plenty of plush towels for your stay. In the second bathroom, you’ll also find a convenient laundry area, with the toilet and shower elegantly set apart for added privacy and ease.
Outdoor Patio Area You will enjoy sitting outside on the patio around a fire watching the sun go down, listening to the night sounds or relaxing in the hot tub, a guest favorite. Outdoor patio area features a firepit and a table and chairs under a pergola with lights strung on top. A charcoal grill is provided for the avid grillers. So whether you are grilling a steak or enjoying a good old-fashioned hamburger, we've got you covered. Charcoal and wood are provided. At the end of the day, you can relax in the hot tub and watch the moon and stars. You may even hear a horse and buggy go clip-clopping through the quiet night or hear a distant train whistle blow. The hot tub area is complete with a fence that provides a wind break as well as a bit of privacy.
Prairieview Cottage Retreat is located along a main highway but is set far enough back from the road that you will still enjoy privacy and won’t be bothered by traffic noise. You will be surrounded by grain and hay fields, have access to a small pond and at night you can hear the sounds of insects, bull frogs and owls. The owners live on the property, but a row of trees separates the main house from the cottage so you will have your own space to enjoy.
Close proximity to Prairieview Cottage: -Lake Shelbyville boating, fishing & hunting -Lake Shelbyville 65 miles of hiking trails -Aikman Wildlife Park -Village of Arthur (heart of Amish Country) -Little Theater on the Square in Sullivan -Okaw Valley Orchard (in season) -The Great Pumpkin Patch (in season)
Other things to note This cottage has no steps and has a wide entrance so is perfect for handicapped individuals.
Prairieview Cabin is across the driveway, close to the pond. There may be guests staying there as well so we just ask that you be respectful of their privacy.

The property was fantastic! The place was super clean and amenities were top notch! We were “home” for Thanksgiving and the space was great for our stay and we had plenty of space for family to come visit us! One of my favorite VRBOs! The coffee bar was also an unexpected surprise!
The cottage was bigger than I expected from the photos but just as beautiful. Having two full bathrooms was great. The kitchen is large and updated, and the beds were all comfortable. The cottage is quiet and peaceful, and the hot tub with outdoor lights is a great place to relax.
This is out second stay here - the last time was at Christmas. This time I got to enjoy sitting out on the porch drinking coffee in the mornings. Very nice and peaceful stay!
Wonderful home within close distance to Sullivan marina. Great setup for a family vacation. Plenty of parking for our cars and boat trailer. We enjoyed our time together. My kid’s loved the hot tub and daily visits from the puppy. We will definitely book again next year!
Absolutely Perfect Stay!We had an amazing experience at this property from start to finish! The home was spotless — easily one of the cleanest rentals we’ve ever stayed in. Every room felt fresh and well cared for, and the attention to detail really stood out.The amenities were top-notch — everything we needed and more. The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were super comfortable, and the hot tub was the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day. It was such a relaxing, peaceful setting that we didn’t want to leave!Communication with the property owners was excellent. They were friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay.If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, and relaxing getaway with great hosts and an incredible hot tub, this is the place to book. Highly recommend — we can’t wait to come back!
This was everything described and more for our short trip. We loved the location and especially the furry visitor! Highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a peaceful getaway!
Loved the rental! It is in excellent condition and the location is centrally located making it a convenient drive to Mattoon or Decatur. Sunsets were beautiful across the open fields. Will definitely be looking at using this location for family visits in the future. Thank you so much!
The house was lovely, clean and well stocked. We enjoyed the relaxation, early morning coffee on the porch and watching the wildlife all around the property. We will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful sisters weekend! Location was perfect for everyone to meet. Third year at this location. Best little secret tucked away. Good food, good laughs, good times! We will be back next year!
We really enjoyed our time at this property. Very clean and beautiful home. Every one of us was amazed when we walked through the door. A cute perk was Chase the dog visiting us!
This location was absolutely perfect for a peaceful and relaxing weekend! The sunsets were beautiful!
The cabin was exactly as described and I instantly felt at home.
The owners live nearby and were available if needed.
The kitchen and bathroom is well stocked. On our drive home we talked about hopefully being able to rent the cabin again in the future.
We wanted a nice quiet spot away from 4th of July fireworks. It was a cute little place. Very dog friendly. Very relaxing. Sullivan Bakery had really good doughnuts.
One thought - there were no covered or locking garbage cans inside at all. A dog-friendly property should have those to keep dogs from potentially getting into something they shouldn't.
This is a beautiful new home complete with all the amenities. Everything was remembered when setting up this home. The hot tub on a starry night is incredible. Plenty of towels are provided too. You won’t find such a great home anywhere near this area. Visit Aikmans Wildlife Adventure and the nearby parks for hiking. Fireworks in Arcola are a huge deal and shouldn’t be missed if you’re here around the 4 th of July. Watch from the hot tub!
This property was absolutely great all around! The open space, clear sky with the sunset and stars, as well as the silence and privacy was perfect coming from the city. Check in was very easy and communication from the owner was super quick and responsive before and during the trip as well. The fire pit and hot tub did now disappoint! Many house items were also provided. Heads up for any dog owners with reactive dogs, there is a very sweet and friendly outside dog that roams the property. He was not a bother at all, but make sure to communicate with the owner in case your dog is planning to spend time outside. Would very much recommend overall!
