Fun For All Ages!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Nest. We were celebrating my parent's 60th wedding anniversary and had 21 guests ranging from 9 months to 84 years old. There is an abundance of activities for all age ranges to enjoy. My 84 year old father even gave the tree swing a try! The weather was perfect for enjoying the beach and the younger kids loved all of the beach toys on hand. There seriously is no shortage of anything from kid-friendly toys to adult games. The house was clean and well appointed with an extremely well-stocked kitchen. We loved all of the outdoor seating areas and multiple decks. We had a blast and the host was incredibly accommodating, answering every question in an extremely timely manner. We would highly recommend this property!

Great home for relaxing and enjoying the water
This place was great for an out of way, relaxing vacation. They absolutely have EVERYTHING available that one could need. Outdoor grill, coffee makers, canoes you can use. There’s table tennis, life jackets. The small private beach is perfect for kids or adults to just relax and play in the water. Do note, that to get to the Walmart or other larger stores is like a 30 min drive and best to do it in the daytime, as most of the small roads that u will take are not lit.

Property was well maintained. The place can accommodate infants to adults.
Once we arrived there was something foot everyone. The property had choices an enjoyable beach, dock for pontoon, swings and hammock, fire pit, yard to play ball and hoop for basketball. We enjoyed it all. The kitchen accommodation was amazing for our group. The porches were roomy. I believe at least three balls went down into the tree slop perhaps into to lake. The toilet positions were interesting a couple of them wouldn’t allow the door to close when sitting.

Great Weekend with Extended Family
Our extended family loved this property. We have stayed in several VRBO's in Southern Illinois, and this by far has been the best one. The kitchen was well stocked. Having beach toys and beach towels, as well as adult outside games was an extra bonus. We LOVED this property, the property managers were accommodating and easy to work with. We will definitely be back.

Great for families
The Nest was a perfect get away for our families. The private beach provided a safe and great way for everyone of all ages to enjoy the weather and water. The home provided more than amble seating for dinning and relaxing both inside and out. The description of the home was very accurate to what the home provided. We were able to rent a boat through Stay N Awake rentals that allowed us a boat to be docked at the house all week and was well worth it. We would highly recommend the Nest for any large family gathering.

Wonderful Home for a family Vacation
Our family rented this beautiful home for a family vacation to celebrate my mothers 80th birthday. We loved having our own private beach and enjoyed kayaking on the lake. The water temperature is perfect, it is not too cold and not too hot. Very refreshing on a hot summer day. We played endless outdoor games during the day under the fans located on the ceiling of the deck. We ate every meal but one at the house. The house is well stocked and clean. Great trip, I would recommend highly.

Awesome “fam-damily” vaca 2021
The property was beautiful! Every need we had was fulfilled. So easy with check in. Loved the basement area for our kids (ages 8-15). The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, flatware, top quality pots & pans, crock pots, even a margarita machine! So much beautiful outside seating, and the deck swings made from twin beds were awesome (a couple people are stealing this idea), huge BBQ grill. We had a boat and everyone had so much fun tubing & skiing. The bedrooms were very all very nice. Linens were top quality. The kids in basement did complain that the bunk beds squeaked if someone moved around on them. Thank you!

Didn’t want to leave
We had a group of 12. Plenty of space to be together. Large tables and plenty of comfortable furniture. Lots of deck space and covered deck area with fans to help with the heat. For the location bugs weren’t bad. Not even a bite on me and I get bit all the time. Rented a pontoon and went tubing on a nice lake with hardly any traffic. You can do what you want. Stop the boat and anchor and jump in the water! The beach at the property is very nice and we spent hours just floating in the cove. Water temp is very warm. At least 82. I hate cold water and had no issue with this. ( I keep my pool at 87 at home). Great grill and fire pit. Lots of dishes, cookware, etc. Great baths and showers. Never ran out of hot water. Lots of ceiling fans which are great for temperature regulation. Kick butt central air. The only slight negative is the internet connection. I didn’t have too much of an issue as I made a point to not work! If you are heavy streaming or downloading large files you will probably be frustrated. If you are checking emails and streaming some YouTube you should be fine. I was. Techies may complain. Cell reception is good so that is an option. Greenville is a nice town with everything you may forget. Some interesting sites. Lots of cornfields! Staff is very responsive to any questions.
