Illinois : locations de maisons de vacances en bord de lac

I used to live on Vandalia Lake, so I knew what to expect from the location - but the house is much nicer than pretty much anything else you'll find in Vandalia. It was the perfect place to spend the weekend while celebrating my granny's 82nd, and it's very likely we'll rent it again in the future, assuming it remains available for that purpose. The main living/kitchen/dining area is wide open and great for hanging out without feeling cramped, and the screened balcony/patio is a lovely place to enjoy the outdoors without being forced to "enjoy" the bugs. Everything is light, airy, modern, and well-maintained. This isn't one of those listings where the photos look great and the reality is worn and dirty - what you see is what you get.

A beautiful location and a perfect home for a large group. Our gathering of nine had plenty of room to spread out and we all appreciated the wonderful hot tub. Nearby Fox Lake offers a nice selection of restaurants and places to shop. It seems like this place is six minutes from everywhere. We greatly enjoyed our long weekend and hope to stay there again.

Absolutely Loved our stay!! There aren't enough good things to say about the view, location & beautiful house. So fun! There's a pool table, air hockey & 2 free standing video games. Spent every sunset in the Lakeview room😍 Just gorgeous beyond words! Did i mention the Bald Eagle that hangs out in the tree right outside the Lakeview bedroom? Incredible! the lake doesn't freeze over in one spot in front of the lakeview window, saw all the big birds of prey hunt. It was definitely wildlife at its finest. The owners are Very responsive & told us to be on the look out for the eagle! Fantastic time! Loved Loved Loved it & already reserved for our Wedding weekend❤️

Anabelle’s place was great! It had a lot space, very clean, beautiful view and surroundings and very comfortable. Anabelle was very friendly and responsive. Would recommend and would definitely book again!

An idyllic spot! Beautiful, peaceful and exactly as described. We would love to return when it’s warmer and take advantage of everything there is to do at their home on the lake. Highly recommend!

Luci's place is absolutely adorable, like a dollhouse! Very well located, right on the river, very pleasure experience. Thank uuuuu so much for sharing your place with us.....

We came into town to ski at Wilmot and this house was a perfect location. Super close to restaurants and shopping and less then 10 minutes to Wilmot skiing. House was equipped with everything you need and Jeffery was awesome with communication. Would recommend to anyone.

Great place to stay for a long weekend. Very comfortable and had a great wrap around deck and views from the loft of Peoria Lake. Would stay again if the opportunity arose.

It was a nice stay. The home had everything I needed. The view was awesome! Nice and private property. Just what I needed to get away and clear my mind. The kids loved the chickens, all the deer we saw and most of all the giant bean bag! Would definitely stay again. Thanks Oscar

First time back in Southern Illinois since graduating SIUC in 2016. This trip did not disappoint. I wanted to show my fiancée the area I went to school and never stop talking about. We enjoyed hiking, kayaking, wineries, countless other outdoorsy activities.

We had a great stay at The Nest on a snowy, winter weekend. House was as described in the listing. Comfortable beds/pillows and living area. We loved having the hot tub and shuffle board table. The driveway is pretty steep and our car had trouble getting up while actively snowing, but luckily there is space for parking at the top of the drive. Overall, wonderful weekend and host.

Very responsive and such a cute place to stay. We will be back!

Quite a neat place for a getaway.

I had an incredible stay at Wanda's house! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The home was exactly as described, even better in person—spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect for the wedding we were attending that weekend. I especially loved how cozy and convenient it was. Wanda went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, providing flexible check in/out times, ample snacks, and an abundance of amenities to help it feel more like home. Communication was smooth and prompt, and helped with everything we needed. I highly recommend Wanda's place to anyone looking for a relaxing and cozy stay in Wonder Lake! I can’t wait to come back.

Our stay was absolutely amazing. Photos do not do this place justice its absolutely beautiful. Additionally, this was a fully stocked kitchen trashbags, paper towels and coffee it was so nice not having to run to the store immediately. The layout is awesome and the lake view is gorgeous. Will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend.

We came to this beautiful lake house to watch my son graduate from Navy. Basic training. This was the absolute perfect place and environment to celebrate. The sailors get a couple days of liberty and this home was the perfect place for them to come and relax and unwind. The kitchen was amazing. It has everything you need. I cooked pasta and chicken Parmesan for a good size group of them. The downstairs space was just enough for them to relax and laugh and share stories of their time together. Larry was amazing and in constant communication. Don’t even hesitate to stay here pick this place. I promise you will not be disappointed. I even left a few items by mistake at the house and Larry was quick to let me know that he put them right in the mail. It truly felt like I was staying at a family members house. We also utilize DoorDash and you have lots of options I ordered groceries and things like that.

Platypus Hills is a superb retreat! The home was perfectly equipped, clean and so comfortable! Danielle, Susie, Nancy & Dawn are perfect hosts! Available and friendly but respectful of your privacy. The setting is idyllic and provided me and friends a peaceful and relaxing get away that left us refreshed and re-energized. Just loved our time! Thank you all!

Great place to stay, beautiful views, very clean and comfortable, high speed internet, definitely will be back!!! Very easy to communicate with owners, always responded within minutes, I can say only positive things about our experience!!!!! 😊

My kids and I loved our stay here. Very roomy main bedroom on main floor. Thought the one bed looked like a tiny futon in pictures but seemed much bigger in person and we all slept comfortably in room with plenty of space for our stuff. Upstairs room had a cool loft my kids loved. Everything was clean and easy to find. We had fun canoeing across to the park and back. Beautiful view outside and nice porch seating. Only 8 minutes from Walmart and close to other stores and food. Would definitely stay again!

The place continues to be a peaceful retreat while visiting a chaotic family. We always check for this location first when planning a trip to the area.

Lots of space- was perfect for a large family gathering. We loved the decks, large yard and all the space inside. Beautiful location with lots of hikes short distances away.

Shawn place is the Greatest in my eyes. Have stayed many times and will be back.

We enjoyed our stay at Lake of Egypt! The home is beautiful with very thoughtful decor which made us feel right at home. There is lots to do in the surrounding area (great state parks and outdoor areas) which we really enjoyed. Looking forward to coming again when the weather warms up, thank you for sharing your home with us!

We booked this place for a girls weekend and it was well worth it. Carlo was responsive to our questions. We were 12 girls and we all fit comfortably. Definitely recommend this place for a nice getaway! All of us really enjoyed our stay!
