Cell reception on our property is spotty & there is no way to know until you get here. We offer free guest wifi in our office to use for something quick (ie. check e-mail or look for things to do in the area but we do not allow people to sit in our office all day on the internet). We also do not allow kids to sit in here on it. We understand that some people need it for work or school and that's fine.
Our property is host to 17 cabins in varying sizes. Spacious and well equipped, these Illinois cabins are spread throughout 65 acres of beautiful wooded landscape on a bluff above the Vermilion River. Catering to large family reunions or a quiet, romantic getaway for 2, we are one of Illinois’ premier cabin rental destinations. Whether you’re putting together a family reunion, needing a family vacation cabin or just a romantic weekend getaway for two, Kishauwau Cabins has what you are looking for.
Each cabin rental comes equipped with basic pots, pans, cooking utensils, and dishes in the kitchen, a covered porch (most with porch swings), a personal outdoor fire pit, an indoor wood stove or gas fireplace (for wintertime use only; contact us for details), and much more.
Cabins in Illinois That Allow Dogs
What would a vacation be without everyone’s favorite family member? We welcome your dog with our four dog-friendly cabins on property.
We simply ask you read our pet policies listed under each dog friendly cabin in the “Cabins” tab or contact us prior to your trip.
Each dog will add an additional $20 plus tax per night to your reservation. Simply list 1 or 2 dogs in the pet field when booking on-line and the system will add the fee for you. I do ask that you notify me in e-mail that you have read and are fine with the policies as we are firm with those.
