About this property

Owl's Nest is a perfect getaway in the woods with lakes nearby. Pet friendly!

  • Owl's Nest is located in the Crab Orchard Wildlife Refuge. With a large open living space this perfect for family and friends! Just blocks away is a boat ramp for Devil's Kitchen Lake. Great fishing, hunting, hiking and kayaking are all minutes away! I can't forget to mention the wonderful wineries that are within 10 minutes.

    No need to leave your best friend at home, furry friends are always welcome! We have a huge backyard for them to enjoy.

    Black out curtains in the three bedrooms are perfect for sleeping in. The trundle bed in the living room with its twin bed on top and a second twin that pulls out is great for kids.

    A short 15 minute drive will get you to Carbondale or Marion for all you shopping needs. A variety of restaurants are located in both towns.
