Monthly Rentals in Shawnee National Forest

This is a truly magical location that offers a serene atmosphere perfect for relaxation. It's easy to immerse yourself in the beauty of nature right on the property through forest bathing, and it's also conveniently located near state parks, as well as various food and drink options. Bonnie and Paul have created a stunning, private space where I felt completely safe as a solo traveler, knowing they lived nearby. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to return in the future.

Thank you Connie & Jack for a great stay! Their place is so cute and charming, hidden away in the Shawnee Forest. They are great at communicating throughout the stay and also did a great job communicating how to find their house (it’s definitely a little trickier if you’re first arriving when it’s dark!). Just an FYI for families of younger kids (not a negative for us), the room with the 2 smaller beds is on the first floor, and the primary king is on the second floor. We loved the chocolates! We also appreciated how clean and well stocked their place was. Perfect for a long weekend away!

I had a hard time checking in (my error, I was at the wrong cabin!) but host was super responsive and quick to help. As someone who is NOT a hunter (I'm pure city and vegetarian to boot), I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful and serene the property is, and our lodging was simply perfect for us. Hot showers aplenty (3 of us took our time within an hour) and clean as a whistle. Bison (?) walked by our lodging around 6a, and I sipped hot coffee while watching deer drink and play a short distance away. We hope to come back next time we're in your neck of the woods! Thank you SO MUCH!

We had a wonderful weekend at The Potel! The place is adorable and spotless. Simi thought of every detail to make your stay as cozy and carefree as possible. I would only suggest bringing a flashlight in case you need to go out to your car at night cuz it is dark out there- but also LOOK UP because there are a billion stars! It also faces west so there are beautiful sunsets sitting out front. Definitely planning to go back for another stay sometime.
