Private cabin between Mississippi/Illinois rivers

My place is close to St.Louis. You’ll love my place because of the location, the outdoors space, the ambiance, and the tranquility. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, or someone wanting some privacy and looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city. The cabin is secluded and very private and you won’t be able to see other homes. This is not a subdivision or a neighbor hood dwelling. You are in the boonies. Our guests especially love the star gazing.
