Vacation rentals in Sangamon River

This is a must stay location!! Growing up in a farming family the opportunity to stay in a "silo" or grain bin as we call them was special. Joe has done an amazing job on the place!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Big Oak. Marnie and Brian were waiting for us in their Gator when we arrived and greeted us like old friends. As a mom of a leash reactive pittie mix, I reached out to Marnie and Brian before we booked to confirm that there would in fact be no other dogs around and if there was, they would be leashed. They were both very understanding, honest and responsive when I made these inquiries. The Cabin itself is so stocked its insane. Anything you think you might need, they provide it. Olive oil, salt, heater, dog towels, tampons, toaster oven, home made cookies, coffee. They just really want you to feel at home and you DO. They also have it stocked with chilling out activities... things like games, music, DVDs, a full bird-feeder to watch birds, a scavenger hunt. The land is really well taken care of and beautiful. We enjoyed hiking the trails and taking in the sights. Our dogs had the time of their lives. We cannot wait to go back.. We already booked!

Steve was absolutely wonderful! This is the first Airbnb I've stayed in since I moved to Illinois and I felt right at home. The cabin was gorgeous, homey, and had more amenities than I expected. Steve was friendly, courteous, and always polite. I will definitely be staying here again my next time in Springfield! Thank you so much, Steve!

We enjoyed our stay here. The house looked just like it was described in the listing. Everything was clean. The one level house was nice for my baby, who is crawling. The neighborhood is quiet, which was convenient for putting my 2 kids to bed at night. Amy was responsive to the questions I had and provided detailed instructions for check in and check out. It was a short drive to downtown Lincoln from the house.

This was our second time staying here and we loved it again! Great place for a weekend getaway! Thanks!

This was our second time staying at this beautiful house and they beyond met our expectations once again with great flexibility and beautiful communication throughout! We hope to come back again next year!

We stay here all the time. Look forward to staying again. Everything is on point.

The cabin was absolutely perfect! Tammy has thought of every detail to make the stay comfortable and relaxing. The setting is stunning—rolling hills and a peaceful lake backdrop make it ideal for reading on the porch, walking the trails, or just soaking in the view. It truly felt like a peaceful retreat. The cabin had everything we needed, and the nearby small town had just the right touches— coffee shop, pizza place, and a cafe. We would absolutely come back again!

My family of 5 spent 4 days in Kyle and Emily’s residence, which was amazing. The home had all of the necessary amenities, which was greatly appreciated. I found it very hard to leave the home at times, because it was so relaxing, from the beds to the reclining couch. I would definitely recommend this house if you are visiting the area!
