Cute Cabin
We were in the area for only one night and wanted to avoid a hotel stay. Found this cabin and were able to book for one night stay. Cabin is cute, cozy and had all the amenities we needed! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Peaceful Retreat
In town for a couple days for work... Little Slice of Heaven was a million times better to come home to at the end of a long work day than any hotel in the area!!! The quant cabin nestled by the pond was the perfect peaceful retreat to decompress at the end of those days! I will definitely be booking with Crystal again for my next travel stint to the Marion Illinois area!!!!

Amazing!!
My husband and I and our two young kids booked this beautiful cabin for the 2024 solar eclipse. Check-in usually isn’t until 3pm and the eclipse was closer to 2pm. Crystal was amazing to work with and allowed us to check in early. It was truly the perfect place to watch the eclipse and just enjoy some unplugged time in nature.(WiFi worked great- we just wanted to spend all of our time enjoying the outdoors!) I cannot recommend this place enough!
This was a cozy place in a quiet area. Thank you so much.

The cares melted away.
My husband and I enjoyed the rural setting with the convenience of Marion’s historic downtown square only minutes away. Roger and Crystal responded to our questions and were so helpful with suggestions for area attractions and restaurants. Don’t miss The Vault and Bennie’s restaurants. The Garden of the Gods Observation Trail is breathtaking and is about a 45-minute drive away. The cabin is efficiently laid out, has inviting decor, and is very clean. We would stay here again.

We LOVED staying at “The Little Slice of Heaven!” It was a perfect weekend getaway for two, and only 20 minutes from the Shawnee Wine Trail. Highly recommend!

Perfect!
We needed a place for a quick overnight and after arriving, we wished we would have booked for a second night. The cabin and outside surrounding were wonderful. So neat, clean, and just right for us. The space was calm and relaxing and lended itself for great conversation.
Crystal was very responsive when I had a question before booking.
We arrived late in the evening but when we woke up, we took a walk around the pond. The doe and her fawn came out to play! What a delight!
Thank you! Hope to return again!

This was a small cozy cabin. We were alone, however it was closer to town than we thought. The stay was nice and the cabin was very clean. Would stay again.

Excellent . The deer around there enhanced the experience. The co-0wner Roger was there for a water
leak and informed us about keeping the door closed. I loved the fact that it had keyless entry. The decor was so
cute. The shower was so adequate. Everything we needed
was there. If not, just within a mile or so was grocery and
anything else.

Above and beyond.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Host thought of so many ways to help us feel comfortable as well as providing whatever we could have needed to enhance the experience. Beautiful. Peaceful. Absolute pleasure.
Charming cottage, very pleased! Very comfortable and welcoming!
Highly recommend this cottage and we will be returning. Attended my son's graduation from SIU-C and it was only a 20min drive. Will definitely return to see the wineries. Only wish we could have found this place 4 years ago :)

Took my wife here so we could reconnect after some uncontrollable events took hold on our life.
This place was amazing. Beautiful scenery, adorable cabin, and amazing weather made it a treat.
The hosts were great people who thought of everything someone may need to stay somewhere.
Leaving here was harder than anywhere else we’ve ever stayed at, it’s just that special.
We absolutely will be returning.
