About this place

Relaxing Retreat: Hot Tub, Hot Cocoa, Fire Pit, Movie Night with Popcorn, Games

Wake up to sunlight filtering through the trees and deer grazing just beyond the porch swing. Deer Run Lodge Log Cabin offers that true “cabin-in-the-woods” feeling guests describe as peaceful, storybook quiet, yet only minutes from Yorkville’s restaurants, shops, and outdoor adventures.

Whether you’re soaking in the 7-person hot tub, sipping coffee from the over-the-top coffee bar, or playing a few games on the regulation size pickleball court (with Sport Court surface), this spotless, thoughtfully designed cabin makes it easy to relax and reconnect.

NOTE: Property is shared with other guests. A shared Sunroom connects the two buildings and is the only indoor shared space. Log Cabin has its own deck and hot tub that is not shared.

The Space
*Guests consistently call the cabin beautiful, clean, cozy, and modernized without losing its rustic charm. It comfortably hosts up to 6 guests across 3 king bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms.
*Living Room: Spacious electric-reclining sectionals and a Roku TV that swivels for perfect viewing. Reviewers loved stretching out here after long days exploring.
*Kitchen: Fully stocked with stainless appliances, quartz counters, spices, seasonings, cookware, and a coffee bar that also has tea and hot chocolate with Keurig, kettle, and coffee grinder—guests rave it has “everything you could possibly need.”
*Dining: Seats 6 at the table plus 2 at the island.
*Bedrooms: Three upstairs king rooms with blackout shades, ceiling fans, and extra A/C units. Guests praised the beds as “super comfy.”
*Bathrooms: One on each level—main with a shower, upper with double sinks and a tub/shower combo.
*Laundry: Washer, dryer, detergent, iron, and board included.
*Comfort: Central air and heat plus a wood-burning stove (ask before use).
*Clean & Fresh: Guests repeatedly call the home “spotless,” “pristine,” and “meticulously maintained.”
*Porch: Rocking chairs and a swing—a favorite morning-coffee spot while birds sing.

Shared Sunroom
A climate-controlled sunroom connects the Log Cabin and Guest Quarters. Guests describe it as “peaceful and relaxing” with comfy seating, Roku TV, a game table, and windows that frame the woods. You’ll also find puzzles, books, classic arcade and outdoor games like corn hole, Flicken Chickens, Spike Ball and Ring Toss.

Outdoors
Step onto the deck to grill dinner, soak in the 7-person hot tub, or gather around the fire table beneath the trees. A nearby fire pit and gazebo (both shared) are waiting for you to get together to share your stories. Deer, chipmunks, foxes, and colorful birds are regular visitors—guests love how close to nature they feel.
On-site, enjoy a regulation-size pickleball court—a surprise hit with guests who say it makes it hard to leave the property! This court is shared with any guests who reserve the Guest Quarters.

Minutes away you’ll find:

Raging Waves Waterpark
Fox River & Marge Cline Whitewater Course for kayaking and tubing

Good to Know

*Age Requirement: 25 + to book.
*Booking Guest must sign rental agreement within 24 hours of booking.
*Verification: ID check via Truvi (formerly Superhog) within 24 hours of booking.
*Security deposit is required.
*Parking: Shared driveway—fits up to 5 vehicles depending on size.
*Safety: Top stair tread is shallower; mind small children near railings and wood stove.
*The last 0.3 miles of the drive in is on a dirt road. Due to some sections of that road only being 1 lane wide and the pot holes that develop after a rain, you will want to drive slowly and be ready to yield to oncoming traffic. The circular driveway is paved.

Available only when outdoor temps allow—please confirm with host.
Wood Burning Stove Package costs $99 for lighting and cleaning. $45 per cart of wood.
Package must be ordered at least one day before arrival.

If you’re looking for a clean, cozy, nature-filled cabin retreat with all the modern comforts—hot tub, fire pit, pickleball, and coffee bar included—Deer Run Lodge Log Cabin is your getaway in the woods. As one guest put it: “Everything was perfect—we’d definitely love to come back!”
