About this property

Little Moon Tiny Cabin | Lakefront at Lake of Egypt Welcome to Little Moon, your cozy one-room lakefront cabin tucked along the shores of Lake of Egypt in Goreville, Illinois. This tiny cabin is simple, peaceful, and perfectly placed right on the water. Designed for couples and flexible enough for a tiny family, it offers everything you need for quiet mornings, lake days, and evenings under the stars. Little Moon embraces true tiny-home living — compact, comfortable, and full of charm. The open layout features a comfy full-size mattress and a twin sleeper sofa for an additional guest. Large windows bring in natural light and beautiful lake views. You can enjoy the air conditioning on warm days or open the windows to hear the soft night sounds of the water and wildlife. The kitchenette includes a sink with running water, mini-fridge, toaster oven with griddle, microwave, coffee maker, and the essentials for preparing simple meals. It’s perfect for easy breakfasts before a day on the lake or relaxed dinners after hiking nearby trails. Inside, you’ll find a small bathroom setup, and just outside, a private outdoor shower — a guest favorite. Rinse off after swimming, then relax on the deck while your hair dries in the lake breeze. Step outside and you’re truly in your own little waterfront retreat. Little Moon sits on a lakefront lot with its own small dock where you can fish, watch jumping fish at sunset, or park your boat. Two small decks overlook the water, offering the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or stargazing at night. A firepit near the water invites slow evenings under the sky. For lake fun, a canoe, kayaks, paddleboards and paddleboats are available for your use, and you’re welcome to bring your own fishing poles — or use ours. Wildlife is part of everyday life here, from deer in the trees to birds over the water. Little Moon is pet friendly and includes WiFi for those who need to stay connected, though many guests choose to unplug and simply enjoy the quiet surroundings. Spa-La-La is available as an add-on experience, and if you’re traveling with friends or family, we also have other rentals nearby. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and perfect for walking or biking. You’ll be close to great hiking, biking, climbing, wineries, and Shawnee National Forest adventures. There is no public transit, so a personal vehicle is recommended. We offer self check-in for convenience and are available by phone or text if you need anything we are available to fix any issues. Little Moon promises simple comfort, beautiful water views, and a genuine lakefront experience. If you love tiny living and big lake sunsets, this peaceful hideaway is waiting for you. Red Roof Retreats includes multiple unique properties at Lake of Egypt — from lakefront homes to treehouses and tiny cabins. Many of our stays are within walking distance of each other, making it easy for extended families and friends to stay close while still enjoying their own private space. Ask us about coordinating multiple homes for reunions, celebrations, or group getaways. Located in Goreville, this cabin is on the waterfront. Shawnee National Forest and Ferne Clyffe State Park reflect the area's natural beauty and area attractions include Marion Cultural and Civic Center and Oasis Sports Complex.

    We had our 20th Anniversary trip at Little Moon cabin. It was perfect! We had a question and Kristi responded very quickly. My suggestions for future visitors who may say there is nothing to do around the cabin…We loved visiting Carbondale. We could have stayed at Confluence Books and The Thrift Shop forever. The people were so friendly. We also visited Makanda and enjoyed seeing parts of the Shawnee National Forest. We stayed for five days and could have never left the cabin. We enjoyed fishing from the piers. I really had a great time bird watching from the observation deck. I would suggest bringing your bins because the wildlife is abundant. There are deer everywhere!!! There are also kayaks, paddle boats, paddle boards, lilly pads, life jackets, etc. I would also suggest visitors go to the store before arriving, it take at least 20 min to get to the main road. We bought salad kits and ate them straight out of the bag. We made frozen meals for dinner. We grabbed some snacks, cereal, milk, sandwich stuff and we’re good. The outdoor shower was really fun!

    Sweet little cabin with waterfront access. Great place to getaway to and catch some fish. Woke up watching deer every morning off the deck.

    I’ve used this rental in the past. This time it was just me and my dog. The peace and quiet of rental is amazing. The hosts Kris and matt are wonderful! They made sure we were taken care if we needed anything. They are both super nice and friendly. The sight from the cabin is breathtaking. All around one of my favorite I will continue to book at!

    Nice! Great cabin experience. Although small but packed with great details that we appreciate the serenity, beautiful morning sunshine and amazing starry sky at night.
