Kishauwau's Cabins Offers Black Friday Bargain

Just 7 miles from the gates of Starved Rock State Park, Kishauwau's Starved Rock Area Cabins bring guests closer to nature, while providing all the amenities of home. Kishauwau's 17 cabins are spaced out far enough to give guests privacy and a sense of wilderness seclusion, while still only being a short drive from some of Starved Rock Country's best attractions. Most of Kishawau's cabins back up, or are incredibly close, to the woods that surround the site. Several of the most popular units sit next to the beautiful Vermilion River, that winds along the northeastern end of grounds. Various cabins can host anywhere from a single couple, popular for anniversaries and getaways, to 14 people, for larger groups and family reunions. There are even four dog-friendly units, so you won't have to board Fido during your vacation.

One such dog friendly model, The Winnebago Cabin, that can sleep up to 3 adults (or 2 adults and 2 children). Like all cabins at Kishauwau's, it features a covered porch, grill and a personal outdoor fire pit. Take in the serenity of nature from the included porch swing, or play some lawn games in the generously-sized yard that surrounds the cabin. All of Kishauwau's cabins are four season units, capable of keeping guests comfortable all year round. The central air systems make the cabins very comfortable during the summer. For the colder months, all cabins include furnace heating, as well as indoor wood stoves or gas fireplaces, ensuring a cozy temperature in even the fiercest of Illinois winters.
