Modern Pond-View Cabin Near Lake of Egypt

10/10 Excellent

"The property was SO peaceful and refreshing. My mom and I had a wonderful time so much so, that we didn’t want to leave. I especially love that we were close to town and everything we needed was right near our cabin"

Comfort Inn & Suites Marion I-57

10/10 Excellent

"We stay at this specific location in Marion at least 4 times per year as passing through on way to family. We are always very pleased with the room, facility and breakfast. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and an excellent stop over location with a Walmart next door in case we forgot anything and lots of restaurant options."
