Guest Reviews
- Kongmeng (10/5): - Very comfy cabin and Awsome location. Costumer service was amazing. Will definitely come back.
- Lachanbrielle (8/5): - The cabin was what was needed, a small get away. I will say I expected the views to be better. Also, just make sure to do your research, because I thought that the hot tub would be included in the cabin I stayed in. But was sadly mistaken. Overall the stay was good and very relaxing though.
- Roy (8/5): - The cabin was nice really clean the only thing I didn’t like is that it wasn’t secluded two other cabins were really close to each other they could see where our outside area was and we could see theirs. I would book again only if I could choose which cabin I wanted
- Suzanne (2/5): - Based on the photos and ads, I was so excited for my stay. When I arrived, there were bugs all over the sheets, which I chalked up to being surrounded by trees. But then the picnic table outside was covered with aunts (set a newspaper down and within 10 minutes it was just overrun). Later in the evening, as the sun was setting, the picnic table had 10+ cockroaches that then spread to the area surrounding the stairs to enter the cabin. Although the text number was very responsive, they did not provide any accommodation to the fact that I did not feel comfortable spending the night.
- Ivan (10/5): - cozy place
- Karen (10/5): - The whole experience was amazing thank you
- fabiola (10/5): - A super cozy place to go and forget about the city for a bit.
- Cynthia (10/5): - Really loved my stay and all that was included with my stay. It was quiet, peaceful, secluded and I could really relax. Everything was clean and ready to use. I wish that Postcard did a better job of communicating what was provided in the cabins so that I would not have overpacked and brought too much! Overall it Was amazing and it felt like camping without all the work!
- Mary Lou (10/5): - Large window beside the comfy bed made me feel as if I was sleeping under the stars!
- Valeria (10/5): - Nice
- Deysi Michell (10/5): - Is so nice
- San (10/5): - Awesome experience
- JUAN (10/5): - It’s The beautiful place !!
- Mohammed (10/5): - View and cabin were beautiful. A little bit smaller than I expected but really well done. Perfect for 1-2 nights away
- Stacy (10/5): - Nice to enjoy quiet, and get away from daily life. We wished the fire pit are was a little larger
- Edgar (10/5): - Great Time Will Definitely Come Back In The Fall
- Gena (10/5): Family Fun - What a fun way to end our family road trip and to enjoy the Starved Rock area. Our family enjoyed our tiny cabin experience, the s'more kits were a hit as we sat around a camp fire. I hope to visit a Postcard Cabin again some day.
- maryann (10/5): - It was very clean, easy to find and very very quiet. The service was excellent and there were many extra surprises ( firewood, ingredients for s’mores, a lantern) it was a wonderful stay
- Jessie (8/5): - Very nice and piece full.
- Hannah (10/5): - So cute, clean, and well done! Stayed cool even in >90° heat outside. Perfect little getaway.
- Dan (8/5): - It was small and quiet, like I had envisioned. However, the shower had leaked water onto the floor for quite some time and you could see the spots where mold was beginning to grow. As well as the bathroom had the mositure problem, there was a colony of carpenter ants that had moved in. Otherwise it was fine place to stay. I would try to stay on one of the cabins closer to the river if i stayed again.
- Dalia (10/5): - I like location and
- Adam (10/5): - Fantastic getaway. Feels secluded, isolated and special
- Nicholas (10/5): - Great tiny home. Beautiful area near Ottawa downtown with lots of dining and outdoor activity options
- Kubanychbek (10/5): - Here’s so quiet and safe all houses far away from each other i can highly recommend you to visit this place and take a rest from busy and noisy city
- Syed (10/5): - nice place
- Angie (10/5): - OMG i loveee everything, I would recommend it 100%
- Janice (10/5): - Love it
- Verified traveler (8/5): - There were ants inside of the cabin. The floors were dirty upon entry and the ants made sleeping difficult. The bottom step going up into the cabin was also broken, creating a tripping hazard.
- Shamya (10/5): - We really enjoyed how the staff always checked in on us and how comfortable we felt in the cabin! Everything was wonderful and we look forward to booking again! Only thing is the utensils needed and extra wash but that is fine!
- Candice (10/5): - Great property. Very clean. And great customer service
- Cindi (10/5): Fun Stay for 2 nights - This was a cute little place to stay in a remote wooded location. It was a little small for 4 adults but would be perfect for 2 adults and 2 kids. It has 2 bunks, Queen on the bottom and double on top. It has a nice fire pit for roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. There was plenty of firewood and starter for two nights. The kitchen had essential items to eat and cook. Beds were comfortable and air conditioner worked well.
- yazmin (10/5): - By far one of the best Glamping experiences I’ve had. My children had so much fun and our Family dog enjoyed it even more. Very comfortable and cozy at the same time and best part the A/C was amazing after enjoying the hot weather. Will definitely be coming back.
- Cindy (10/5): - The cabin was all it said it was. Quiet, well stocked, A/c worked great, loved having a shower after hiking in Starved Rock. Nice get-away. Would do it again.
- Francisco (10/5): - Amazing
- Paula (10/5): - The postcard cabins are very cute. You did a great job with space.
- Abegail (10/5): - I loved our stay in the cabin. Thank you! ☺️
- Amanda (10/5): - Such a unique experience and will definitely be back! My husband and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary and wanted to do something different. Postcard Cabins exceeded our expectations!
- nia (10/5): - It was a dream! If you like the outdoors peace and quiet clean accessible well thought out we will absolutely come back! Loved it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- Adam (10/5): - It was a great stay! The location was perfect, the property was well set up and clean. Definitely will be returning for a longer stay some time soon!
- Eleni (10/5): - Such a beautiful little getaway! Host was amazing and we will for sure be coming back
- Traci (10/5): - This tiny home was great! We enjoyed our own fire pit and the amenities that went along with it!
- Arturo (10/5): - Staff update you through text messages, which is easier in case of problems. Room was clean and welcoming. Please be aware of your surroundings! 2 raccoons took our marshmallows lol. It was fun
- JONI (10/5): - They are postcard sized, so what they advertise is what you get, which was perfect for me. I took a cabin just for a couple of days alone time with my puppers 🐶I could not have found a better place, and I will definitely come back. I do wish they had a mini microwave in the cabins, and I would suggest bringing an extension cord, because I could not find an outlet near the beds to charge my phone. As I travel with an extension cord, it was not a problem. Enjoy.
- Abhinav (10/5): - Very good experience
- Garima (10/5): - Great place to visit
- Reem (10/5): - Very cool experience -- loved the design of the cabin and the things provided were so thoughtful.
- Queta (10/5): Tranquility - My experience was amazing. Very quiet and serene. I was able to be in alignment w/ living a healthy, wealthy, abundance life. This getaway won't disappoint. My only advice will be to give yourself time to enjoy lounging by the fire pit. All fires have to be extinguished by 10pm.
- Heng (10/5): - Love it! Leave with full energy. Will comeback soon.
- Anna (10/5): - Quaint little cabin, with everything you really need. Pack light, and enjoy the fire and quiet. Really lovely stay!
- Rea Jesyka (10/5): - Love it here. Very quiet and peaceful.
- Anabel (10/5): - I liked the place, but it was difficult to find my cabin, but everything else was 10/10, I recommend it.
- Chakila (10/5): Well worth it - My stay was amazing! I was kind of skeptical at first because it’s out in the middle of nowhere and i didn’t check in until after 8. But once i arrived, everything was perfect. It was peaceful and well worth the drive. Also, i appreciated the fast response when needed from them. I’ll definitely be returning.
- Davonda (10/5): Small but just right - It was a great time. I was hoping to see some birds while there and it delivered. The cabin was really nice and the peace and quiet was what we needed. The privacy was a plus.
- Paulina (10/5): - We enjoyed our time in the cabin - loved that it was dog-friendly and all the amenities! We will definitely be back!
- E. Tracy (10/5): - Everything was fantastic for our girls trip glamping!
- norman (10/5): - Amazing!
- DANIELLE ANNE (10/5): - loved everything about it: nature, peace and quiet plus the snow = perfect!
- Tai-Yu (10/5): - 所有都很好但是就是熱水有點不太夠
- Avis (10/5): Great get away place - It was a great experience. The cabin is quiet in a wooded area but close to town, should you need anything. It is also conveniently located by three state parks. Great place for outdoor activities! We did tons of hiking and it was really fun!
- Tanya (10/5): - Came here with my husband and six year old son. We had a wonderful time disconnecting from the city, work, and everyday hustle and bustle. It was the perfect getaway, not too far from home, which was a 1.5 hr. drive from Chicago. Although it was a tiny cabin, it was more spacious once inside. My husband is 6’2” and he was able to sleep comfortably. We will definitely be back!
