Luxury Home in a Resort-Like Estate

Please NOTE: The Estate Pool (shared by all our guests) will be closing on September 6, 2022 for the season. Pine Manor Estates boasts 12 Guest Homes and the Vinson Guest House is one of the homes just added. This charming colonial style, two story home has a large front yard and a fenced in back yard with private patio. All four bedrooms and two baths are located on the second floor, including the Master Suite. This home is ideal for the family who wants to get away and experience seclusion while being close to everything! Our Master Suite features a luxurious king bed and a sitting area for two. An ensuite bathroom with a shower and tub is just steps from your bed. The view of the lake from the bedroom windows is an added benefit. There are three additional bedrooms on the second floor that boast queen beds with luxurious mattresses and bedding. These three bedrooms share the additional bathroom. Guests of Pine Manor Estates find the Vinson Guest House exceedingly warm and charming. The office that looks over the back patio is a guest favorite and provides the perfect space if working remotely. A full laundry room is available so you don't have to worry about running out of fresh clothing. Guests are free to take a stroll through the Estate or rent a golf cart to buzz around. Walkers and runners enjoy the privacy and the local-traffic only streets. The Pine Manor Estates staff is available when needed, but never intrude on guest privacy. Our goal is to make your stay relaxing, refreshing, and memorable. When staying at the Vinson Guest House, you will want to be sure to see all that Southern Illinois and the Shawnee National Forest have to offer. Whether you want to visit one or several of our 12 local wineries or be more adventurous and try the Shawnee Zip Line through the forest, there's something for everyone while staying here. Giant City State Park and the eclectic town of Makanda are just minutes away. Drive through the park and experience the breath-taking beauty of the Southernmost Illinois rock formations or grab a picnic table and enjoy lunch by the creek. For the more adventurous, try your hand at rock climbing or walking the paths of the rocky terrain. And don't forget to stop in the shops of Makanda where local artisans never fail to disappoint. Some other must-see locations include Cedar Lake, Garden of the Gods, Kinkaid Lake, Burden Falls and so much more. Whether you love hiking, fishing, hunting, bicycling, horseback riding, or simply relaxing, Southernmost Illinois has something for everyone!
