Hello, I’m Allison Hasler!

I own Southern Illinois Vacation Rentals along with my amazing husband Mike. We’re dedicated to providing Midwestern city-dwellers like Chicagoans an unforgettable experience in the luscious landscapes of Southern Illinois. Our rental properties in Southern Illinois celebrate the uniqueness of lake living without sacrificing the expectations of modern luxury. Warm showers, quiet sunlit living spaces, Instagrammable scenery, and consistently reliable wifi are all musts that each of the one-of-a-kind properties we manage deliver for our guests.

The travelers we usually meet are Chicagoans craving a non-touristy place to enjoy the outdoors. Our charming communities in Southern Illinois are a short roadtrip from Chicago and offer travelers an experience the city can’t: naturally occurring quiet. The kind of peacefulness that city-dwellers have to shut their windows and pull out their noise cancelling headphones to achieve is all around us down here. This is a type of comfort that Southern Illinois locals seldom take for granted and are proud to share. We absolutely love knowing that our guests truly leave here truly more rested than when they came.

For our aforementioned Chicagoan who craves a change in pace we suggest Lakeview Landing for an amazing getaway that includes sweeping views of Lake of Egypt, a 7-person hot tub, two kayaks, an office for those impromptu Zoom Meetings, and much more! Large enough for a fun family vacation, a group of professionals seeking a lakeside weekend, or a solo-traveler who appreciates stunning views.
