From Mt. Vernon, Illinois take Interstate 57 South to Interstate 24 drive South on I-24 about 16 miles until you reach the Vienna Golconda Exit.

Take this exit and get on Highway 146 East for about a 1/4 mile, turn left onto a blacktop road 147 (across from golf course). Take 147 North till it ends and meets up with Highway 145.

Take Highway 145 for 6 miles and it will take you to Eddyville, Illinois. As soon as you top the hill and enter Eddyville you will turn Right or South on the Eddyville Blacktop and travel 1 mile to your second turn on your left.

The turn off of the blacktop will be onto a tar and chipped road named Old Home Church Road. This road is right over a steep hill so stay alert.

Drive about a 1/2 mile and take the first turn to the left. Lodge at top of hill on left.

At the lodge to use a cell phone you will need to drive about a mile up the road to Eddyville, to get a signal. If you do not have a cell phone please bring a calling card to make calls.
