Description:
Hidden behind dogwood, redbud and sweet gum trees, the Old Bethlehem School Cottage is an out of the way retreat in the Metropolis area in beautiful Southern Illinois, "America's Best Kept Secret". It is set at the edge of Shawnee National Forest (pictured below), with
scenic views of the hills in the forest.
Out of the way, but easily accessible (1/2 mile from IL Hwy. 145), it is located 15 miles north of Paducah, Kentucky, home of the Museum of American Quilters Society (MAQS) and the American Quilters Convention. It is 13 miles northeast of Players Island Casino in (Superman City), Metropolis, and 5 miles south of Dixon Springs State Park.
Come and rest; explore the surrounding woods and meadows; study the wild flora and fauna; or just sit on the deck and watch the deer... pass through the meadow at sunrise and sunset. Deer and turkey hunting rights are available to 250 acres nearby. Pet accommodations are available upon request. Limited camper hookups are available.
The Old Bethlehem School is a one-room schoolhouse, in which classes were actually held until the mid-fifties. It features three bedrooms, one bath, a large, fully equipped, eat-in kitchen, and living room. The pot-bellied stove of the old school days has given way to the cozy comfort of central heat and air conditioning. The entire schoolhouse is yours as there is no separate bedroom rental. See the links below for more information.
