Visiting the dog park can be a joyful activity for both you and your furry friend—but aggressive encounters can quickly […]
Harpole’s Heartland Lodge is a serene dog park located in Nebo, IL. While detailed amenities are not explicitly listed, it offers a welcoming outdoor space for dogs and their owners to enjoy nature and exercise.
I have been here several times. If you are outdoorsy, this is your place.
The lodges were filled with renderings of wildlife. Lots of room and cabins to rent for a large party.
Food appears to be locally farmed raised/grown. Meals are fresh and delicious. Always more to eat than one can handle.
Staff is very friendly and very helpful.
If you are here for a conference, the internet is a bit slow. Cell phone signal is weak, but it you want to get away from all that, come here.
Have hunted upland birds there for two seasons. Can do put and take but have large established populations so can hunt the wild birds. Always good guides and dogs. Tim Neuhauser was great guide for both a teenager and a senior (me) and has super dogs. Both times took novice hunters and perfect place for first bird hunt. Staff friendly and helpful and lodge hostess always brightened up the room
Just completed my Whitetail deer hunt and it was amazing, the lodge, staff and food were all great. The staff was professional and accommodating and the meals exceeded my expectations. The beginning of our hunt was slow due to warm weather and very high winds however our guide Lou worked very hard to ensure we had every opportunity to harvest a deer. Lou is extremely knowledgeable of the property we hunted and helped me experience the hunt of my life placing me where I saw numerous deer which included many bucks and 4 big shooters. I would highly recommend booking a hunt and request Lou as your guide.
Drove 5 1/2 hours so a few guys could do the trails on atv. Trails are good but everything else was extremely disappointing. Few people were polite the other’s not so much. Stayed in the Original Lodge some doors didn’t lock or locked you out of cabin. I understand places have rules but the rules there are worse than a hotels. We felt like we were being watched constantly. Now if people have to be out by 11am please tell me why we were woken up by 8am with people coming in knowing we were there and on top of it the KICKER not even close to 11am we start getting our things together and see your employees THROW ALL OF OUR FOOD OUT. Also you want guest to do a list of cleaning though some of the employees didn’t even finish their job. One swept and left a pile I ended up cleaning it up! The beds were comfortable but showers not good either. Tub drained slowly so as your showering with a poor shower head your also standing in some water because it’s not draining well. The toilet goes down slowly. I understand again cleaning up after yourselves that’s common sense but to want GUEST to also empty the trashes take them out and the lists continues is a bit much especially when you have employees who “clean”
Absolutely amazing get away! We are returning guests and stayed in the new cabins which are extremely comfortable and beautiful, well equipped, quiet location. We highly recommend the breakfast and our service by Janet and Krystal was top notch!! In addition to 4 wheeling, we enjoyed walking the property, playing bags, and relaxing in nature. Highly recommend this slice of heaven!!
