Owl Creek Vineyard
Vineyard/Winery
Category: Cobden Recreation in Illinois
User Rating: 
Description of this Illinois Activity: Owl Creek Vineyard is a small winery and vineyard operation owned and operated by family and friends. The winery was founded in 1995 and produces a variety of wines, from dry barrel-aged red wine to late harvest dessert wine. The wines are unique, distinctive and have won many medals since the winery was founded. In 1999, the dry red, Owl’s Leap 1997, won two gold medals and the Best of Show award at the Illinois State Fair in Springfield. All grapes used to produce Owl Creek wines are grown in Southern Illinois.
The winery offers free wine tasting year round and a small gift shop. We host several wine festivals and other events every year. Mayfest is celebrated Mother’s Day weekend and Octoberfest on the second weekend in October. We have also begun to host a Grape Stomp in June. We do not serve food but, picnic tables are available around the vineyard and winery for those wishing to bring a lunch or snack or you might wish to just enjoy a glass of wine on the back deck. There are about 4 acres of vineyard surrounding the winery, producing about 60-70% of the grapes used to ferment the wines. The vineyard is beautifully nestled in the heart of the Shawnee National Forest giving it a unique charm and welcome feel.
The winery is located 15 miles south of Carbondale and 7 miles north of Anna. It is just a short 2 ½ mile drive, heading east, up Water Valley Road from U.S. Route 51. We are also just 4 ½ miles south of beautiful Giant City State Park, just off of Giant City Park Road. We are within 10 miles of several B&B’s, numerous hiking and biking trails and lots of antique shops. The winery is also part of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail, a series of 5 wineries within 25 miles of one another offering the best wines Southern Illinois has to offer.
Wine is sold by either the bottle or glass. We are open Wednesday-Sunday 12-5 p.m. from May-December and Saturday-Sunday 12-5 from January-April, or by appointment. We are closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas, New Year’s Day, and Easter.
