"We very much enjoyed the Sassafras’s cabin! Clean, well appointed with dishes, pans etc. they even provided coffee. Centrally located in the Shawnee Natl Forest, we were only 8 minutes away from great hiking, The Garden of the Gods and more. While there are other cabins nearby there was plenty of privacy. Very quiet place to enjoy a fire pit and decompress. We will absolutely be back for another stay. "

"The worst part of this place was leaving. Everything was just perfect….decor, landscaping, cleanliness, layout, amenities….we just can’t wait to go back! It was so nice and relaxing! The pool??….in southern Illinois, that was the cherry on top! Loved it! "

"Hosts were great with accommodations and easy to communicate with. This property was a great place to stay when visiting Shawnee National Forest."

"The location was perfect to the surrounding National Forest trailheads. Garden of the Gods. The cabin was updated with good amenities. The cabin we stayed in was nearby a hornets nest. But other than that, the stay was accommodating and the memories created in the forest was ever-lasting. Thank you for the hospitality."

"The cabin was exactly what we needed. We enjoyed our stay. "

"Beautiful, nicely located, and well-equipped cabin! Very clean and easy to access. Our only issue was with the European hornets when using the hot tub at night. They were not aggressive, but really liked the light. "

"This barndominium is ideal for big groups! Our company utilized this spacious home for 4 weeks and it was more than accommodating. It’s well within distance of garden of the gods and close enough to neighboring towns for exploration. 100% recommend this spot! The host is great."

"HIGHLY recommend this property! My partner and I arrived at Timber Ridge during a week that the Garden of the Gods Recreation Area was closed due to construction. We arrived at the check-in business and quickly saw that they had instructions on alternative ways to access the area. The staff is very knowledgeable of their surroundings, and the information included in the cabin's tourism binder gave you pretty much everything you needed to know about trails, restaurants, and other landmarks to explore during your stay. As for the cabin, it was stocked with everything you would need to be comfortable and take care of yourself during your stay. The kitchen has a wide array of utensils, you could easiy bring groceries and feed yourself or grill outside and make sides. There were cleaning supplies, plenty of sheets and towels, and options to keep yourself either cool or warm. Hot water and strong wifi to use the internet or work the Roku TV. The layout is very intuitive, plenty of space for a couple! As for the service, it was superb. On our first night, we found a wasp nest on the wonderful porch swing by the front door. Once we called, it took less than an hour for them to be in touch, send one of the owners to the cabin, treat the wasps with soapy water, and get rid of the nest altogether. He was also extremely friendly! Overall, an excellent experience that we WILL repeat to see more of Shawnee National Forest. "

"It was in close proximity to where I needed to be the next day. "
