We had a few changes to our travel plans and Patti was very quick with a response and offered advice to help us. We had a great time and the space seemed small but felt large. Tons to do in the area as well.

Shawnee National Forest

The Tinley House was perfect for our long weekend in the Shawnee National Forest. The house was a cozy little stay. Beds were comfortable, but a little low to the floor. Convenient to Garden of the Gods, but a bit further from the Wine Trail. A nice alternative to staying in a motel.

Tinley House in Harrisburg, Illinois

Tinley house was a comfortable clean get-away that was a great place to relax after exploring the Shawnee National Forest in Southern Illinois. Hiking in the Garden of the Gods was the highlight of our trip and we appreciated the Tinley house when we were done because we could cook our meals and enjoy watching t.v. Thank you for this lovely quaint home-away-from-home!

Squatch Fest guests

We really enjoyed our stay; we came to town to see what the Squatch fest was all about and enjoy the Shawnee National Forest. The house was adorable just like the real Tinley for whom the house is named after. There were even coffee and snacks! Thank you!

We were there to visit Garden of the Gods and other hiking. It fit our needs perfectly and was exactly as described. The hosts provided the "and then some" treatment to make our stay special including cupcakes for my birthday and a bone for our foster dog.

Welcoming

I and a brother found The Tinley House impeccably clean and comfortable. Dave and Patti are gracious hosts, supplying much appreciated snacks and coffee. Being bikers, the garage was frosting on the cake. Whenever I am in the area overnight again, I will check out the availability of The Tinley House first. Thanks Dave and Patti!
