Oakridge Manor, Creal Springs

Waiting patiently on the northern edge of the Shawnee National Forest is the Oakridge Manor, a perfect retreat for relaxation and recreation. Down in this rugged area of southern Illinois, man takes a back seat to nature.

Never-ending hiking trails through the numerous state and national parks are just the beginning – rock climbing, fishing, and wine tastings are also available. Innkeepers Anna and Bob Bordenave are eager to make your stay a memorable one. After a gourmet breakfast on the patio, cool off in the outdoor pool. Well appointed guestrooms have modern amenities and sumptuous queen and king beds. Take a load off with some fresh home-baked cookies – the perfect send-off to a day spent conquering the great outdoors.
