About this property

The Lodge at the Ranch - secluded but close to Galena and golf.

  • Fabulous private manor house on 500 acre working cattle ranch and commercial vineyard adjacent the Galena Territory in a secluded and private pastoral setting and valley w no other houses within view and in the heart of the Galena Illinois driftless region. Close to the renowned golf courses of Eagle Ridge (less than a five minute drive to The General), Long Hollow Canopy Tours zipline and a ten minute drive to the charming historical town of Galena. No pets.

    Pastoral, private setting among centuries old oaks, offering indoor and outdoor seclusion and relaxation. Private 1/4 mile long driveway leads to The Lodge. Large outdoor fire pit with Adirondack chairs and rough-cut limestone block seating overlooking the ranch, valley and creek below, on a hill among the oaks above and a short walk from The Lodge. Contemplate and relax at the lily pad covered Koi pond and waterfall located above The Lodge. Entertain on large outdoor patio and screened-in sunroom overlooking the valley and creek below. Night sky perfect for star gazing. BBQ on massive wood burning/charcoal grill. A poker/bumper pool table is in living room and horseshoes are in the paddock below the house. Huge gourmet kitchen with granite counters, 6 burner gas range with griddle and double oven, KitchenAid microwave, KitchenAid warming drawer/slow cooker, Ninja Foodi, Marvel professional clear ice cube maker for perfect craft cocktails or for your favorite beverage, two full sinks, large island, and three large granite countertop food prep areas. Great venue for weddings, family gatherings and small corporate retreats. Pick your own wine grapes when in season and take an adventurous hay ride through the ranch, weather permitting. Check with host for cost and availability for each of these amenities. The grapes from the vineyard have produced many gold medal wines. made by Galena Cellars including the 2019 Governor’s Cup award for the best wine produced from Illinois grapes, sparkling Frontenac Gris.
