Beautiful Spot!

We came to Galena for a girls trip and this place was beautiful and in a really relaxing spot! It worked perfect for us and I appreciated the large fan in the bedroom too! We’d definitely stay again!

Perfect Stay

The house had everything we could have needed for a small getaway with some of our family. Clean, comfortable, stocked, and nice touches like a sound system that was easy to play your own music into via bluetooth. Definitely would stay again!

You would think you’re not in Illinois. Beautiful home & location. 15 minutes from downtown Galena. Ample home. Cleanliness could’ve been worked on but we booked within a two day notice.

Stayed for half marathon

We stayed here for half marathon in galena. Location is good. They could use more pots/pans, blankets/towels, etc. It was pretty bare bones and not enough pans to make our dinners each night. Very clean and comfortable otherwise.

Family Reunion Getaway

The property was just perfect for our stay. The layout worked well. The bedroom on the main floor worked well for someone unable to do stairs. Each bedroom having a bathroom was also helpful. We did clean the coffee pot with some vinegar and water mixture. It was running slow.

Great Place

I knew from other reviews to pack extra blankets for the basement and plasticware for my kids. And I'm glad I did. My kids loved playing on the bunkbeds and climbing the stairs and playing cars on the hearth. If you have napping kids- you may want to bring black out curtains. The kitchen is tile so be sure to pack slippers to warm your feet if traveling in the cold months. The neighborhood was quiet and we enjoyed the owners club amenities. I would recommend this place as it would be great for a friend gathering as there was more wine glasses than coffee cups.

Quiet Escape

The property was as advertised. The location was quiet and perfect for our extended weekend. The fireplace worked well and we used it quite a bit. There was plenty of space for our kids to spread out and they enjoyed the games in the lower level. Each room having a bathroom was a major plus. We cooked in the home on most days and had plenty of dishes, pots, pans, etc. to do so. The basement was quite cold, but based on other reviews we came prepared with extra blankets. The view from the private balconies was great and included a group of wild turkeys running through the wooded area! We throughly enjoyed our time in the home and will be back. We go to Galena every year and this home has by far been our favorite.
