Family weekend

We were in town to celebrate a family engagement and this house accommodated us beautifully with all en-suite bedrooms. We weren’t there much but were able to sit on the screened porch a few times and really enjoyed that.

Beautiful house

This house was spacious and tastefully decorated. We especially loved the decorated Christmas tree and holiday decor throughout! We had a slight plumbing problem on Thanksgiving, and Pete promptly had a plumber out in less than an hour! From reservations to check in to check out, the process was flawless. We all enjoyed our stay.

Family Christmas

We had a wonderful stay at this home. Such a nice bonus that it was decorated for Christmas and we felt so at home with all the attention to detail. We loved the opportunity for some to be playing games downstairs while others played games upstairs. All the bathrooms made it feel like we all had our own space. We will be back.

Incredible weekend, Fantastic House

My wife and I, our four kids and four grandkids did a ski weekend and stayed in the Galena Territories. This house was the best! Having a bathroom in each bedroom was a very nice convenience. Everyone enjoyed sitting in the spa outside with snow on the ground.The owners were friendly, easy to connect with and were are super responsive when needed! Already planning an adult golf weekend and will be back in this house if it's available!

Sibling Weekend

My siblings and I had a wonderful stay in Galena. The house had plenty of room for the 8 of us. We enjoyed the screened in porch and the fire pit. It was only minutes away from Galena. For a larger group like ours we found it very nice to have larger beds and numerous bathrooms. Pete was very responsive to our inquiries as well.

Friends getaway!

Layout of home was great!! Loved each bathroom per bedroom. The huge table was a plus for eating and games. We’ve been getting together with this group for 25 years, first time in 22 years without kids. Probably one of our favorite homes we’ve stayed at.

We had such a great time staying at this house. The setup was perfect for 4 couples. Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom which worked out great. Pete and Laura were awesome to work with and very accomodating. Would for sure stay here again. Beautiful home in a beautiful location. Thank you!

This house is spacious inside and out. The floor plan makes it easy for people to comfortably enjoy their stay whether together with family and friends, or away from the group. The property is expansive and in a great location. The owners are responsive/invested in making sure their guests meet or exceed their expectations.

Perfect for our needs

Having bathrooms for all bedrooms was so helpful. The fire pit was enjoyed by all. We were amazed & happy to see so many stars in the sky…it’s peaceful there & you feel like you’re a million miles away. The two upper decks are great for watching our guests using the large yard & fire pit area. Everythjng you need is there. So restful. Plenty to do or relaxing to do nothing.

Made for gathering

This is a wonderful house. It’s spacious yet feels cozy. Plenty of room for everyone to gather on the comfy couch while enjoying the fireplace or watching a movie. The extra large dining table works great for shared meals. The kitchen is functional and well equipped. Bedrooms all have en suite baths which is a bonus. ( comfy beds too). Huge outdoor space circles around a fire pit. Hot tub is a fabulous amenity.

Great long weekend

A great property. The home is spacious and very clean. We like to grill and cook and appreciated the large gas grill and well stocked kitchenware. Everyone was comfortable in the large kitchen, dining and living room...and then retreating to their own bed and bath at the end of a fun day. The large lawn and fire pit were great for young and old alike. Many amenities of the Galena Territory are within a quick drive.

Wonderful Stay at The Galena Getaway

After years of staying at the same house in The Territory, our family simply outgrew our accommodations. Searching VRBO we found a house that looked like it fit our needs, and we were correct! Pete and Laura are wonderful hosts and good communicators, the house exceeded our expectations-it was very clean, had things like plenty of pots, pans, silverware, etc and especially sharp knives (and a knife sharpener!) and the fire pit was wonderful (fire pits are one of our requirements.) Our entire family voted to return to the Getaway next year!!

Great place to stay!

We rented this house as a group of 5 girls with their kids ages 7-11. We loved everything about it. It was so close to the pool and basketball hoops. The house was clean and had enough space for our whole group (11people). The hot tub was clean and the we loved the big fire pit. The hosts were very quick to answer any questions and very helpful. We didn’t know Galena had so many flies and gnats, so next time we’ll bring some things to keep the bugs away. We will definitely rent this house again!

Great place for our family of 8 adults!

A rainy weekend didn’t stop us from having a great time here. The kitchen had everything we needed as stated in the description. Our family of 8 adults was able to all eat and play games at the dining room table. We spent lots of time in the game room playing pool and foosball! We even used the hot tub in the rain! Everyone loved having their own bathroom with their bedroom. The owners were very responsive to all of our concerns.

Beautiful location, Great for a group

Our group of 7 had plenty of room in the house and appreciated that each bedroom had an en suite bath. We enjoyed the many games, pool table, and foosball in the house and were able to comfortably sit at the table ( with dining chairs for up to 10). We didn't use the hot tub because it was uncovered outside and the weather did not cooperate! The location is beautiful and a local taxi service was able to pick us up from the house. My only small complaint was the lack of cooking oil in the kitchen, which I would consider a basic necessity of a kitchen in a rental house.

Beautiful home with great hosts.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Laura and Pete Papanicolaou's VRBO home in Galena, IL! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that they are exceptional hosts. First off, their responsiveness and hospitality were remarkable. When our coffee maker decided to quit on us, Laura and Pete didn't waste a moment. They sent their property assistant over right away with a brand new coffee maker, ensuring our mornings started off perfectly. The house itself was a dream. Spacious enough for our group of ten, it offered both comfort and elegance. We spent hours shooting pool, playing games, and gathering around the inviting bonfire. Galena itself proved to be a charming destination. We explored the quaint downtown area, indulging in local shopping and dining. The fall festival was an absolute highlight, adding an extra layer of fun and festivity to our stay. In summary, Laura and Pete's VRBO home in Galena provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable getaway with friends and family. Their attentive hosting, combined with the beauty and amenities of their property, made our stay truly unforgettable. We can't wait to return for another incredible experience!
