Traveling were my wife, teenage son, and me, and the property fit our needs perfectly. It was nice and clean, and abutted the woods. We rarely use VRBO, so the check in process was a little cumbersome for me, but quickly got the hang of it. Would highly recommend to any group of three or four seeking to visit Galena and/or Galena Territory.

Our house was a perfect getaway for the 4 of us. The location in the Galena Territory was in a very beautiful scenic area. We enjoyed Thunder Bay Falls and walking the paved path right by our house to and around the golf course. We even enjoyed games at the Owners Club. We did not use the inside pool at the Owners Club and outside pool was closed of course. All in all it was a great place to stay
