Great and Convenient stay!
Close enough to the highway and close to tons of greater-Columbus activities. The Polaris mall less than 10 minutes away and surrounding area has lots to do. Easton mall is also just a short drive. The Cinemark movie theater is amazing too, it has great seats. The property itself was very clean and welcoming. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting, especially compared to staying in a hotel.

Cute bungalow!
The bungalow was very clean and stocked with everything we needed to have a great weekend! It was nice to have motion lights on the stairs at night, and it was close to Polaris area and Alum Creek which was very convenient! Would definitely stay again!

Family gathering place
We needed a place to stay that was comfortable to catch up,because the three of us live in three different states . We didn't plan on cooking , so we had all we needed. It was a beautiful setting and close to conveniences, even though it felt remote. Sleeping was comfortable, housing very attractive and we would love to come back

Beautiful Space
We enjoyed our morning cup of coffee (supplied by our Host) out on the deck. The inside is beautifully decorated, adequately supplied, and the bed was very comfortable! The entrance steps are steep and a bit tricky for older folks like us (60’s) but overall we had a PERFECT stay!

Galena Getaway
If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely be staying here! Our time here was very short lived, as we really only utilized the house to sleep, but we absolutely loved the time we did spend here. Everything was so cozy and elegant, and the hosts were so accommodating. 10/10!

Great place, great hosts
We truly enjoyed the property - a beautiful setting, close to everything, hosts were very responsive to all our inquiries, and the welcoming set-up was so unexpected and appreciated. They set up the bonfire to perfection and allowed us to connect with family in a wonderfully relaxed environment. Every detail was thought out and anticipated, from the Keurig and coffee bar to the bottled water that greeted us. The stairs to access the apartment are on the steep side but the views are so wonderful. There's a private sitting area on the elevated deck overlooking the yard.

Enjoyable Galena Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed the property and our time there. Clean, comfortable, and fun. We would've liked to light a small fire in fireplace but couldn't get that going for some reason. You are close to many things to do there which is nice for options. I loved the updated decor, coziness, games and coffee bar. Thank you!

Until Next Time
We came for the funeral of a beloved family member, and are finding comfort in the simple luxuries of the "Getaway". Our hosts have been most kind and shown their care through every little detail. They have gone the extra mile to ensure our comfort. I hope too have the opportunity to visit the Peaceful Getaway again under happier circumstances. Until next time, Liz
