Perfect Girls Weekend
We had a great stay here for a girls weekend in Galena! Plenty of room for our group of 6 and all of the amenities we needed for a fun and relaxing time. We loved hanging out in the basement game room and hot tub. Great communication with hosts- they called ahead of our stay to welcome us and answer questions. We had a low smoke detector battery that was chirping and they were super responsive and brought a new one quickly. 15 minute drive to historic downtown area. We’d defintely book again!

Amazing Cabin in Galena Territory
The house was just as described. Proximity to the owners club and downtown Galena was perfect. Great get away home for the family. Kids had a blast playing with the toys and enjoying the bonfire at night.

Nice place, great host, good location!
We enjoyed the spacious house and made use of the porches and patios on nice evenings. It was nice to have a family room without a TV to actually sit and visit while on vacation. The downstairs area was very nice and we especially liked the hot tub and pool table! The one thing we wished was better about this property was explaining how far it was from the owners club. We were surprised to find out it was not right there close to the house. It was a very nice place to stay, enjoy a couple meals each day as a family, and most importantly relax!

Wonderful Getaway
We enjoyed our stay in this Galena home. The teenagers and adults really enjoyed the ping pong table and arcade game. Plenty of room for all of us. Check in process was easy and upfront communication was great. Two suggestions, based on our family preferences only, would be to add a TV to the main floor living room. We enjoy cooking together while watching sporting events. Secondly, a couple of the beds were firmer than we prefer. Neither items were issues… only suggestions. Thanks!

Wonderful home and extremely nice property manager
This is a house with everything!! Beautiful location. We spent our family Christmas here and the kids loved everything that there was to do on the property. It was extremely cold out with negative wind chills but the kids loved going to the club and spending time in the pool. The property manager was extremely helpful before we got there telling us what the area had to offer and even when we were there and had an issue. Extremely responsive to all questions and issues. We definitely want to visit again.
