About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Stunning on South Golf Course; Golden Tee, Patio TV, Fire Pit, Hot Tub & More!!

At the end of a tucked away cul-de-sac through a winding driveway with towering trees on either side you'll reach our beautiful home on the Eagle Ridge South Course!

As you open the front door, you'll be amazed by the spaciousness and be drawn across the living room to a row of French doors, leading to a sprawling deck with an incredible view of rolling hills of the Eagle Ridge South golf course.

Star gaze while soaking in the Hot Tub or have fun in the 1000+ Sq Ft Basement with pool table, foosball, poker table, mini golf, and gaming systems!

If you came for the fresh air there is no better place than these decks to enjoy dinner and drinks or gather 'round to watch the game on the outdoor TV or catch up around the gas powered firepit.

There is something for everyone at Birdie's Clubhouse!

Perfect Property for a Golf Trip
Our annual Guys Trip took us to Galena this year and this was the perfect property for us. There were 8 of us and we each had comfortable sleeping arrangements and more than enough space to hangout during the mornings and evenings. Lia was such a good host and communicated often and offered assistance if we needed anything during our stay. If we come back to Galena again next year, we will definitely stay at this property!

Short stay
The house was perfect for our family of six for our short stay. We enjoyed the game room and hot tub and the kitchen was well stocked. The beds were very comfortable. If we return to Galena in the future, we will try to stay here again.

Great Place to stay
We came to the area to go skiing for our daughter's birthday. This place worked out great for us! The location and the house were perfect for our needs. The kids loved the activities in the house and the hot tub was a great way to relax after skiing all day. We wish we could have stayed longer and definitely would consider this house again in the future.

Amazing
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our trip! The hosts are amazing. They went above and beyond. Severe storms went through the area and the hosts texted us to make sure we were ok. The house is amazing! We loved the location bc it was on a cul da sac, golf course and only one neighbor close. The house has everything you would need and more. It even had night lights and a step stool for my little one! Can’t wait to go back!

Best of all the years renting in Galena
We’ve been renting in the Galena area every year for the last 20 yrs. This home was by far the very best. Clean and spacious for all. The kitchen was well stocked. We found ourselves in need of nothing. Attention to detail was noticed by all…make up towels in each bathroom, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in clearly marked bottles, extremely comfortable bedding and linens, club passes with parking passes at the entrance etc etc. The basement was spectacular offering a poker table with all the chips and cards supplied, pool table, foozball and putting green. Beautiful deck area expanding the entire back of the house, bbq, smoker and hot tub. Fantastic weekend. We will surely be back. Huge thank you to our lovely host Lia!!

Thoughtful touches, family friendly, decent house, some improvements needed
Overall our experience was good here. We truly appreciated the thoughtful touches the owners made in making guests feel welcome (welcome letter, goody basket, etc) as well as all thought put into the amenities for children (step stools, games, even a good amount of toys which was surprising and helpful). Many activities available in the home for families to enjoy (pool/games/foosball/hot tub/etc). Owners were friendly and responsive when we had questions. I personally found the home lacking in curb appeal (no plants or decorative touches to be seen) and a little dreary. The wooded lot made the home pretty dark at times and there is not much yard to hang out in besides the decks. There was a good amount of updates done but other many other features appeared original to the house so it wasn't a luxurious as I'd hoped. All the showers including the master are new but really tight (and we're short/small people already). Some of the furniture could use updating as well (somewhat dated as well as rips and holes in chairs, couch armrest is severely dented in and in need of repair). Some gaming systems in the basement didn't work. Only one water heater so if you plan on using the soaker tub beware- or if you have a large group perhaps showering at the same time or one after the other). Our small group of 4 had no issues with hot water when taking showers concurrently. In summary, we enjoyed our stay in this home.

Great Weekend Getaway
We had a great family weekend getaway! The house was perfect with more than enough room and lots of stuff to do. The kids loved the game room downstairs and the pools at the owners club. We will definitely consider this house again if we go back to Galena.

Bachelorette Party Weekend
Lia’s property was wonderful for hosting our friends’ bachelorette party weekend! The house was spacious, clean, and provided plenty of instructions to use various things such as the hot tub. Every bedroom having its own connected bathroom felt like a luxury private hotel. I would highly recommend this house for hosting a group of friends.

Gorgeous property!
We hope to return to this beautiful house every year! Not only are the views outrageously beautiful, but the property is large and has all the amenities needed for a perfect vacation. We couldn’t get the outdoor fire pit to work, but other than that everything was wonderful. We were a 15 minute drive from everything - downtown, Chestnut Mountain, etc. We had a great weekend!

Our Happy Place
This has become an annual tradition for us… four couples that use this time to laugh, relax, catch-up and soak in the hot tub. Last year we went out to dinner in Galena… this year we did not specifically to maximize our time at the house. It has everything one needs and is so cozy we never want to leave. Before leaving Galena, we booked the house for our trip next year without hesitation. And the owner, Michelle, is always ready and willing to provide advice, guidance and answer questions. Finally, you will find this house to be comfortable and clean… so important and appreciated. We will keep coming back. Again and again. If you stay here, it will become one of your happiest places!
