Emma's Corner - A Unique Galena Weekend Retreat
On the second floor of the Artists' Annex overlooking Spring St. in Galena is the most unique vacation rental. Emma's Corner is equipped with two walls of (to the ceiling) windows, skylights and track lighting that provide unlimited options for showcasing the diverse artwork of the proprietor, Charles Fach. The unit was very clean and comfortable and is near the shops downtown. On Sunday we were treated to omlettes for breakfast in a historic room at the back of the Annex that once served as an underground barrel-vaulted limestone brewing chamber. This was truly an amazing experience! We would highly recommend Abe's Spring St. Guest House & Artist Annex to anyone looking for a unique vacation experience in the Galena area.

Comfortable Art-filled Rooms Near Main Street
The room was perfect for two. If you stay two nights, make sure to take advantage of Charlie and Sandra’s free breakfast in their renovated brewing cellar for a delicious meal and a fascinated piece of Galena history.
