Poor location
Property is located with a train track right next to it! Train was permanent going on and off thru the night. Owners wanted to charge us $20 per hour for early or late checkin. Upstairs bathroom drain not working. Cute place but not as cute as it looks!

Place was very clean and in a quiet area but still very close to downtown which is convenient. Philip was prompt with communicating any needs or questions we had.

Anniversary weekend
Hadn't been to Galena in years and it was certainly worth the trip. We had a great time, the house set up was great, everything we needed and it was an easy walk to downtown. We enjoyed the hot tub and the dogs loved the fenced in backyard!

Good weekend!
The house was super clean, the beds are excellent, very nice linens. Some suggestions for improvement: the kitchen is lacking (no wine glasses, no rock glasses), broken pans, nothing extra (like no coffee). One of the beds didn't have a top sheet, only one towel and wash cloth per person for 3 days. Also both bathroom sinks didn't drain well and seemed to be backing up. Galena had a boil water order when we arrived and we didn't know until we got a notice delivered that the order had ended. We drank the tap water no knowing this was happening. The television was impossible to use.

We loved our stay! It was such a great location, so easy to walk to downtown Galena. We loved having the large backyard for our pup and the hot tub in the cold weather!
