About this property

Entire place

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

Quiet & Peaceful

Our home is nestled in a small community and backs up to dense forest, beyond which is Lake Galena (viewable after the trees shed their fall luster)! Enjoy listening to the birds as you sip your morning coffee on one of the two decks, or screened in porch. Enjoy a glass of wine around the gas firepit as you unwind from a day of adventuring or shopping in downtown Galena. This home features three levels, each of which has a full bath and bedroom. The main level offers the great room that flows into the dining and kitchen areas; screen porch, and large deck. The lower level offers a pool table, additional TV with bar type seating, and deck. The upper level offers an additional loft area. The home’s layout is perfect for both gatherings and a personal oasis.

Owners Club amenities include indoor & outdoor pools, tennis and pickle ball courts, game room, & fitness center. Boat rentals available on beautiful Lake Galena!

9 Pinehurst was an exceptional home, so well thought out. Three levels so each couple had their own private space were perfect with the kitchen, dining and family area where everyone could gather. The home was very clean, tastefully decorated and so well furnished with home away from home supplies and necessities. The setting is peaceful and serene. We would definitely stay there again.

Perfect Getaway

Our stay at this property in Galena Territory was so very nice. The townhouse was clean & spacious & pretty. The club amenities allowed many extra activities if we wanted them and all of easy access. Though hot and humid, the screened-in porch worked well early a.m. and in the evening. The available games kept my granddaughter busy for hours! All adults felt relaxed and “away from it all”. Thank you!

Excellence abound

We couldn’t have been more pleased with the conditions of the home in which we stayed. We felt at home immediately as the pictures provided very accurately portrayed the dwelling. We were able to use much of the associated Eagle Ridge resort amenities including tennis, pickleball, swimming and sauna. The surrounding area is simply gorgeous with amazing vistas and a short, easy drive into Galena. We would definitely stay here again next time we are in the area.

Very quaint and peaceful, but lacking in comfort as to mattresses, pillows and bedding. Also there's a musty/moldy smell throughout the home.

Galena get away

House was great. Worked good for 3 friends. All having our own bath/bedroom. Our code didn't work to get in the property. Ring picked it up and someone was able to set it again. Communication/questions to host prior to stay were not answered. We were there on a VERY busy weekend. Had inquired about taxi/uber. No answer. Would have been nice if we would have had some warning about not being able to taxi or uber because of the busy weekend. That was a question that was never answered.

Perfect Getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at this charming house. The layout was perfect for our needs and the home is so inviting. Everyone enjoyed having their own bedroom and bathroom on different levels. Great location - secluded and quiet yet close to downtown Galena. We enjoyed feeding and watching the birds from the porch and deck. Great communication with Lorebeth. Would definitely stay here again!

40th Anniversary Celebration

We had three couples and enjoyed this house so much! It was so nice to be able to stay with friends and have a space we could catch up. We enjoyed watching and feeding the birds. (The squirrels helped themselves too). We felt like we were in a tree house. We all loved that each couple had their own bathroom! Laura Beth was a great hostess.
