We rented this house for 5 adults to stay in over the labor day weekend. The house was clean and fit our needs perfectly. It was great having a full bathroom for each of the bedrooms. The kitchen appliances were nice and the overall layout of the house exceeded our expectations! We will certainly rent this house again next time we are in Galena.

Little piece of heaven

We usually stay on the territory every summer as a family. This place was absolutely perfect! It met all of our accommodation needs and even more. Our boys loved it and the sun room was my favorite part. Rooms were very comfortable. We definitely said we will book this lovely home again next year.

Great girls getaway

Perfect place for a sisters getaway. The 3 on suite bedrooms are a luxury for everyone to have their own bathroom. The location and drive to the house is beautiful and only a short drive to Galena.

So perfect!

We stayed for a long family weekend. The home was beautiful. Loved taking advantage of the peaceful back deck to enjoy morning coffee and evening wine. The 3season room was my favorite space overall. The home had everything we needed. Super easy in and out of the Galena area. Communicating with the host was easy and fast. Can't wait to come back!

We had a great stay in this property. Three couples stayed and we each had our own bathroom, which was great. We enjoyed the 4 season room and spent some time on the deck. We also used the grill to cook a meal. We enjoyed our stay.

Spring break getaway

We enjoyed our stay for a quick spring break getaway. We took advantage of trails, swimming and the proximity to Galena. The house was cozy and comfortable and fit our group of 8 perfectly. The sunroom was inviting and we had space for gathering as well as for resting.

Beautiful Galena Home

First off, the home was exactly as described. Great location close enough to town and also to all Galena Territory amenities including the General Store etc. The home was clean and bright with nice linens and towels.
