Thank you!
Enjoyed our time in Galena! Had to drive everywhere, since I had an elderly person with me who could not have walked the hills. A little tricky for her to get down the stairs to the front door of the house but the sturdy railing helped. The main floor bedroom and bathrooms were great for her. No bathrooms on the second floor, but that was OK for those of us who slept up there. Was glad there were two bathrooms. I really liked having no house chores to do the morning we left. Only had to put the key in the lock box. The house gave us a lovely opportunity to visit, make meals and relax.

First time in Galena and we didn't realize all the hills for this location. If you are willing to drive then this is the place for you. If you plan on walking, you will get your workout in for sure!

House was well stocked with towels etc Not truly walkable to downtown as the area is very hilly. Home is dated but clean and roomy.
