We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were very happy how well the home accommodated our group of 9 adults. With plenty of seating in the living room and the perfectly sized dining table we were all able to gather in the same room. We enjoyed our meals and the ample space to relax after. The decks and outdoor areas were lovely too. Also one of the best stocked kitchens with all the necessary items!

I believe this is our 4th time returning to this home. It’s everyone’s favorite spot for our annual Galena trip. The only negative is I wish I could bring my dog. So many positives! It’s a perfect house for hosting a big group. We love hanging out on the beautiful deck, Willi’s bar, the open kitchen, and hot tub!

The rental process and the property itself were truly wonderful. Property owners were very easy to contact and responsive. The only improvement we would recommend is that the kitchen could use some additions like bowls, trays and baskets for serving food.
