accommodates large group

We had 8 in our group of an all-girl 3 generation family annual Xmas trip during the luminary's weekend. The house was so close to Main Street, we were able to walk downtown. Because of this, we were able to come and go as needed as there were different agendas with a large group. Lovely house with plenty of room and comfortable beds There was a large table to accommodate all of us to eat together and play cards. Kitchen well stocked with everything needed for meals. Prompt response from host when needed.

Family Getaway

This house was a great find for our family getaway. Plenty of room for our party of 8 (including three adult children, spouses and a grandchild). Large dining room table for meals and games, plenty of seating options in the living room, and a bedroom for everyone. A Christmas tree was a nice touch! Added bonus, the house is within walking distance to the Galena shopping area-eliminating the need to try to find a place to park which can be next to impossible at times. Highly recommend.

Wisconsin Sister's Weekend

We choose Galena as our annual Sister's weekend. This cozy home is blocks from the downtown. Perfect! This house had plenty of room for all five of us including two bathrooms. The large table in the dining room is where we spent a lot of our time. We also enjoyed the downtown for hours and hours with the cute clothing boutiques, wineries and restaurants. Thank you Deborah for recommending Embe's, the food was very good. We also went to Chestnut Mountain for a ride down the mountain, which was awesome. Give it a try! Thank you Debroah for being such a good host.

Excellent Stay in Every Way

Excellent cozy, spacious home with character. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed (much more so than other places we have stayed) for cooking and serving a variety of dishes. We had ample bed and bath linens and enjoyed playing the games available. The outdoor area in the back would have been great for grilling and conversation but we ran out of time to enjoy. The location was an easy walk for all ages to the shops, restaurants and bars on Main Street. The host was very informative with the process for checking in and out and making sure we had everything we needed.

Charming Galena home

5 sisters stayed at this perfectly charming home in Galena for a weekend. Everyone had their own space - everyone thought the beds were super comfy. Location was great! We were able to walk downtown every day; it was an easy walk even for the more elderly of our group. The host was always quick to respond to any questions we had. Easy check in and out. The house was so cute, clean and absolutely perfect in every way. We loved our stay here and Galena!! Thank you, Deb!
