Thunder Bay Chalet is a warm and inviting 3,500 square foot authentic log home that blends rustic charm with cozy luxury. Designed for comfort and togetherness, the home features five thoughtfully appointed bedrooms and four and a half baths. On the main level, a queen bedroom with a private en-suite bath offers easy, peaceful living. Upstairs, two additional queen bedrooms each include their own bathrooms, creating private retreats tucked beneath timber beams. The lower level is perfectly suited for families and groups, with two bedrooms that share a bath. One features two sets of bunk beds, while the other offers two single beds, creating a relaxed, lodge-style space ideal for kids or solo travelers. The kitchen is uniquely designed and functional, without traditional countertops or prep space, so we recommend bringing prepared meals or arranging catering to fully enjoy your stay. Please note, the kitchen does not include a dishwasher. At the heart of the home, the living room invites you to slow down and savor the moment. Gather around the crackling fireplace, play a tune on the piano (please handle with care) or simply take in the sweeping views of the beautiful, wooded grounds. Downstairs, you will find even more room to unwind, whether you are relaxing by the fire, watching TV, or stepping outside to enjoy evenings around the fire pit under the stars. For those mixing work with getaway, an upstairs workspace with a desk/table, and monitor offers a quiet and comfortable place to stay connected, all while surrounded by the warmth and character of this true log retreat.

Enjoy access to the Galena Territory Owners Club during your stay. The indoor pool is open year-round, while the outdoor pool is open from Memorial Day through Labor Day. This exclusive amenity is available only to Galena Territory property owners and their guests and features an indoor pool, outdoor pool with slides, kiddie pool, fitness room, game room, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, tennis courts, and a seasonal snack bar. Be sure to also explore Lake Galena, the Shenandoah Riding Center, and miles of scenic hiking trails across the 6,800-acre community.

My family had a lovely time at this beautiful Verbo the lawn space was great for playing our games. We had a campfire every night. The birds are beautiful. We loved the porch in the morning for coffee. We loved the large table in the kitchen to gather around the place was definitely clean and the beds were very comfortable. And added surprise was the beautiful baby grand piano that was actually a player piano as well. We had lots of fun with thatWould highly recommend this property. Thank you.
