The Downtown House - 1820s home steps from Main Street in downtown Galena

Just steps from Main Street in downtown Galena, this beautifully rehabbed 1820s vacation rental home sleeps up to 7 people.

There is 1 reserved parking space for guests.

The kitchen is fully stocked with pots & pans, dishes, toaster, blender, Crockpot and more. There is a standard coffee maker. Coffee/tea and cream are provided. There is a washer and dryer (and detergent) if you need it for your personal use. Don't worry about washing the sheets and towels. That's my job :)

Enjoy the back deck that overlooks Main Street, central air conditioning, high-speed WiFi, board games, disco light, Bluetooth stereo and a streaming-ready/smart TV

There is a king bed in the master bedroom. The second bedroom upstairs is more of a loft setup and has 2 XL twin beds (no door and serves as access to the master bedroom). There is a twin bed (with an additional trundle) in the main floor bedroom and the living room has a sleeper sofa.

Bedding, towels, soap, shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer and an iron are also provided.
