Excellent weekend getaway

This house was awesome- we have absolutely no complaints! If you are looking for a fun couples getaway this house is perfect. Three bedrooms all with queen or King bed, downstairs lounge with pool table and hot tub outside and open floor plan upstairs are exactly what you would need. Downtown Galena is charming. Only problem is the cabs. There is only 1 company and they charge a ridiculous fee to go from the territory to downtown.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, families with young children.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know what a great time that we had there. We just loved the House it was very warm and inviting. It was so easy to get to all the things we wanted to do and see. It seemed that we were the ones there. The other house around seemed to never had any lights. Upstairs was nice and warm and cozy. All the girls said that they would come back. Thanks for everything, the perfect get away.

I wanted to thank you for letting us stay in your house this past weekend...we had a good time and really enjoyed getting to know the Galena area. The town was way more than I expected, with so many cute stores and creative things for sale. We loved the landscape where the house was located with the hills and babbling brook. We greatly enjoyed all the entertainment right AT the house - the hot tub, the cable TV, and the pool table. Your directions/instructions were clear and easy to follow. We had a good time.

Very nice and cozy. Got a lot of use out of the pool table. We had 3 couples and it was really nice that none of us had to sleep in twin beds or share a bathroom. The only thing that we would like to have had was an iron, but, there was a steamer. Location of the house was great.

the home is exactly as advertised -- immaculately clean, comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable temperature, great water pressure, etc. beautiful surroundings...the owner is completely professional and thorough, and immediately responsive -- we unfortunately found the hot tub wasn't heating/working when we arrived -- the owner responded by getting it serviced right away, and we were able to enjoy the tub after a day of skiing! i highly recommend this property, and would definitely return! thanks vito, for opening your beautiful home to us!

My extended family spent a week in this wonderful home and enjoyed it tremendously. To begin with, we had great communication with the owner when setting up the rental. All our questions were promptly answered via email or phone. The house itself was exactly as described. The welcome basket of tea and coffee was very nice, and the check-in process was simple. The home is well appointed and the kitchen is well stocked with all the necessities for preparing meals. There were ample blankets and throws for cosy nights by the fire. We all enjoyed the pool table and really enjoyed the large TVs during football bowl week. We took advantage of the available pack-n-play crib and the as well as the games and movies. We enjoyed the more secluded setting and my daughter loved seeing the deer in the woods just a few yards from the house. Thank you for a wonderful rental experience, we would love to rent the house again.

FAMILY GATHERING

We would recommend this house. Good price for a clean well maintained property. The area was scenic, safe, and pleasant for walking. We enjoyed the hot tub. There was comfortable seating in the living area and the large dining table was great for the 7 adults to gather around for meals when dining in. The only minus was the lack of glass containers for microwave use and cookie sheet/baking pan for oven use. If we return to Galena, we would be happy to stay in this house again. Thank you Vito for accommodating our early arrival.

Another Great Stay

Just returned from our second stay at this house in two years. This place has it all- nice hot tub, pool table, great views and tasteful decor. From the hot tub, we watched wild turkeys walk across the lawn and a hot air balloon taking flight. In terms of location, it is about as close as you can get to the owners' club and swimming pool (walkable for the athletically inclined, but I'm too lazy to do that on vacation) in the Territory. My family has a fair number of outdoor allergies, so it is very important that we stay in a place that is clean and not full of mildew. On that front, we have never been disappointed, and it is for that reason that I don't plan to stay anywhere else the next time we are in Galena.

My wife and I stay at a lot of VRBO rentals on vacation and have stayed at others in Galena. This was a great value. Great views and lots of privacy for our family. The place was clean and just the right size for us. We loved the nice hot tub and pool table. We fully recommend this property and Vito was very nice and accomodating. It is difficult to find a nice home in this price range so look no further!

If you're looking for a rental home in the Galena Territory, you must consider this wonderful home. The owner was so great to rent from, also. He allowed us to take posession early and even stay a bit later. Any questions we had were answered very promptly. We lived in Galena for 9 years (20 years ago). It was so special to be back with our children/grandchildren. The home has an open concept and was so warm and inviting. Beautiful! The location is great for going to the owner's club for swimming/game room. The privacy was great, as the home sits on a very large lot. Full size washer/dryer (with detergent!) was helpful for our active family. Bedrooms are more than adequate and beds were very comfortable. Loved the hot tub!!! Table was large enough for us to enjoy all our meals together, then we moved out to the wonderful deck. Only problem we had was not having enough days to stay longer. Thanks Vito for such a wonderful home for our family to build 4th of July memories around.
