Very nice property that met all of our needs. Loved the area and the amenities at the owners club. We had a maintenance issue that did not get addressed during our stay, but otherwise an enjoyable weekend.
Very nice layout - each room has bathroom and there is a guest WC, 2 living rooms, multiple decks etc. Beautiful area and the host was very responsive and super friendly. We found some unfortunate cleaning issues, and she offered another rental, though that hassle wasn’t best for us. We think they just need more observant maintenance - but that’s hard if the host can’t constantly check their work (and they shouldn’t have to). About 12 min to town, 15 to ski. Great and would use again!
We came to Galena for a girls trip and this place was beautiful and in a really relaxing spot! It worked perfect for us and I appreciated the large fan in the bedroom too! We’d definitely stay again!
The house had everything we could have needed for a small getaway with some of our family. Clean, comfortable, stocked, and nice touches like a sound system that was easy to play your own music into via bluetooth. Definitely would stay again!
Nice quiet area. Layout was great with plenty of space for guests. All the essential supplies were available. The waterfalls are a must see. Overall a great property.
This was a perfect place for our family weekend. Plenty of comfy beds and bathrooms for everyone. Would definately book again. Would have liked things to be a bit cleaner, but it wasnt uncomfortable.
Jolene was very responsive to any questions we had. The home was clean and well maintained. It was just what we were looking for in a quiet family getaway!
My family of 4 went and another family stayed at this home. We loved that each room had its own bathroom! And the kids loved the bunk beds! The house had everything we needed. It is in a great location - close to the shopping, trails, and owners club!
The house was beautiful! Plenty of space and windows. It was great to watch the lighting during the storm! House is well stocked and clean. Host was responsive when we had a question. Plenty of room for the 6 adults we had stay. Will definitely keep this on our list to rent again.
Our stay overall was very nice. Property was as described. It was clean and comfy for the family that stayed and the four that visited for meals. Check in was clear, the binder at the property was detailed. We didn't take advantage of the Owner Amenities on the resort, but still had a nice time.
You would think you’re not in Illinois. Beautiful home & location. 15 minutes from downtown Galena. Ample home. Cleanliness could’ve been worked on but we booked within a two day notice.
We have been visiting Galena for about 10 years now. This home was perfect and was immaculate. It had everything we needed and the location was great for sunsets and wildlife. We would absolutely return. Thank you
Property not kept up the best. One toilet didnt work, master shower barely drained and one outdoor door didnt lock. Place was semi clean but could have been better.
