Loved staying at this very comfortable and great condo for our weekend get-away. Everything was very clean & well equipped with everything we needed & we enjoyed the screened in porch looking out at the peaceful landscape watching all the little critters & birds. Our 8 year old loved having the option to swim at 2 different pools! We would love to come back soon. Thank you!

We loved our stay! The condo was cozy and came with just about every amenity we could have thought of. The fireplace and available wood was an additional nice touch and made for a fun, warm evening. We had a couple hiccups early on, but they were resolved quickly and communication was fast and easy.

Great condo for girls trip to Galena. We had all we needed at the condo. Comfortable beds as well. The territory is confusing and more information on the condo about what facilities we had access to along with a map would have helped! Fall is beautiful there.
