This was a perfect space for our family of 4 with two teenagers. They had their own room upstairs which they enjoyed. The property was just as listed. It was about an 8 minute drive to the pool and 10-15 minutes to the Galena Main Street area. We were sad to leave!

This cozy little home in the galena territory was perfect for my party of four. It was a 26 min drive from the house to Chestnut Mountain Resort and it was a 15 min drive to grocery and dining. The place was clean and we thoroughly enjoyed the gas fireplace. I would recommend this place to others!
