Perfectly cute with everything needed

We loved how the place was set up, the beautiful view of golf course & being able to see the stars. The hideaway couch was comfortable and we really appreciated the Backgammon and Scrabble game (we grew up with that) It was an amazing experience!

Craft fair & shopping weekend

The rental process was easy and the owner was responsive to any questions or issues. It was decorated very nicely and for each of us to have a bedroom & bathroom was great. The golf course view was beautiful and we saw a few deer walking about. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway & fresh air, this is the place.

Girls Shopping Weekend

This property was a perfect place to stay for our girls shopping weekend in Galena. It is close enough (a short drive to downtown Galena) to all the wonderful shops in Galena but yet gave us a chance to relax and breath the wonderful wooded countryside air! The townhouse was well furnished and very clean. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Nicky Fairless

Host profile image
Hi there and thanks for taking an interest in our Galena townhouse. We are resident Yorkvillians and have been visiting Galena for years and years and years. We have always found value in renting entire homes when traveling. Funny story... when our kids were little my husband would actually bring the cribs with to wherever we were going so our babes would be in familiar surroundings (and sleep longer) and townhouse renting offered us that space. Hey, whatever works right? Now our kids are no longer little, but young adults, and having a two level level plus loft townhouse provides everyone with their own space. Whether it is all of us visiting as a family or some of us traveling with friends, this is a perfect place. We hope you take time out to enjoy the awesome view because we think a trip to Galena is always a good idea!
