This home is an amazing 1600 square feet. It feels spacious and welcoming, definitely not your typical downtown rental. When you pull up and locate your on-street parking (first come first serve) you will notice the immaculate exterior of the home. It is located directly across the street from Turner Hall and could accommodate a bridal group, guests at a function or just serve as a beautiful backdrop for your stay.
Step inside from Bench Street and into the welcoming foyer. To the right, you’ll find a quiet study, and to the left, a cozy living room with an electric fireplace and a beautiful view of Turner Hall. There is plenty of comfortable seating and a flat screen tv for you to enjoy in this living space. NOTE: there is a sofa sleeper in the living room (please bring your own Queen size linens for sleeper). The dining room is large enough for everyone to gather and will be a great spot to enjoy meals and play games during your stay, the record player with vinyl is a sweet treat. Easy access to the kitchen with all major appliances and a Keurig coffee maker is handy for all. Enjoy the complimentary water in the refrigerator. Step out onto the screened back porch, a great place to relax with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. The half bath is also located on the main level. Upstairs are the 3 bedrooms all with comfortable Queen beds and they share one full bathroom. Plush linens and towels are available for you and don't forget that awesome view of Turner Hall across the street. Please note this home does not have a washer and dryer for guest use.

Perfect location! Clean house, great communication from the house manager, street parking could be tough if it is busy, but we didn’t have any issues. Had the best girls weekend and enjoyed spending time at the house!
The host was very quick to respond to us regarding check in. It was a sisters' weekend; the house is so quaint and charming. We loved everything about it. We liked the fact that we could walk to everything as parking on a busy weekend is a little tuff.
We’ve stayed here last year and it didn’t disappoint this year! Perfect location, comfortable rooms. We were very happy here. Will stay again next year!
Stayed here with my siblings for a fun Galena siblings weekend. This house was so nice! Lots a space, well stocked, comfortable beds, and perfect location to enjoy all of downtown Galena!
Friend group enjoyed a weekend in Galena shopping and eating out. Vehicle was left parked and we were able to walk one block arriving on Main Street. So much to see and do. Great spot! Would stay again!!
The home was exactly as promised. We were there during a busy holiday weekend and as noted on the description of the property, parking was a small challenge. But being so close to the downtown area, many restaurants, shops and such, there wasn't a need to travel by car unless you wanted to.Would stay here again!
