Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the territory. Mucho privacy plus a lot of stuff to do in the area. Terrific golf! We would stay here again if available. Really easy to deal with Galena Reservations.

Pictures do not do this place justice

This is an amazing property and my kids loved it. My only comment would be that the owners need to remove the bird detractor away from the master bedroom window as the wind caused it to "knock" on the wall 2 nights in a row which required ear plugs. Other than that, we enjoyed the space immensely and would rent this property again!

Galena Territory stay

The house has a small footprint, the bathrooms are older and not great. Because the house has big Oaks right next to it acorns and branches fell throughout the night on the roof which made sleeping a bit difficult. The area is pretty and the property is very wooded and not great to using the yard for fire pit etc.Over all we enjoyed our stay and the price was right for a Galena weekend.

Stay with family.

The house is in a great location and offers a nice layout. Kitchen is fully equipped and functional.Linens are clean.However, the towels are so old and faded that it’s unpleasant to use them.Bathrooms in general are in dire need of remodel.Additionally, the outside of the house is not well maintained and doesn’t really have a nice outdoor area.The deck needs some shade,maybe an umbrella at least.

Galena Getaway

This is the second time we have stayed here. The home had everything we needed from a well provisioned kitchen to comfortable couches in the living room to three bedrooms, and we could even bring our dog! Jolene responds quickly if you have any questions or needs which is so helpful. It’s perfect for 3 retired women on a weekend getaway!

Accurate listing, excellent communication

The property is in a nice location, was clean and comfortable. Communication with Jolene was excellent and prompt. The primary bedroom bathroom seems original to when the house was built maybe in the 70s - could use an update. Also the mattress in that room is like falling into a soup bowl I assume because it's a pretty old inner spring and could also use an update. The spiral staircase is very narrow though luckily I did not really need to go up or down it really.

“The Tree House”

This was a perfect getaway for my husband and I. We didn't get a chance to use the endless FREE amenities at the club house. However, the location and VRBO itself are so cozy you want even need to leave. It’s a perfect little cabin for all seasons. With a fireplace inside and out and huge deck for coffee clutching, you won’t be disappointed. It’s a short driving distance to town with endless views along the way. We felt this was better than the pictures and hope to go back and visit again. Note: The owner Jolene had excellent communication with us throughout the entry process and made it very easy to understand.

Great Sisters Weekend Stay!

This property was great! It had plenty of space, and was clean and Jolene in the management office was great to work with. It is close enough to town, to enjoy town during the day, and still gives you a quiet space and area to enjoy to just hangout. The teens also enjoyed the pools and amenities.
