Stephen was great at communicating and getting back to messages quickly. We had a lovely stay at both homes for our little mini friend reunion! Home was clean and well organized!
Thanks for everything. Having 2 large houses next door to each other worked perfect for our large group. Hot tub was much needed after a full day of skiing. Thanks!
We were in town for our son's wedding at Oak Hill Farm. The houses were great! Love that each bedroom had it's own bathroom, made it great for everyone getting ready for wedding. Kitchens were well equipped, and the screened in porch was perfect.
Wonderful homes, well stocked with everything you need for the kitchen and grill! Owners quick to answer questions.., we had a great time with our kids and grandkids!
These were great properties and we LOVED that they were right next to each other. The owners were very helpful and messaged us back immediately if we had any questions. We hop to be back!
We all had a wonderful time! The kids loved the pool table and foosball and also the pools. It was great being so close to Galena and Dubuque, which we took advantage of.
We had 4 generations/multiple families traveling with us so side by side houses were perfect for us. We rent vacation homes often and this was these were the most well stocked houses We've ever stayed in......Thanksgiving dinner for 18 and we could all sit in one room together! While we did have to inconvenient but not trip ruining issues the host Steve responded to all messages immediately and resolved it (even on Thanksgiving Day). We did not use community pool but the hot tubs at each house were a bug hit. We would definitely rent these houses again!
Nineteen of us,ages 3 to 70, arrived at Canterbury Court for a three-day stay. This is our ninth year of family vacations, & our crowd agreed this spot was the best so far! Would recommend it for everyone who wants to make beautiful memories with loved ones!
The houses were clean and as advertised. Each bedroom had an attached bathroom which was greatly appreciated.
Stephen was very accommodating and available.
Would definitely stay at HALM property again.
Great place to stay with large groups. Highly recommend this property
Only issue was that it is dark going from one house to the other at night. A small yard light would be nice

We do have automatic lights for the property. Due to rules and regulations for our community geared towards a dark sky community, these lights can't be extremely bright or cast out. But they do light the way for our guests.
We stayed for a long weekend for our wedding in Galena. This was a great place to host our bridal party and enjoy a lot of quality time with our friends! The owners club is a very nice perk with access to the pool and fitness center!
These homes were perfect for our 3-generation family vacation. There was plenty of room and seating to gather, and options to keep everyone happily occupied - from the youngest to the oldest - whether they wanted recreation or a little serenity. The homes were comfortable, spotless, and had all the supplies we could possibly need. The decor was warm and inviting, and we loved spending time on the screened-in porches. The setting and views from the house were breathtaking. Steve was an attentive host, promptly responding to all questions and messages. We would stay at these homes again in a heartbeat.
We had ages 1-82 stay at both houses! Everything was wonderful especially the bedroom to bathroom ratio, kitchen amenities, pool table and hot tub! If I had to make a suggestion it would be to add 2 more dish towels and 2-4 wash cloths for the kitchen. We had a super time and would book again!
We booked both houses for our annual family weekend (plus a few others close by) and they worked out great for our large group. The kids could easily play in between and navigate safely between the 2 homes and there were multiple other rentals in very close proximity. The open space was great for hosting dinner, and there were enough bathrooms for every family to have their own plus more. The kids were bummed they couldn't use the hot tubs, but with the warm temps that didn't end up really being an issue. Overall we highly enjoyed our stay.
Nice place. Had trouble getting in, but after many, many tries and contact with the manager, we did get it to open. The bottom door to go out to the hot-tub had a broken deadbolt. We ended up removing the part and covering back up to be able to get in and out the door. Quite a bit of garbage laying around the hot-tub...beer cans, etc. Generally, it was a nice open area with nice bedrooms. Cupboards and drawers were nicely stocked.
