Extended Holiday

Our family enjoyed being able to extend our time together over the Holiday at your property. It was large enough for all of us to be together and had plenty of room to spread out if we wanted to. Thank you for this opportunity to make memories that will last a lifetime.

Great Getaway

We utilized this location for a work event! This home has everything you need with plenty of space for everyone to “stretch out”. It is convenient for the downtown area, but still gives you that “out of the city” feel. The owner was very helpful in making us aware of all the amenities of the house. We will definitely stay in this property again.

Fantastic House in a Great Location

We had 6 couples get together and everyone thoroughly enjoyed both the “Gathering Place” as well as Galena’s shops and great restaurants. It was fantastic that each couple had their own bathroom. The house was well stocked and all communications were prompt. We hope to make this an annual event.
