We had an amazing stay! The house was spotless, spacious, and perfect for a weekend getaway. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to cook in, and the hot tub was the highlight after long days exploring Galena. Every bedroom having its own ensuite was a huge plus. We’d definitely come back!

Over all a fantastic stay! The house was clean and the location was exactly what we wanted. Bathrooms in each bedroom is a great idea and now a must have for future rentals. The outdoor jacuzzi was nice after a long day of golf and the kitchen was well equipped. We really enjoyed the screened in porch and the outdoor deck with a grill. Brian was a great host and kept us well informed. Thanks!

Great location and beautiful house. Nice and clean, comfortable beds and great overall layout. The towels were clean but a bit old. Small leak in one of the windows, but to be fair a giant storm hit when we were at the home. Hosts were extremely easy to work with and checking in and out was fast and smooth. Would definitely recommend for a large group.

Family weekend

We enjoyed our weekend immensely. Overall, the interior was very clean and felt like a vacation retreat. We had a little with us, so we brought a fencing to put around the open stairway for safety. We would not recommend this home for young children unless you are prepared to bring child safety equipment and activities to occupy them. We thoroughly enjoyed the Owners Club, but think that if you rent a house that sleeps 12, you should have more than 6 guest passes. The arrea was very picturesque with hilly landscape and felt like we were farther away than Illinois! This area is a gem!

Perfect for our family

This is the second time we have stayed in this home. It is the perfect size for our family and we love that every bedroom has its own bathroom. The owners club is a big perk and we enjoy the Galena downtown as well. It’s a great home away from home!
