50 Birthday Celebration
My sisters and Mom decided on a girls weekend in Galena to enjoy wine, shopping, and of course hot tub time for my oldest sister’s 50th. This place was perfect for a small group! The nook was popular for star gazing, the hot tub was delightful in the cold weather, the location to downtown Galena and the wineries in the area was great, and the Skeeball in the house was fun. We are already talking about our next stay!!

Friends retreat
Upon arrival we explored the entire house and fell in love. We ended up ordering in and enjoying the hot tub, fire pit and game room.
Saturday we went downtown and introduced Cosmo to everyone interested.
We had a great time and it was fun to have a goal for the evening.

Great Home
My family stayed at this home and my brother at a home down the road. The 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms were amazing. The kitchen and porch was big enough to cook meals together and we could all eat at one time. The area offered lots to do and hot tub was wonderful. The vacation destination was a hit!

Everything you need is here!
This home was very clean and well-maintained. We cooked several meals and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The pool was only a 5 minute drive and we enjoyed using the hot tub every evening. We enjoyed kayaking, zip lining, going on the Alpine Slide, and shopping in town.

Great family getaway
The house was great! Extremely clean and well stocked kitchen. The location is close to the multiple golf courses, owners club with pool, and a short drive to downtown Galena. There were toys for the kids and games for all ages. The screened porch was a favorite, especially this time of year when the bugs are getting bad. We very much appreciated all of the thoughtful touches and will look forward to another visit!
Beautiful scenery all around, and the night sky looks amazing (especially once the outdoor lights go out at 10). My group did not, unfortunately, get to visit the community pool or any other amenities for the location, but everyone had an amazing time between visiting downtown Galena and having fun at the house. Plenty of games and toys for the family to play! We're hoping to be able to book this location again for next year, the kids are already asking about it!

The house was exactly what the listing said. The whole house was very clean. It was easy to access the house once we arrived and the check-out process was pretty simple to, with notes attached to the fridge on what had to be done. We would stay here again.

Cute and clean property, clean hot tub, very nice space. Wish we had another family with us, would have enjoyed the basement space. Great game collection. Access to the community pool was nice; it was a little bit crowded.

Wonderful Time
Couldn’t have been happier - the house was exactly as advertised. Plenty of space for everyone to hang out and enjoy. The fooseball table was a ton of fun, the hot tub was wonderful, and there were lots of toys to keep the 2-year-old we had with us entertained.

The home was just as described. It provided everything we needed. Plenty of space to gather when we wanted and to get away from each other at the end of the day. The indoor community center and hot tub were a plus! 2 year old granddaughter loved finding the toy boxes!
