Amazing 6 BR Home! Whiskey Room! Pool Table! Karaoke! Outdoor Hot Tub!

The GTA Owners Club is just 4 minutes away, and Downtown Galena is only 15 minutes away. This home is NOT pet-friendly.

**Enjoy Golf Benefits** Guests of this home have access to our Golf Membership at Eagle Ridge, which provides preferred rates and tee times at The General, The North Course, and the South Course! Contact us for details.

Our Grand Galena Retreat is 4500 sq ft of amazing space for your friends & family to enjoy! When you arrive, you'll have access to the garage and space to park another 3-5 cars in the driveway. Enter our home and be prepared to experience the getaway you've been wanting. The open-concept main floor features an airy family and dining room with a spectacular deck view (outdoor seating & gas grill) and beyond. Gather around the woodburning fireplace or kick back and watch the game on our large flat-screen TV. Our dining room will easily host your holiday gathering, seating 10 at our table & 4 at the counter. There is additional seating in the kitchen for another 4, a great place for the kids or an extra spot for prep. Our stainless appliances will make cooking a breeze in the fully stocked kitchen. Great extra space for the adults in your group who will love our Whiskey Room. Sit back and reminisce about the day, watch TV, or play shuffleboard in a space just for you. Our primary bedroom is also on the main level with a large jetted tub, walk-in shower, and double sinks. Next, head upstairs to our upstairs bonus room, which offers comfortable seating and a TV and is open to below to be "close enough" to the group, but enjoy your special spot. Down the hall is an ensuite bedroom with a queen size bed, right across the hall is another ensuite bedroom w/2 Queen beds. Our lower level will excite the pool and poker players in your group! The game room also has an arcade, karaoke, fireplace & access to the outdoor deck w/hot tub. There are 3 additional bedrooms and w/attached baths on the lower level. Two have King size beds and the last has a Queen. We provide the most comfortable linens and bedding with extra pillows & blankets for maximum relaxation. Don't forget the firepit w/seating for 10 in our spacious backyard! Please note there is a 4-night minimum from June - August.

You will have access to the GTA Owners Club while staying with us. The indoor pool is open year-round, and the outdoor pool is open from Memorial Day - Labor Day. The club is an exclusive amenity that can only be used by Galena Territory property owners and their guests. The Club features an indoor swimming pool, an outdoor swimming pool w/slides, a kiddie pool, a fitness room, a game room, basketball courts, tennis courts, a seasonal snack bar, free WiFi, and an outdoor playground.

Everything we needed

We brought our staff here to getaway and have annual planning sessions. The en-suite bedrooms worked really well for privacy while the common spaces allowed our team to still feel connected. With the wide array of built in activities and the wonderfully furnished kitchen we had little need to leave the property. Will definitely plan to stay again.

Great house for a group

Very spacious and plenty of room for a big group. We all loved the hot tub, karaoke machine & all the other fun amenities. Loved having 2 refrigerators, but would like to note that there's not an ice maker in either of them.

Great place for a big family!

Every year we get a big house for our family to hang out. Had a blast! Plenty of room for games and the hot tub was great! Loved that the bedrooms were far enough away that the kids could go to bed and adults could still stay up and chat without bothering them! Access to the owners club for the pool was great too!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautifully decorated comfortable large home perfect for 9 girls on a weekend getaway. Could be slightly cleaner in certain areas. Spotty WiFi and tv service at times. Lots of nice amenities in the home. Hot tub and karaoke machine were appreciated and used. Would recommend with a few cleaning tweaks . Not too far from downtown Galena-15 minute drive.

Amazing house for large family!

We LOVE this house and hope to stay there again soon! So many thoughtful details (extra pillows/blankets, games, s’mores supplies, etc.). the whiskey room and loft area were great! Only a couple negatives (and they weren’t a huge deal), but the deck is pretty worn and we had a couple splinters and there were only 7 amenity passes, when a house holds 14, a pass for each guest would be expected. Overall, it was a great trip! The host was very helpful!

Great house for multigenerational family weekend

We had a wonderful weekend here with our multigenerational family. The bedrooms are all nice, quiet, comfortable and private. Lots of areas to gather, play and relax. The hot tub was great, kitchen well stocked, screened in porch lovely and view from the deck was so calming! There were a couple of items not stocked (hand soap in powder room, coffee filters in kitchen) that would have been nice. But overall no complaints from our group!! Just lots of fun times with our family and great times for our group including toddlers, tweens, teens and grandparents alike!

Lovely Girls Getaway

The home did not disappoint. Rural area but easy enough to go into Galena, a scenic dinner at Timmerman's in East Dubuque, and antiquing in Elizabeth. Everyone having their own space was nice, although the deck is a bit rough and needs some love. A tea kettle would have been appreciated, but overall pretty well stocked. The thermostats were vexing, patio doors stuck a little, and be prepared for sketchy wifi, as you are in a wooded area. Both Laura and Todd were responsive to our needs with setting up a few things in the home. They really made the experience top notch.
