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!

Great place for family gathering
We stayed here for a family gathering and it was a wonderful vacation. We had plenty of bedrooms and the main level dining room, living room, porch combo were wonderful for hanging out as a family at times while also having different activities going on in smaller groups. Host was quick to respond to questions along the way.

3 generations enjoyed our stay. Lots of room to be together and to spread out. Grandkids especially loved hiking, riding at Shenandoah and swimming at the Owners' Club. Screen porch was great. Lovely pontoon cruise on Lake Galena as well.

Amazing stay in Galena
We had an amazing stay in Galena to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. There were 5 couples on the trip so this house was perfect - each couple had there own bedroom and bathroom. The house was clean and comfortable. Owner was quick to communicate and accompanied a few requests we had. Highly recommend this property.

We had a great time staying together as a big family. The house is very spacious and we all loved that each bedroom had its own bath. There were a few things that weren’t working perfectly but otherwise we had a great stay.

wonderful family get away
Beautiful 5 bedroom, 5.5 bathroom home on a cul-de-sac. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay playing games around the big kitchen table, we snuggled up to watch movies on the comfy couches by a roaring fire, took long walks with the dogs, and just had a great time hanging with our family. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen which had pretty much everything one would need to prepare nice meals. We'd definitely consider coming back during the summer where we could enjoy the outdoors more, the porch, and the beauty that summertime has to offer. I will add that Brian was very communicative and accommodating! This is the second time we booked with him and we'd def book with him again!

Annual trip
The house was as pictured- very nice to accommodate 5 couples for the weekend. Host quickly responded to couple of issues, however one could not be fixed over the weekend but I’m sure it will be resolved for the next group. Pretty clean for the most part except Light fixtures in a couple of the bathrooms could use a cleaning- dead bugs inside glass cover and some mold in the tracks of the shower doors. This house was well stocked with paper towels, tissues and toilet paper and hand soaps — a lot of rental homes have not provided these little essentials - so we were happy with that. Would stay here again. Thank you!
