Perfect to an extended family trip
This house was beautiful and perfect for our extended family. Great location - only about a 25 minute drive to Chestnut Mountain and about 10 minutes to downtown Galena. Everything was perfectly clean and exactly as advertised. Thanks so much for having us!

Mother's Day Getaway
Our group enjoyed our stay. We were able to spread out and give those who needed more quiet and down time the room to do so. The owners were easy to get in touch with, both before and during our stay, which we appreciated. Would definitely stay again:)

Great getaway for the gals.
Beautiful home, nicely decorated and comfortable and layed out. All 5 bedrooms with bathrooms are very spacious and comfortable. Lots of room to relax and huge gathering areas, including the bar area in the lower area. Great deck and hot tub! Highly recommended for your vacations. Families can have privacy when they want and then gather all in the spacious rooms to be with each other.

Spacious home with lots of room for a family
We stayed with 4 couples, one single and an elderly parent. Lots of room for everyone and the view from the main deck is unbelievable. There is some upkeep that needs to be done to the house, but it didn’t affect our stay. Excellent quiet location to relax!

Spacious and comfortable
Lots of room to hang out with a big group at this property. We loved that every bedroom had it's own bathroom (with one bedroom using a hall bath). We enjoyed the main deck and hot tub as well. We travel together with friends every year and we'd come back to this home on a future trip.
