One of my favorite stays in any rental ever! The property was gorgeous, amenities galore, well stocked, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. We went to Galena vineyards just outside of town and enjoyed sipping wine while listening to live music. Had a blast doing the alpine slides at Chestnut mountain. We were going to have dinner downtown, but decided to go back to the rental instead and so glad we did! Would love to stay here again!

Amazing Girls Weekend!

Our group of 9 girls had the best time at this property! The house was HUGE, plenty of space for everyone. We loved the 'Coffee Room' in the mornings and the bar area was great for games in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed to kick back and relax. We couldn't find anything to complain about if we tried!

Nice location

It was an okay house. We have stayed at many in the Galena territory. The layout of the house has made it look small. The master bedroom has a lookout “window” into the downstairs so really not much privacy. And the floors were so dirty our feet or socks were black. I don’t think it was ever washed.

Amazing stay

Our group of five (3 kids and 2 adults) can not say enough about our amazing stay. The home was lovely, well appointed, fun for every age, and just generally gorgeous. Even when we had a minor issue it was dealt with quickly. Stay here - you won't regret it.
