Perfect Get away - private, updated home in The Galena Territory

The moment you walk into this updated home, you'll begin to breath easier. With 3 bedrooms and great gathering spaces, your whole group will enjoy your time together. Great for families, couples or girl's getaways.

The Master suite (lower/living level) has a king-sized bed and ensuite with huge walk-in shower and double vanity. The upper level (entrance level) features 2 additional bedrooms and a second bathroom with a large jetted tub.

The open concept living/dining/kitchen area on the lower level allows for easy conversations and hanging out. Enjoy a meal on the screen porch in the summer or the warmth of a crackling fire in the winter.

You'll likely see wild turkey and deer cross the lawn. If you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of "Glenn the Galena Groundhog" who lives under the deck. On clear nights, you can see the entire Milky Way.

Relax with our easy check in and check out process - no long list of things to do before leaving.

We are pet friendly with a $50 pet fee for additional cleaning often needed when furry friends come along. Please be sure to add pets to your reservation and the fee will be added.

As guests of The Galena Territory, you have access to indoor and outdoor pools, world class golf, game room, basketball/pickle ball courts, hiking trails, horse riding and of course Lake Galena for fishing and boating.

It's an easy drive (15 min) to charming downtown Galena shops and restaurants and Chestnut Mountain ski area.

Galena offers a balance of quiet relaxation with plenty to do!

Fabulous property
We have stayed in the Territories for over 10 years. I hate to say this as it will be harder to book but this property is a 10+. The owners have thought of everything and we felt like we were in a 5 star property. Everything was perfect. Thank you Sarah.

Spring Break
The host was very responsive and the house was very clean/nice for our family of four plus our dog. We enjoyed the surprise of having everything provided to make s'mores and loved seeing the wild turkeys roaming in the back. Would book to stay here again on a return trip to Galena.

Charming home for cozy family stay
So clean, comfortable, charming, and guest friendly. Things were labeled throughout the house for ease of guest use. Great layout, comfortable beds, and comfortable common area. Sarah even had an area of travel items for use if you left yours at home. We saw beautiful wild turkeys in the back yard! We loved that the home is dog friendly, however the place was so clean, you wouldn’t know that dogs had ever been in there. We would come back to this home again for sure! Just know the amenities section of home manual says there are 6 key cards for owner’s club and there are currently 5 key cards. We thought we had maybe lost one and spent some time looking for additional key card. Thanks so much for the use of your home Sarah! We really appreciate it.

Great girls getaway
There were five adult females ages 36-47. We loved the large table to play games, pig out on snacks and have cocktails. We had wild turkeys walk through the yard each morning, and even gobble back to us when we “talked” to them. We’d recommend this place anytime!!

Spring break with family
The host is amazing, very responsive, kind, and accommodating. The house was fantastic, very clean. The kids loved it and the location is close to the owners club and highway 20. The house is close to trails. We saw a lot of deer and turkey. Great location.

Nice place to stay!
We like this place! The bedrooms are spacious, the kitchen has everything you'd need, and the bathroom has a jet tub! The very cozy family room has a fireplace and Roku TV. The location is very good, clean, and quiet. The trail entry is about 50 yards away from the house. Recommend!

Perfect Cozy Stay!
Beautiful house that had perfect details with amenities and activities in the house! My friends and family and I stayed after skiing all day and it was a perfect place to relax with the fire and comfortable atmosphere. Can only imagine how nice/beautiful it is in the summer! Will have to come back!
