We had an amazing stay! The house was spotless, spacious, and perfect for a weekend getaway. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to cook in, and the hot tub was the highlight after long days exploring Galena. Every bedroom having its own ensuite was a huge plus. We’d definitely come back!

Over all a fantastic stay! The house was clean and the location was exactly what we wanted. Bathrooms in each bedroom is a great idea and now a must have for future rentals. The outdoor jacuzzi was nice after a long day of golf and the kitchen was well equipped. We really enjoyed the screened in porch and the outdoor deck with a grill. Brian was a great host and kept us well informed. Thanks!

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!

Family weekend getaway

This property was a great size for our group of 7 adults and 2 teens. The house was well stocked with paper products such as paper towel and toilet paper. Shampoo, body wash and conditioner was an unexpected but appreciated surprise. It was great to have a gas grill and there was even an extra tank ready to go if we needed it. The house is definitely a well used rental but the beds were comfortable and the space was great for our group! Brian was easy to communicate with and was helpful with getting golf passes to our rental before we arrived.

Great family weekend getaway

We recently stayed here with a large family, and it was the perfect place for a group getaway! The house was incredibly spacious, offering plenty of room for everyone to spread out while still having cozy common areas where we could gather. The bedrooms were comfortable, and we appreciated that many had en-suite bathrooms, which made mornings much more relaxed for our group. The kitchen was well-equipped and large enough for us to cook meals together, and the dining area easily accommodated our family for shared meals. The location was ideal for us, too – peaceful and scenic, yet close enough to stores and attractions so we never felt isolated. The owners were responsive and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. We highly recommend this house for families or groups looking for a comfortable, well-maintained home with plenty of space and all the amenities you could need for a relaxing stay!
