What a beautiful property! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The location is great, being close to Galena. The views are amazing, overlooking the valley, hearing the cows in the distance. Loved all of the birds, which entertained us during the whole stay. We will be back soon!

Everything about this property was cozy, and the view is breathtaking. Would definitely recommend if you don't mind being off the beaten path outside of town. It's worth the little extra drive for the peaceful setting.

Bird House Stay 2024

Wonderful views, clean, great inside and out. The sunrise, vineyard and rolling hills views were wonderful. The owner was very kind to stop by and make sure we received a bottle of the wine he made from the grapes in the Vineyard. I could stay there for weeks.

Stay at the Bird cottage

Such a peaceful and relaxing stay, that gets you away from the big city feeling, and appreciate all that a countryside provides, star gazing, bird watching, deer, cows, beautiful sunrises, wine from the vineyard, and evening campfire. If you are looking for a peaceful place to get away from your daily hustle this is the place for you.

Cozy stay

The only thing that we were surprised at was by how fast the turn came up for the house, but once we flew by one time, we were prepared and it was easy to find after that.It is a very cute, clean and cozy place. I was wishing we were there in nicer weather as the view is spectacular, and the fire pit and grill area were very nice.Loved the paths that were mown into the field for easy exploring.It was a very easy distance to town, and everything about our stay was just easy.

Great Family Getaway from the City

The entire property was just as expected! The pictures are 100% accurate. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the layout of the house is adorable/perfect. We were also so happy to see some snow during the New Years weekend. We had a blast sledding down the side of the property! Jolene was super helpful during the booking process and answered all of my questions and requests.
