Family Getaway

This house was a great find for our family getaway. Plenty of room for our party of 8 (including three adult children, spouses and a grandchild). Large dining room table for meals and games, plenty of seating options in the living room, and a bedroom for everyone. A Christmas tree was a nice touch! Added bonus, the house is within walking distance to the Galena shopping area-eliminating the need to try to find a place to park which can be next to impossible at times. Highly recommend.

accommodates large group

We had 8 in our group of an all-girl 3 generation family annual Xmas trip during the luminary's weekend. The house was so close to Main Street, we were able to walk downtown. Because of this, we were able to come and go as needed as there were different agendas with a large group. Lovely house with plenty of room and comfortable beds There was a large table to accommodate all of us to eat together and play cards. Kitchen well stocked with everything needed for meals. Prompt response from host when needed.
