We really enjoyed our stay in this townhome. It was comfortable, clean, and the views were fantastic! It was equipped with everything we needed for cooking and also offered games and books to read. Would definitely stay here again.
We had an amazing stay! The home was absolutely beautiful, cozy, and spotless. It was clear that everything was well cared for, and we felt comfortable from the moment we arrived. The peaceful setting and beautiful views made it the perfect place to relax, and we especially enjoyed spending time on the deck. The host was very responsive, friendly, and made the entire experience seamless. Everything we needed was provided, and the home was exactly as described. We made wonderful memories here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and relaxing getaway!

Let me just say: the photos don't do this property justice. Everything was cozy and comfy, including the couch (that reclines) and the beds (that were nice and plush). Even the outdoor lounging was a dream.

Excellent place for mid week get away. The home was super clean and the furnishings lovely and updated. We LOVED the couch! We thought we had a blown fuse in the bathroom. Maintenance was there within the hour to check it out.
One of the easiest rentals and nicest we've stayed in in 20 years going to the Galena Territory! We did not get to enjoy the nice view and patio furniture unfortunately due to weather, but we still loved the unit! Thank you :)

Reviewer Comments:
The townhouse was beautiful and tastefully decorated. The back deck offered a spectacular view of one the golf courses, flight of a hot air balloon and wild turkeys.We had one issue - the only containers/dishes suitable for the microwave were 7-inch paper plates. The serving dishes (plates and bowls) were melamine and other bowls and containers were plastic.A reminder to housekeeping: clean and sanitize the garbage disposal splash guard.
This place is very nice to stay in for the long weekend.Everything was very comfortable.The golf hole view was entertaining. Easy access to Galena.The owner club pool was extremely crowded, so that was not the greatest but I’m sure it’s not always that busy.Thanks for the nice stay
