The three-bedroom, three-bath townhome comes with plenty of coziness and comfort. Each bedroom and bath are situated on a different floor. The dramatic first floor primary bedroom features a soaring four-poster bed and an attached master bath. On the upper level you’ll find a lovely loft bedroom with two twin beds, adjoining sitting room with open view to the dining area below, and private bath while the lower-level bedroom sports a queen-sized bed and quick access to a nearby hall bath. A queen sofa sleeper is available in the game room for the late-night players.

Other must-mention home features include a fully-equipped galley kitchen, separate dining area and a cushy living room with central fireplace, all on the main floor. Here as in the rest of the home, furnishings lean toward hearty and rustic (leather seating included!). Outdoors there both a lower patio and upper deck, the latter sporting a handy gas grill and outdoor dining table.

And now for the home’s piece de resistance: a lower-level, fully-furnished game room boasting plenty to do – featuring an electronic dart board, soccer table game, video games, game/card table, putting “green” and a challenging “Four in a Row” game. Completing the list of pluses are the home’s proximity to the Eagle Ridge Resort, Stonedrift Spa, as well as the property’s balloon launch area. Gaze at the spectacle!

Amazing Weekend Getaway!

The location was gorgeous, the neighbors (when you briefly saw them) were really friendly and the house was so comfortable and inviting. Would stay at this location again!

Comfortable for large groups

There were 7 of us, but we all had our own private spaces to escape to. We all slept well with 2 queens, twin beds and a sofa bed. Kitchen was tight when there was more than one cook, but we managed. Two out seating areas helped expand the place. About a 15 minute drive to downtown Galena, but the member clubhouse, which you drive to, had more than enough activities. Would stay longer than 2 nights next time.

Girls trip

Everything about the property was amazing. We had a very relaxing and fun stay. The electronic part of the dartboard didn't work and the foosball table was broken, but we didn't really play those.

Family Hiking Trip

We needed a place that was a convenient halfway meeting point for our families. This house is perfect for a group because each bedroom has its own bathroom. There is plenty of space and lots to do in the house. The neighborhood is beautiful with plenty of hiking trails. What a wonderful, quick fall getaway.

What a great rental with a lot of small welcoming touches. Plenty of wood for the fireplace, a basket of snacks, fully stocked kitchen, paper goods were provided, soft towels and really comfy beds! The game room has everything you need to stay occupied on bad weather days. I would stay here again!

Great place for families and friends

It was our annual girls’ weekend and this place did not disappoint. We loved how it was decorated. And we had plenty of space to spread out. It was also walking distance from the spa which was very convenient and a plus. Thank you for a lovely stay. We would definitely stay again.

Beautiful property, clean and well maintained. There are 2 decks to sit outside when the weather is nice but plenty of games in case of inclement weather. We had a great time just hanging out at the property. Great communication and very responsive even when you ask stupid questions! Highly recommend

The home is very clean & comfortable. Bed on the main-level is quite high. Might mention this in Vrbo description. We planned for my 89 year-old Mom to stay on the main level, but the bed was too high. Otherwise, very nice stay. About 15 minute drive to downtown Galena.

Cute Spot In Quiet Area

I traveled there with four kiddos (ages between 6-9), sister in law, and mother in law. It was big enough for all of us to have our own spaces but definitely a good size for all of us to enjoy time together. The kiddos loved the pool and it was a great trip! We were there for the Halloween parade festivities, hiking with goats (highly recommend) and anything else that jumped out that weekend. It was a great weekend away and we got to see a hot air balloon take off - exciting for kids and adults!

Fun getaway

Property met all our expectations. Townhouse was clean and well stocked with the essentials. Plenty of clean towels and bedding for a larger group. My husband and I traveled with 6 older teen girls as a small getaway for my daughter as a graduation/ before starting college trip. The girls had a fabulous time hiking the property and staying entertained by the various games in the rec room. Have already recommended the place to friends and will definitely be returning !

Great location

The location was great. The home was great. Just two minor issues that stopped from giving 5 stars: (1) When we arrived at the property the air was not on and it was 85 degrees in the unit. Being that hot it didn't cool down until later that evening, and (2) wifi and cellular connection was pretty spotty throughout our stay. Otherwise, the home is great and we enjoyed our stay.

Girls Get Away

Property is extremely clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need, beds are comfortable overall one of the nicest places I have rented. Location is great, can walk to the inn, spa and lakefront. To me it is perfect for families that the kids can have their own space in the game room. Space is a little tight when having all adults and trying to be in one area, but we did fine. Owners club pool was very much appreciated! Little hot first night - took a while for air conditioning to cool upper area, particularly the loft, but everyone was comfortable on night 2. Overall had a great weekend. Thank you!

We had a great long weekend!

We stayed for a long weekend with our teenage boys (ranging in age from 15-18) to snowboard on Chestnut Mountain. We had an amazing time! A scenic 20 minute drive to Chestnut Mountain. Loved the lay out (bedrooms on different floors) and allowed everyone to have their space. The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked our breakfast and dinner there each day. The large crockpot was very handy as we could put our dinner in the crock pot in the morning and have dinner waiting for us when we got back! The boys loved the foosball table! They also really loved the ping pong table and pool tables up at the owner’s club! Great weekend and would recommend!
