This condo is a perfect fit for a quiet, relaxing weekend. It is very comfy and cozy The kitchen is stocked with everything needed for cooking a meal, and they even supply soap and shampoo in both bathrooms. The weather wasn’t great to be outside, but the back deck is very peaceful and private even tho it is in a row of condos. I wish I could have spent more time out on the deck! Kristen was very responsive and great to talk to about the property. Would definitely recommend staying here for a visit to Galena!
We definitely loved our stay in this home. It was cozy and the host was very communicative. We will definitely be back the next time we can escape our normal lives!
