Annual Girls Trip

The property was very clean and welcoming with a wonderful coffee bar, plenty of towels and other necessities. We enjoyed playing games at the large table and watching the hummingbirds and other birds in this beautiful location. I would highly recommend this property.

The location was great. The HUGE fenced in yard was paradise for our pupster and we couldn’t drag my son away from the fire pit. Easy access, fast communication and plenary of room inside and out makes this one a keeper for us. We will definitely be back.

Great location for relaxing and reconnecting!

The house is a great location. Our group was 3 couples and there was enough room for each couple to have privacy but also great space to come together and enjoy each other’s company.

Galena trip

We stayed at a beautiful home with an amazing backyard! We enjoyed our stay and we had the perfect place to relax and have a great time. Our host was fantastic and we had everything we needed to cook, grill relax and just have fun. I highly recommend Joseph’s home. I know we would love to stay here again someday.

Short getaway

This was such a nice quick getaway with the family! It was so nice to be able to bring our dogs with us!! We don’t travel much because it’s not always easy to find pet sitters but this was great and a big back yard for them to run in!

Good time had by all!

We loved our clean and cozy VRBO house. The kids loved the ping-pong table and Connect 4. The fenced-in yard for our dog was amazing and we loved the fire pit as well! Highly recommend!

Austin Family Golf Outing

We spent a few days in Galena, where we went to the rodeo, played golf, strolled the trails, and spent quality time with our family by the pool. Our time away from home was wonderful. The mattresses were incredibly comfy, and the property was beautifully decorated and hospitable. We had an amazing time. We are grateful to the owners of the property for sharing their lovely house.

Getaway before Christmas

House was perfect! Extremely clean and very comfortable. We loved having the fireplace and the fenced yard was a treat for our dog. The owners have made this house a lovely escape. We would absolutely come back- would love to be there in a season to enjoy the screened porch and firepit!

Great property for friends to gather

The place was perfect for us. Each couple had their own floor/bedroom/bathroom. We cooked every night and the kitchen had what we needed. There was wood ready for the fire pit. The ping pong and Pac-man games were a bonus! Also the host was very responsive. We’ll return!

Family Get Away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cozy Home! Our adult children and in-loves met us for a much needed get-away with quality time spent together. The house was perfect for three couples having their own bed/baths, fenced in yard for our dogs & playing games at the dining room table/living room TV. Joe was responsive and accommodating to our requests, house was clean, beds were super comfortable & the coffee bar/welcome basket were a hit! We enjoyed Galena, the Territory & surrounding area. Thank you!!

Spring break

Our family enjoyed our stay . The home and property are lovely. All linens and bath towels were fresh.My only complaint is an extra kitchen towel or 2 would have been nice( the one there was actually a linen napkin) and the pots could stand to be replaced. The 2 big fry pans were worn and stained and a small fry pan for eggs and saucepans for boiling noodles would have been nice but we made do. Very minor inconvenience. We’d stay again though. Thank you for sharing your home.

Great home and location! All beds and pillows were comfortable, kitchen well stocked with essentials for cooking, and coffee bar was a nice touch. You cannot tell from the listing photos but the split rail fence also has wire mesh preventing dogs from sneaking out. Laundry detergent was a blessing given we had two babies under 1yr old with us! The fact that paper towels, dish soap, hand soap, hand lotion, body wash, toilet paper, bath towels, fans, dog bowls, dog towels, and more were all supplied and available to us made this the best VRBO stay our family has experienced to date.
