Nice property. It provided us with the space we needed to gather as a family. Loved that there are bedrooms on the main floor. Mattress in the left bedroom on main level needs to be replaced.

Great stay

Quiet location but close enough to Galena for an easy trip. Only issue was the coffee maker. With 6 coffee drinkers waiting 40 mins for a pot of coffee was annoying. But everything else was great. Highly recommend

Private escape with personality and pet friendly comfort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great experience staying at the rental in Galena Illinois the property was exactly as described on the website clean comfortable and dog friendly which was a huge Plus for us the furniture and beds were cozy and the space was beautifully decorated with especially enjoyed the eclectic art collection including pieces from France wine cork art and even a dart board that added a fun touch the location was peaceful and private yet conveniently close to the General Store a local restaurant and the golf course downtown Galena was a short 15 minute drive away make it an easy to explore while still enjoying the quiet of the property one small issue the coffee maker either needed instructions or wasn't working properly it took nearly 2 hours to brew in the coffee didn't taste right that aside everything else was smooth I had a couple of questions about accessing the website for my Android phone and the management was quick to respond and sent helpful PDF documents overall a lovely State and well managed property would definitely recommend

Great location for winter stay

Plenty of room and nice warm options for our ski trip with fireplace and hot tub. Loved the number of bathrooms for each room and it would be a great option for couples traveling together! The kitchen table has loose leafs which needs repair, but had a lovely stay.
