Host Chioma was fantastic. House was full of great amenities - never a dull moment with theatre, golf simulator, hot tub, fire pit, ping pong, pool, bags, and on and on. Also provided great coffee, all the kitchen amenities you can think of, etc. This is a very well appointed home.

Incredible home, amazing host

We have been coming to Galena in group vacations for almost 20 years. This was the nicest house we've ever stayed at, and the most attentive, communicative, and helpful host. The home is so beautifully decorated with everything you'd ever need. The spaces were open, clean, airy, and comfortable. The movie theater and golf simulator were so much fun. We loved it all!

Gorgeous house with something for everyone

We made a last minute booking at this gorgeous property and we will definitely be back! The house is even more beautiful in person and the amenities provide something for everyone. We thoroughly enjoyed the movie room and golf simulator! The kitchen has everything you would need to cook with including spices.

Beautiful, resort like home!

Had an incredible stay at this home. The home is so well thought out and equipped with anything you might need. Having a full bath with every bedroom was such a nice treat. And having 5 bedrooms with king beds meant no arguing over who got what room! Full over full bunk in the kids’ room was awesome as well! We used the movie theater/golf simulator a ton, and the hot tub was perfect. Star gazing at night on the deck was my favorite part. The house was new, very clean, and the owners were super responsive. Will be back again soon!!

Casa de Galena was amazing! Secluded for privacy with nature trails. Outside fire pit and games for the whole family. Inside was amazing- beautifully decorated and clean with everything you need as if your own home. Smart TV’s in every room, golf simulator and movie theater was a total hit for the kids and family; also having the multi game table of pool and ping pong. Host was so easy to communicate with at all times- polite , pleasant and anything needed was right on top of it! We are definitely coming back!

We have stayed at several rentals in the Galena Territories. This home has a wonderful floor plan in a private setting. So many options for entertainment/activities to choose from: fire pit, hot tub, golf simulator, ping pong table, movie theater and ample room to gather for a meal or to visit (a large indoor and also an outdoor table). We did not have time to enjoy them all! The host was generous with the supplies and even had the coffee bar stocked with ground coffee, keurig pods, sugar and flavored syrup. Our grandchildren LOVED the bunk room. Having an upstairs and downstairs washer and dryer was really great. We really appreciated the easy instructions upon leaving. No taking garbage to the garbage station as we had to do at some other rentals. The hosts were also very good at communicating with us. Some of our extended family stayed at another rental and came by to see ours and commented that they would like to stay here on future trips.

We wanted to make group stays as easy and enjoyable as possible, so it’s wonderful to hear those details made a difference. We’d love to host your family again and hopefully you’ll have time to enjoy everything on the next visit!

Extended family stay for long weekend-(Ages 78-8 years old)

Property was just beautiful, quiet and peaceful. We celebrated our daughter's 30th bday w/ grandparents, aunt, uncle, cousins and siblings. SO MUCH to do at the house, really do not need to leave. Each room is well thought out, bedrooms w/ baths, large kitchen where we cooked several meals, and golf simulator, also watch football games on the big screen. Loved our time there, and will be planning another stay soon hopefully! The host, Chioma, was excellent! Any questions we had she was very responsive, and helped out last minute w/ a glitch in the coffee pot not working, had a new one delivered right away. We have rented homes all over the country for several years for our extended family vacations, and Chioma was the by far the best!

We loved the house. Very clean. So much to do. We were here three nights but not long enough. The golf simulator was a big hit. Rooms are spacious and great to have en- suite barhrooms. Kitchen well stocked with everything you need for cooking. Excellent location and very private.
