We’re from Wisconsin, and this is our retreat too! We put our passion into making this a clean, peaceful and uncluttered respite. We love hearing guests feedback and experiences.

Why they chose this property

Nature in the driftless area!!!! The glaciers didn’t flatten the landscape. And it’s close to Historic Galena, plus we have access to Galena Territory amenities like the Owners Club (pools, game room, gym), equestrian facilities, golf, trails and the lake.

What makes this property unique

There are a variety of landscapes and options in Galena. This one is wooded, elevated, private but still accessible. Birds, squirrels, deer and other creatures are common on our property.
