Fantastic Galena Stay

This was the perfect house for our family getaway! We didn’t even have to leave the property to have a great time! The cozy fire pit was so awesome! And we enjoyed a hike in on of the Galena Territory trails too. Thanks for the precious family memories we made this weekend.

Great getaway for family and friends

Our group had a great time and the house was large and roomy enough for our large group. The living room with view and fireplace is beautiful. Ginger was very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Tranquil Trails Vacation Rentals

After years dreaming and planning for a home that would remain in our family for generations, we finally decided to build a log house in Galena and, as they say, the rest is history! When building this home we were a family of 9. We are now a family of 18 and continue to enjoy every precious moment in this wonderful retreat. We wanted a home where lifelong family memories would be born… mission accomplished! We have celebrated many specially planned occasions as well as moments of sheer spontaneous laughter in this dream home and we aren’t finished yet! There is always something new to see and discover in this lush and lovely area. Introducing Galena to extended family and many friends has been a joy in itself.

Most of this home was handcrafted by our family of construction artists and remains our pride and joy. Now we would like to open our home to other families and groups of friends to forge traditions of their own. It is surprisingly easy to create loving memories when you are able to relax and leave the stress of your real life behind!

Why they chose this property

After years of consideration and planning, we decided building a custom home in the Galena Territory would be the best choice for our family. We anticipated the instant relaxation we would feel when walking in the front door. We carefully designed this home to provide the indoor and outdoor space required by our growing clan and our desire to remain close as a family.

Situated in a quiet, heavily wooded area of the Territory, our location offered the connection to nature that we desired. It would be a challenge to find a more breathtaking view of nature and it’s wildlife than the one built into this cabin.

What makes this property unique

Our home is a perfect base for activity filled days or lazy, do-nothing days! This retreat offers large groups the space to gather and reinforce family and friend connections, to share good times and some hearty laughter. If every now and then you would like a little privacy, there are plenty of nooks where you can hide away for a few moments to re-connect with yourself!
