Memorial Day Weekend
A group of 9 adults and 2 children enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient to Galena and offers use of association amenities such as the clubhouse/pools. The home layout with private rooms and ample bathrooms were ideal for our group, giving everyone their own space. The kitchen had plenty of utensils and cookware which facilitated us cooking in. We would recommend this property to others.

Girls weekend getaway
Enjoyed the beautiful and spacious property with lovely views and a quiet neighborhood. Had a lot of fun with our own happy hour in the pub downstairs. The kitchen’s ample seating made it a perfect gathering when cooking going on in the well stocked kitchen. Something special about being in a hot tub outside in the crisp air of winter. Emily and Kevin were responsive to our questions and needs. Had a great time shopping in Galena. Highly recommend.

Family Get Together
The house was very accommodating to a large family gathering. Living fairly close to this location we had people coming and going and always had plenty of room for food and games. Some went skiing, some went downtown Galena and others just enjoyed the house, resort and each others company.

Beautiful Home
We rented this home for a sibling reunion. One of the reasons we chose this home was that each bedrooms had their own private bathroom. The house was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The layout worked well for us.
One thing I would recommend is bringing your own spices, seasonings & tin foil.

Six of us enjoyed our stay! Spacious rooms and wonderful hot tub, thank you! A couple oddities were the main floor showers weren't intuitive to turn on and stumped us, and the rules stated we needed to use plastic glasses in hot tub but there weren't any. Also would've been nice to have a few basic staples like Pam spray or oil, etc.

overall impression very good. Main floor bedroom with attached sitting room had one floor vent that was putting out warm air when the A/C was being used - had to close that vent entirely to keep the warm air out.

Beautiful Galena territory
Long weekend with old friends. The house is very accommodating for a large group. A lot of space, beds, bathrooms. It could use some updating. I few things didn’t work properly and outside maintenance was needed. It was very clean and plenty of amenities.

Lovely home in a beautiful setting
Amazing home for a family vacation. It was decorated in beautiful style and there’s plenty of room outside in the back to set up games like bags. Owners were very responsive to questions and it was a pleasure dealing with them. Nice hot tub in the back. It came with some passes to the Association pool and club house (2 pools - indoor and outdoor) and is close to Galena and some hiking areas. Highly recommend this place.

The property manager was very responsive to the small issues we had & very gracious. The only issue was not enough aminity tags as stated in website.
