Huge Luxury Home, Panoramic Views from wall of windows, Hot Tub, Fire Pit.

**Vrbo has recently changed the way it displays pricing. The "Host Fee" is the cleaning fee. We do not charge any other fees.

This is our #1 rental home, and one look at the pictures will show you why. Enjoy some of the best views in the Territory from the one-of-a-kind 3-story wall of windows featured in this 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath home set back on a hill above the Shenandoah Valley. This home is immaculate, perfectly maintained, and decorated in the contemporary style you want. If you've stayed here before, you'll find that the owners of this home are well on their way to updating the entire home. With 4000 square feet of living space, this is a home that will give you more than enough room for everyone.
When you enter the home, the 2-story great room with its wall of windows will take your breath away. The large gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances will accommodate all the cooks in your group, and there are two dining areas so that everyone can have their own chair. This is only the main level, but it offers space for everyone to be together, whether they want to sit and enjoy the fireplace, prepare and enjoy a meal, or watch television in the adjacent den, all while enjoying the light and view that seem to be right in the home with you.
The main-level master bedroom offers the same great views from the king size bed, and the master bath is truly a wonder to behold with a whirlpool tub and a walk-in shower with 5 spray heads. The master bedroom is adjacent to the rear deck and hot tub, and it also has its own balcony to enjoy the view. The upper level loft bedroom soars high above the rest of the home and feels like a private bedroom. It features a queen bed, a bath with a shower, and a balcony overlooking the hot tub and firepit. There are two bedrooms in the lower level, each with the same stunning view as you get from the rest of the home. The lower king bedroom has an adjacent full bath and its own patio area. The twins bedroom has its own bath and a walk in closet.
The lower level family room is all new, with a 65” flat screen television, surround sound, DVD player, and Bluetooth sound speaker for streaming your music. The pit group couch is large and sumptuous, and there are two other chairs and a table that form a nice conversation area. Wherever you sit in the room, you’ll enjoy the view and the warmth of the fireplace. If you want something cooler, there’s also a wet bar with a refrigerator.
The rear deck with its large hot tub provides a great place to relax, and the firepit next to the deck is a great place to gather in the evening. This home offers a propane grill and we provide enough propane for normal usage. Please note that all grills are as is and may not work as well as your grill at home. Back inside, there is high-speed internet with wifi, telephone service, and Directv satellite service for every television.
This home books up fast – don’t wait too long to reserve your dates!

Perfect Galena stay!
We loved this property! Perfect for an extended weekend getaway with our 3yo and the grandmas. Incredibly clean property with beautiful views and a very well stocked kitchen, which was much appreciated! Enjoyed the fire pit and enjoyed taking our pup on walks on the idyllic roads. Only—very minor—issue was that there were no curtains in the kids room with twin beds, so midday nap was a bit of an improvise to try to block the sun. Otherwise, we enjoyed relaxing on the property and enjoying Galena and surrounding area. Will definitely keep it in mind for future!

Beautiful home! Everyone really enjoyed the stay. Home was generally clean but deep cleaning of light fixtures, carpets, outdoor grill and vents would be nice. The threshold between the primary bathroom and closet should be repaired since carpet tacks are exposed. The bottom rack of the dishwasher appears to have a missing piece that makes sliding the rack in and out a challenge. I only mention these things since I would want to know as the home owner. Everyone greatly enjoyed the stay. Tracey was very responsive and the home is really lovely - perfect for our large family to get together. We very much enjoyed our stay and would stay again in the future.

Galena Getaway
The house was the perfect size for our group. It felt we had space to spread out and the common area were also comfortable. We enjoyed the amenities offered for guests in the territory and the location of the house was nice and in a peaceful, quiet area.

Lovely large home!
This is a fantastic place to rent. Ideally situated near the Shenandoah Riding Stables at the Territory in Galena. It had everything we needed, but be sure to pack your own shampoo and conditioner, Kleenex, coffee, etc. This rental has both an automatic drip coffee maker and a Keurig. Plenty of dishes, pots and pans, cups, glassware, and tableware are available. Although we didn't use the hot tub this visit, the owner has provided a great supply of beach towels.
