Friends Retreat
This house had all the things. I rented this house for 6 women for our yearly friends retreat, in Galena. First, the house was very clean with crisp white linens and towels, even the ceiling fans were relatively dust free! The house had a transitional style decor which is not the usual in the Galena area. The several gathering areas were spacious yet cozy, enough living room, dining room, patio chairs, hot tub space, bathrooms, and sleeping space for everyone. This area of Galena is on the south side of the territories which happens to be my preferred side as it is a little quieter and more spaced out. There was a trail head directly off the back yard! The house even had a map of the trails which was super helpful. A lot of small touches that made the house feel homey. The only thing that was a tad confusing is that the property manager utilizes their own web app and email system for communication instead of the VRBO platform. Regardless, the information in the managements app was very detailed. We will be booking this for next year as soon as we get our dates set.

Great choice for VRBO
Beautiful inside and out. 8 adults had plenty of room. Game room is a blast! We had Foosball tournaments. Played their games and our own board games both in cool loft game room, kitchen table and out on deck. Again plenty of room for 8. Cards cards cards too! So many laughs. Bonfires, smores made at firepit. More than enough room due to 5 chairs and rocks cleverly laid for optimal seating. Day trip to downtown but spent most of our time making memories at the house. We would definately go back!

Was one of the best stays in the Territory
We have stayed at least 10 different houses in Galena Territory and this was our most favorite. We had 2 of our older kids, 20 & 23 and then our 20 month old and 5 year old and my folks too. It was perfect! The fire pit was lovely and looked really new, and the hot tub was nice too the boys loved it. It was really setup well with all 3 bedrooms having their own full bathroom. The game room upstairs was super fun too, I can't remember the last time I played Pac Man :-) thank you for a lovely time.

High Ridge in Galena
Property was great, access to the club is a plus, close to Galena and restaurants and there is a BBQ grill and hot tub, all excellent. Only downside is the fire wood supplied for the fire pit. Like little trees and no kindling to start any kind of fire. We had to go buy firewood, not expected.

Great getaway for families and couples.
My wife and I enjoyed our stay. Lots of space, comfy beds and couches, great game loft, and large hot tub. Easy to get to many activities in the Galena territory. Owners were clear with instructions for arrival and departure.

Girlfriend Getaway
The five of us thoroughly enjoyed two nights at this rental. There were enough beds and baths to accommodate us and the kitchen was well equipped for preparing meals. The woods behind the house made for a serene backdrop for enjoying time on the deck and in the hot tub. I would definitely recommend staying at this home!

Amazing getaway
We brought our boys to Galena for a quick trip over Spring Break. Every part of the house was perfect for our needs; game room, hot tub, beds in rooms, access to pools, etc. We will absolutely be staying at this house again!
