Serene and Relaxing
Our trip to Apple River was perfect! The house was just as described with everything that we could need. The location was great, far enough away from the city so we could enjoy some peace and quiet, but close enough to spend a busy day shopping in Galena. We highly recommend this property!

Great Cabin
Perfect cabin for a getaway. Conveniently located between several spots of interest in the area like Galena and Oak Hill Farm. Cabin was super clean and beds were comfortable. Just wish we were there longer to enjoy it more.

Cabin in the Woods
If you love rustic this is truly your vacation home. During the day the house was a bit dark and we found spider webs between the blinds and the window sill. The cleaning people should be made aware. At night with the lights on the house was a welcoming gathering spot where we cooked together and played cards. The house amenities state there is a TV. However there is neither cable or dish TV which was quite disappointing. Spending all day out exploring it would have been nice to have the opportunity to sit down and watch TV. Not DVDs. Something to think about! The owners were easy to work with and responded promptly to any questions.

Rustic Log Cabin Charm
The log cabin has a lot of space and volume. Three bedrooms that can sleep at least 8 people. The large surround deck is great for quiet relaxing or a loud game of UNO . Tcampfire

Amazing cabin
Beautiful cabin! The listing was not at all misleading. The kitchen was well stocked with spices, pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc. Beds and furniture were comfortable. Phone service was a little spotty for AT&T. The hosts were communicative and kind. Would 100% recommend or return.

Family weekend
The location was great for us being only 10 minutes away from our relatives place. Our grand daughter who’s 4 loved the bunk bed. We had everything we needed. Comfortable beds and very clean. No TV service so we had to watch the USA volleyball final game on our laptop but we knew that they had no TV service. Plenty of tags provided for the pool.

Cozy Cabin
The host was excellent about responding when needed, which was primarily prior to our stay. The house was very clean inside and on the deck. We loved sitting on the raised deck and listening to the birds. The home was a little further from the marina than tan our previous rentals, a scenic 10 minute drive. This home allows dogs but you would never know that dogs stay in the home. Again, super clean and cozy.

What a beautiful cabin. We loved the ambiance of this beautiful piece of land in the woods. It was close to shopping in Galena, had the pool and beach access, and plenty of walking trails. I wish we could have stayed longer.
