Large space, great getaway
We were a group of two families with 5 kids total ranging in ages from 12-17. We enjoyed our time at the home and everyone had enough space. The teens walked over to the club house to play basketball and hang out. I wish we were closer to walking paths that weren’t in the full sun, but we ended up driving to one in the territory and it was a beautiful walk. We had some questions while were were there and the management company always answered promptly.

Great Staycation!
This property was perfect for our girlfriend (9) get together. Very spacious home, clean, easy access. Great accommodations-extra chairs outside for the fire pit and appreciated the plentiful wood for the bonfire, beach towels for the hot tub also much appreciated. We definitely recommend this rental property. Completely satisfied with everything.

We enjoyed celebrating! 3 out of 9 of us were celebrating our 70th birthdays! What a fabulous place to do that. With 5 bedrooms and 5 private bathrooms we were well accommodated. The fire pit was a nice way to wind down after enjoying all the sites and adventures Galena had to offer. We loved it!

Wonderful house!
This was the best house I have ever rented. It was the perfect size for our family (8 adults, 4 children) and was spotless. The kitchen/dining area was very spacious and well equipped. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed the large yard space and the fire pit The pool table was a hit with all. There was a bird nest near the hot tub with very protective birds, but it was removed right away when we called about it. The pool was very close and family friendly. Our grandkids loved it (ages 5,4,3,3). Great house, would definitely come back!

Boys golf trip. 8 of us stayed in the house and it was great. Perfect setup and amenities. Only downside, we planned on grilling one night but the grill was not working properly as it had a bad gas leak. Otherwise, great place!

Perfect for large family getaway
The home was perfect for our large (10) person getaway. The home was MORE than adequate for ourselves and our three adult children and their spouses, and also my parents joined us for a couple of days. With the attached bathrooms to every bedroom there was never a bathroom waiting issue. As we ate in for our meals most nights, we were delighted with the size of the kitchen and how well stocked it was (and stocked with tableware for larger groups). The dining table was also able to accommodate our group of ten. We had golfers in our group and the passes that were at the VRBO saved us several dollars during our stay. Very peaceful setting with decks and sunrooms and porches to enjoy the outdoor setting. Our only negative is there was some misunderstanding as to where to access the checkin info which caused some frustration. This particular VRBO uses multiple platforms to access this info, not just the VRBO app like we’ve had in the past. Would we stay again? Yes!

Perfect house for Girls’ Weekend
We were so impressed with this house! This is our fourth time renting in Galena and this was by far the best we’ve stayed in. The five bedrooms all with their own bathrooms was perfect for our group of 8 friends. And we were amazed at how generously stocked the kitchen was. We went looking for a ladle and found five! The wood burning fireplace was such a cozy addition. We’ll definitely choose this house again.
