The property was clean & so cute! There was plenty of firewood & cooking supplies to make our stay special! We enjoyed using the guest passes to swim and play ping pong-and since it was a Thursday, we practically had the place to ourselves. We will definitely stay again!

The unit was clean, updated and family friendly. For the price we were very pleased with our stay. It was quiet, loved the pool for our 2 year old and the location was a short drive from downtown Galena. It was a perfect trip for our young family.

The location was so beautiful! The hills and trees and beauty were amazing. So peaceful. The pool at the owners club was worth the drive-warm lap lanes. In the summer I bet the outdoor pool is awesome too. At the unit, The towels were soft and cushy, there was good coffee, shampoo and condo smelled great. Everything you could want when away from home.

We loved the property! Space was very clean. Plenty of room for the 4 of us. The only complaint would be the mattresses in the bedrooms are very firm and it was not the most comfortable for sleeping. Kitchen was well stocked with items for cooking.

Upon opening the door, we were delighted with this little getaway. The host has gone above and beyond in anticipating any need guest. From the extremely well stocked kitchen to the snacks and bottled water awaiting us on arrival to the comfortable furniture, everything worked together to help us have just a lovely and relaxing weekend. The beds were comfy, showers had great pressure and the AC kept us cool despite the crazy temperatures! We were able to head over and enjoy the swimming pools along with the gorgeous view from the pool. We are so hoping to book again for the same weekend next year and will definitely return to this little Creekside gem!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was clean and comfortable. We had our 2 kids with us for a weekend getaway. Especially loved that the owner even labeled the light/fan switches. Not a huge deal, but it was something small that we really appreciated. Would definitely stay here again if we plan something in the area!

We had 20 members of our family for the 4th of July get together in Galena. Two of us own places but we needed more beds, so we rented 32 Creekwood. It was perfect. We were very happy to have more refrigerator space.

We stayed in Galena with another couple to enjoy the fall colors. This property was a great location for us and just the right space for two couples. The drive in the Galena Territories is really lovely and it was nice to be a few minutes outside the touristy town. We wish there had been a fire pit or even a hot tub - the weather was perfect for both! But we had a great time playing cards/games and stargazing. We even used the deck for happy hour since the weather allowed. The place is cute, updated, very clean and super comfortable. The communication with the hosts was very easy and clear. I would absolutely stay at this place again if we go back to the Galena area.

Though only 1000+ sq ft, it felt roomy. A well thought out floor plan and sitting on the deck was lovely as there was shade from early afternoon thru the evening. Specifics - wonderful bath towels, well written instructions for checking in and out, and for things to do; comfortable furniture, beds, linens and pillows. The entertainment system was easy to use; the kitchen was well appointed with good dishware, glass ware and silverware; individual sugar and creamer for coffee (not just a Keurig or drip coffee maker, but both); 3 bottles of water and assorted snack goodies; well written instructions for starting a good wood fire in the indoor fireplace, and a gas grill that, I'm sure for safety reasons, was unhooked from the propane tank. From the looks of the outside of the unit we were in and the unit nearby, and the interior of our unit, they are well taken care of, including recently replacing older wood railings on the deck with nice looking aluminum railings. The management company was quick to respond both before and during our stay. Overall we highly recommend staying here.

The house was very clean and stocked with everything you need. The management company was very quick in answering any questions I had. We mostly went to downtown Galena during the day, but did enjoy walking the hills throughout the neighborhood in the morning and sitting on the porch in the evening. Trying to figure out a time to return and stay in the same property with my family and enjoy the amenities that are offered.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented one unit thru the hotel, which was fine, and 2 thru another company. It was a family vacation. I have rarely worked with such a disorganized management company. After trying to reach the rental company, they final returned my call 2 days before our arrival, just to tell me they had sold the property we had put the money down on more than a year earlier

8/10

Was beautiful and very, very clean. It had everything we needed. Directions said to briing bedding for the sofa bed and there was the necessary bedding there. So what we brought was a waste of time. It was recommended we bring paper goods. Again, not needed. Wifi was not good. Expected it to be closer to the owners club where the pool was. We had to drive there. The pool was very crowded. Not as close to Galena as I expected. Overall it was very comfortable.

Amazing! Even better than the description. Such an amazing place to stay and excellent communication with the property manager. We will definitely be going back. We stayed 2 nights but that was not long enough. Next time we plan on going for a week! This property is the type of place all you need to bring is your clothes and a toothbrush (honestly they even had toothbrushes and toothpaste too lol). We couldn't believe all the extras they had for us in the home. Board games, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, cleaning supplies, laundry soap, water, snacks, cards, dice, books omg the list goes on and on!!!! I can't say anything bad about the property or the management company! Our code for the door didn't work so i called and they changed the code remotely and we were in within 2 minutes. I can't say enough good things about this place and the company

The property was clean and thoughtfully stocked. It had everything we needed, including soft towels, plenty of board games, a lovely coffee bar with a selection of coffee, teas and snacks. We were especially appreciative of the fireplace and wood since we traveled in the winter.
