Great Stay!

We had our annual family vacation at this property. It was the perfect home for our needs. The bedrooms and bathrooms accommodated our three families really well. We also really enjoyed the screened room and deck. It is located close to the Owner’s Club which we took advantage of as well. Also the property owners were extremely easy to communicate with and we hope to stay there again.

Great place for family gathering

This was the perfect home for our family gathering! We had so much room to hang out and the dining table was amazing. This was the best-supplied VRBO I’ve ever stayed in - it had everything! The ability to use the owners club was fantastic and the house was just a short drive from downtown. The hosts were communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. We loved our stay and would book again if we return to Galena.

Jess is an amazing host, who answered every inquiry immediately and communicated all instructions for occupying the residence in a timely and thoughtful manner. The property is in excellent condition, with very thoughtful and complete amenities, for cooking, bathing, entertainment, etc. Everything you could want was carefully planned for. We had 12 people (7 adults and 5 teenagers) and everyone had a great time. The dining table was a highlight for our family, as we were all able to enjoy meals together. The Wi-Fi and the streaming service for all of the TV's all worked flawlessly. Should the occasion arise, we would definitely rent this property again, and will highly recommend it to family and friends.

Our family enjoyed being able to extend our time together over the Holiday at your property. It was large enough for all of us to be together and had plenty of room to spread out if we wanted to. Thank you for this opportunity to make memories that will last a lifetime.
