We had a wonderful stay! The home was cozy, welcoming, and absolutely perfect for our girls' trip. There was plenty of space for all of us to gather, relax, and make memories together, while still offering enough room for everyone to spread out and enjoy some quiet time when needed.The photos online simply do not do this property justice—it is even more beautiful in person. The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a fantastic weekend. Its location was also ideal, just a quick 15-minute drive to downtown Galena, making it easy to explore the area while still enjoying a peaceful retreat.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

Stayed here with my 4 siblings and all our spouses. The property itself was great--nestled well into the landscaping and very nicely decorated! The great room / kitchen / screened-in porch / deck areas gave a very open feeling, which is great for a large group. Also nice to have a bathroom for each room! However, the carpeting (in the downstairs area particularly) smelled very strongly of pet urine. There were countless spots on the carpet itself that looked as if someone half-tried to clean it, but was unsuccessful. Being a dog-friendly home does not equate to urine stains / smells being at all acceptable. When I did reach out to inform about the situation, I was basically dismissed and told it is not the problem of the place, but instead with my own sensitivities. Again, when 5 groups of 2 people arrive at different times and all smell the same thing upon entering, not even mentioning the still damp marks themselves, this is not a matter of sensitivities whatsoever. Half of us are pet owners, mind you. When I then voiced my concerns again, taking time out of my holiday weekend, I was told by Brian that he himself went over and 'tested' the areas--so again, not justifying our complaints, but just looking at how he can dismiss them. Again, the state of the house/carpet was completely apparent. The person I communicated with was of zero help, and rather rude. We still enjoyed ourselves, but I would not recommend this house, despite it looking great on paper, and at first.
