Very nice place. Every bedroom has an attached bathroom which is good for large groups. Fun basement with the pool/card tables. Close enough to Galena to explore town but also has the secluded feel. If we visit the area again i would not hesitate to rent from this group again.

We had a great stay at this property! The house was very clean and there was lots of room for all of us. The stairs from the driveway down to the house were a bit tricky because of snow and ice. The beds were really comfortable, and the hot tub was amazing. Would definitely recommend!

Wonderful property, excellent for our group. Kitchen was nicely equipped and the main floor has great group congregating area. Only issues were outdoor lighting along stairs from parking area was insufficient. Would book this property again and host was great!
