The place was well kept and had nice views! The property owner was very responsive and helpful! Gave us great ideas for the future as well! There was a bedroom on the first floor which was great for my dad and his bad knees. The only issue is the toilet were extremely difficult to flush and couldn’t find the blow up mattress.

Great accommodations! It worked great for all of the family to meet and spend time inside & out. It was easy for our 93 year Dad and Mom to move around on the main floor. The teenagers enjoyed playing skeet ball & the fire pit. We were close to the pool and easy to get to down town Galena.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is very nice and comfortable, but needs a few more amenities to be really stellar. The grill was dirty when we arrived and did not work to our satisfaction; it never got quite hot enough to roast dinner. There was a shortage of cooking implements, especially mixing bowls. If a party ate out the entire time, it would probably not notice these shortcomings, but we specifically wanted to cook our meals. A hot tub/Jacuzzi would be a nice addition. Move the two twin beds from the first floor bedroom to the second floor and bring that queen down to the first floor. The wifi went down frequently (at least twice per day), which was annoying. The television was difficult to figure out how to work; we brought our own Roku sticks and could not integrate them with that system.In short, if you are out all day and use the cottage to sleep, shower, and change clothes, it is excellent. If you are there to spend time with friends you have not seen in a while, there were always distractions.
