10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
Danielle was very responsive. We had the coldest weekend when staying here and she did her best to accommodate.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
We stayed here for my sister’s bachelorette party and it was perfect! There were 12 of us and there was enough space to all be together and hang out in common area, but also retreat to our own spaces. It was perfect walking distance to the shops and restaurants. If you rent out all 7 rooms, then there are two bathrooms available on the ground floor (you have to go outside to access these rooms). If I ever have a large party like this in Galena,I would definitely stay here again.
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2025
We enjoyed the home but it was a little tricky as we range in age from 60 to 88. The steps and outside access of two of the rooms was a little tricky for us. Also not having a bathroom on the first floor was inconvenient.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Overall, the place was very nice. We loved that each bedroom had a TV and a coffee maker.
