About this house rental

Welcome to Shorewood Hollow! Play, relax & explore during your stay! Play by taking swings on the golf simulator, breaking out pickleball, or playing a game of pool. Relax in the hot tub or kick back and watch a movie in the theater. Or explore over 30 miles of trails throughout the Galena Territory. Located just 10 minutes from downtown Galena and 5 minutes from the Owners’ Club pool, there’s truly something for everyone at Shorewood Hollow!

Tucked inside the beautiful Galena Territory, Shorewood Hollow isn't just a place to stay — it's the home base for the getaway your group will talk about for years. From the moment you walk through the door, you'll notice the thoughtfully curated design, built to be both a true escape and an entertainment destination for the whole crew.

Sleeping 12 guests comfortably across 5 bedrooms and 8 beds, Shorewood Hollow was made for family vacations, friend reunions, golf trips, and couples' getaways alike. Relax with a book on the three-season porch, sink into a soak in the hot tub, melt into a massage chair, or put on a movie in the private theater. Feeling competitive? Fire up the golf simulator, rack the pool table, set up pickleball right in the driveway, or shoot hoops until dinner. However, your group likes to unwind, Shorewood Hollow delivers.

THE GAME ROOM — A Fully Converted Entertainment Powerhouse

We didn't just convert the garage — we made it cozy, comfortable, and downright epic. With its own mini-split to heat and cool the space year-round, the game room is ready for your group in every season.

Settle in for movie night in the in-home theater, complete with beanbag chairs and recliners so everyone stays snug through the whole film. Then, when the credits roll, the theater transforms: fire up the golf simulator and tee off on more than 40 world-class national courses. Settle grudge matches, run a group tournament, or quietly work on your swing — rain, snow, or shine.

The pool table sits ready for play, trick shots, or showing off. Grab a seat at the indoor bar, pour a drink, and watch the action unfold. And when it's time to truly unwind, two top-of-the-line massage chairs are waiting to work out whatever the day left behind.

Just outside, you'll find the sports box, stocked with pickleball paddles, a net, and other outdoor games. Set up the net and play pickleball right in the driveway, or grab a basketball for a game of HORSE — no need to go anywhere.

This isn't a garage anymore. It's your clubhouse.



BEDROOMS — Comfort for the Whole Crew

Every room is designed as a comfortable retreat at the end of a full day, with luggage racks in each bedroom for easy unpacking.


Master Suite — King bed
Bedroom 2 — Queen bed, thoughtfully designed for a restful stay
Bedroom 3 — Queen bed, equally inviting and comfortable
Bedroom 4 (lower level) — Twin-over-queen bunk bed, plus its own massage chair for the ultimate wind-down
Bunk Room (lower level) — Full-over-full bunk bed, perfect for kids or extra guests
Basement Living Room — Queen sleeper sofa for flexible extra sleeping space




KITCHEN & DINING

The kitchen comes fully stocked with all the cooking supplies and equipment you'll need to prepare a fantastic meal for the whole group — from big family breakfasts to game-night snacks. When the weather's right, take dinner out to the porch dining table and eat under the sun or the evening sunset, with the grill (propane provided) just steps away.



OUTDOOR SPACES — Soak In the Best of the Galena Territory

The Galena Territory is known for its natural beauty, and Shorewood Hollow puts you right in the middle of it.

Start your morning with coffee and a good book on the screened three-season porch, furnished with a couch and comfortable chairs — protected from the elements but never separated from the view. When mealtime comes, the porch dining table and propane grill make outdoor dining effortless.

Out back, gather the whole group around the sunken fire pit — with enough seating for everyone and firewood provided, so s'mores and stargazing are always on the menu. There's plenty of yard space for cornhole and lawn games, and on chilly evenings (or any evening, really), slip into the hot tub and let the day melt away under the stars.

Want to explore? Hop on one of the bikes we provide and ride out into the Territory's 30+ miles of trails, right from your door.
