Family Christmas Gathering.

We spent two wonderful nights at this property to celebrate a family Christmas and it couldn't have worked out better. -Five siblings, we each had our own bedroom with comfortable beds and immaculate bathrooms. We cooked meals together in the well-stocked kitchen and played games on the huge dining room table. We lit a fire in the fireplace and shared coffee time around the fire. There was not a moment when we felt uncomfortable or felt like we were missing something we would have enjoyed in any of our own homes. The home was well-appointed, clean and comfortable and checking in and out was a breeze thanks to easy to follow instructions from the host. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent family vacation

This was the perfect home for our family Christmas. The number of bedrooms, bathrooms and size of the kitchen made this a perfect home for us. We booked this place because of the size of the kitchen table holding our 10 people - and it was not disappointing! The house is even bigger than pictures showed and we are hoping to come back again next year. The amenities were great and everything was as stated or better. Thank you for allowing us to make great memories in this beautiful home!

Great for large groups

I stayed here with 6 of my dear friends. We are mostly content to hang out, chat, read and do indoors activities, but it was also a brief drive to downtown Galena. The house is spacious and well appointed. The beds were comfy, and there were plenty of towels and amenities. I would definitely return here.

Beautiful home! Clean! Beautiful time of year! No bars in shower or bathroom for senior citizens and handicapped. Taking trash to an offsite area was hard. Owner of home did not respond to messages directly, such as email or phone text. What about the refund policy? Please advise. Thank you!

Annual Book Club Getaway

Galena is such a great place to visit. This is my 4th vrbo rental in the Territory, and the location is lovely. We enjoyed the screened in porch, the beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was updated and well equipped. The front door has a security code, so I am not sure why we were instructed to use a key. The deadbolt on the front door was difficult to secure from inside the home AND using the key on the exterior. We got it done, but we had to use muscle! We were required to take the garbage and recycling to the dump at the end of our stay. It was a 12 minute drive from the house, and thankfully there were people there to help us sort which dumpster to use for trash, which for recycling. This requirement was not in the description of the property, I learned of it when I was given instructions on checking in to the property. The 3 other Galena Territories properties that I have rented did not have this requirement, so it was surprising. Garbage disposal should be included in the rental for a short term stay. The home was clean and very comfortable.

Wedding weekend

10 adults stayed at this property for a family weekend wedding. Property worked well for us… large driveway for five vehicles, 3 seasons room was phenomenal, shuffleboard table, space to hang out plus private space as well. Lovely view of golf course. Only downside is when you leave, you have to collect your trash and take it off site to a dump or pay a penalty.

My friend group, called the “Big Chill” because we’ve known each other for 50 years and meet once a year to catch up. We loved the spacious house especially the screened in porch sitting above the golf course with a view of the sunset. Every sunset was special to us.
