We had a great trip to beautiful Galena. The house was perfect for our ladies trip and had everything we needed to have a great weekend away. It was super nice to have access to the pool as well.

This property is adorable - from the screened in porch, to the balcony off of the bedroom, relaxation is embedded in the stay. Great kitchen with full sized appliances for us cooks and plenty of outdoor space for eating, drinking & conversing. It’s a great home in the beautiful Galena territory where activities are everywhere (especially golf!).
