About this cabin rental

Set on a beautiful seven acres of wooded hillside, Homestead Hideaway offers you a unique opportunity to rest and relax within a peaceful setting. Located just 15 Miles from Galena, Illinois, our cabins in the woods can be your home away from home while you enjoy Galena, Chestnut Mountain, hiking, wineries, and all the other amenities Jo Daviess County has to offer.

When you stay at Homestead Hideaway, you can simply relax in our cozy rustic cabins, or get out and enjoy everything the area has to offer. At Homestead Hideaway you can expect a tranquil feel and a stress free retreat. The cabins are located in a beautiful rural area where it is perfect to have a cup of coffee or tea in the mornings and enjoy the wildlife. Let our cabins be a rare chance to unplug from the world and help ensure you have a relaxed and secluded stay. We are NOT able to provide Internet or cable TV due to the location of the cabins. However, do not let that steer you away from the beautiful setting. There are numerous locations in Galena as well as E-Town Coffee in Elizabeth, IL with Internet access.

We have two historic cottages located on the property and three separate rentals. The cabins are located on opposite ends of the property. You can enjoy the seven acres of wooded area by hiking or taking your dog for a walk. Whether you are planning a romantic trip to Galena, a golfing trip, a couple’s getaway, a wine lovers weekend, or skiing at Chestnut Mountain during the winter months, Homestead Hideaway will accommodate to your needs.

We have been renting the cabins for about 2 years now. We have decided to go beyond the brochure advertising and word of mouth and work with VRBO for our rentals. Do not hesitate to ask any questions.

This specific rental is the Seven Sisters Suite which is located on the top two levels of our main cabin. The lower level of this cabin is our Gleneagle Suite which is also listed on VRBO Listing #624157 & our other cabin on the property is listed as the Brimeyer Cabin VRBO Listing #624141

We now have a landline at the cabin. It is for local and emergency(911) calling only. If you wish to call long distance you will need to bring a calling card. However, long distance inbound calling is free.

Starting Mid August 2022 We will have passes available for ACL Nixon beach (15 minute drive) and ACL pool. You must speak to host prior to arrival for information. You must have tags and parking passes for these amenities and there is a fee from security deposit IF YOU LOST TAGS

We booked the Seven Sisters Suite last minute - I think it was the only dog-friendly property available in a 20 mile radius for the weekend. It is remote as noted, and don’t expect cell service (though we did have 1 bar of service sitting on the balcony). Place was spotless and comfortable, plenty of space for my husband and I and are daughters (7 and 9) and our mini goldendoodle. We used the grill (there happened to be a half bag of charcoal leftover, which was lucky bc we completely forgot to buy charcoal and it would be at least a 30 min drive to go pick up more) and the fire pit for s’mores. Beds were comfortable and we all enjoyed watching the cows in the pasture across the street. The dog and I did a quick walk up the gravel drive and down the hill through the paths cut in the brush and it was lovely. We all remarked on how dark it gets in the house at night with the curtains closed. Like pitch black. Enjoyed going to the pool at Apple Canyon Lake. My one gripe is that the lower level was rented so I felt a bit bad for the ruckus our girls were making as they ran around exploring. I felt less bad when I was woken from a deep sleep after midnight by the downstairs neighbors who were talking loudly and maybe (based on the explosion/shooting sounds) playing video games? I put the white noise option on my phone and that fixed it. Would recommend screen doors be installed on the exterior doors. Lovely stay.

Had a lovely peaceful and restful stay. Very comfortable. Were unfortunately bothered by a stray / farm dog due to us having our dogs with us.

Quiet & secluded. The property is "away" from everything. But also a short trip to great hiking, fishing, and Galena. Quiet nights to enjoy family and fires. Busy days to enjoy the outdoors. If you want to get away, this is a great spot.
