We stayed at this wonderful home as a group of eight (older) women friends. The spaciousness and comfort of the home, the three separate outdoor patios, and the gorgeous view of the lake from every window made this a very special getaway. It was accessible to historic Galena, to two restaurants on the Eagle Ridge property, plus to the marina where we rented a pontoon for a lovely ride along the lake. We all highly recommend this house for a Galena vacation.

This was our 1st family extended trip. My family and I truly enjoyed ourselves. The view from every balcony was breath taking. The open concept of her home made it look even bigger. Katie was very prompt with returning our calls and addressing our concerns.
We definitely be back.
Thanks katie the trip was Awesome.

Lovely home with tons of room! It was perfect for our family of fourteen with nice bedrooms and bathrooms. The game areas were just great for the kids, too. On the negative side, we were not able to get DVDs to play (for the kids) with the setup there no matter how we tried. And we all wished checkout time could have been at 11 am instead of 10 am. Overall, a great place to stay!

Our group of 14 ladies had plenty of space to spread out when needed and to gather as well! The home was very comfortable with many different rooms our group could fit in to be together. Beds were comfortable and it was nice having so many bathrooms to utilize so we never felt crowded. The home had everything in it that we needed--we had a wonderful stay!

Unclean and outdated, lacked basics.
There was a safety concern w deck railings, they were fastened on with temporary brackets. The property had basic utensils but every thing seemed cheap and outdated for what we paid. One guest found old bathing suits under her bed which was totally gross, like it wasn't cleaned properly. The views and location were top notch and nice house and space, just needs work and updating. I know the owners are working on it and are new.

A wonderful place to stay for our family reunion.

Bachelorette weekend
We used this house for a bachelorette party weekend. It was only 15 minutes from downtown galena and was a short drive to all the wineries. It had enough space for all of us and the views were amazing! Would definitely recommend this location to others.

Family Vacation
This was a great home for our family of 13. Plenty of room, beautifully decorated, lots of privacy, the balconies were awesome to sit out on and see the Lake. The pools were an added bonus at the club house. We got to meet the owners. Very nice people. When we had questions they were quick to respond. Wish the TV in the basement wouldn’t have been so glitchy and wish there would have been better water pressure upstairs in the shower, but these are all things we dealt with. Wonderful vacation spot and would consider renting again if we went to Galena

Cozy
I attend an annual girls trip. There were 13 of us and we hade a marvelous tome. The house was very spacious. The view simply amazing. We enjoyed the wrap around balconies. One thing I didn’t like was the downstairs queen beds. One room too soft. The other room too hard. I would recommend.

A PERFECT place for a family gathering
This house was the perfect setting for our annual family gathering. There were three families (three generations)--11 of us in total, aged 10 to 76--and we each loved our stay. The house is spacious and has many areas that are perfect for small groups to visit, read, and play group games. The dining table was large enough to fit all of us for mealtimes, and the kitchen was well-equipped. Each of the five bedrooms we used had its own bathroom with all but one having direct contact with a balcony overlooking Lake Galena. There was room enough to set up a badminton net, and a driveway long/large enough to accommodate four-square AND a water-balloon fight. Areas to play basketball, swim, kayak and ride horses were all on the Galena Territory property, and we took advantage of all. We can't say enough about this house and the location. Big, beautiful, clean, and convenient to "downtown" Galena. Who could possibly ask for more?

Lovely Family Lake View Home
Family (elderly parent, adult children, college age grandkids) spent lovely 4 days at this property to reconnect after being separated during the pandemic. Great lake view with seating from all 3 levels and plenty of gathering space on main level and game space on lower level with ping pong table. Unit very clean and solid internet access. Weaknesses were low water pressure on 3rd level when lower levels using water and mixed TV connectivity. Two steps entrance to home without railing was manageable with assistance for elderly father. Amenity cards to Eagle Ridge Resort enabled renting very affordable pontoon boat. and 2 swimming pool options , one very kid oriented, helpful as lake is not swim-friendly. (Family did not golf but plenty of course options for golfers as well). Owner provided very clear instructions from get-go so no need for additional contact. Overall, a very nice get-away option.

Old Friends Weekend Getaway
The view was amazing! This house accommodated 9 of us, giving us each our own bedroom and most of us our own bathrooms. 1 bathroom had to be shared but that was not a problem. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots & pans, toaster, microwave, etc. Just like home - We loved it!!!

Excellent place for large group
The house was extremely clean, and the managers were exceptionally promt at returning emails. The house layout was excellent for a large group, lots of room to get together, but also plenty of space to spread out when needed. Kitchen was stocked with all the dishes, utensils and serving wear we needed. Plus it was BEAUTIFUL scenery. I would recommend four wheel driving if you're arriving in slippery weather... But it's the Midwest and that's too be expected! We had a great stay and hope to return!!

Nice NYE Getaway
We enjoyed our stay and the house was very nice! Plenty of space. No major issues and the owners were responsive when we had questions about the house. They were able to address anything under their control (took awhile for the association's snow plows to get to our driveway, but not much can be done about that). Views were very nice even in winter and are probably spectacular during other months. Note: there is no hot tub anymore so the owner should update the listing description and description of one of the photos.

The most majestic long weekend
This experience could not have been better. The property was everything we had hoped for and more. Absolutely beautiful views, spacious, clean, wide-open, and plenty of room for our six kiddos to run and reunite. Our family kept remarking that we felt we were in a Hallmark Christmas card. We had a lovely snowfall on our second day -- so stunning! Thank you for the incredible experience. We will definitely return soon.

My family rented this house for a weekend getaway. Prior to check-in, all communication with the owners was great. They provided immediate feedback and was accommodating to all my questions. Upon arrival, we were completely amazed at how beautiful the house was! The online pictures do it no justice. Gorgeous lake house! In addition, the house was extremely clean! I’ve stayed in Galena several times, and this is by far the cleanest house we’ve had! This made everything more comfortable for all. The views from the porches are stunning. We were about 5 minutes from the marina, and several family members went fishing on the lake. The boat rentals, etc. are easy to rent. The kids and adults both spent quite some time playing ping pong and lounging in the basement. Fully stocked kitchen and the gas grills made dinners easy to prepare and serve. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves tremendously and will most definitely rent this Galena lake house again. Thank you

Fun times
Spacious and well maintained. We loved the views from inside and from the decks. We played a lot of ping pong. The kitchen was well equipped. We all enjoyed walking around Galena and different people in the group rode ponies, bicycled, played regular or mini golf, hiked, toured the Grant home. The pool wasn’t available at this time. We all had a wonderful time.

Wonderful Views & Beautiful House!
The pictures of the interior of the awesome great room, kitchen, dining and sun room didn't do the property justice. It was even more lovely in person. So many bedrooms, each with their own bath, made our family get together so comfortable! We had 12 adults and two boys (6 & 9), and we all had a great time enjoying the ping pong table, areas to play games and huge outdoor deck with lake views. The lake views are gorgeous, and even though it was pretty hot and muggy, we spent as much time on the deck as possible. Such a great respite for our family after all of this time cooped up at home because of the pandemic. Thank you for a lovely stay, Mike & Skippy!
