Phil was a helpful host and the Nook was as advertized. It was clean and included the necessities, like shampoo and towels. We appreciated the living room area where we could sit and talk as a group. The kitchen is a bit small for multiple people doing multiple kitchen tasks, but we managed. I would recommend this place and host.

We had a wonderful girl’s weekend at this adorable home! Clean, cute, good gathering space, and located in an historic neighborhood. Large yard with BBQ, fire pit, and hot tub. We didn’t have a dog, but noticed that it was well outfitted for a pup. Deck gate, fenced yard, dog bowls, bed and treats. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the host’s great communication. We hope to be back!

The Nook is a super cute house in a great location in Galena. Only about a 10 min walk from Main Street. The hot tub was a great bonus and we loved using it. Loved the convenience of the smart lock for accessing the house. There is a train track that runs right by the house both during the day and the middle of the night. It didn’t bother us, but may bother some. There were a few housekeeping issues that should have been taken care of prior to our arrival which is why I gave cleanliness a 4 star rating. However, Phil was quick to respond and got everything taken care of right away. There was a big storm that moved through prior to our arrival, Phil made sure our comfort was prioritized prior to any clean up happening during our stay. Zach and the tree crew got the downed trees cleaned up and someone will luck out on some firewood if they can handle the mosquitos! Would stay here again.

Clean, comfortable, and exactly as listed! Phillip was a great host who was easy to communicate with. We loved the convenience of the smart lock for check in and check out. House is in a great spot for walking over to main street for food and drinks. Backyard and hot tub were fabulous! Perfect house for a little getaway with our baby and dogs

I would definitely recommend this rental to anybody. Great location, great space and very clean. We enjoyed our stay. I never got a chance to sit in the hot tub but looked very inviting. Also loved the fenced in yard if you bring your furry friends its nice to have.

Stayed here for a girls weekend. Very cute little house with fun artistic touches. Clean, nicely furnished with special extras like robes in the rooms. Hot tub worked well. Great location in a quiet neighborhood within 10-15 minute walk of the Main Street with shops and restaurants. Hosts were really responsive, easy check-in.

My family and I stayed for a wedding at Ashton Hill Farm. It was a great place for our family to hang out. Had everything we needed, very nicely decorated and comfortable. We had our dog with us and the doggie touches were nice and appreciated. Great backyard although we didn’t get to enjoy it as much as we wanted to. Would definitely stay there again and hope that we do.

Property is located with a train track right next to it! Train was permanent going on and off thru the night. Owners wanted to charge us $20 per hour for early or late checkin. Upstairs bathroom drain not working. Cute place but not as cute as it looks!

Hadn't been to Galena in years and it was certainly worth the trip. We had a great time, the house set up was great, everything we needed and it was an easy walk to downtown. We enjoyed the hot tub and the dogs loved the fenced in backyard!

The house was super clean, the beds are excellent, very nice linens. Some suggestions for improvement: the kitchen is lacking (no wine glasses, no rock glasses), broken pans, nothing extra (like no coffee). One of the beds didn't have a top sheet, only one towel and wash cloth per person for 3 days. Also both bathroom sinks didn't drain well and seemed to be backing up. Galena had a boil water order when we arrived and we didn't know until we got a notice delivered that the order had ended. We drank the tap water no knowing this was happening. The television was impossible to use.

We had a wonderful trip to Galena on Labor Day & stayied for 4 days at this cozy little home (The Nook). Nice fenced yard complete with fire pit and a hot tub on the deck! The home is at the end of a quiet street (there were trains that pass by but it’s not much of a distraction). The home is close to downtown and close to other area attractions. You can’t go wrong if you book your stay at The Nook!

Adorable little house with great big fenced in years! Our two city dogs loved chasing balls in the yard and we loved the short drive to Main Street for shopping & dining! Would definitely recommend!

My family enjoyed the stay at The Nook. Very clean, comfortable house. I loved walking across the pedestrian bridge to get to the town. Wonderful, convenient access to all the good attractions. Good host, cute decor, lots of towels. The only downside is the proximity to the train as it blow horn at night.

Great accommodation... very thoughtfully organized, we had 2 dogs with us and fenced back yard was great hang out.... the owners had thought of your pets, had pet treats, wipes, pet bed and even doggy water bowls... they did not forget kids too, had ice cream and few snacks. Was pleasantly surprised to see the OMG forgotten item box, even a stepper for small kids. We loved the place, very close to Galena downtown, great evening walks close to the train tracks. One point to comment is it would be ideal to have spotlight or some form of illumination to the back yard. After dark the deck light do not provide enough light to the yard. We were prepared with a flashlight. The nook was a great place to relax and enjoy. we will have no hesitation to come back.

This was our second stay at The Nook. We absolutely love this charming place! From the close proximity to downtown, opportunity to bring our fur babies along, the hot tub, fenced in yard, and overall vibe of the house, we can’t wait to come back and stay again.

I reached out a few hours before check-in to receive instructions via the Vrbo app & didn’t receive a response until the next day. Thankfully, I checked my spam and was able to access the property as the access instructions came from a management company and straight to my junk mail. The house wasn’t secure upon entering, as the back door was unlocked. House was much much smaller than what was pictured. The living room ottoman had a broken leg so was not usable. The living room was covered in dog hair so I had to clean it to get comfortable. The master bedroom bed was lumpy, saggy, and squeaked w/ every toss & turn. The linens smelled like body oder. Second bedroom upstairs was uncomfortable. 3rd bedroom downstairs was freezing. We ended up staying 1night & left a night early as the home just wasn’t comfortable for my family of 4. Great location, wish it was a place we wanted to return to.
