Acerca de este alojamiento vacacional
View from Quality Hill overlooking historic district, quick walk to downtown
Construido en 1856 por Asa Haile, un capitán de barco con licencia y exitoso albañil, esta clásica casa de ladrillo de estilo federal con acentos del Renacimiento griego se encuentra en Quality Hill, donde las mansiones dominan todo el distrito histórico de Galena. Una caminata rápida de 5 minutos (tal vez un poco más en el camino de regreso) lo coloca directamente en la calle principal de Galena, llamada "Una de las mejores calles principales de Estados Unidos" por Fodor's.
El porche es la clave de su estancia en Asa Haile House. La vista es fantástica, ya sea con una taza de café viendo la ciudad despertarse o una puesta de sol de noche hacia Horseshoe Mound. Algunos rayos de luz vespertinos se pueden ver por Pilot Knob cuando una barcaza busca su camino hacia el río Mississippi. No importa la temporada; primavera, verano, otoño o invierno, ¡el porche es INCREÍBLE!
Dentro de la casa hay una culminación de amor y dedicación cuando Pete y Tacie Campbell tomaron posesión de la propiedad a principios de los años setenta. Su influencia se puede disfrutar en toda la casa de 2.700 pies cuadrados, ya que ambos eran historiadores; Pete dirigió los sitios históricos del estado de Illinois en Galena y Tacie fue la curadora en el Museo y Acuario Nacional del Río Mississippi en Dubuque, IA, y también trabajó desde el principio para la Sociedad Histórica de Galena. El tiempo puede desaparecer fácilmente mientras pasas el rato en la sala delantera o trasera, o arriba, en la sala principal. Las habitaciones son cómodas y un gran final para su día de hacer lo que sea ... o no hacer absolutamente nada.
La propiedad todavía es de propiedad familiar de los dos hijos y sus familias de Pete y Tacie.
No importa lo que termine haciendo (compras, cenas, antigüedades, cata de vinos, paseos históricos, flotadores de ríos, esquí de invierno y más), The Asa Haile House es una excelente manera de experimentar Galena y todo su encanto histórico.

we had a great time

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your place. The beds were very comfy, and we used every room whether it was talking into the wee hours of the night in the sitting room or playing cards in the dining room. Two things that may be improved: musty odor was noticed at the door we entered and kitchen. This odor seemed to dissipate the next day which was good since I am allergic to mold. Also, a step stool may be helpful to future guests for the one high bed (one guest was alittle short). Other than that we enjoyed our stay and thank you for the wine!

The home is beautiful - like taking a step back in time and staying in a house from the early 1900s. There were five of us in our late 60s - the stairs were difficult for one of us and we could have used one more bed, but everything was very clean and comfortable and in a great location to all things Galena. Host were great!

The pictures in the description do not do justice to the charm of the house. My mom, sisters, and myself fell in love with house and the trip back in time. We stayed in Galena on one of the hottest and humid weekends of the year but the rooms were adequately supplied with air conditioners. Although it was hot and humid we enjoyed our time on the patio both nights as it was a nice private space. The stairs getting going down to Prospect street are a little sketchy but we made sure to watch our step and take our time. There are approximately 159 steps from the house to Main Street. So if you plan to walk to the shops, be prepared. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the charm of the house.

We enjoyed the stay overall. However, it needs some love.
The front bedroom bed is too high. I’m 5’6” and I had to do some effort to get on bed. The bunkbeds are too noisy to sleep. We had to put mattresses on floor to get some sleep. The front bathroom toilet ring is loose. The carpet on the stairs to upstairs bedrooms is in bad shape. Most of the carpet was frayed. One of the steel rods holding the carpet was sticking up in air. The railing in upstairs hallway was very loose. Entry in back is perilous. Not welcoming at all. We did enjoy the history of the house.

The home is beautifully maintained, however as with antique furniture, it's just not very comfortable. Sleeping with the hubs in a very springy, full sized bed kept me awake, so I went to the living room to sleep in a recliner.
The recliners didn't recline very far and the foot rest didn't come up very high, not comfortable. All of the sofa's are too short to sleep on, except one which was very narrow and not very comfortable. I got zero sleep the first night. The second night I slept on the floor.

The beautiful historic home was the perfect location to have a private space with friends. The front porch was great for drinking a beverage and socializing and the quick walk down to shopping and restaurants made it easy for individual excursions.

We had a great weekend in Galena. Robert’s property has the best views and is a great location. You are minutes from downtown Galena. Yes, there are steps. Our group ranged in age from 52 to 74, the 74 year old had hip replacement in July and was able manage the steps with no problems. We’d stay here again!

Beautiful historic home filled with charm. Views from the front porch were breath taking!! Very peaceful area, perfect for relaxation. Wonderful communication. Any questions or concerns were promptly addressed. The Campbells were pleasant. We were greeted by email before, during and after our stay. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat and has a love for history.

From the first time we booked many months ago, and throughout our stay, the host was very responsive to our inquiries.
Overall, we were very happy with our experience. The view from the front of the house is INCREDIBLE! You can sit outside and watch the sunrise, listen to the birds, have coffee, etc. There is also a quaint little outside patio on the side of the house to move to if you get hot in the front of the house. There is a cute non-intrusive outdoor cat.
Plenty of space! MANY rooms to choose from to gather. 3 nice sized bedrooms (one bed is high). Having three full bathrooms was great!
We have a few things we'd suggest to improve the guest experience. Not all of the windows have coverings. People can't necessarily see inside, but if it is dark out, it would be nice to be able to close shades should you choose. There could be a few sensored plug-in night lights or lighted switches to light your path if you enter after dark to help you navigate unfamiliar surroundings. We could not get the TV to work, but I have no doubt that the host would have been very responsive if we had reached out. We appreciated the period-style home and furniture, but we would've liked one slightly more modern room in which to gather. Lastly, there is a learning curve and care needed to working the door locks and knobs. You need to push hard on some doors to get locks to engage.
The home was great! We would stay again! We appreciated the parking. Host was awesome and so was the view!

We stayed here for my best friend's bachelorette weekend and had the best time! The house is huge and was more than enough space for the 4 of us. We loved all the little details and decorations. The location was so convenient: we didn't have to drive anywhere if we didn't want to. Those stairs on the way back up the hill, though... wear your walking shoes!

The Asa Haile House was a perfect setting for a friends reunion weekend. It's a gorgeous house. Watching the sun rise over Main Street and the foggy hills in the distance with coffee on the porch to wine on the lovely courtyard at night can't be beat. Highly recommend!
3.0
It is not Senior Citizen friendly. Lots of steps into the back of the house that are very precarious for people with joint issues. The stair banister was very loose. We had to buy our own toilet paper because there was none available.
We enjoyed the history and ambience, but we did not feel safe. The doors into the house were very hard to lock if at all.

This property was very unique and charming. There were a few things I wish I had known beforehand, like that the bedroom with twin beds was a set of bunk beds and that there was only one bathroom with a shower, but even so I don’t think these things would have deterred me from staying there. Can’t beat the location! The property owners were incredibly attentive and responsive, even checking in to be sure we had everything we needed mid-trip. It was a great choice for a long weekend!

Staying in the charming older house was a unique experience! The rich history and massive book collection added a wonderful touch. Its proximity to downtown Galena was a big plus, and the owners' responsiveness was appreciated. Although we wished for more cozy and comfortable seating, our busy schedule kept us on our feet. The front porch with its beautiful views was a highlight and provided a wonderful place to unwind and take in the surroundings.

What a great home full of such great history from books to things on the walls and the walls themselves. - something truly special and a true gem.

Great location - walking distance to everything on main st (although be mindful that it’s about 200 steps to climb when returning). Nice view. Clean house.

Our annual family girls trip was a blast! We enjoyed the close proximity to downtown and all the historical sites! The historic home was beautiful and a nice comfy home feel!

We enjoyed our girls trip. This was the perfect location for a walk down to shopping and drinks. This is a historic home with all the creaks and quirks that come with an old home. The downstairs shower had great water pressure and lots of hot water. The plumbing upstairs was iffy. The pillows were great. The couches were uncomfortable and some of the chairs needed to be redone. We did enjoy some of the great antiques in the house. Overall the house needed a good dusting.

This was a great location! Easy to walk to town (a few steps involved) and the home has multiple sitting rooms to enjoy! Beds were comfy.

Me and 5 other girl friends had a splendid stay at the Asa Haile House. The house itself is so charming and cozy and large! The property is magnificent and a prime spot for bird watching. We loved the location in proximity to the downtown area. We just had a glorious time during our stay. Both Rob and Michael are very friendly and nice and helpful. I highly reccomend staying at Asa Haile House. Thank you for having us.

It was very nice, neighbor is really friendly. It was really cool staying in such an old home just as it has been through generations. Super clean! The tubs are perfect for soaking!

This is a great property. Would love to stay here when the weather is warmer to enjoy the outdoor space.
Lots of steps to get downtown and back if walking. We ended up driving downtown and parking.
Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed getting to stay in a historic house in Galena over the weekend. We like coming here in the off season to enjoy the ambiance, restaurants and historical buildings. We had a great weekend. :-) Our host was very helpful.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the historic Asa Haile House. Mr. Campbell was responsive to my questions and offered great suggestions to ensure we had a good time. The beds were all comfortable, house was very clean, kitchen was well stocked for making home cooked meals and the house was a short walk to all the restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the massive collection of books and games for our family to enjoy. We would definitely stay again!

I spent a weekend here with some of my girlfriends. You absolutely cannot beat the location! It was so nice to be able to just park the car once we arrived, and walk everywhere. Robert was quick to respond to any of our needs. And the property was very clean. Overall, it was great!

We stayed at the Asa Haille House for a girls weekend. We were able to find everything we needed to make the meals we shared. The only thing we'd recommend would be more comfortable seating. We loved the historic furniture's aesthetic, but since we did a lot of sitting and visiting, more comfy cushions would have been enjoyed. We'd still return, though! Rob was so responsive when we had questions and quickly resolved a couple little glitches that came up.
