About this house rental
The moment you walk into this updated home, you'll begin to breath easier. With 3 bedrooms and great gathering spaces, your whole group will enjoy your time together. Great for families, couples or girl's getaways.
The Master suite (lower/living level) has a king-sized bed and ensuite with huge walk-in shower and double vanity. The upper level (entrance level) features 2 additional bedrooms and a second bathroom with a large jetted tub.
The open concept living/dining/kitchen area on the lower level allows for easy conversations and hanging out. Enjoy a meal on the screen porch in the summer or the warmth of a crackling fire in the winter.
You'll likely see wild turkey and deer cross the lawn. If you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of "Glenn the Galena Groundhog" who lives under the deck. On clear nights, you can see the entire Milky Way.
Relax with our easy check in and check out process - no long list of things to do before leaving.
We are pet friendly with a $50 pet fee for additional cleaning often needed when furry friends come along. Please be sure to add pets to your reservation and the fee will be added.
As guests of The Galena Territory, you have access to indoor and outdoor pools, world class golf, game room, basketball/pickleball courts, hiking trails, horse riding and of course Lake Galena for fishing and boating.
It's an easy drive (15 min) to charming downtown Galena shops and restaurants and Chestnut Mountain ski area.
Galena offers a balance of quiet relaxation with plenty to do!

My friends and I were in town for a bachelorette weekend and had an amazing stay! The house was easy to access, clean and perfect for what we needed! Everything was well labeled with detailed instructions so we had no confusion! There were extra supplies provided in the bathroom and kitchen for a few item we forgot. Overall 10/10! If and when I come back to Galena I willl absolutely stay here again!

We did our annual girls weekend here and was absolutely so peaceful and beautiful!
We went to Galena for a little bit, but spent most of our time at the house. They had everything there for us even the games. At night, the sky was beautiful all you could see were the stars! And it’s very spacious. I would recommend this place to anyone.
I will definitely be back 🤗

Wonderful place to stay for my daughter’s wedding. Awesome screened in porch.
The bedroom listed with two beds only has one with a blow up in closet. Other than that, it was amazing!

This home was so well maintained. I love the little things like having everything labeled and instructions for the heating and cooling system. We also appreciated the quality of the kitchen/cooking tools (pots/pans etc.) and the mattress. This house lacked absolutely nothing! The owner kept great contact with us. We really enjoyed this home.

We have stayed in the Territories for over 10 years. I hate to say this as it will be harder to book but this property is a 10+. The owners have thought of everything and we felt like we were in a 5 star property. Everything was perfect. Thank you Sarah.

The host was very responsive and the house was very clean/nice for our family of four plus our dog. We enjoyed the surprise of having everything provided to make s'mores and loved seeing the wild turkeys roaming in the back. Would book to stay here again on a return trip to Galena.

So clean, comfortable, charming, and guest friendly. Things were labeled throughout the house for ease of guest use. Great layout, comfortable beds, and comfortable common area. Sarah even had an area of travel items for use if you left yours at home. We saw beautiful wild turkeys in the back yard! We loved that the home is dog friendly, however the place was so clean, you wouldn’t know that dogs had ever been in there. We would come back to this home again for sure! Just know the amenities section of home manual says there are 6 key cards for owner’s club and there are currently 5 key cards. We thought we had maybe lost one and spent some time looking for additional key card. Thanks so much for the use of your home Sarah! We really appreciate it.

There were five adult females ages 36-47. We loved the large table to play games, pig out on snacks and have cocktails. We had wild turkeys walk through the yard each morning, and even gobble back to us when we “talked” to them. We’d recommend this place anytime!!
10.0
The host is amazing, very responsive, kind, and accommodating. The house was fantastic, very clean. The kids loved it and the location is close to the owners club and highway 20. The house is close to trails. We saw a lot of deer and turkey. Great location.

We like this place! The bedrooms are spacious, the kitchen has everything you'd need, and the bathroom has a jet tub! The very cozy family room has a fireplace and Roku TV. The location is very good, clean, and quiet. The trail entry is about 50 yards away from the house. Recommend!

Check in was easy. Rooms were clean and enough space for two adults, two kids and a dog

This was my first time using Vbro. Sarah was timely and efficient in communicating if there was anything I wanted or in a few cases, needed to know. The house itself was immaculately clean and perfect for a quiet and much needed break with the family! The QR codes really helped out when there was a question. It felt like being home. I do wish we could have stayed longer and the house was two hours further east but that comes with the territory I suppose.
UNEXPECTED SURPRISE: We had five deer take a break to graze on the grass in the front yard the morning of our check out, very nice to see wildlife up close.

We’ve been going to Galena for the last decade and have stayed at many great properties in the territories. This house is cute, clean, and well appointed. The owners are nice and respond quickly. We will definitely book here again. Thank you for everything.

Five friends met up for an overdue long weekend in Galena. Have gone the B&B route in the past, but decided to try this VRBO property as it is pet friendly which we needed this time.
Sarah is extremely helpful and prompt with communication. We had to change our length of stay (within the change/cancellation window), and she was very understanding and processed our one night refund immediately. She emailed all check in and check out instructions, property manual, etc. prior to our arrival, and we had no issues during our stay.
The property was well appointed, SUPER clean, and the beds were amazingly comfortable. Lovely wooded backyard area (peak fall colors were an added bonus). We enjoyed both the indoor wood fireplace and outdoor fire pit, and the property is very quiet and serene. Saw many deer and wild turkeys during our stay! The trek into Galena was just under 15 minutes, so super easy to go back and forth for shopping, dining, and activities.
We had a wonderful stay, and hope to return one day. Would definitely recommend!
