The main floor hosts a large living/gathering area with a gas fireplace, three bedrooms including the master (king bed) with ensuite including a jetted tub, and access to the large outdoor deck. The two additional bedrooms on this floor, each offer a queen bed, and they shared full bath. The large, completely equipped kitchen will host a number of cooks so no one has to ever say ‘there are too many cooks in the kitchen’! A large peninsula that seats four, plus a dining area with table seating for eight make group dining comfortable. Adjacent to the dining area is a wonderful porch with windows all around and access to the large deck, gas grill, outdoor dining table and that incredible view! Also on the main floor is a laundry room with full size washer and dryer.

There were 7 of us first cousins. This was our second year to stay in Galena. We had a blast. Perfect house for us. Large bedrooms and lots of room to spread out. Clean, beautifully decorated home!

We had a group of 8 work ladies that stayed for a couple days. The house was perfect for it with enough space for everyone to stretch out but also large gathering areas when we wanted to hang out. We didnt even get around tonusing some of the amenities!

Very nice and clean home big enough to accommodate our large family for a summer get away. We especially enjoyed the large dining table for card games and activities. We also enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub, as well as the game room. The kitchen was well stocked for our big meals. The owner’s club was a big hit and we enjoyed time there each day of our stay. Communication with Kristin ahead of our stay was helpful. The only suggestion I would have would be to start the AC before guests arrive as it took quite some time to cool down on a hot summer day. All in all a great trip! Thanks for sharing this home with us!

The house was very accommodating for our family. Refrigerator didn’t work when we arrived but a repair man was sent in a timely manner. The house was supplied with everything we needed for our stay. Kristin was very prompt with a return call for any questions I had. An enjoyable family week.
