The RELAXING RETREAT was just as advertised. The screen room was a wonderful place to sit back and enjoy being surrounded by nature. Beds were comfortable and the en suite with each bedroom provided the desired privacy. The kitchen provided adequate extras and was well designed for cooking and eating together.

What a wonderful place to slow down with my family and regroup for a fun time. This was the perfect spot to host our family get away. We had ample room for all, plus the large screened in porch, dining table/game night table and hot tub were favorite spots for everyone. Thank again!

Wonderful stay in the woods.

We came for a get away as a family. We had plenty of room for 10 people. We enjoyed the screened in porch where we spent a considerable about of time. Also the outside fire pit was stocked with well seasoned wood that started quickly. Communications with the owners was quick and they did everything they could to help us have a great stay. If we come back to the area we will stay here again.

Great stay!

This property was a great choice for our family vacation. We liked the layout and appreciated how well stocked it was. Easy check in and check out process. Questions were answered promptly. Will note that the jetted tub in the master bath is not in working order, but we had no issues using the outdoor hot tub.

A great 4 days!

This property was ideal for our family and was very well stocked with everything needed for our stay. The screened in porch was wonderful and our kids enjoyed making s'mores around the beautiful fire pit. The setting was very peaceful and the home owners made us feel most welcome with a complimentary bottle of wine

Wonderful Vacation!

We have been going to Galena for many Summers and this house, by far, was the cleanest and most well maintained home we have been in. I really liked the design aesthetic inside as well. My only (small complaint) is that their are only 6 passes to the pool. Everywhere else we have stayed have always had 8 passes. Fees to get into the pool are only 5, but that adds up after multiple days. Overall, this house and communicating with the owners was exceptional! I highly recommend.

Gals in Galena!

We are four "mature" women who annually get together somewhere in the Midwest. We enjoyed our stay at Sara and Andrew's place. They were very responsive to our needs and followed up quickly. The location was fine and we certainly got to be with nature! The home has all the amenities in the bathrooms and kitchen areas that one needs for a brief stay. We enjoyed our time in Galena and the home we stayed in certainly made the experience there even better.
