Great house for a group

Very spacious and plenty of room for a big group. We all loved the hot tub, karaoke machine & all the other fun amenities. Loved having 2 refrigerators, but would like to note that there's not an ice maker in either of them.

Great place for a big family!

Every year we get a big house for our family to hang out. Had a blast! Plenty of room for games and the hot tub was great! Loved that the bedrooms were far enough away that the kids could go to bed and adults could still stay up and chat without bothering them! Access to the owners club for the pool was great too!

A group of 8 moms had a mothers day weekend away. We enjoyed downtown galena, and relaxed in the hot tub! We took a shuttle service so we didn’t have to worry about driving & did a wine tour which was great!

Holiday Fun

This house was perfect for our family to get together for the holidays. There was plenty of room and very clean. The teens loved the pool table in the basement and the loft upstairs. I would be happy to stay at this house again.

Another great family weekend

This was our second time staying here as the property is great with all the amenities of home and plenty of room for everyone. We spent the weekend skiing and the hot tub was great to come back to after a long day at Chestnut. The only recommendation I have is to add soap, shampoo and conditioner.

Great house for multigenerational family weekend

We had a wonderful weekend here with our multigenerational family. The bedrooms are all nice, quiet, comfortable and private. Lots of areas to gather, play and relax. The hot tub was great, kitchen well stocked, screened in porch lovely and view from the deck was so calming! There were a couple of items not stocked (hand soap in powder room, coffee filters in kitchen) that would have been nice. But overall no complaints from our group!! Just lots of fun times with our family and great times for our group including toddlers, tweens, teens and grandparents alike!

Spotty WiFi and tv service at times. Lots of nice amenities in the home. Hot tub and karaoke machine were appreciated and used. Would recommend with a few cleaning tweaks . Not too far from downtown Galena-15 minute drive.

Great house

House is very large and what we needed (there were 14 of us). It was very clean and had a well stocked kitchen with newer appliances. Maintenance of house was good and most furniture in good condition except that tables in dining room, kitchen, and living room were very worn.

Lovely Girls Getaway

The home did not disappoint. Rural area but easy enough to go into Galena, a scenic dinner at Timmerman's in East Dubuque, and antiquing in Elizabeth. Everyone having their own space was nice, although the deck is a bit rough and needs some love. A tea kettle would have been appreciated, but overall pretty well stocked. The thermostats were vexing, patio doors stuck a little, and be prepared for sketchy wifi, as you are in a wooded area. Both Laura and Todd were responsive to our needs with setting up a few things in the home. They really made the experience top notch.

Perfect house for weekend getaway

This house is exactly as described/shown…it’s simply amazing! Beautiful decor, functional in every way (furniture layout with lots of seating, kitchen stocked with every accessory needed). We brought a group of teens with us and they loved all the games, hot tub, fire pit, etc. I can’t imagine a better house to entertain in. The only downside was the karaoke machine would not power on. But with so many other activities to choose from, it was obviously not a big deal. We enjoyed the owners club rec center too.
