Everything we needed

We brought our staff here to getaway and have annual planning sessions. The en-suite bedrooms worked really well for privacy while the common spaces allowed our team to still feel connected. With the wide array of built in activities and the wonderfully furnished kitchen we had little need to leave the property. Will definitely plan to stay again.

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.

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.

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.

Nice location and home fit the family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Home is in a great location near the owners club. The owners added nice touches including a new grill, s’mores kit, fully stocked coffee station and well stocked kitchen with pots, pans and utensils. The home is large and spacious with multiple places for people to hang out and lots of games for kids and adults. The outside of the home needs some work including painting and new deck. The towels had a musty dirty wet smell even though they were clean. Overall nice home and our family had a great time

Lovely house with responsive host

Overall the home was great. The bedrooms, mattresses, and bedding were wonderful. We loved the ceiling fans and open concept. The whole family enjoyed the pool table, arcade game, shuffleboard, and a few the hot tub! The couches and chairs were all very nice and comfortable. Additionally, having access to garage and the 2nd refrigerator was awesome and should be listed as an asset! The number of bathrooms was ideal, but the toilets all still had blue cleaner in them when we arrived. Additionally there was a shortage of towels both per bathroom and to travel to the pool with. There were very few washcloths for the bathrooms or the kitchen. The kitchen was not as well stocked as we had hoped, but we have fairly high expectations. We are a large multi-generational family that cooks at least 2 meals daily. The grill should be upgraded as it struggles to cook evenly due to some "repairs." This caused some adjustments to our menu that were not ideal. The pool and rec center were lovely, but the guests before us didn't return all the passes so we were 3 short the entire week. $5/day per person. PS- We did see wild turkeys walking through the yard early one morning, which was very cool:)

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!

Amazing house for large family!

We LOVE this house and hope to stay there again soon! So many thoughtful details (extra pillows/blankets, games, s’mores supplies, etc.). the whiskey room and loft area were great! Only a couple negatives (and they weren’t a huge deal), but the deck is pretty worn and we had a couple splinters and there were only 7 amenity passes, when a house holds 14, a pass for each guest would be expected. Overall, it was a great trip! The host was very helpful!
