Family Weekend

We've stayed at this property two years in a row now, and it was just as perfect as the first time. Having a bedroom, the living room, kitchen, and game room all on the main level is something we find hard to come by for our extended family gatherings, and this location was perfect. Great location, quiet, easy to find, and super clean.

70th Birthday

Our family had a great experience staying at Oakmont Lodge. Everything was as listed in the description. There was plenty of room for our group of 12 to gather together. Everyone enjoyed the game room! The beds were comfy and each bedroom spacious. We would definitely return to this property if we come back to Galena in the future!

We've stayed in several different places in the territory and this is by far our favorite place so we continue to come back. We love that we can all(12 people) sit at the table together for meals and easily sleep the 12 people in VERY comfortable beds. The house has many amenities for a large group to enjoy!!

Wonderful Family Weekend Getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time our family has stayed at this beautiful property. There were 11 of us with ages ranging from 10 to 77 years old, and it has enough bedrooms, bathrooms, and living space to spaciously accommodate all! The game room and hot tub are fabulous. The response from Management when I noticed there were no dishwasher detergent/pods was immediate, and were delivered to our door. The house/property is beautiful, clean, and within minutes to the Owners Club where we enjoyed the pool, basketball court, and gym. We would stay here again!

Ticked the big boxes.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was gorgeous and spacious. The game room was a huge bonus as it was blazing the week we went. Our only complaints were the oven was tiny for a 5 bedroom rental and the previous guests took 6 off the proximity cards home so I’m out the money it cost for Day passes. They offered to reimburse me if I went back to the owners club and requested a receipt but that wasn’t in our timeline. Also the furniture and bedding were a bit dated but we made do.

Wished it was in better shape

House was chosen for accommodation while attending my daughter’s wedding in Apple River, IL. Top priority was pet friendly (dog was in the wedding), second priority was each bedroom had a bathroom and last was the game room, hot tub and fire pit. Front/side garden beds definitely needed some cleaning. Lots of weeds. Outdoor amenities were not used since the hot tub had stuff floating in the water when we opened the top and ants were crawling up the side of it. Did not use the outdoor fire pit because of all of the debris in the gutters(no hose in sight). I have photos of everything. Interior was clean but worn. Two bathroom mirrors had black spots across them. Ceiling fan in one bedroom was shut off due to noise and shaking. Floors upstairs were uneven and had slid under our feet near the stairs. Top of stairs had an area where it would be very easy to fall (I have photo) Rug in main room curled at the edges and presented trip hazards. No curtains or blinds on windows so no privacy on first floor main area. Master bathroom has no real privacy due to game room door (has curtain but that’s ideal). Glass doors on bathroom have no privacy panel. Disappointed because we really wanted to enjoy the house.
