Fall Fun

Friends meeting for a few days of fun. The house is cute and roomy. Good bedding, sheets etc... because that does matter. Yard had a few old cans blown out of the fire pit but other than that the place was clean and inviting.

Girls get away

We had the best time in Galena!! Shopping, touring historic homes, eating at great restaurants, and spending an evening at the owner’s club pool. We rented the Charming Home on the Hill. It was clean and had plenty of room for the four of us. I would suggest a box of tissues in the bathrooms and a cheap alarm clock in the bedrooms, but would definitely recommend to family and friends and would stay here again!!

Christmas stay

We stayed at Joyce’s property for two nights and had a great time! The house was fully stocked and we even utilized the fireplace which came with a full supply of wood. We were also able to utilize the indoor pool on the Eagle Ridge property. The location of the house is perfect if you want to visit downtown Galena or nearby Chestnut Mountain for skiing.

Time Away

Four beds were needed, four beds found. Comfort, room, amenities, location all worked for the four of us women. Close and far enough from Galena to enjoy our time away. The annual Halloween was Saturday night, knowing that ahead of time helped us make decisions for that day. It's crazy. Beautiful sunsets from home, quiet neighborhood, all worked for us.

Girls weekend!

This is house was perfect for ours girl’s weekend. This kitchen was beautiful! Plenty of towels. Loved having a washer and dryer available. Lots of seating. Comfortable beds. If I had to make a suggestion it would be to upgrade the patio furniture and make a fire pit area. Some more mirrors and blankets would also be nice. Overall we would stay here again!

Bird poop all over

We thought we were going to be having a nice family weekend but it was a nightmare. The place was 90 degrees when we arrived and there was bird poop all over. We have pictures of bird poop on the beds, towels, window sills, floors. Nobody checked the place before we were there. The bathroom light/vent is filled with bugs and dust. We ended up cleaning all our bedding ourselves. Don't stay here, a bird already has the place reserved.
