"The property was very cute! We had 5 people stay and we all fit comfortably. The screened in porch was the best part at night to help with bugs!"

My friends and I chose Galena for our 50th birthday celebration. Downtown Galena was wonderful. Friendly staff in most of the shops, and everywhere we stopped to eat was good! Our VRBO host had responded to our questions/concerns in a very timely manner. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed. The house is located in a wooded area, so keep that in mind when booking as there were plenty of spiders we had to kill indoors and out. No fault of the hosts as bugs come with a wooded territory. The outdoor porches needed some tlc before we could use them as the outdoor porch is right under a bunch of trees. Lots of tree debris needed to be swept away. The upstairs bedroom has a dresser but the 2 lower bedrooms do not. One bedroom has a bench at the end of the bed and a closet, but the other bedroom only has a small luggage stand. My friend just slept with her luggage on the other side of her bed. Not ideal but it worked. The house was surface clean, but a deep clean is needed. Everyone’s idea of clean is different so keep that in mind. Some dust and cobwebs are visible. That did not deter us from enjoying our stay. The pool was great and we were able to bring in our own food and drinks. No alcohol or glass allowed in the pool area. The 4 of us showered back to back and we all had hot water so that was not an issue. It was great that the house had pool towels for us to use. One less thing we had to pack. Our overall stay was good. Thank you
