First time staying at this property, but hopefully not the last. The house itself is lovely, well decorated and well equipped both inside and out. But the landscaping and views are beyond. Even with the hot weekend weather, we were still able to enjoy the outside quite a bit. The stars and setting were just beautiful. Easy short ride to historic downtown Galena (less than 15 minutes). We highly suggest the Downtown Galena Food & Drink Tour with Marissa. Our hostess, Sandy was always quick to reply to any questions we had. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We hope to be back.

The home is spacious and well furnished to comfortably accommodate my family of seven; truly felt like home. The gardens around the house were so beautiful that we opted to host extended family for cook outs in the evening. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

The house is located in a very scenic and quiet area of the Galena territory. Our family enjoyed hanging out together at the house and outside around the fire pit. The house is fully stocked with everything you need for cooking.

This was our second time visiting this house. We had just as much fun as last time. The house is very clean, well stocked, great views of the golf course, great deck and a very convenient location. We enjoyed the fire pit and looking up at the starts. We will definitely return!

Late Fall Getaway
We absolutely loved the location and property. We were lucky with the late fall colors and with how green the golf course was. Overall, a very pretty scene. The golf cart paths were a great place to walk in the evenings. The property met all of our needs.

Girlfriends Getaway
Myself and 4 girlfriends enjoyed a couple of nights at this beautiful property that is partly on a golf course. The grounds were gorgeous with mature trees and beautiful landscape. We enjoyed the patio, the deck and the screened porch. Kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. Plenty of space and super well cared for. We plan to come back if Sandra will have us. Sandra, by the way, is a great host and answered all of our extra questions. However, most of the info we needed she has organized and easy to get to.

Friends weekend
We had a fabulous time and this house worked perfectly for our two families. There was more than enough room to all spread out and enjoy our own spaces. Loved all the outdoor spaces as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Went on a golf outing - 4 guys total. Perfect stay for our weekend. The property is beautiful and just as described. 2 guys had their own rooms and two of the other guys shared a room (had the 2 queen beds in there). All of the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed having a nightly bonfire out on the downstairs patio every night. Such a great perk.
The communication with the property owner was fantastic as well. She responded to my questions promptly.
Thank you for a wonderful stay. We look forward to future golf outings here.

Nice Cottage in Galena Territory
We stayed for a week in this charming cottage with 4 adults and 2 kids (6 and 3). Great location that is a short drive to the owners club, marina and many of the hiking trails. Enjoyed watching the wild turkeys cross the golf course in the back yard. Well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. We would come back.

Girls weekend
Cozy, brightly-lit space. Could use some serving bowls/platters for when you cook in (we couldn't find any) Also could use some (glass) champagne flutes as there are none on premise. Everything else about this place was stellar.
