An Artistic retreat in the heart of downtown Galena

This property was very comfortable, clean and spacious! We had a fantastic time and felt very relaxed.

Perfect location and clean

Loved the comfortable feeling this unit provided on our snowy visit.

Super easy to find. Quiet, large suite really close to downtown Galena. Great price and nice hosts. Definitely would stay again.

Very clean and beautiful place to stay. Nice easy walk to downtown area. Would stay again

Galena is a wonderful place to explore and the VRBO was in walking distance. Enjoyed our stay and worth coming back.

The place was clean, laid out nicely, great size and overall beautiful and comfortable. We like to sit outside and have coffee or enjoy a drink in the evening and the property was on a busy street. That was our only drawback. You could not, however, hear the street noise while in the room.

Studio apartment with soaring ceilings and skylights, on top of an old Galena brewery, walking distance to downtown. Beautiful artwork in the unit. The host was extremely communicative and easy to work with. The business as a whole is called the Abe's Spring Street Guesthouse if you would like to check them out.

My wife and I stayed in Emma’s Room, one of four units at Abe’s. It was comfortable, well appointed, and immaculately clean. The carpeting appeared new and the wall of tall windows on the street side displayed a pleasing view while infusing the rooms with a bright, airy environment. Though located on a busy roadway, the traffic noise was minimal and did not detract from our experience.Abe’s is located a short and easy walk from historic downtown Galena, a trip we made each of our days there.Charles and Sandy are top-notch: from the informed conversations, to the recommendations for restaurants and points of interest, to the delicious Sunday breakfast in the candlelit vaulted room that once held vats of fermenting beer at this marvelous collection of buildings that many, many years ago housed a brewery. Our stay at Abe’s made for an exceptionally pleasant visit and one we hope to repeat.Dean M.

We had a great stay! Charles and Sandy are wonderful hosts! Our room was spacious and very clean! The breakfast in the brewery room was stunning and perfect for our Valentine’s Day getaway! Go for a stay!

We loved our stay at Abe's Spring Street Guest House. The studio is decorated with beautiful artwork and the location is perfect for walking downtown. The breakfast was unexpected and wonderful - we enjoyed learning about the history of the building and the food was amazing!

First of all, this room was about 3x the size I thought it was going to be (bonus!). It was spotless. Walking distance to downtown Galena was awesome because I didn’t have to deal with parking. The breakfast on Sunday morning in the 1850 cellar was divine—I keep telling people it was the best omelette I’ve ever had, in the most beautiful setting with elevated service.

Very nice property! Comfortable, clean and updated. Loved the big windows and natural light. Highly recommended!

Very clean and comfortable accommodations that were a convenient walking distance to downtown. The ambiance, delicious breakfast along with a great history lesson generously offered by Charles and Sandy was a pleasant surprise. Would definitely stay again!

Phenomenal stay in a very spacious and updated modern room accompanied by a delectable breakfast in the beer cave on Sunday mornin!

Very well located right next to main street Galena. Very spacious studio.

Great host. Online information was accurate. Also served a great breakfast on Sunday morning

Really enjoyed our stay here. Easy to walk to most attractions. Breakfast on Sunday was incredible.

I had fun with the back bar.Liked that there was a toaster.The studio was only very clean.It was cool to have the window panes facing the sunrise,and the high ceilings make the place spacious.Carpeting is clean,you'll want to walk barefoot.So if you're thinking of going,I say go!

On the second floor of the Artists' Annex overlooking Spring St. in Galena is the most unique vacation rental. Emma's Corner is equipped with two walls of (to the ceiling) windows, skylights and track lighting that provide unlimited options for showcasing the diverse artwork of the proprietor, Charles Fach. The unit was very clean and comfortable and is near the shops downtown. On Sunday we were treated to omlettes for breakfast in a historic room at the back of the Annex that once served as an underground barrel-vaulted limestone brewing chamber. This was truly an amazing experience! We would highly recommend Abe's Spring St. Guest House & Artist Annex to anyone looking for a unique vacation experience in the Galena area.
