    What a nice getaway! The lay out of the place was perfect where no one ever felt cramped like in a traditional hotel room. The place had a playroom stocked with games where our kids played for hours. The driveway right up to the door was key! The view was so peaceful and the place had everything you could possibly need.

    I felt a good vibe/energy of the home as soon as I stepped inside. It was exactly as described in the listing and even more. Clean, airy, updated. The kitchen is very well equipped, beds are very comfortable. The view is beautiful. The garage helped keep our car cool and safe. Quiet and relaxing. Being pet friendly I was afraid inside will be a specific smell of a house with a pet inside but no, it was no difference. The high-ceiling throughout the house and skylights on the second floor bedroom and bathrooms are an awesome feature, you can sit in bed/bathtub and watch the trees, sky and clouds passing. Very relaxing indeed. We loved our stay and we cannot wait to come back with another occasion. Now I don't have to search for other places to rent in Galena as long as this property is available on the desired dates.

    We had a lovely stay and the townhouse is beautifully decorated. They were very accommodating to our dog and she had a great time talking walks in the area. The coffee bar had so many options and the kitchen had everything we needed. The access to The Owners Club is a nice bonus. Sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee and the dog was the best part because of the view and the peaceful sounds of nature.

    We stayed for two nights for our 27th anniversary and had a wonderful time! We brought our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with us and all of us were VERY comfortable. Our host, Will, was very responsive and helpful and provided lots of information in advance and the day of check out too!We will definitely be coming back here again!

    We were looking for a nice location to stay with our 4 kiddos in the territories. This home could not have been more perfect. The hot air balloon festival was just a short(0.75mile) walk away, there were trails to walk with the family, and the owners club was a short drive(5 minutes) away. We enjoyed everyone moment of our weekend. We loved that we could bring our family pet along and did not have to worry about adding a crate to an already full vehicle. We were there during a heat wave and the owners allowed us to check in a little early so we could drop off our pet so she wouldn’t over heat walking around with us while we were downtown. We will definitely be back

    We spent 6 nights at Dear Galena as a family of 4. The amount of room was perfect for us! The beds were very comfortable and the playroom was a major plus for a getaway space for the kids to hang out. We loved the beverage center with all the coffee maker options! It was easy to get to downtown Galena, area attractions and to the clubhouse (yay, pool!). The townhouse had great views and it's location was nice and quiet when we were there. Definitely would rent again the next visit to Galena.

Lots of baby stuff here too like pack n play and baby gate. Easy to get into town and we enjoyed a day at the pool at the owners' club during a rainy day. Would rent again.

    This is by far one of the best dog-friendly VRBOs I've stayed at - and with no additional pet fee either! It is so nice to not have to worry about bringing along a crate, bowls, or even a leash. This place was super nice in many other ways as well. The jetted tub is very relaxing and worked great. I slept better here after a night in the tub than I do at my own house! The sheets in the primary bedroom are super comfy. The silverware, dishes, and pots and pans are all very clean and the coffee station is amazingly stocked! The place is perfect for a quick getaway and it was nice to just be able to relax. Another bonus was that use of the garage is included, which makes it so nice to be able to load/unload undercover and in privacy. Thank you for sharing this great place - will return when we can! :)

    We had a great time at this place! The property was perfect for the four of us and our dog. And the surrounding area is beautiful, even in late December with no snow. We took long walks on the many hiking paths and went into Galena for dinners. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to make the gas fire work but it was not too cold outside so not a big deal. We also enjoyed the amenities of the Galena Territory Owners Club, which was very nice.

    We wanted a property that had room for our family and dogs and this one fit the bill, and then some. It was well stocked, clean, and even came with a garage with a charger. There was a great room geared for kids and extras like a kennel and bowls for the pups. They were very responsive to our texts. Plus, the check out process was small and simple. Bonus is they included a detailed link about the house and the area was sent before you arrived so you could check it out before arrival which was nice to have. Would definitely stay here again!

    The unit was very clean and nicely/simply decorated. We have rented in the Territory many times and this unit by far had the most amenities provided (we basically only had to provide our own food and personal toiletries). So many llittle touches to make being away from home easy. The owner was very responsive during the stay when we needed something. The view is amazing from the balcony and so much to do nearby. Was also great to be able to bring our dog.

    We had a nice stay at the property. It was our first time staying at a VRBO that allowed dogs and it was a perfect setup for the entire family. My 6 year old daughter was especially excited about the playroom and has already talked about when we go back next year so that is a good sign. I was surprised there were not many bugs outside so we could actually enjoy the patio and the view of the golf course is gorgeous. Thanks for hosting us! We plan to come back.
