Hike the wooded trails, golf at the General, enjoy the pools, gym, at the owner's club, rent a boat at the marina for an evening of fishing. Reserve a pickle ball and tennis court for an afternoon or horseback ride at the Shanandoah Riding Center. After a full day of activities, come back to the Longwood Hideaway and enjoy a glass of wine in the screened in porch or hot tub. Once inside for the evening, enjoy the many games, puzzles, or a game of pool and card games.

Inside, you'll find beautifully appointed 4 bedrooms and 4 baths. Two bedrooms have attached baths, and two bedrooms have baths that are adjacent.

    Comfortable home with plenty of space for everyone. Very quiet location. The beds and furniture are comfortable. The host replied almost immediately with any questions we had. there is plenty of kitchen and bathroom supplies available. We really appreciated the coffee and tea supplied by the host. We had 3 couples staying to play golf in the Galena area. We played the Galena Golf Club and Wolf Hollow in Lena. Both are excellent courses and cheaper than playing the high-priced courses in the Galena Territory.

    House was great. Plenty of room for us 4 ladies. We played games and used the hot tub. Wish it was just a tad warmer. (It was set at 98 with instructions not to raise it)

    We had the best girls’ weekend at the Longwood Hideaway! There were 7 of us, and the house was absolutely perfect for our group. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time together.The home was spotless, and you can tell the hosts really care about the details. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and there were plenty of cozy spaces to sit, chat, and just be together. We especially loved how peaceful and private the setting felt—like our own little retreat tucked away from the world.Communication was easy, check-in was seamless, and everything matched the listing exactly. We spent our time laughing, catching up, and making memories, and this home truly made it all even more special.Highly recommend for a girls’ getaway or any group looking for a relaxing, beautiful place to stay. We would absolutely come back again!

    Beautiful property! Great location! Would definitely recommend. Loved the screened in room. Was a bit cool outside, a nice touch would be a gas fire feature or heaters. We still sat in the screened room, even in the cold

    Our group of 8 very much enjoyed our stay. The house and property are beautiful, clean, and very well stocked with every kitchen/bath items you may need. Lots of pantry items such a coffee, tea and spices as well. We didn't use the hot tub, but the fire pit was very enjoyable during the evenings. The stones are more comfortable to sit on than they appear. The owner is absolutely fabulous! Very responsive and got back to me within minutes on any questions I had. Would without a doubt recommend this property to anyone visit the Galena area.

    One of my favorite house rentals yet in Galena! What a lovely place! So much space, hot tub easy location to enjoy, decor point on-would definitely stay here again. Rental experience seemed very personable as well instead of a corporate rental company experience. Everything you need and more

    What a great family vacation! The home was perfect for our multi generational family getaway! Ages 3 months to 65 years old. One family used the upstairs, one the main level and the other downstairs. We all enjoyed hanging out in the main level dining and living area. Many great meals were cooked and enjoyed together. And lots of fun on the deck and in the yard. I would highly recommend this house- very clean, had everything we needed, communication with the owner was great, and space was perfect for our family. We would definitely come back.

    Beautiful house that was very open and with 10 people it wasn't crowded at all. Pool table, hot tub, fireplace and board games were just a few perks. We humg downstairs and watched tv and played cards, cooked meals in the spacious kitchen and watxjed the wildlife. I would loce to retuen in the summer time.

    After coming to the territory for 35 years, this is the nicest house we’ve stayed in! The house was so clean! The furniture was in great shape and comfortable. The kitchen was really very well stocked. The house was beautifully decorated. The extra touches (lavender sachets in closets, bathroom supplies, fans for every room, etc) were greatly appreciated!
