Secluded Country Dream with all the Fun!

House was perfect for my family to relax and visit. Would stay there again.

We had such a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free from the moment we booked. The home was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared. Everything we needed was there, and we truly felt welcomed. There were no issues at all, just an easy and enjoyable stay. We would happily stay here again and would absolutely choose any property this host manages. Highly recommend!

What memories! We had to make changes to our visit because of weather and the host was so amenable and truly made everything work for us.The size of the home enabled all children and adults to relax and enjoy.

Perfect house for our family getaway. We are already talking about coming back!

I booked this for my family (8 adults and one baby) for a little family vacation. We all had such a great time and the home is beautiful! If we ever had an issue or question, Lia was very quick to reply and made sure that everything was perfect for us. We would love to stay at one of her rentals again :).

If you love the woods, you’ll love Owl’s Nest. It’s built into a hillside, so looking out the wall of windows - and especially from the screened in porch - you feel like you’re in a treehouse. The screened in porch was our group’s favorite spot, with a table seating 8 and protection from bugs, we spent entire days (and nights!) out there. And if you want to walk in the woods, there are paths extending from the firepit area. The trees are tall and the shade deep. We saw and heard wildlife (including owls at night), but it was mostly very quiet. We never even saw or heard any neighbors.But Owl’s Nest has more than nature. There were plenty of spaces on multiple levels for our group to spread out. The pool table room was a big hit, as was the hot tub. The media room was great for video games, and the poker room worked well for our tabletop gamers.The kitchen was well stocked and well organized. We were able to cook everything we wanted, and the double ovens came in very handy for feeding a crowd. Best of all, with so many bedrooms with attached bathrooms, the house was very comfortable for multiple couples to share.One warning I’ll share is that, because the property is on a slope, the ground around the house (especially around the firepit) is mostly uneven. We learned to watch our step everywhere to avoid trips and falls.The property was very clean, the decor tasteful, and the area beautiful and peaceful. Perfect for a gathering of family and/or friends!

10/10 experience! We could not have asked for a more comfortable home with picturesque features and incredible amenities. The house is an amazing fit for a large group, everybody slept comfortably. Located close to downtown Galena and Chestnut Mountain Resort, we found that the central location was a key factor in facilitating a convenient experience for us. Our host was incredibly thorough in providing information before we arrived, and expeditious in her responses to any questions we had during our stay. The hot tub, pool table, and fireplace provided endless entertainment and exceeded the expectations that we had for the property. A truly wonderful birthday experience and we cannot wait to come back!

We love the Galena Territory, and we loved this home! This home was exactly as described. The rooms are spacious and very clean (and we're very picky when it comes to what people consider clean). The furnishings and decor in the home are beautiful. So many items we kept saying to ourselves that I'd love in my own home. Such nice touches. The kitchen is perfectly stocked with everything you could possibly need to make meals at home and all the little extras that you don't find in most rentals these days (extra bath, bedding, and laundry supplies) were very much appreciated. Basement had plenty of entertainment to keep everyone busy with the rain, as well as heading to the Owner's Club to use the pool. Lia was extremely timely with any questions and accommodations to our schedule. Wish we lived closer but would absolutely choose to stay in Lia's home again. Mother Nature didn't exactly cooperate for our outdoor plans in downtown Galena. All the more reason why we were so grateful that our time stuck inside could be spent in a great home and in the beautiful Galena Territory.

Everything was great, except internet service not working. Would stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at Owl’s Stay. The leaves were changing and we felt like we were at our own autumn hideaway. The house had all the space and amenities we needed. The fire pit is not as far from the house as it appears in the photos and was a great place to just hang out. All the couches were super cozy and the table big enough for dinners and games! We had five adult couples and spent most of our time at the house but it was a short drive to Apple picking and wine tasting as well. Lastly, the owner is very responsive and available. She will handle any issues so no worries! Book & Enjoy!
