    Beautiful home with lots of room. Like having private bathroom for each bedroom. Upstairs sink facets need replacing. Beds very firm. Need to make sure dispensers in showers filled. Nice big kitchen. Enjoyed hot tub. Need to be conscious of doors locking when going from inside to outside.

    Amazingly clean! Perfect number of bedroom suites for our group of six (2 couples and two singles)! Having to take our trash to the dump was weird and lack of workable tv remotes (dead or missing batteries) were a negative, but we would still stay there in the future! Again, amazingly clean!

    This was easily the best rental experience of our lives. From check in to check out everything was far above what we expected. We were a group of 10 that included a four-year-old and a 95 year old and everybody loved it! The highlights were definitely the house itself which spread out the noise of all the grandchildren and gave plenty of comfort with the ensuite bathrooms and the huge table where we could join together to have meals. Loved the kitchen - spacious enough for two Cooks to work together. Everything was there that we needed and when I mentioned to the host that they could use some more silverware, they were so responsive that they asked me to send a picture of the pattern so that they could order the same one.I can't say enough about the Owners Club. We were there when it was 95, so we really appreciated the spectacular pool that overlooks the Galena Hillside. There was also a game room, a basketball card, tennis courts that are an amazing condition, and an indoor pool. This was definitely the favorite spot for the grandchildren.Wi-Fi was a little spotty at times but nothing that really affected the trip. It was actually a good thing to tell the kids that the Wi-Fi was out! I really can't think of anything that could have gone better. We absolutely loved it and are already talking about rebooking!

    Great, quiet location. Very spacious. Plenty of room for our family of 6. We really liked that each bedroom had it's own bathroom and shower. Hot tub was excellent. Kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils we needed. We would stay here again!

    This home was beautiful in a natural setting. The home is well equipped; we loved that bedrooms each had their own bathroom. It is a great place to stay with family or friends. The owner communicated well and I felt all needs were met.

    Two old friends shared five days at this wonderful home, enjoying the full moon, the nightly fires, and the sunsets! We went into Galena each day for history browsing and great lunches (Bread and Vine was our favorite...) and one day drove north for a tour of Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin. But our favorite part of the stay was being in the house, surrounded by the natural beauty and rekindling our friendship.

    We had 4 couples in our party. Each couple had their own bedroom with bathroom. The living room, kitchen, the whole upstairs was very spacious. The basement was the same, and walks right out to the yard and hot tub. Beautiful property! It was a bit chilly but the deck was amazing and great view! Communication was great as well.

    The house layout was perfect, and the hot tub and pool table were a big hit with our kids. The areas were clean and the house instructions were very clear and organized. Only a few hiccups happened, two being out of the owners control, but still a bummer for us: the indoor pool was closed, but there was an alternate location to swim which was so nice, and the dryer wasn’t working so we couldn’t dry our wet cloths. One thing that I was disappointed in was the cleanliness of the pots and pans. Several were really dirty, but thar

    This was our second time to rent this home for our group of 8 golfers. The kitchen is well equipped so we were able to prepare our own meals, eat in, and not have to go out after playing. There are several areas to gather and relax, including a large screened porch, a nice deck with 8 chairs, a table and gas grill, a family room with cushy seating for 6 or 8, and a game room with a billiards table. Several of our group enjoyed the hot tub too. Our only criticism is that the beds are queen-sized even though the room sizes could have easily accommodated king-sized beds. That's a little awkward for our 8 guys sharing beds. Nevertheless, we're likely to rent again.

    This house provided the perfect setting for our annual family get away. With four different families, everyone had their own room with plenty of bathrooms to acommodate the ten of us. Great floor plan & plenty of options to eat (inside, outdoors, screened in porch). The kids thoroughly enjoyed riding their scooters up & down the sloped driveway. Our family goes somewhere every year, & this house by far had the best outfitted kitchen. It had everything you could think of for cooking, including a hand mixer, blender, insta pot, crock pot & griddle. I would highly recommend this property. Our famiy made some great memories.

    The house was the perfect size for our family. The layout was perfect. The hot tub was clean and I could smell the chlorine (something we have not experienced at other homes in the area). We loved the pool table and all of the board games. We cook ALOT, and noticed some of the cookware needs to be replaced, but they have everything you need to create amazing meals. I recommend to always stay in the territory so you have access to the owner's club. The kids love the pool! Overall, we would love to stay here again!

    We had a great stay - there is a lovely path with a great vista at the end of the road (about .75 mi). The house was clean, the beds comfortable and location quiet. We really enjoyed the porch and the beautiful birds and nature.
