Great Staycation!

This property was perfect for our girlfriend (9) get together. Very spacious home, clean, easy access. Great accommodations-extra chairs outside for the fire pit and appreciated the plentiful wood for the bonfire, beach towels for the hot tub also much appreciated. We definitely recommend this rental property. Completely satisfied with everything.

Friends Galore

We enjoyed celebrating! 3 out of 9 of us were celebrating our 70th birthdays! What a fabulous place to do that. With 5 bedrooms and 5 private bathrooms we were well accommodated. The fire pit was a nice way to wind down after enjoying all the sites and adventures Galena had to offer. We loved it!

Large space, great getaway

We were a group of two families with 5 kids total ranging in ages from 12-17. We enjoyed our time at the home and everyone had enough space. The teens walked over to the club house to play basketball and hang out. I wish we were closer to walking paths that weren’t in the full sun, but we ended up driving to one in the territory and it was a beautiful walk. We had some questions while were were there and the management company always answered promptly.

Great house!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was perfect for our vacation - loved having a bathroom for each bedroom! It was very clean and it seemed like they thought of everything we might need. The clubhouse pool was fabulous and we loved the views in the neighborhood. A couple of the dining room chairs and one of the rocking chairs on the porch need their legs fixed, and there are wasp/hornet nests in the front tree and behind the light on the deck. Also, the pillows in the spa are falling apart.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a wonderful stay at Fore Augusta Drive. We loved the screened in porch off of the family room which had a wonderful view. The placement of the home allowed for privacy when sitting out on the screened porch and in the hot tub. Location is fantastic as it's very close to the Owners' Club and East Course pro shop. Highly recommend!

There were several areas (living room, dining room, sunroom & deck) that were comfortable and roomy enough for all of us to gather. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped. The home was very clean and comfortable. Walking trails were close by. We definitely hope it is available for our next trip!
