A wonderful 5 days
My adult son and I try to take a a small-scale road trip together every Spring. This past week, we built so many new memories, in great part due to this wonderful property. It’s super-clean, with character and an historical ambience. We found so much to do in the Galena area, including nearby towns and the Galena River Trail. Coming “home” each evening to this cozy place was a comforting feeling after each very active day. My son, who has a developmental disability due to childhood stroke, savored every minute of our week and loved making up stories about who you used to live in the house and stories behind many of the objects there. And I certainly cherished every moment with him. This house had a lot to do with a very memorable week, and I highly recommend it.

Galena home
It is a beautiful little home. But they should be more clear about the second bedroom is in the basement . The kids were suppose to stay in that room but the door has glass windows and can be broke in easily . There is no dead bolt. We are city people and did not feel that this house was secure. I ended up in the basement bedroom and I was even scared.It doesn’t have a window shade so anyone can see in. I will make sure the next house has security system or stay in hotel.

Cute but tight
The place was a little smaller than expected and so somewhat tight for 4 adults. Bathrooms were a bit uncomfortable. Overall, an okay stay, cozy, but tight.

Beautiful property
This is a beautifully restored cottage with one gorgeous bedroom downstairs with a half bath and one nice sized bedroom on the top floor with a full bath. The attention to the historic detail of the property is amazing and it is perfectly designed. The ground level has a small kitchen, sitting room and dining room/ media space. It is small but was perfect for the 3 of us life long friends to gather. It does only have one parking space but street parking is available and worked for us. It is within walking distance from the Main street where the shopping/ restaurants are but be in shape for the walk back uphill. 😁 Tanya the owner was very responsive to messages and it was clean and well supplied with towels, kitchen gadgets etc. Should we plan our next girlfriend getaway in the area would definitely reserve again!
