"We loved how large the spaces were for our family to gather - a large table in the kitchen for games, large couches so we could all watch TV together, a large sunroom to enjoy coffee and reading in the morning. We also loved the hot tub and pool table at the end of the day - just another set of things we could do to relax and be together. This is our third time in Galena and my kids said it was the best space we’ve had. "
