About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Stunning views, amazing gathering spaces, NOW with HOT TUB

Bring your family or friends to enjoy this lovely retreat in the Galena Territory. Step out to the deck to enjoy the stunning view of the Driftless Region any season whether dining, relaxing, roasting marshmallows, or star gazing. Plus enjoy the new Hot Tub installed March 2024!!

Lower level (entry level) houses 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom, along with laundry facilities. The larger bedroom has both a queen bed and a sleeper sofa.

The upper level features open concept living, dining and kitchen spaces plus a third bedroom and full bathroom. Relax around the fireplace and just hang out together.

The kids will love the loft for playing games and hanging out. The loft also houses a futon for an additional sleeping option. What kid wouldn't want to sleep in the "tree house?"

Please note: we're situated on a hill side, set into a bluff. That means stunning views but it also means LOTS of steps!

We are pet friendly with a $50 pet fee for additional cleaning often needed when furry friends come along. Please be sure to add pets to your reservation and the fee will be added.

Relax with our easy check in and check out process - no long list of things to do before leaving.

Of course, as guests of the Galena Territory, you have access to all of the amenities including indoor and outdoor pools, world-class golf courses, Lake Galena for boating and fishing, and horseback riding. Historic downtown Galena is just 10 minutes away.
