Excellent residence in beautiful surroundings
We stayed here to be close to the river as we planned to ride up and down the Mississippi and enjoy its mighty beauty. We loved that the unit had an attached bathroom on all four bedrooms. Everyone in our group appreciated the privacy. It is located in a cozy wooded area surrounded by other nice houses and golf courses. It was very private, and the houses had adequate space between them. The host checked on us often to make sure our stay was great. Checkout was easy, which we appreciated. We definitely would stay there again! This is a 5 star property.

Great for a group
This house had a great layout for our group of 8 friends. Each of the four bedrooms has a private bathroom which was great. The living room/kitchen area is nice and open and perfect for hanging out. Unfortunately the hot tub was broken - it was sort of useable, but too hot and then too cold…so we didn’t end up being able to use it. That was pretty disappointing, as the hot tub was a big factor for us choosing this property. It seemed to be quite weathered, so not super surprised that it was having issues. The property has an electronic lock with key code, so that was very convenient, but the buttons are getting worn so took a few tries to get them punched in correctly. the information communicated/rental agreement process was a bit complicated. The rental agreement had to be signed using a website outside of VRBO, the instruction sheet was a Google doc that included instructions on using the lock, but the access code was back in the rental agreement. Just felt a bit complicated/clunky. Other than those minor things and the hot tub, this was a great experience. Kitchen had everything we needed, the house was clean, and the property manager seemed to be readily available if we needed anything. A wonderful house to stay in if you want space to hang out and still be relatively close to shopping and restaurants downtown.

Family fun!
We love coming to Galena each year and have rented many properties in the territory. I would actually say the pictures did not do this property justice. The cleanest property I have stayed at in over 15+ properties. The owner was excellent with his communication with me. Only issue was the tricky front door lock system. Excellent screened in porch/outdoor area. Layout was very open and spacious. The fact that every bedroom had a full bath was amazing! Also the kitchen was fully stocked with anything and everything you could need. Extra plus, thank you for more than 1 roll of toilet paper and 1 garbage bag!! Appliances were top notch also. Stephen Thank you!

Very relaxing stay
While the home is set in a neighborhood with houses to either side, it is tucked in a wooded area and a private drive in the back of the home. We really enjoyed the screened-in porch for our early morning coffee visits. Sleeps 8 comfortably in four beds. I would say the pull-out couch bed probably could count as a sleeping space for a small child or two. The kitchen was stocked full with every appliance, nice dishes and glasses, and a very nice grill. Thank you!

Falsely accused of damage
I was excited to write this review as we enjoyed our stay very much. It was beautiful & had everything we needed. We loved it & were planning on returning. We treated it as our own home. Yet the day after our trip I received a shocking message from the rental property stating their cleaning crew noticed damages & were going to charge when they had an estimate. I immediately asked the owner to please provide more information as we are 100% sure there were no damages done to the property. It’s been 12+ days & have gotten no response from them at all. I’ve tried to reach out yet no response. I’m still waiting on one. We followed all their house rules as stated in the red binder located in their home. We STILL haven’t heard anything and they do make you sign a contract out of vrbo. I will be extremely disappointed if they end up charging for something our group did not do. It was a beautiful home but if you stay I recommend getting the damage insurance vrbo offers, as you may end up paying for false claims.

Awesome venue for family get togethers!
We had a bit of a family reunion. The house was in fabulous condition, perfect for relaxing, with plenty of space for active young grandchildren to play and/or chill, and with great kitchen facilities for family dinners. We really enjoyed the trip to the Dubuque aquarium and the swimming pool at the Owner's club. One son has now changed plans for an upcoming anniversary to come to the Galena Territories.

25 yr Anniversary Weekend w/Family
The house was as beautiful as it's pictures. Plenty if room for a party of eight and then some if need be. A couple of corks here and there. Even though there was a ton of snow everywhere, Jo Davies County did an excellent job clearing the roads which made it easy to get around town. Galena is always a favorite and no doubt we will be back.
