Wonderful spot for family (2- and 4-legged)

The room was very large and comfortable. The bed and bedding was so comfortable. We wish we knew where she got them from! Huge comfy bath towels, and a nice shower. The location can’t be beat.

Wonderful stay at the Federal House

Very charming property, conveniently located to shops and restaurants downtown with the quiet of a neighborhood. Kate, the host, was so welcoming and accommodating. She has thought of every amenity imaginable! The breakfasts were home made and fabulous. This is the best appointed property we have stayed at. Extremely comfy bed and suite. If visiting Galena again, we will definitely stay here!!

Miscommunication but made up for it.

Communication was the biggest concern. We were informed that we would have to microwave breakfast prepared the day before. The host did make up for it & gave us a certificate to a local restaurant

Amazing stay at the Federal House

Wife and I went to Galena for a weekend in early May and had an amazing time, in large part due to the beautiful home and services provided by Kate, her husband and support crew. Couldn't have gone more smoothly or been a more comfortable stay. The Federal House is truly amazing and we plan to visit again this coming Fall.

Charming property and wonderful hosts

The Federal House in Galena is perfectly located just a matter of steps from Main Street shops, restaurants, and other attractions. There are only two suites in the house, so no problems with crowds or noise. We were welcomed personally by the property owners who made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. They also checked in from time to time by text during our stay to provide restaurant recommendations and other useful information. The breakfasts were customized according to our preferences and were absolutely wonderful. We enthusiastically recommend this property.

Great place to stay

We stayed at the Federal House over New Year’s Eve and Day. We just loved it. Kate was great and easily reached. The house was historic and decked out for the holidays. The walk to Galena’s Main Street was short but scenic. The chef, Gabby, made excellent breakfasts. We would definitely recommend the Federal House to you.

Historic Property w/Spacious Suite

My wife and I loved our two-night stay at this historic property. The suite we rented is spacious, and the king bed is wonderfully comfortable; same for the other suite, which we walked through on our second day after it had been vacated. Our breakfasts were quite a treat--egg skillet, scrambled eggs, sausage patty, bacon, hash browns, homemade cinnamon toast, fruit, and oatmeal. Plus, our cook (Gabbie), who also shared a wealth of information about natural health boosters, and our host (Kate) were wonderful to talk to during our visit. We will stay here again when visiting Galena.

Awesome B&B and Host

Our visit was for a weekday 3-night stay in Galena. The room had everything a person possibly want or need - clean, well-organized, and beautifully decorated. Kate was in contact inquiring about our needs and was very responsive. The B&B is located within a short walk to Main Street where all the shops and restaurants are situated. A full (delicious) breakfast is served in the dining room at your convenience or delivered to your door. A return visit to the Federal House B&B is in my future! Oh, and a sweet patio to sit outside.

Home away from home

Kate is the owner. Super friendly & an awesome communicator. She will bend over backwards to make your stay enjoyable. This B&B is 1 block from all the shopping. Our room was clean, decorated with taste & comfortable. No sharing of bath or shower. Everything works as you would expect. Amy cooks the b-fast. She is fast & efficient & an awesome cook. She goes out of her way to please. Would we go back? You bet we would. Thanks Kate for the wonderful experience.
