Perfect place for a quick getaway

Location was exactly what we were looking for. Close enough to Galena but also close to other surrounding activities. Jared was super responsive to every message I sent. Made the check-in and check-out process super smooth.

Would recommend!

The condo was very clean and well maintained. It was quiet and cozy! The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated having a supply of coffee there for us! This condo was also stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion! I’ve never had so many extras in a VRBO rental before! We were in a great location, minutes from downtown Galena. This was our first time visiting the area and would definitely return! Thanks for a great stay!

Relaxing Trip

We were 2 couples on a relaxing 3 night trip to the Galena Territory. Jared was very attentive to giving us prior information on our rental as well as after we arrived with more Galena and surrounding area places to eat and things to do. The back deck was our favorite place to relax and view the surrounding nature, especially the birds coming to the neighbors feeders. That being said, in our opinion, the unit is showing it’s age. Kitchen table and bathrooms are in need of an update. It was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay.

Relaxing

Our getaway was booked last minute, and we were so happy to find something that was the perfect fit for us. We spent much of our time on the back deck area where we enjoyed seeing and hearing all the wildlife around us. The townhome was very cute and supplied with everything we needed for the weekend. Our bed was a bit stiff for us, but the property manager was very kind in asking for our feedback and wanted to address any concerns we had. The check in process was very simple and Jared was sure to make sure that we had everything we needed. Definitely will be staying here again in the future!

50th Wedding Anniversary Stay

We had a lovely time in the beautiful condo. Everything was as advertised. Beyond that, the furnishings were so comfortable and well-thought-out. I am big into comfort and have some physical limitations yet everything was so easy and pleasing. You also get a lovely view across a deep ravine. We used the deck and the barbecue. We hated to leave. Our host checking in multiple times via email to be sure we were having a good time. A bonus was the Galena Owners’ Club. A beautiful facility; with a lovely outdoor pool. You won’t be disappointed.

Cozy and wellplaced townhome in the Galina Territory

The townhouse was well located in the Galina Territory, about 15-20 minutes from most places we wanted to go (the city center, Grant's home, Winery, Distillery, etc.). The townhouse itself was well-stocked with kitchen amenities, bathroom amenities, towels, linens, pillows, board games, wifi, coffee, two coffee makers (whole bean+ground compatible and a Keurig), and even a charcoal grill with charcoal and grilling tools. No detail was missed! Quiet location. Lots of light from windows and skylights during the day... and "remote" enough to see the stars at night. We saw a lot of wildlife... deer, turkeys, bunnies, squirrels, and birds during our stay. There's a large yard in the back to just relax or play. The Territory itself has tennis courts, pickleball courts, pool, etc. just a 7-10 minute drive away. There's a golf course throughout the territory (which we didn't use) but it looked beautiful and challenging. Great experience with Jared. We arrived late at night and it was easy to get in and lock up upon departure. Highly recommended for a weekend or extended getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Jared

Host profile image
Hi there, my name is Jared. I purchased this townhome as a place to escape to from the busy city life. Whenever I visit the Galena area, it always felt like a perfect escape, with easy access to many outdoor activities and trails, far away from big city crowd/noises, but still very close to the town of Galena (restaurants, breweries, grocery stores, shopping) and countless tourist attractions in the area (golf, ski, wineries, water activities, etc.). I want to share my home with others, so more people can enjoy what this area has to offer. I strive to provide the best guest experience possible and always welcome your suggestions/feedback. :-)
