About this property

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year! Galena's Most affordable stay...

Don't waste your money staying in a hotel when you can stay in a 1BR/1Bath townhome in the Galena Territory. We are within walking distance to the new spa at the resort!
Our home sleeps has 1BR with a King bed and a full size sofa sleeper in the living room. The home sleeps 4 and is great for a couple or a small family getaway.
Our rates are AFFORDABLE! We are private owners that do not have to pay commission to a rental company and can pass those savings on to our guests. Can't we all use a break right now?
The home has a fully stocked kitchen, with new appliances, and a deck, that is adjacent to the North Golf Course. We are across from Lake Galena and a short walk to the resort. So convenient!
A wood burning fireplace, satellite TV in living room and bedroom, free fast Wifi, and a double Jacuzzi tub are just a few of the amenities that will help you feel right at home. Everything is on one level-no stairs.
High speed wifi allows this unit to be a perfect work from home space.

The Owners' Club includes an indoor swimming pool, outdoor swimming pool w/slides, a kiddie pool, fitness room, game room, indoor/outdoor basketball courts, tennis courts, seasonal snack bar, free WiFi and outdoor playground.

Anniversary get away!!

Beautiful property. The area is breathtaking. Lots to see and do. The property owner was very quick to respond and gave excellent suggestions on places to go. Will most definitely be staying here again. Would love to see this area in the fall season. I can just imagine the beautiful fall colors. The home itself is absolutely adorable. I loved the outdoorsy cabin motif in the home.

Territories gem

This townhome was perfect for the two of us. With such wonderful weather and the proximity of the Owner's Club, plus other outdoor activities, we were rarely inside. The deck is initmate and a shaded respite from the abundant sunshine. We did find it tough to leave the incredibly luxurious bed in the master, but we did and enjoyed all the amenities.

Galena territory.

The townhouse was nice, bed comfortable, very close to the Eagle Ridge Resort, restaurant, store, etc. Also with 15 minutes to downtown Galena, all in all very comfortable, weather wasn’t very good, but accommodations were fine.

Never stay in a hotel room again.

My wife and I stayed at this property for a Anniversary getaway. It was our 1st time staying at a VBRO property and we really enjoyed our stay. We usually stayed in motels or hotels, but not anymore. It was so nice to have our own private space with all the conveniences of home. It was very comfortable and quiet.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a husband and wife team from Chicago. We enjoy getting away to Galena, as my husband is a veteran Chicago Police Officer and I am a teacher of 30 years. Galena is a world away from the city! Hosting allows us to keep our prices low so others can experience Galena, at an affordable price. We have made beautiful memories in Galena and hope you can, as well.

Why they chose this property

The Farmstead Homes are right across Lake Galena and walking distance to the Eagle Ridge Inn. We are only steps away from the NEW Stonedrift Spa. Walking trails surround the Farmstead Homes.

What makes this property unique

Our unit is clean, comfortable and affordable. Why pay more if you don't have to?
