We really enjoyed our stay! It was clear that the owners put lots of thought into the small details in the renovation of the school to become a house. The house is absolutely beautiful, the hot tub feels very private and the view of the country is idyllic. If we come back to the area, we would definitely stay here again.

Just got home from our weekend here, it couldn’t have an accommodated a family of five any better. So clean, everything we needed and more and within minutes from everything we needed I especially appreciated all the towels for the hot tub, and the fact that they had an air fryer. We will absolutely be back.

Our stay was amazing! The Pleasant View School was a perfect getaway for my wife and I. It is warm and inviting and very clean. Close to Galena and Dubuque. The school house theme was great and interesting history too. A great view of the sunset. A welcoming hand written note from our host was a nice personal touch.

We also loved how we were out In country, it was so peaceful! The host was very informative, even left me a little note with tips on construction in the area and which routes I could take instead. She was also very responsive with any questions I had. I highly recommend staying here, I know I definitely will be returning!

We had a wonderful stay at this cute and cozy remodeled schoolhouse just minutes outside of Galena. The charm of its history combined with modern updates made it such a unique and comfortable place to stay. The home was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. It felt peaceful and private while still being a short drive to all the shops, restaurants, and attractions Galena has to offer. You can truly feel the care that went into preserving the character of the old one-room schoolhouse while making it warm and inviting. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special, memorable place to stay near Galena!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming rural school house turned vrbo. The setting is peaceful, beautiful, and incredibly relaxing. Even though it’s conveniently close to a main road, there was very little traffic noise, so it still felt private and serene.One of the highlights was spending evenings in the hot tub with the fire pit glowing right beside us while listening to music and the sounds of nature all around — the chittering of insects, birds, and the quiet countryside atmosphere made it unforgettable. It was the perfect place to unwind and disconnect from the stress of everyday life.The home itself was cozy, clean, and welcoming, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with beautiful scenery and a relaxing outdoor setup, this place is truly a gem. We would absolutely stay again!The hosts were fantastic, very accommodating and responsive. Will definitely be staying here when we visit Galena next!
