Great house, greater location
Perfect location in downtown Galena a short walk to shopping, restaurants and nightlife. The house was perfect for my family of 5 with a bed for everyone. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner in the well stocked kitchen and had no problem finding whatever utensil or pot/pan that we needed. The house was very clean and stocked with towels, soap, shampoo, etc... We will not hesitate to rent it again.

50th birthday get away
This was the perfect property for us. Once we arrived and parked the car we didn’t have to drive anywhere. We were able to walk Main Street and we were located just steps from several of our favorite restaurants and wineries. We enjoyed the fact there were enough beds for all of us and 2 bathrooms as well. The house was very well stocked and we enjoyed the extra blankets and pillows for movie night.

Comfortable and clean
Lauren’s home was very clean and nicely furnished. Air conditioning was set just right with fans in each room for more air flow which was helpful in the upstairs bedrooms. The kitchen was stocked well with appliances and utensils. Great location for heading down to the Main street in Galena. Lauren gave tips for parking and bypassing construction. We enjoyed our stay in this home!
