Comfy and cozy holiday-season getaway!
Sarah’s house was so comfortable and clean and beautifully decorated (both in general and for the holidays). Everything was exactly as advertised on VRBO. And Sarah was a very responsive and helpful host, who thought of everything to make guests comfortable, and there are helpful notes everywhere for everything you need to know for using and finding things around the house. The beds were amazingly comfortable! The location is in the Galena Territories, which is a really easy and beautiful country drive on paved roads 10-15 min from downtown Galena.

Galena VRBO
This property was beautiful! The house was among the rolling hills close to Galena. The owner/ management, thought of everything a party of eight or less might need! The home was clean and decorated nicely. We had nice weather and enjoyed the deck and the wildlife. Our group highly recommend this property.

Best short term rental I have rented
I am a short term rental owner and I was blown away by how much these hosts prepared the home and thought about absolutely everything for their guests. 5 girlfriends enjoyed a two night stay at this well stocked and clean home. From the original booking until the check out process I was very impressed. Thank you so much for opening your home for others to enjoy! We will be back.

Our stay in this home was great. From check in to check out it was seamless. Response from Sarah was always quick. The QR code for house instructions made everything such an easy process. The home was clean, beds were comfy, lots of extras provided. We are already planning for another trip. I gave 5 ♡ instead of 🌟 because we loved it so much. It felt like home.

We had a small family thanksgiving gathering in Galena where we enjoyed the buffet at the resort and family time at the rental house. It was perfect for our family (slept 6). The house was beautiful and the owner (Sarah) was responsive (even though everything was perfect). Highly recommended.
