truly a home away from home, don' miss this one!!!

This was an absolutely fantastic place to stay. I had a friend's wedding in the area and being one of the further away guests travel expenses were already adding up fast. most of the hotels in the area for the time I needed to be there were a bit over my budget. Digging around a bit more, I found the belle Aire mansion guest house just down the road from one of the suggested hotels. It looked like a neat place, and the price was WAYYY more fair than the surrounding options I could find. Not knowing what to expect, I showed up around 6pm a day early ( I mis booked 11-14 instead of 10-13) and just walked in. Instantly the hosts were able to adjust my booking at no cost and have my room ready in 30 minutes. The room was very charming, as well as the open and friendly accommodations throughout the house (the upstairs front porch is an absolute must. grab some coffee or tea and enjoy the relaxing ambiance). Hotel breakfast? forget that and instead enjoy a much more pleasant home cooked meal in the company of others! I was the only one there my first couple of days, and had a 4am flight the last day when it was fully booked so missed the full capacity breakfast experience. Regardless, the hosts were still fantastic company and kept me with plenty to talk about while getting ready for the day! Truly an unforgettable stay compared to any hotel I've ever been to. Whenever I find the time, I 100% plan to go back for a peaceful retreat. do yourself a favor and check it out!!!!!

The hosts were great. The coffee was waiting for me at 6 am. The breakfast was delicious! I called it biscuits and gravy but it was more like french tost lol we had some great laughs. I will plan another trip here in the future. Downtown Galena is really neat. We checked out some hiking trails and had a blast.

The property was very nice and rooms reasonably priced. The breakfast was good. Cass, the innkeeper was very sweet, friendly and helpful. Her twins are adorable. However, I think that the towels need an upgrade and bathroom essentials should be included even if that means that she raises her prices. Also, some additional lighting is needed on the front of the property to be easier to find. My overall stay was great! Thanks again Cass and family.

Outstanding bed and breakfast

Wonderful experience. We stayed in the Garden Vue Suite and were extremely happy with the room. It was very spacious and charmingly decorated. Our hosts Cass and Steve were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast both mornings was delicious. We will definitely stay there again if we are in the Galena area.

Steve and Cass and kids are very friendly,The food was wonderful. They also had snacks and coffee readily available. Chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven at night. The house is old but a lot of charm. For persons with difficulty climbing stairs there is a bungalow with a ramp,behind the home. Our room was small bed squeaky, but they did have bigger rooms . We were not in the room very much . The town has a lot of history and things to explore nearby. We greatly enjoyed our stay.
