The location was perfect for three ladies enjoying some time together after a 50 year high school reunion. We could park the car in the driveway and walk to most anywhere we wanted to go. The house was charming in it's style and decor and looked exactly as pictured. If we had a question or need, the owner was quick to respond and lend a hand. Even though we wouldn't need all the space, I've already thought it would be fun to bring my husband back here for a visit and to explore Galena a bit more. Definitely worth a return stay!

Location
The house was within walking distance to the Main street for shopping and great resturants. Loved to read about the history of the house and the lay out was perfect for the 6 of us. The furniture was comfortable and fit the decor of the house. I would recommend anyone who loves history, wants to stay close to the shopping area and feel they are in a safe neighborhood to stay here.

We had a great time. Location is perfect and within walking distance to everything downtown. If you aren't able to do stairs very well then you will not want to stay though as all rooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors.

December Getaway
We have been coming to Galena each December for nearly 30 years. This year we found the Row House and it is our new favorite place to stay. The house is spacious enough for a large group of people to stay comfortably. The furniture and décor are cozy and lovely. The beds were comfy and warm. Everything you could ever need for your stay has been thought of: Lots of towels, dishes, utensils, coffee makers and pods, and even umbrellas are available and handy. We could not have dreamed of a better place to spend our December weekend getaway! We will definitely be back!

A great family reunion
Three of my brothers and I (with spouses) stayed at the delightful Bench Street rowhouse in Galena from three Wonder nights. We have a great reunion, with time spent walking the streets and heights of Galena as well as enjoying our 1845 Galena home. Well appointed and equipped, the rowhouse provided every comfort. We will be back.
