Nice stay in Galena - beautiful landscape and even saw a deer one morning in our backyard! Communication was great, the space was clean, plush towels, and our host provided a number of additional amenities to help enhance our stay (e.g., spices, water bottles, ice cube trays were filled, coffee, creamers, microwave popcorn). Our only recommendations for improvement would be to replace the downstairs mattress as there is a big sag that spans a large portion of the bed so not very comfortable. Also, the downstairs shower has a lot of water coming out the lower spout so the tub fills up, but water pressure was still good. Again, an overall great experience - just a couple recommendations for improvement.

The condo is located in a beautiful setting with a lovely patio overlooking the golf course. The leaves falling from the trees looked like gold flakes in the distance. Melissa’s communication was excellent and detail oriented, making us feel very welcome upon arrival! The property is a delight with nothing lacking and is perfect for any length of stay. Our one night stay was perfect! We will definitely book again and for longer next time.

This condo is lovely and well stocked, with a manager who is an excellent communicator and goes to great lengths to make sure that all goes well. Check in and check out were easy. The only shortcomings were the absence of room-darkenting shades or curtains in the bedrooms plus the location of the downstairs bathroom fan right under the upstairs bedroom bed. Since the downstairs bathroom fan goes on automatically when that room's light is turned on, if anyone sleeping downstairs turns on the bathroom light downstairs during the night, the fan goes on and can wake up people sleeping upstairs.

Galena Girls Trip

This was our first time visiting Galena and couldn’t have been happier with the overall visit. This was largely due to the lovely accommodations at Galena Territory Retreat. The unit was perfectly equipped with anything and everything we could have imagined. It was very clean and well maintained not to mention the fantastic attention to detail. The beautiful view from the back patio was a great add on. The communication with Melissa, our host was so helpful and accommodating. I just can’t say enough about how wonderful this stay was. We can’t wait for a return trip. 10/10 for sure!!
