The condo was immaculately cleaned. We enjoyed having a fire in the fireplace. It was a very pretty wooded area. The toilets are very low. As senior citizens, we prefer taller toilets. We were disappointed that the pool was so far away.

Myself and 5 friends stayed here for a girls weekend and had a wonderful time. The unit was very clean and as described in the listing. Galena is just a short drive so we spent a good amount of time there eating and shopping. We would stay at this location again in a heartbeat.
