Everything was perfect
I typically rent houses when I travel with my wife or with the entire family. I've rented a lot of houses. This rental impressed me the most with the attention to detail. The decorating was perfect for the location. Everything was high quality -- especially the beds/towels. This house has everything you need or could possibly want while staying there. No need to run to the store at all. I have nothing bad to say about this rental. Thanks.

Wonderful Stay at a Charming Schoolhouse Retreat
We were fortunate to be the very first guests at this adorable property!! The owners did a fantastic job renovating the old schoolhouse, blending historic charm with cozy, modern comforts. The décor creates such a welcoming atmosphere, and the home is stocked with everything you could possibly need to make your stay enjoyable.Thoughtful touches like a welcome letter, festive 4th of July bling, baskets of goodies, and cold waters waiting in the fridge were above and beyond—small extras that made a big difference.The outdoor area is perfect for relaxing: whether you're soaking in the hot tub, playing board games, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings, it offers a private, country feel. It’s just a short drive to Galena, where we enjoyed great food and shopping.Krista was incredibly responsive and available if we needed anything. My husband and I had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to anyone looking for a unique and relaxing getaway.
