6 brothers and sisters, nephews,nieces, grandchildren and a dog had a wonderful time together. There is plenty of room to spread out for relaxing, playing games, and visiting. Some spent time shopping in Galena, some hiking, playing games, pool and ping pong, and playing with the dog at a very nice nearby dog park. There is so much room for a large group to just hang and visit, and eat. A lot of time was spent on the large deck visiting and enjoying the view of the lake. We saw and heard a variety of land and water birds, and a turkey! Our host promptly provided information about the home and area and quickly answered any questions we had. We had everything we needed. Great host! We would certainly stay again when in the Galena area.
