Girls Getaway
We have the most amazing time as a great away with my mom, sister, and son. It was our first time in Galena and it was absolutely the perfect spot! The home is lovely, very comfortable, and in an amazing location! All of the info that Mary has available to guests helped us pick some great restaurants and shops! We will be back!

Beautiful house in a great location
We wanted to go to Galena for a long weekend with my adult children over spring break. The house is located one block north of Main Street and the three story house has great views of the city. We were able to walk to everything even the local magic show. The house is beautiful and even more importantly very comfortable. We all slept well in the bedrooms which were warm and super cosy. A good night sleep is so important after days of shopping and hiking. We were only a group of 4 but the house could comfortably accommodate many more people. I would highly recommend.

Eight women stayed for the weekend for our second time and we had a fabulous time at the house and in town! This house has a lot of history and the owners have done a great job keeping it beautiful! With all the historic charm! It has everything you need and then some. The linens are super nice and comfy! Owner, Mary, is very friendly and answers emails quickly!

Historic & lovely
Just steps away from downtown Galena for wonderful shopping and dining. There are a lot of stairs in the house so keep that in mind, and stairs walking to and from downtown as Church street sit above the downtown. Private parking a plus, but street parking didn't seem to be a problem. To our surprise bedrooms were all spacious and decorated so lovey. Wonderful character in the house from woodwork to beautiful light fixtures, Met the neighbor next door, lovely person. She even took a few pictures of our group before we checked out. Our stay here for girls weekend created great memories for us, Thank you!

Why they chose this property

3 floors of comfort in a great historical brick home and only minutes from downtown.

What makes this property unique

So close to downtown, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to bring this amazing place back to life. A continuing work in process, the history of the home is what makes it unique. We hope you enjoy your stay and look forward to hosting you!
