Why The Owner chose Galena

I had never been to The Galena Territory until my life long friends purchased their home. They invited me to visit at which point I fell in love with the wooded rolling acres and historical Galena. There is so much captured beauty in those 6,800 acres. The location is a short easy drive from Chicago. Every time I get in my car and head to Galena my heart lightens, so many fond memories with friends. The Galena Territory is a beautiful place to relax, unwind, and rejuvenate. My chosen special getaway!

What makes this house unique

I absolutely love being at my home in Galena. My home is located near the end of the road allowing for quiet peaceful surroundings. I enjoy the closeness to nature, watching wildlife leisurely stroll though the property, hearing cows mooing in the distance. The back upper deck provides open ski to hear as well as view the hot air balloons in flight, they pass near the home. As the stillness of evening arrives I look forward to relaxing in the hot tub, star gazing(the stars are so bright),and on cooler evenings I enjoy gathering wood to start a fire in the outside fire pit to roast marsh mellows and make smores. There are so many events, activities, walking trails, etc. that I will never be able to do it all. I hope you choose to stay and play in my home, and as I do each and every time, leave looking forward to your return trip to 15 Washburne Lane in The Galena Territory.

Beautiful Rental in Galena!

Just writing to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at the Comfort House in Galena. My family had such a great time celebrating Mother's Day weekend there and my mother just loved your house. Everything was beautiful and meticulously maintained. We had a great time using the hot tub and just relaxing in the great room watching TV. It is obvious that you put a lot of time and money into making a beautiful resort home, yet it was comfortable and homey too. We had everything we needed including instructions for operating the hot tub and expanding the kitchen table. The view was also breathtaking and very private. We definitely plan to come back! Thank you for all your help.

Couldn't have stayed at a better place with six of my greatest friends. Having a king-size bed in each bedroom was a big plus, as was the 8-person hottub. Super comfy, close to town, PERFECT!!

Comfort house totally lives up to its name

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our three-night stay at the Comfort House, over our daughter's spring break. Just as the photos depict, it's immaculately clean and very easy to settle into right away. The owner quickly responded to inquiries and was great to deal with. The home is equipped nicely with everything a family needs, including bath products (a nice touch) and there were sweet decorative springtime items around the home that made us feel especially welcome on Easter Sunday. We prepared several meals from the fully-equipped kitchen including a cookout on the nice grill, used the fireplace, the fire pit, and the hot tub was enjoyed daily. It's in a very private, quiet setting and the star gazing at night was particularly stunning and enjoyed by all. Our entire experience was wonderful! Galena has so many fun and beautiful things to offer - we enjoyed walking near Thunder Bay Falls Park in The Territory, where we saw an Eagle soaring overhead, and Casper Bluffs is a favorite remote place of ours to explore. We enjoy taking the scenic back roads around the area. Thanks for offering your beautiful home as a vacation rental.

Our family group of 7 (including 2 children) recently vacationed at "The Comfort House". We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was beautiful, well maintained, and exceeded all of our expectations. It was a wonderful place to stay for a relaxing time with family. We also enjoyed sightseeing and shopping in downtown Galena, and we enjoyed spending time at the owner's clubhouse. We would like to visit again and would definitely recommend this home to others.
