A wonderful, charming and relaxing location to take a break from life or to party it up. Walking distance is Lake Galena where you can rent a boat to cruise around, go fishing, or dock at random places and explore the forest. Fish (lots of it) from the peer or rent a boat, enjoy volleyball, soccer, basketball and tennis courts, as well as one of the best Golf courses in the world! Nearby is Galena town with its civil war-era charm, private wineries with wine tasting every day, local cheese makers, unique sauces, sweets, as well as antique stores. Fine selection of restaurants, from fancy French, Italian, to small town diners and burger joints (one literally called 'Burger Joint', its awesome!). About 20 minutes away is the Mississippi river and town of Dubuque. There you can find vegas-style casinos. This is a great destination for a family vacation, or just a friends getaway to nature. We can house up to 20 people in 2 houses.

Great Stay!

We rented the property as both a hunting week and then for a family gathering over the Thanksgiving holiday. Both stays were wonderful with all amenities you need to have a full Thanksgiving meal.

The owner (Tatiana) was great to deal with and quickly resolved what minor issues we had. I would definitely rent the home again and highly recommend the property for future family gatherings. You can also rent the home next door for larger groups.

Great Property - Have a Wonderful Time

Our family stayed at the 8 Waterford property and we had a great time. The house was very spacious and we had a lot of fun exploring the Galena area. The clubhouse and pool were great. We have 13 month old twins that had a great time in the kiddie pool. Our 6 yo daughter also had a great time in the pool.

Highly recommended.

I would highly recommend this property. The house was great, the clubhouse and new pools were wonderful and the area was beautiful. My family came up for a week and it was a very relaxing week. We were greeted by Jeff and he gave some great fishing tips to my husband and son and they had great luck fishing in the evenings... the pools were great, the people friendly and it was a wonderful in all kinds of weather. Thanks to Tatiana for sharing her home. PS.. there is great wild life to watch from the screened porch.

Beautiful and Relaxing

We spent the first week of May in the cabin and loved every minute of it. What a beautiful property. We felt right at home and didn't want to leave when it was time to go home. The design is very nice as well as the furnishings. We really enjoyed the screened porch/deck. We saw wild turkeys wandering through the yard almost every evening. Tatiana was so easy to work with for our booking and actually called us at the cabin the first day to make sure we had everything we needed. Jeff was great about answering our questions and making sure everything was ready for our arrival. We will definitely stay here again when we visit the Galena area in the future. The property is just a short drive away from historic downtown Galena.

We just got back from Galena and this wonderful cabin. Tatiana ( the owner) is a great person and answered all our questions and help us with everything. Jeff also.
The cabin is really nice, warm, clean and has everything you need. We had a great, quite, relaxing time. A lot of wild turkeys and beautiful birds around.
Thank you Tatiana for everything.

October Vacation

  • Stayed: Oct 2011
As senior citizens, my wife, her best friend, our dog and I vacationed here from October 3 -7. The house was comfortable, had a modern kitchen and 2 very nice bathrooms. We all enjoyed the screened porch, as well as occasionally watching programs on the big screen TV. It was a 15-minute ride thru the woods and fields into Galena. We were quite pleased to be away from the city and enjoyed the rolling hills vista. Unfortunately, the lake was barely visible and difficult to access. Considering that we normally travel to the "North Shore" of Minnesota and rent on the shore of Lake Superior, our stay here was surprisingly refreshing (and less costly). We would recommend this rental to those seeking a dog-friendly, relaxing vacation in the Galena territory.

Dual Family Galena Vacation

  • 4 of 5
  • Submitted: Sep 24, 2011
  • Stayed: Jul 2011
We stayed in this very nice log cabin home for the first week of August in 2011. Although a recent storm closed the clubhouse pool, the nearby waterfall park and some of the recreational areas we still managed to find plenty to do to keep our two families busy. The countryside is some of the most beautiful I have seen in my life. The town of Galena is so inviting and enyoyable. The public pool (Alice T. Virtue Memorial Park) in Galena was quite reasonable and kept our families cool in the 90+ temperatures. The property owner was very helpful and quite reasonable to work with. I would highly recommend staying in this home in the Galena Territory.

Owner's Response: Glad you enjoyed the stay! Sorry about the bad timing with that storm.

The owner was very responsive to all of our questions before booking the reservation as well as during our stay. She even called us during a heavy snow fall to be sure everything was ok. The driveway and street was plowed by 11 am. We loved the open concept layout of the home. With high cathedral ceilings throughout, the loft area allows a spectular view of the great room, kitchen, and dining area. The large flat panel TV above the fireplace in the great room can also be easily viewed from the kitchen and dining area. One of the best features is the private hot tub located off the deck in the backyard. Since we like to vacation with our two dogs, we really appreciated that the home is pet friendly. We enjoyed walking our dogs on the streets of the Territory. The area is scenic and beautiful. The drive to the Eagle Ridge General Store is only 10 minutes, and the drive to Main Street is only 15 minutes. What an excellent way to spend a long weekend!
