I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jennifer and this house. We loved the beautiful views, fireplaces, and ping pong! Jennifer thinks of all the details and is very responsive. Check in was very smooth and she left excellent instructions for how to use things in the home and guides to the area. Highly recommend! ~ Kristy

 Highly recommend this house for a family or friend gathering place. Location was beautiful and secluded. Only 15 minutes outside of downtown Galena. Jennifer was an absolute DREAM to communicate with and really cared about making sure our stay was great! ~ Hillary
