Myself and 5 friends stayed here for a girls weekend and had a wonderful time. The unit was very clean and as described in the listing. Galena is just a short drive so we spent a good amount of time there eating and shopping. We would stay at this location again in a heartbeat.

OK for the most part but we've had better. Upper bed was extremely firm. Seating was fine, decent tv Kitchen was ok but missing some basics such as potholders. Location was great nice and quiet.
This was a beautiful place to stay. The home was clean and beautiful, we really enjoyed the deck, it was in a great location. And the price was incredible. Just one request, I missed that the description said it was a split-level home. You should mention it is not handicapped accessible. I am in a wheelchair and the high entry step and having to go up or down stairs to get in was a challenge. Well worth the challenge, but a challenge none the less!

Nice place. Hard to get in the door as the landing is small with stairs on both ends. Between suitcases and snowy shoes it was a real chore. Beds were to the hard side. Someone moved the cushion on the couch and found a dirty sock and other debris in it. Coffee maker at best would have been done brewing the full pot in an hour. Cup we took out of the cupboard had lipstick on it. (I wiped off and it certainly was a chore)

Loved the condo! Everything was better than expected and just the right size for two couples. We enjoyed the fireplace every evening! Think you’d want to know that the dishwasher is not attached to the counter and kept falling out when we placed dishes in it. Just needs a couple of screws. Also there were not nearly enough washcloths in the bathrooms...just five cloths for 4 people for three nights. We hope to visit again in the future. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Reviewer Comments:
We really liked this unit and the space was perfect for the 5 of us. The unit was very clean. The only issue we had was the lack of certain items in the kitchen. Hard to make meals for 5 people with only one tiny frying pan, no pot holders and all the spices were expired. We made do and management was notified over the lack of cooking pans. The unit did not have extra towels for the pool, so make sure to pack those. Management was very responsive and the emails about our stay were very informative.

The place was clean and comfortable. It was just as described and we had everything we needed. There was a binder with clear directions for everything we had access to, plus some restaurant menus and magazines with info on the area. We were able to use the Owner's Club and Marina easily. One note is to bring a bag of ice if you use a lot. The unit only has ice cube trays. We would definitely stay there again!

Had a great holiday weekend with my inlaws, wife, and 2 young kids. Very clean, beautiful view out back. Towels for all of us, washer/dryer on site, and a ton of natural light. Kids and family had no issues using the amenities. Grill worked great and was clean. Only complaints would be that the townhouse is better suited for 4 people. It can sleep 6 but sofa bed is the typical springy, hard, inconsistent, and uncomfortable fold out bed and the kitchen table only has 4 chairs. We used 2 stools at counter for other two and it worked but not ideal for 6. Perfect for 4 people. Those are my only complaints and they are minor and didn't affect the weekend at all. Would definitely go again (but with only 4). Thank you to the owner for a great weekend. Looking forward to coming back.
