About this property
5 bedroom 3 level home that is great for groups of all kinds friends and family
Located just off the south course in the southwest corner of The Galena Territory, this will be a home your group will return to time and time again. Glen Creek is a beautiful and spacious 3 level home with spectacular views from both the upper and lower living rooms. A home designed to gather and have privacy to find some quiet time. With five bedrooms and five bathrooms families can spread out.
Walk right in and get settled in this home, the main level has a spacious two step sunken living room with floor to ceiling windows to gather and enjoy the full view. There is a wood burning fireplace and TV in this main level living room. Walk right into the well-equipped kitchen and dining area to prepare special family meals in the stunning open kitchen with its large island, beautiful cabinetry and dining table. The 3 seasons room located behind the dining area is a favorite spot for morning coffee, reading a book and enjoying the beautiful fresh air of the country without bugs. On the other side of the three seasons room is an outside deck which holds the gas grill for which we always supply a backup tank.
In the opposite end of the kitchen on the main floor is a full bathroom with a shower stall, it is in the hallway near the laundry area. Past those is a bedroom (king bed) with an attached full bath that has a soaking tub as well as a shower stall. There is a private deck in this room that also has a lovely view of the backyard and golf course.
Upstairs is a large bedroom with a king-size bed and private bath with a walk-in shower. This space can be great for families as it has plenty of playroom for the kids, including a futon in the sitting area for them to nap on when they wear themselves out.
The lower-level walkout has its own living room with a second wood burning fireplace, flat screen TV, beautiful shuffleboard game table, wet bar and a full size sleeper sofa. The brand new hot tub is located outside on the patio off this area, for your enjoyment of the daytime and nighttime views with a beverage while relaxing and breathing in the clean air and dark skis.
On the south end of the living room is a full bath with a tub/shower combo and two bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and one with a king size bed.
At the north end of the gathering room is another bedroom with a king size bed and a bathroom with a walk in shower.
This home is located about seven minutes from The Galena Territory homeowners club and the Inn.

Picture this: you’re perched on a verdant golf course in Galena, Illinois, where the evening strolls are sprinkled with fairway charm. This home is a beautiful architectural adventure—like a storybook cottage got a modern twist. Inside, space unfolds like a well-written novel—every chapter fully equipped, especially the kitchen, which is ready for your culinary tales. Ten of us fit comfortably, like puzzle pieces in a perfect vacation picture. The owner? A responsive hero who even reunited us with a forgotten treasure we incidentally left behind. Priced right, and every soul left happy—this place is a hole-in-one stay.
The property was exactly as listed. A wonderful place for a family or group of friends to spend a weekend in Galena. Spacious living space for your group to spend time over looking a beautiful golf course. The property had all of the necessary amenities.
We love this house so much. It’s perfect for our large group. Layout of house works wonderfully! Kitchen is large and spacious. Beds are comfortable and rooms accommodating. Highly recommend!
I stayed here with 6 of my dear friends. We are mostly content to hang out, chat, read and do indoors activities, but it was also a brief drive to downtown Galena. The house is spacious and well appointed. The beds were comfy, and there were plenty of towels and amenities. I would definitely return here.
This house was they perfect place for our girls trip! Has everything you are looking for and more! Fit our group perfectly! We appreciated the extra touches from the hosts that you don’t get with all houses. Highly recommend! We will be back!
My friend group, called the “Big Chill” because we’ve known each other for 50 years and meet once a year to catch up. We loved the spacious house especially the screened in porch sitting above the golf course with a view of the sunset. Every sunset was special to us.
This was the perfect home for our family Christmas. The number of bedrooms, bathrooms and size of the kitchen made this a perfect home for us. We booked this place because of the size of the kitchen table holding our 10 people - and it was not disappointing! The house is even bigger than pictures showed and we are hoping to come back again next year. The amenities were great and everything was as stated or better. Thank you for allowing us to make great memories in this beautiful home!
10 adults stayed at this property for a family weekend wedding. Property worked well for us… large driveway for five vehicles, 3 seasons room was phenomenal, shuffleboard table, space to hang out plus private space as well. Lovely view of golf course. Only downside is when you leave, you have to collect your trash and take it off site to a dump or pay a penalty.
Property was beautiful, with plenty of room. All the amenities we needed. Fast response on the one question we had. If you have lots of people, extra outdoor chairs might be needed. Also, unless you have a tush of steel, pack nice toilet paper. House was stocked with one-ply Scott, described best by one our teens as John Wayne toilet paper!
We spent two wonderful nights at this property to celebrate a family Christmas and it couldn't have worked out better. -Five siblings, we each had our own bedroom with comfortable beds and immaculate bathrooms. We cooked meals together in the well-stocked kitchen and played games on the huge dining room table. We lit a fire in the fireplace and shared coffee time around the fire. There was not a moment when we felt uncomfortable or felt like we were missing something we would have enjoyed in any of our own homes. The home was well-appointed, clean and comfortable and checking in and out was a breeze thanks to easy to follow instructions from the host. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone. We would definitely stay here again.
The upper level is huge and open, perfect for the 4 grandchildren to sleep and play. We had the main level master bedroom with great views of the South golf course’s 5th & 6th holes. 3 bedrooms on lower level worked out great for our 3 children and spouses. Lower level opened to the patio and hot tub.
Screen room off of kitchen has great view of the par-3 17th hole.
Kevin was very attentive to a couple of issues we had at the place and took care of the them quickly.
Everyone enjoyed the Territory Owners Club’s pools, workout area, and gameroom.
Checkout the Goat Trek at Hoof It Galena and the Alpine Slide at Chestnut Mountain Resort. Chestnut has a nice restaurant too with great views of the Mississippi River.
Galena is such a great place to visit. This is my 4th vrbo rental in the Territory, and the location is lovely. We enjoyed the screened in porch, the beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was updated and well equipped.
The front door has a security code, so I am not sure why we were instructed to use a key. The deadbolt on the front door was difficult to secure from inside the home AND using the key on the exterior. We got it done, but we had to use muscle! We were required to take the garbage and recycling to the dump at the end of our stay. It was a 12 minute drive from the house, and thankfully there were people there to help us sort which dumpster to use for trash, which for recycling. This requirement was not in the description of the property, I learned of it when I was given instructions on checking in to the property. The 3 other Galena Territories properties that I have rented did not have this requirement, so it was surprising. Garbage disposal should be included in the rental for a short term stay. The home was clean and very comfortable.
Property was as described. Our group of 11 had plenty of space. The views and amenities were spectacular. Kitchen was well stocked and it was great that we could all eat together at the large dining table. My favorite space was the all season room. It had a nice breeze and great views of the golf course. Overall we had a great stay and had everything we needed!
Very nice house, well equipped and clean. Everything worked very well for our extended family Christmas visit. The host communicated well. We would gladly stay again.
