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. Six proximity cards are available for your use in accessing the homeowners club and will be at the home when you arrive. Guests of this home enjoy all of the homeowners amenities in The Galena Territory including the two pools, fitness center, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, pickle ball and tennis. Lake Galena is about ten minutes away and can be accessed by calling the marina to reserve a pontoon boat or kayak.

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.
