Bathrooms: we provide luxury, hotel quality plush towels from Standard Textile (e.g., bath towel, hand towel, wash cloth, makeup towel) and premium, sustainable personal care products from Public Goods (e.g., shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, hand soap). Separate pool towels are also provided.

Porch: comfortable outdoor sectional and dining table plus a gas grill for your use. Enjoy lounging outside under the umbrella, surrounded by lush green and beautiful bird chirping. One of our favorite activities is star gazing and firefly watching on a hot summer night.
Parking: each reservation comes with 2 parking spots right in front of the unit.
**For your and our safety, the home is equipped with a security camera near the entrance door facing the parking lot. In addition, there is a smart noiseware in the living room that detects alarm sound, humidity, and noise level (no recording of any sort).
**Several of our windows don't have operating cranks and cannot be opened; we are awaiting new cranks to arrive.

About the host
Hosted by Jared

Hi there, my name is Jared. I purchased this townhome as a place to escape to from the busy city life. Whenever I visit the Galena area, it always felt like a perfect escape, with easy access to many outdoor activities and trails, far away from big city crowd/noises, but still very close to the town of Galena (restaurants, breweries, grocery stores, shopping) and countless tourist attractions in the area (golf, ski, wineries, water activities, etc.). I want to share my home with others, so more people can enjoy what this area has to offer. I strive to provide the best guest experience possible and always welcome your suggestions/feedback. :-)
