Thank you for staying with me! I’m glad you had a great experience and truly appreciate the recommendation.
The stay was great. The home was beautifully decorated and overlooked the 10th fairway. It was a five minute walk from the unit to the clubhouse. The host was just super helpful. We had a slight schedule hiccup and the host worked with us to save our trip. Really liked the personal touches the host extended to make sure it was eady in, wonderful tome there and simple exit. If you are thinki g of visitng the Galena Territories for golf, skiing or spending time in Galena i highly recommend staying here. The unit works great for two or four people.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I’m delighted you enjoyed the condo and the little details that make it feel special. It means a lot to hear you’d recommend us, and I'd love to host you again in Galena!
I thoroughly enjoyed my three-night stay at this property. It was very inviting when I first opened the door, very bright, clean and welcoming. Everything was provided that a person could think of for kitchen meal preparation and bathroom use. The bed was very comfortable as well as the furniture in the living area. The sliding door opens to a comfortable patio that is perfect for morning coffee, reading, watching golfers pass by or having an evening glass of wine or cocktail. It's so peaceful and relaxing and there is an abundance of trails perfect for hiking. There is free access to the Owner's Club which has a great fitness facility and pools. With two bedrooms (both with king beds and bathrooms), it's perfect for 4-6 people (sofa bed pull-out in the living area). I felt guilty that it was just me staying there but I needed to get away from everything and it provided me a perfect place to do so. The next time I plan to bring/treat my wife to a stay at Melissa's place. Melissa is a great host, stays in contact to make sure everything is good and is virtually available instantly if you have any questions.

Melissa's place was perfect for our girls' weekend. Super clean, well-stocked kitchen, and even a thoughtful note & snacks upon arrival. It's in a great golf community with wonderful amenities. Would definitely stay here again!
Very nice condo with beautiful views of the golf course! We enjoyed our stay and the owner is so nice and easy to communicate with. Hope to return one day.
This was our first Vrbo and it was fantastic! There was amazing customer service! We felt very taken care of and Melissa answered all of our many questions. We will definitely be back. Thank you and God bless you!!!

About the host
Hosted by Melissa
Hi, I'm Melissa, and I'm thrilled to be your host! My love for travel has taken me to incredible places, and over the years I've stayed in countless vacation rentals - each one offering a unique experience, from quirky hideaways to chic retreats. Those stays inspired me to create a space where guests can feel just as at home and excited about their surroundings as I have.
Hosting isn't just about providing a place to stay, it's about crafting a memorable experience. Whether you're here for relaxation, adventure, or a little of both, I want your time at my home to be effortless and enjoyable. I've thoughtfully designed this space with comfort and convenience in mind, and I hope it becomes a special part of your journey.
If you need anything during your stay, don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
I chose to host in Galena because It's one of those rare places that feels like a step back in time while still offering something new to discover at every visit. The charming downtown, with its historic 19th-century architecture, boutique shops, and incredible dining always makes for a perfect day of exploring. Whether it's strolling along Main Street, sampling local wines, or learning about the town's rich history, Galena never loses its magic.
But what I love most is the Galena Territory - a peaceful retreat surrounded by rolling hills, wooded trails, and stunning golf course views. The natural beauty here is unbeatable whether I'm enjoying a morning coffee on the deck, hiking the scenic trails, or simply unwinding in the fresh country air. The area offers the perfect blend or relaxation and entertainment, making it a special getaway no matter the season.
