Our condo was perfect for four adults. Having the bedroom suite upstairs and one downstairs was comfortable and private. Kitchen was fully stocked and the coffee available was excellent! We enjoyed the deck view of the golf course. Took walks in the evening along the golf path.. beautiful views! Melissa was an excellent host. She answered any concerns promptly. I highly recommend Eagle Ridge Golf Resort and this condo!!Randy&Becky D.

This is a perfect home away from home with all the essentials you might need for your stay! The host is amazing and is just a text away if you need anything. It is in a great location and was super clean and great for our party of 6 and fun to host a bachelorette trip in this place! The amenities that come with staying here like the pool, fitness, activities, and more are bound to have something for everyone! I would recommend this to everyone and will definitely be back when I visit Galena!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa

Host profile image
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.
