As you enter downtown Galena, you find a mining boomtown perfectly untouched by age since its mid-nineteenth century heyday. Old homes and buildings have been meticulously preserved, and much of Galena today is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Tourism is now the city's main attraction, with specialty shops, boutiques, galleries and restaurants appealing to the more than a million visitors annually. And nearby, you'll find ample outdoor activities at Apple River Canyon State Park, four challenging world-class golf courses, equestrian trails and even some downhill ski runs.



WorldMark Galena is situated near Eagle Ridge Resort's General, the most challenging of the four world-class Galena territory golf courses. Each unit includes a fireplace, cable TV, dining area and a deck. One- and two-bedroom units include fully equipped kitchens. The resort features a glassed-in indoor pool, hot tub and game room.

Couples Getaway
We genuinely enjoyed our stay here at this property the Host was overall informative and friendly! We stayed in a studio it was perfect for a couple nice amenities and the option to cook breakfast on the stove top was nice! It was cozy intimate nice size Bathroom even though we didn’t use the jacuzzi unfortunately! Unless we are wrong the WiFi is extra money we usually are not focused on our phones however we had to purchase because our service was bad and we had our little guy being babysat back home. Nevertheless this property is very nice many amenities the place offers but we didn’t take advantage of them all that obviously was our choice!

Great place to stay right outside downtown Galena I the Galena Territory. Unfortunately the pool was being fixed during our stay but the hot tub was great! We would definitely stay here again!

Getaway in Galena
This place, while older, is an affordable, quiet place to escape the tourist-y-ness of downtown Galena. The space is perfect for 2. The whirlpool tub in the big bathroom is a godsend for tired bodies after walking or golfing all day. The stovetop, while small, was perfect for fixing breakfasts each day. Lots of activities nearby and a superquick jaunt down Hwy. 20 to get back into town if you're so inclined. Really liked this place. We'll be back!
