This was our first time staying in the Galena Territory and it was perfect. The Villa is well appointed in every way, very clean and welcoming decor. The kitchen is well stocked and plenty of plush towels in the bathrooms. Beds are very comfortable. The property provided everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Our hosts Nathan and Dana were excellent communicators from booking to checking out. We enjoyed exploring the area within the Galena Territory and surrounding communities. We look forward to our next stay!!

This villa is amazing! Super clean, love the layout, and so peaceful. My favorite area was the back deck as it had a high top table/chair set and beautiful trees and some wildlife. I also liked the proximity to Galena…a fun town to explore. Hosts are quick to respond and I am so thankful they allow dogs! I will be returning but only when this unit is available…wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else!

This condo is very nice with great natural light. Area was very quiet and within walking distance to pool. It was also down the street from Stone Drift Spa and the golf course which was great. The home was very neat and clean and check in process was easy. The owners have great communication and got back to us quickly and made our booking very easy. Will definitely stay here again. Great place!

Weekend in Galena

This is the second time for my family and I to stay at this property. We really enjoy the area and the location of this property. The property is very well-maintained and was very clean. We enjoyed access to the pool, which is just a short walk. We also visited a nearby spa, which was just a few minutes drive. Overall we had a great weekend and hope to stay there again.

Cozy Comfortable Getaway in Galena

My family and I had a wonderful stay here. The Villa is well appointed, clean, and spacious. A pool steps away, yet quiet and private as well. The owners were communicative and informative, making our planning for our stay and our time during go smoothly. Our dogs felt welcome as well with dog toys and bed available. Would happily stay here again!

Cozy Galena Townhouse

Loved the location and access to the Territory Owners Club Amenities. Outdoor pool just steps away from house.This location is not for people whom have trouble using stairs as there are stairs to get to the front door and your car.( maybe 20 steps)This place could use a few extra bath towels. Otherwise it was a great stay.
