The host was very accommodating to us and we appreciate his kindness very much. The house has lovely big rooms. We did feel that the heating system was not well-balanced (upstairs was very warm, main floor was cool, and lower level was unusable because of the cold. Various other things need attention: loose door knob, “singing” toilets, non-functioning RO system. But none of that kept us from having a great time.

Loved our stay!

Perfect for a bachelorette weekend! We were in awe when we pulled up to the house! Check in was easy and straight forward. We were provided with all information on the community amenities. It provided plenty of space for the 7 of us and our three cars, with no issue. There were some minor nature issues involving spiders and a bird, but overall we could not have been happier. Tony and his team are wonderful!We also highly recommend The Haunted Galena Tour Company! Bootlegger Ted is a terrifying treat
