The kitchen is also very large and made it easy to prepare meals and we could fit around the large kitchen table. We had a fun night playing pool and ping pong in the basement and this would be a great hang out spot for kids. There are gorgeous views of the frozen lake, snow and trees in winter and am sure it would be equally beautiful in the summer.

We had 9 people ranging from 1 to 62 and a dog. Except for clothes you almost dont need to bring anything. Dan, the owner has thought of everything possible. Huge home with so much to do. Pool table, ping pong, play staion are just a few of the things everyone enjoyed. Beautiful veiw of lake Galena. I could go on and on but I think you all understand this is the only place I would stay in Galena. One last note, Dan is very easy to reach if you need anything.

The house itself overlooks Lake Galena. The North Cove bank of the lake is a 2-minute drive away and offers a great fishing spot. The home was clean and luxuriously furnished. We fell in love with the furniture and decor. Everything was clean - zero dust, which was a huge plus for our family as some of us have allergies. The kitchen was put to great use. Lovely crockery and cutlery. Enough for us all. And Dan just knows how to walk the fine line between assisting us and letting us be. He was on hand when we had questions and timely in his responses. Super friendly. Only good things to say. We hope to return to this lovely home some time in the future. ##### Javeed C.

Dan was a terrific host and was very easy to communicate with. The house was spacious and very comfortable for our family. The first floor has a open kitchen / dining area / and living space which makes it easy to be all together. At the same time there is a living space upstairs and downstairs if part of the group needs to watch something else or just chill out. The biggest hit with our crew was the Owners Club swimming pools ..... we were at mostly the kiddie pool which was perfect. Galena was fun to go check out and we had dinner our last night in one of the many restaurants. We tackled the General Golf Course at Eagle Ridge which also had terrific scenic landscapes. Overall exceeded our expectations. ##### Dan B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mohan Narendranath A.

Home was cozy, huge, and immaculate! Pool and pong tables kept everyone having fun. Multiple decks with great views let us all take a moment and all the fireplaces kept everyone warm and in the spirit. Dan was responsive right away when looking for a screwdriver to install batteries for a game of laser tag (highly recommend with this layout). We've stayed all over the territory and this is hands down A++! ##### Philip Z.
