Expectations were exceeded

We were in Galena for an overnight wedding and the place was absolutely fantastic. The location was only five minutes from the main Eagle Ridge facility. The home was very clean and the photos did not do it justice. The process for gathering information for checking in was extremely easy and the owner was super responsive. I would certainly stay here again.

Clean, comfortable, cute

Great place for 2 families with 4 adults and 4 older kids/teens. The house was so clean, beautifully decorated, and well-stocked for all you need. Lots of helpful info provided by owner. Nice to have the kitchen/living room upstairs and the den/entertainment space downstairs where the kids could hang out. We visited in the winter for skiing but I would love to return in summer/fall to use multiple outdoor decks! We've stayed in many Galena Territory homes and this was one of the best in terms fo space, layout, and cleanliness.
