Overall
The location was Great, GPS off a lil bit. There was a messy tree that our shoes dragged little buds in all the time. The key box was a little hard to open. The pool was not used because we couldn't figure out what or where to go. There are a lot of stairs. It is on three different floors. Missing was a home feeling. Little touches that make it feel personal. The beds were comfortable.

Fun couples stay
This a charming renovated coach house. Small kitchen but very cute. Very clean property. 4 counter seats and 2 chairs in front of a tv and warm electric fireplace. Second level has another bedroom/bath with a whirlpool tub, washer/dryer, leather couch and chair in front of a tv. Third level has a king bed and small bath with a shower. We had 2 couples there comfortably. You could put a 5th person on the couch. 6 block walk to downtown galena. I highly recommend Gobbies for Chicago style pizza at very reasonable prices. Free salads and bread bites too!! Timmermans supper club was a fun night too. 15 mile drive to that. Overall, a wonderful place to stay.

Great little place.
Great place for 4 adults. Be ready to do a lot of stairs if you’re in the upstairs bedroom. 🙂

Outstanding property
The Coachouse didn't disappoint! The space was immaculately clean and very nicely appointed. You can tell the property owners care about the quality of your stay! Comfy beds, plenty of towels, and linens. The second-floor family room is cozy. We have already recommended the property to friends looking to visit Galena. It's absolutely within walking distance of the Main Street shopping & restaurant district.

Great stay!
Adorable house in perfect location! Beds were comfy, good quality linens all around, and I can’t say a single negative about this place. Kitchen would be tight if we cooked, luckily we did not. Recommend!
