Great location and beautiful house. Nice and clean, comfortable beds and great overall layout. The towels were clean but a bit old. Small leak in one of the windows, but to be fair a giant storm hit when we were at the home. Hosts were extremely easy to work with and checking in and out was fast and smooth. Would definitely recommend for a large group.

Family weekend

We enjoyed our weekend immensely. Overall, the interior was very clean and felt like a vacation retreat. We had a little with us, so we brought a fencing to put around the open stairway for safety. We would not recommend this home for young children unless you are prepared to bring child safety equipment and activities to occupy them. We thoroughly enjoyed the Owners Club, but think that if you rent a house that sleeps 12, you should have more than 6 guest passes. The arrea was very picturesque with hilly landscape and felt like we were farther away than Illinois! This area is a gem!

Forty was fun

We stayed with 4 adult couples for my wife’s 40th birthday. We had an awesome time and the house was perfect for our low key getaway. We loved the real wood fireplace, beautiful hot tub and well equipped house. We’ll definitely be back!

Wooded retreat

Eagle Ridge resort and its properties are beautiful, and we enjoyed our stay in this home. It is tucked into the trees which affords a lot of privacy. Every bedroom has its own bathroom which worked wonderfully for us with four families in the house. New carpet must have been installed throughout as it was very clean, but did make it hard to close the doors. We used the deck and the grill, and the kids enjoyed the hot tub! With twelve people, we had a lot of food with no where to put it. The pantry is locked and the cupboards are full of dishes which was really great for so many people but the counters were filled with boxes and bags for our stay. The screen to the porch door was ripped, but luckily there were no mosquitos so we could still use the porch. The property is somewhat dated and the yard overgrown with a fallen tree. These are aesthetics, our stay was very pleasant, the neighborhood was quiet and a walking path was close so we could walk to the resort, tennis courts, playground and pickleball courts.

Perfect for our family

This is the second time we have stayed in this home. It is the perfect size for our family and we love that every bedroom has its own bathroom. The owners club is a big perk and we enjoy the Galena downtown as well. It’s a great home away from home!

We stayed here for a family gathering and it was a wonderful vacation. We had plenty of bedrooms and the main level dining room, living room, porch combo were wonderful for hanging out as a family at times while also having different activities going on in smaller groups. Host was quick to respond to questions along the way.
