Tranquil setting near Galena
Great resort close to Galena and wineries. Friendly staff and good food at decent prices. Rooms were clean but not fancy but overall worth the price.

I loved the view of the river from the room and the area for hiking to the river. Coming in the fall for the colors was perfect. It’s a short drive to Galena. The restaurant on site was good and convenient.

Quick ski trip
The resort was great for skiing in and out. Overall the staff was friendly and helpful. The property does not have an elevator making it hard to bring luggage and ski equipment upstairs. The building overall and the room we stayed could use some updating.

Well maintained property for how old it is. The rooms were a little outdated but nonetheless very clean and well maintained. Staff was very friendly. I would highly recommend friends and family to stay here.

The property is older but that fits the Galena vibe. It's clean, staff is very nice and accomodating, and overall it's quiet and relaxing.
