Summary: Lovely secluded location with a beautiful kitchen and plenty of bedrooms and baths. We came for a horseback riding weekend and this location couldn’t be beat. Horses stayed 5 minutes up the road and we got to share the lovely property with the cows and donkeys as well as lots of wildlife Just what you want for a relaxing weekend out of the city. Courteous caretaker that asked if it was okay to feed the cows at the regular time- our answer was “of course!” We were happy to all have our own bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms for cleaning up before dinner. Perfect mix of rustic with modern conveniences for our group. Close enough to Galena for meals and shopping but a nice private location away from the hubbub.
