Why our guests

LOVE STAYING HERE

Would recommend! Charming place in Galena in walking distance of town and near a nice trail. House was very cute! Clean and had a great outdoor area. Loved the firepit. Felt private as it was in a slope. Nice relaxing weekend getaway. If looking to visit area, consider booking!

The Golf View was the perfect getaway spot for our trip to Galena for wedding festivities. We enjoyed a nice movie night on the pull out couch and soaked in the beautiful golf course views in the morning. Phil was so responsive and easy to work with.

The entire stay felt very organized, from Phil's proactive messages to the virtual guidebook that came with the house. The location was exceptional and the house felt even cozier than the pictures suggested.

The Pink Lady is a lovely place to stay. The owner has done a fantastic job remodeling the cottage's interior, while keeping a few things for nostalgia, like the original door knobs. Lots and lots of natural light which I just love. Everything was as pictured and instructions were clear. The wooded yard and screened-in gazebo are a nice atmosphere to relax in. The beach for the neighborhood was a quick walk down the street, and he mentions the details about it having many steps - 91 to be exact. The two other beach options I found close by also have many steps to get down to the beach, but that is typical for smaller beaches on Michigan bluffs. I found this home very clean which is important to me. Overall, it's a keeper for me. So the best question you can ask me is "Would I stay there again?" and that's a big YES. Thank you Phil for taking over this property and breathing new life into the cottage.

Phil’s place exceeded my already high expectations. First, the location is just perfect, tucked away at the end of the street and surrounded by beautiful greenery. The short walking trails that lead to some beautiful lookouts are practically right outside the door. The house was so fun, fresh, and stylish! The group of girls I was hosting were beyond giddy with it all, especially how every room had an en suite bathroom. Phil was the best host. He was timely and clear in his responses, and there was no confusion with checking in or out. My group and I made memories that will last a lifetime. Thanks to Phil for letting us stay at the best Airbnb in Galena!
