Valleywood Villa | Galena Territory | 5 Ensuite Bedrooms · Hot Tub

Five private ensuite bathrooms, a hot tub that's just as good in the snow as it is in July, and two wood-burning fireplaces to come home to — Valleywood Villa is the house groups keep coming back to, whatever the season.

Valleywood Villa is a 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath, sleeps-12 retreat in The Galena Territory, about 10-12 minutes from downtown Galena. It's become the go-to pick for family reunions, milestone celebrations, girls' trips, and holiday gatherings — the ensuite layout is the single most-mentioned thing in our reviews, because nobody's waiting in line in the morning.
