Stargazer's was perfect! Exactly as pictured and described. It's very cute how they lean into the star theme. We had a small issue with our access code not working upon arrival, but the property manager immediately resolved remotely & we were in the house in less than 5 minutes. The house is well stocked with essentials & some perks - toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, kcups for the coffee maker, towels, ample kitchen supplies. Beds were very comfortable and the room darkening curtains worked great. The only negative I would give this house is that the shower heads are quite low. Anyone over about 5' 8" will need to stoop in the shower.

The condo was clean and had everything we needed. The pictures were of the actual condo. It was exactly as described. There is a little age but it is kept very well. It was very quiet. It is the end unit of a 4plex. The GPS on the phone was great to find it in the dark because of all the twists and turns but after a few trips we were able to do it without the phone. There are several golf courses on the property so it is beautiful and everything is kept up nicely. I would stay here again without hesitation when in the area.

The personnel we dealt with at Vacations Homes of Galena were great. The home as advertised was clean, very well equipped, and prepared properly for our stay. When we had a glitch, we contacted them and they promptly addressed the matter.

This townhome was beautiful and very comfortable and I would return and highly recommend it. Location was 15 min from downtown Galena and the home is on the 10th hole of the south course at Eagle Ridge. My only comment of concern is regarding the property management. There were conflicting directions on departure instructions and we did have one broken item we wanted to report. I sent a text with no response, I included a note when we used the online check out system, again with no response and finally left a note on the counter. But this would not overshadow how much I enjoyed my stay at this home.
Manager's Response
We are so glad Kristie enjoyed our Stargazer's paradise! We are reaching out to her because we do not have any communication from her during the stay. We have email, an app and 2 phone numbers, if you don't hear from us something is definitely not going through. We pride ourselves on responsiveness and will definitely be finding out where the communication gap was.
We did get the note on the countertop and appreciate the feedback.

The location was beautiful and everything was cozy and ready for our stay. The space is fairly compact, but worked out very well for our girls weekend. We had a great time going into Galena for part of the day and being able to relax at the house with all the comforts of home. I would stay again!
Great Stay!

I loved Stargazer's Paradise! The location was not far outside Galena for convenience but was nice and quiet in the woods. The home was decorated beautifully. It was a little dated but has been tastefully updated so we were very comfortable. It was very clean. We spent most of our time at a family member's home nearby so did not use many of the amenities so can't comment on them. The downstairs bed was super comfy! I would absolutely stay there again.

Cady, we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Stargazer’s Paradise. Thank you so much for leaving the review and your wonderful comments. We really appreciate it! Looking forward to you staying with us again!
