Easy check-in and check out. Great communication with management. Did not need shampoo and conditioner as stated in check-in instructions. Comfortable seating areas. Loved the screened in porch for the warmer evenings of our stay and loved the hot tub!

Location was great for short trips into Galena. Love the hot tub, fireplace and the bedroom and bathroom setups. Ability to use amenities such as the game room, trails and pool made it even better.

House was a great size for the six of us with a beautiful property and back yard. The fire was so nice to have and the hot tub was used almost every minute we were in the home. We loved that every couple had their own kind bed and private bathroom. Every single one of us noted how comfortable the bed is! Which isn’t always the case when traveling. Very close to winery and town. Would come back

The Driftless Haus was perfect for a girls' weekend getaway. We relaxed in the hot tub, accessed the club to swim, and were in close proximity to town for shopping and drinks. It was convenient having a full bath adjacent to each bedroom, well accommodating 7 adults. Peaceful neighborhood and a well-stocked kitchen. The house was comfortable. The living room.seating area was somewhat small for 7 adults to sit and socialize, but not a big deal. We enjoyed our stay!

Quick spring getaway

Typically we are underwhelmed when we rent a house but this place exceeded expectations. I would say they should update the photo of the hot tub because the setting and tub itself is perfect. Wish we were here when it was a little warmer to make better use of the massive wrap around deck.
