This little cottage in the Galena territory was peaceful and had beautiful scenery. There were people staying at other cottages nearby and we didn't hear a peep from them. The cottage was very cozy, we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Andrea really thought of everything you would need to be comfortable. There is plenty of seating in the dining/living room. My favorite was this fabulous green couch, it was the perfect reading & relaxing spot. The king size bed is extremely comfortable & has an upscale hotel feel to it. The cottage had plenty of room for the 2 of us and you could comfortably fit a few more people. We wanted to be close to downtown Galena without all the noise, so this place was perfect as it is nestled in the woods, it's about less than 10 minutes from shopping, restaurants, antique stores, etc. Andrea was great at communicating throughout the whole process and was quick to respond to questions. We really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to return.

We had a lovely time during our stay! The tiny cottage was exactly what we were looking for. It was cozy and quaint which was perfect for a girl's trip away. We particularly enjoyed how nicely decorated the house was which gave it such a homey feel to it. We appreciated the proximity to town where we felt close enough, yet, we felt peacefully remote. This place really felt like home away from home! and as a bonus, the hosts did a fantastic job providing all the details you needed for your stay, and it we felt right at home. We highly recommend staying here, as it was perfect for us and we would not hesitate to stay here again!

Adorable house, very clean, very cozy, felt like home. Had all that was needed as if we lived there. Andrea was very informative and responsive to our messages. All was as described in the listing, so we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend this beautiful place to stay!!

This was our second time staying at this Airbnb, and we absolutely love it. It’s the perfect little getaway spot for a girls trip! Their kitchen is fully stocked with amenities; they had literally everything we could possibly need. We spent a lot of our trip just enjoying the Airbnb, lounging around: movies on the couch, reading on the cozy little patio, and chatting it up on the chaise. We also thoroughly enjoyed going for long walks on the beautiful trails around the area! Thanks for hosting us!!

This tiny home was perfect for a weekend getaway to celebrate my mom's birthday. It was very cute, clean, and cozy. There are neighboring homes around it but when you're inside it feels very private and peaceful. The hosts were very communicative and responsive when we had questions. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay near downtown Galena but wanting something more private/quite than a busy hotel or place on main street. We loved our stay!

Absolutely wonderful! Andrea made sure with us that we knew what we were doing, coming as a group of 6 into a tiny house, and I deeply appreciate that she did; but it was way enough room for us in the end, we felt very comfortable. Everything was so nice, and we felt very well taken care of. The deck’s view to the woods was very peaceful, we felt isolated and calm. The proximity to downtown Galena was a really nice surprise, I didn’t realize quite how close we were from just the map. I absolutely would recommend Andrea’s tiny house to anyone, and we will certainly try to go back to it when we’re in the area.

Stayed for my birthday short getaway trip, it was worth it. Tiny home is so cozy and clean, complete with what i needed, grill, cooking utensils, dinnerware. I love that the water pressure is strong, the natural light from the sun roof is awesome, it is pet friendly, safe neighborhood and is indeed a 5 star place to stay.

Our stay was perfect. Very responsive to questions we had. The home is located in a peaceful area and a nice place to relax. The location is easy access to many activities in the area in just a short scenic drive. Home was just as the pictured, very comfortable and everything you will need for your stay. We had a nice extended girls weekend. Spent time on the deck by the gas fireplace, played games and cooked dinner. Even did some of the trails near the property. Spent time shopping in Galena and exploring other areas such as Mississippi Palisades and Council Hill. Great weekend would love to stay here again.

Cute cozy home. Set up nicely. Very clean. Not far from everything but you also get to enjoy quietness which is great when you are use to noise from the city. The owners were very friendly, very fast to respond. Would definitely stay again.
