House was perfect for five couples. Bedrooms each have their own baths. Kitchen and living area was spacious. Only downside was proximity to neighbors.

Nice Location and Stay
We had a very nice stay. Beds were very comfortable. Had a hot tub concern and it was fixed within 24 hours. It was very hot the week we were there and the air conditioning struggled to keep the main floor comfortable by late afternoon. The floors in the kitchen/dining area were not the cleanest when we arrived, but the rest of the home was clean. The kitchen was very well equipped with items for cooking. Overall a nice place and great location!

Perfect size for Girls Weekend
The house was perfect size for 9 adult females in their mid thirties trying to escape their children and work life :) The full bathroom in each bedroom is WONDERFUL! So much space in kitchen and living room to relax and catch up. Short drive to downtown Galena. Hot tub was a nice bonus. Kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook. We cooked a fully loaded breakfast one morning. If there was one thing I wish was better - the WiFi is not the most reliable, so make sure you have a backup if you have work to do. We did NOT make the trip to be on our phones all day so it was not a huge deal! We will definitely look into again for our next trip to Galena!

Wonderful stay in Galena.
The house was great for our group of nine adults. Well-equipped, beautiful high ceilings, plenty of space for all of us, and the ability to have everyone eat together at the large dining table was fantastic. Host was great to work with and if we're ever back in Galena we'd definitely stay here again. Thanks for the great Thanksgiving memories!

Well maintained and comfortable. It couldn't have been nicer to stay there.
Exceptionally well maintained, quiet and comfortable for our group of seniors. We had a bit of trouble finding our way around Galena Territories, but that was because it was huge. We wish we has more time to stay and enjoy all the amenities, but maybe next time. We certainly would stay here again. It was just lovely.

Christmas Holiday
Our family decided to go away for our Christmas celebration this year. Unfortunately due to Illness, one family was unable to attend. While it wasn’t the celebration we had hoped for, those of us who were able to attend had a wonderful time! We even had snow on the day we were having our Christmas celebration —- A White Christmas… which didn’t happen for those celebrating on December 24/25th this year! We would definitely go back to celebrate Christmas again!

This house was beautiful and well supplied. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone with a large family that likes a big open family area to visit. Galena is a beautiful little town and lots to do in the downtown area. I will definitely be back myself. Thanks again for the hospitality

It was perfect for our get together
We are a group of friends - going back 35 years. The VRBO met our needs 100%. Having 5 bedrooms - each with their own bathroom was great for the 5 couples. We ate all of our meals here. The kitchen was well-stocked with the necessary dishes, etc for this. We spent most of our time in the living area visiting and laughing. Due to the fact that it was 90+ and very humid out, we didn't get to use the hot tub. This VRBO is located in a beautiful setting in a quiet neighborhood. I would recommend it to anyone!

Another great stay @ Canterbury Galena!
This is the 2nd time our family has enjoyed this property. Each bedroom has an ensuite bath, which everyone loves! They have now added extra bedding so that was nice for the blow up air mattresses we had for a few kiddos. The kitchen is well stocked and the living areas are so very comfortable, along with screened in porches & hot tubs. Just overall a great property.

We spent 2 nights at this house for an end of summer getaway and we would definitely recommend doing the same. The house is spacious, clean, and has several great areas for spending time together whether it's for eating, playing games, or just catching up with friends. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you might need, the screened-in porch was great for relaxing, and the house's location is close to both the pool and the garbage facility. Another great stay at another beautiful home in Galena!

Really nice property
We met our children and grandchildren for a week and stayed in this home. The common areas are huge with plenty of room for children to play and adults to gather. Unlike some properties, the dining room table actually had room for 12 people! It was fantastic! The porch also had a large table and we enjoyed eating there as well as playing games in the evening. The bedrooms are great and the fact that each bedroom has an attached bathroom is icing on the cake. Being able to use the pool and other amenities was awesome. The outdoor pool is perfect for kids of all ages. Communication with the management was outstanding. Always a quick response. We would definitely reserve this home again if we come back to Galena.

6 Canterbury Lane
This house is great for a large group. Our group had not seen each other in a while due to COVID and the main floor that was open, kitchen that was full stocked and bathroom attached to each bathroom was a total plus. Owner was very helpful with suggestions about Galena area. However, I would recommend the owner reconsidering at least during off-season an earlier check-in and later check-out. Maybe 3:00 pm and 11:00 am at no extra cost. I understand if another group was coming in but if not the newly suggested times are similar to a hotel’s policy. Loading up garbage was at 30 minutes taken away from our trip. Lastly, I would suggest stronger garbage bags and more toilet paper to be offered. We had to bring/buy more. Other then this, I strongly recommend renting this home.

This house was perfect for our family
We loved the house. There was lots of room for us to spread out on the main floor. We did use the screened porch for most meals and it was so nice to have that option. But the large table indoors was also great. Everyone loved the en suite bathrooms with every bedroom. Lots of cooking supplies and soap, etc. The location was good - easy to get around. More than enough parking space. Also enjoyed the wild turkeys parading by occasionally! We recommend this property.
