Private Retreat, Hot Tub, Games, Pool Access

It was clean! Spacious ! They had all the cooking supplies, seasonings, coffee and flavored creamer! Wonderful children’s games! So much nature! We all had a peaceful rejuvenating trip! And Britney sent a welcome email that had everything you need to know, she was so helpful!Thankyou

Ravine Lodge is an absolute must. Booking to departure was seamless with clear communication. Ravine is super clean and has everything needed and more as far as towels, toiletries, seating, and kitchen supplies!We love all the wildlife we saw from the back deck. Starlings, Orioles, mama deer and baby, bunnies, turkeys, etc.The patio is great for enjoying brilliant sunsets and the screened in porch allowed us to complete paint-by-numbers without insect interference while keeping dry from the rain. All my girlfriends commented how comfy the beds are, sleeping like champions. Also, preserving the integrity of the sky - no outside lights- was awesome! We were able to see so many stars and constellations. The space is large and with three bathrooms, we got ready in a jiffy and made the stunning trek to downtown Galena. The hot tub is well-maintained and a delight to sit in with friends, reminiscing and enjoying the calm and quiet was a treat!!!!The pool was beautiful. We were lucky enough to have this all to ourselves. What fun!I'm love Ravine Lodge and cannot wait to return! Brittany allowed us a 1230 check-out as this time worked for housekeeping. This allowed extra time to enjoy the still and continue our art project. I never expect a late check-out as I know there is a quick turnaround time for other guests' arrival. We are grateful for the extension!The Ravine is the cat's meow! We heard plenty of catbirds too!!

The check in process was incredibly easy and the host was very responsive. We were a bit disappointed by the overall condition of the house, the back deck, and screened in porch as the screens were torn in many areas and the door from the porch to the deck was broke with huge holes so we couldn't even enjoy sitting outside without the annoyance of a lot bugs. The area was quiet and we never used the community amenities as there were a few miles away, which would have been nice to know at the time of booking. Also, all 3 bedrooms were in the basement and the heating/cooling system did not seem very efficient or regulated as it was about 60 degrees down there while it was 70 degrees on the main floor. Overall 3/5.

Nice and quiet. While we were there during the week, it was perfect. Probably the best thing was the comfortable furniture and bedding, I can’t tell you how many places we’ve stayed at with no comfortable place to sit.Ample kitchen supplies for cooking anything you enjoy. Something to note is that all bedrooms are on the lower level (Stairs). Very good accommodation for the price.

Home was gorgeous and had everything we needed! Kitchen had everything for cooking/baking supplies, apart from dessert pans. Hot tub was very luxurious and was enjoyed every night. 10/10 recommended!
