There are very few 6 bedroom 6.5 bathroom affordable homes in the Galena Territory and Powderhorn is a rare find.

The exterior features a wrap around porch, lower level patio, upper level deck and the outdoor hot tub is nicely tucked away in the back of the house and protected by a retaining wall and is available year round. The portable metal fire pit is also available for your use and we provide the firewood.

The accomodations were great...having the 6 bedrooms baths were perfect for our group. We do have a concern that no shower bars in any of the bathrooms...one of our group slipped in the tub, fell out and had significant bruising. I had mentioned to Linda when I arrived and she said privately owned and was owners decision to not have them. Our friend stepped INTO tub and slipped on the soapy "tub decals". Just a thought that owners might like to look into this for future. Otherwise, everything perfect for us.

It was overall a good experience. The house was very clean. A little dark though. Some of the kitchen's lights didn't work. The pillows could be updated, and some of the blankets. Otherwise, the location was great! We would definitely stay again.

The house while very spacious and open, needs a thorough cleaning and paint job. For a six bedroom house there were not enough wash cloths. I feel we pay a cleaning fee for a reason and for the overall price I would expect cleanliness. Dead bugs in the kitchen lights and windowsills.
I must say Linda was very responsive and helpful.

What a beautiful home! We gathered with 3 other families and there was plenty of room for our kids to run around and for the adults to all have our own space. The property was gorgeous (I’m sure it’s really pretty in the fall!) and the amenities (hot tub, owners club access) were perfect for our group. My only complaint was that the cleaning could have been done a little better. For the nightly price we paid, I expected to not find dead bugs (ladybugs) throughout the house on the kitchen floor, on my bed pillow, and in the living room. I know you can’t help where they come from with the wooded location of the home but it seemed like it could have been taken care of in an easy sweep/vacuum. Overall we were thrilled with our stay and will absolutely be returning!

The Powderhorn Gap rental was just as it was described and shown in the VRBO listing. I was blown away by the bathroom in every room, this was especially perfect for the family's with small children! The kitchen was spacious, there was huge table for meals to fit all of us in a dining area and a good size table off the kitchen for gathering and game playing. The pool table, hot tub, game table and projector in the basement were nice additions and enjoyed by all (we did not use the weight room, but it looked well-kept and in good condition)! The only downside was the projector/dish in the basement was manual select channel (no channel guide available), otherwise it was a great space for kids and adults. The community pool and recreational center was awesome (not too far away) - a perfect way for the kids to burn off some energy! Overall, a 5-star review and I would highly recommend.

- Clean premises
- Everything was in working order
- We will definitely consider this property again
- Those driving to this location in the dark, make sure to drive carefully as the last 5 miles into the property is a narrow, winding road
- Minor suggestions: keep body wash in the bathrooms and more coffee cups in the kithen

This is our second year at Powderhorn Gap. We met for a girl's weekend traveling from Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin. The home is spacious and plenty of room for the eleven of us. The only complaint we had were the lady bugs in the kitchen area. I think that is just about the weather getting cold and they are coming inside to get warm. The home was clean, and the beds were comfortable,

We stayed over the Fourth of July weekend - two families in the house and one that came for just the day to see everyone. Plenty of space and everything was in good condition/clean. Kids loved the pool table, hot tub, and movie room. It was too hot to play outside but the yard has plenty of space for games. Kids used the community pool as well. The kitchen was well stocked - we ate all of our meals at the house. Close enough to Galena to go in easily but far enough out to just relax.

We were a group of 11 friends who travel yearly for a long weekend. The house accommodated all of the couples very well with private bathrooms for each bedroom. There was plenty of space to spread out and all of the amenities we needed. The home was very clean and the property was beautiful! Our group especially enjoyed the space under the deck when we had a lot of rain in the evenings. We also appreciated all of the dining space.

We had a great time at Powderhorn Gap #3! The house was clean, spacious, and lovely. It was for my family and teacher friends for my retirement of 34 years of teaching. There was plenty to do on the territory as well as in the house, and in Galena. We could have spent a whole week. The price was great, too!

We really loved the fact that each bedroom had its own bathroom, and also how big the kitchen, island, and 2 eating areas were. Also, the hot tub was a hit. As was the basement projector and screen, particularly for the home videos we brought and the kids electronic games.

The only issues we experienced were the following: internet was only so-so, the fridge was leaking (but we understand this to be fixed), and some of the drains were backing up (easy fix for owners to take care of).

Access to the club was great for the kids (pool, gym, etc). Access to the garbage drop off area was also convenient.

Very easy clean-up instructions. Loved that there were 2 coffee machines. Overall, great experience.

The house was great for size and number of bedrooms/baths for our size of family, considering we have six small grandchildren. Everything was quite clean. There was some sort of water leak inside the fridge which had gone into one of the bottom drawers and made it unusable since it couldn't be pulled out. Also a very large hole in dining room wall which we were told had been done by the group before us. Everything else was just fine and we will definitely stay again.

A great spot!

A group of 11 friends had a wonderful time in your beautiful home. We had lots of good conversation at the dining room table and around the fireplace. We also roasted marshmallows around the fire pit under a blanket of stars. A toilet issue was resolved within an hour by the attentive staff. It was a weekend to remember. Thank you.

Out of all the homes we have stayed in this one is my favorite! It has an open layout which is great when you have a large group. The privacy was also a plus. The WiFi was a little spotty but we have been to Galena enough to know that’s always a possibility. We are currently looking to book another trip here soon. Just one recommendation, the deck railing facing the hot tub needs some reinforcing. It’s a bit loose. Thank you so much !

We joined two other families with young children (ages 3-10) for a weekend escape in this house. It was perfect for us. The house had plenty of towels for the hot tub, the furnishings were nice but not so fancy that we worried every minute, and there was plenty of room to spread out. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. We also enjoyed walking and running on the country roads through the idyllic scenery. The only complaint was that the coffee pot needs to be descaled!

The property was very nice just out dated and each bedroom needed a dehumidifier which added to noise while trying to sleep.

Manager's Response

This is a great, large home for your friends and family to enjoy. Just a note - There are no dehumidifiers in this home, the upstairs can be warm so the owners have equipped the bedrooms with portable AC units. Enjoy!

3 Powderhorn Gap was the perfect getaway for our family. Plenty of room for adults and kids to make memories. The 6 bedrooms with attached bathrooms was great. We enjoyed the large kitchen and the dining room table was great for games and eating together. The carpet in the dining needs replaced, otherwise everything was ok. We would definitely interested in renting again.

Everyone in our extended family met at this inviting home to spend the long Labor Day weekend together. We had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed cooking meals together in the large kitchen. The kids enjoyed the game room and the adults enjoyed the hot tub. We were able to watch the Cubs game and the Iowa Hawkeye game, so we felt right at home. Everything was very clean and the beds were comfy. Check in and check out were super easy, and the trash/recycling facility is just down the road. The home had everything we needed for a nice, relaxing weekend. We'll definitely be staying here again!

The home was large and well layed out and fit our family's needs. Although the house was fairly clean, it did need some work. From the outside, it looked shabby. The yard was mowed, but in the landscaping the weeds were larger than the shrubs and it definitely needed paint inside and out. Some of the furniture and linens had seen better days. Great location and house, just in need of some TLC throughout!

We had a group of 12 and it was a very nice stay. The property had a lived-in feel, but definitely not run down. Kitchen was surprisingly well-stocked (some might say overstocked). Didn't have any problems with the mattresses like some of the previous reviews. The wifi comes off of satellite internet, so that wasn't so great. Thank goodness for hotspots.

The house was perfect for 6 couples getaway for a weekend. The house was a bit worn but that's ok (puts less stress on you if you make a scratch/mark on something). We really enjoyed the large dining room table not only to eat meals together but also to play games. The house was well stocked. We appreciated the bathroom for each bedroom. Some of the couples thought that the mattresses on the beds were uncomfortable. I can only speak for the master bedroom and it was fine. The shower heads need replacing as the water pressure is decreased due to lime build up. We had trouble figuring out how to use the large projector screen in the basement but they came and got it going for us when we called them.

We never felt crowded and there was plenty for everyone to do. The girls loved the horseback riding. Be sure to check out the old school that’s a nice little walk away. It’s in a wooded area and the trees were amazing! It was ‘raining’ leaves. We would love to come back to this house next year.

6 couples came together for our annual college reunion/get together. This house was perfect as we are all in our 60s and each of the 6 bedrooms have king or queen beds AND each had its own bathroom. The whole house was perfect for a group of this size and we made the most of practically every seating option available...dining room, deck, outdoor fire pit, living room/kitchen. It was ideal. Extremely well-equipped kitchen. There were a few minor items that could use some attention that have already been reported to the management company and I'm sure will be addressed promptly. Could've used clearer instructions on the use of the fireplace/TV. Only wish was that we could've stayed and enjoyed the home longer.

This house is more than spacious for 6 couples. All 6 bedrooms have ceiling fans and they each have their own bathroom. Plenty of room for all of us to sit and enjoy a nice dinner or to play some cards, domino's or board games. Would come back again, short distance from the town of Galena with lots of shops and food choices. Property was very clean.
Our group didn't use the hot tub since the outside air was a sauna! House could use some tender loving care but that is expected in a house rental.
Lots of pots/pans, ice maker worked great and all and all plenty of room for all of us. Enjoyed our visit and The Galena Territory is stunning. Swimming at the property pool was fantastic, very well taken care of and beautiful.

Every year, my extended family and I rent a VRBO home all across the Midwest for some family fun. This house was a wonderful fit for us! Plenty of space for everyone, and the Owner's Club was great for our teens. I loved the giant dining room table, and all the AV equipment was a good surprise. There was a lot of minor cosmetic things we noticed right away - carpets that weren't pulled tight, small holes in the wall and scratches in the paint, burns on the kitchen island, pans that should be replaced (teflon was chipping). Not so minor was the WiFi -- we had a hard time connecting and the signal was very weak. A good extender would be helpful. But, all of that was minor compared to the beauty and space that we had to relax and enjoy our time in Galena!

The house was perfect for our family in regards to sleeping.
The only con about the area was there was the internet was spotty. So we couldn't stream movies and the dish only had like 4 channels. There were NO games/DVDs in the house---so make sure to bring your own if you want to entertain little ones at the end of the day.

We had several kids with us, which I thought could be boring since Galena is known for shopping etc.

We spent an entire day at Chestnut Mountain doing the activities there.
Sculpture Garden was really cool. We even met the gentleman that does the sculpting. We were there for probably an hour.
We hung out at the owners club in the pools etc.

It was perfect for a family reunion.

Only minor inconveniences included low wattage lighting when using the hot tub. Made it hard to see where we were going. Flood lights aren't needed, but a little more light would've been nice. Also, the TV projector was temperamental. It required a call to Maintenance for fixing (and they responded right away!). However, those things wouldn't stop me from renting the house again.

Overall it was a big hit with my brothers and sisters. There were six couples all together and we all were comfortable and everyone liked their accommodations. Girls were a little bit taken aback by the population of the Asian Beetles and the box elder bugs that congregated on the porches. The girls also we're going to have a movie night down on the bottom floor but the projection TV audio is not working. However the hot tub was great and we were able to watch the Cubs game playoffs and everyone said that the overall experience was not tainted by anything that was not 100%.

Manager's Response

So glad everyone had an enjoyable time. Certain times of the year can be tricky in Galena with Mother Nature. Spring/Fall and extreme weather changes can make it interesting, just know the homes are professionally cleaned and vacuums are on the premise for your use during your stay. The projector issue has been resolved and the hot tub is always up and running ready for you to enjoy!!

We rented this home for a long weekend with my family and had enough rooms for 12 of us to stay and have our own bathroom! Lots of ameneties including a downstairs work out room, hot tub, and pool table. We had a leak in one of the bathrooms but called the number for the manager and was able to get someone to look at it the next morning on our time. Felt slightly anxious about getting the home set up as requested before we left (there is a check-list on the fridge, so be sure to review it to avoid extra charges) and felt rushed on our last day to get out by 11am. Would have preferred a little later check-out for that reason alone. Other than that we loved our stay and felt very comfortable in the home. Thanks again!

The house was awesome. There was plenty of room for 4 families. It was great to have a bathroom for every bedroom. The kitchen was well stocked. The only thing we could have used was kitchen scissors. The hot tub and large TV screen were big hits with the kids. The yard was big enough for outside games and room for the kids to run and play. The area is so pretty-lots of trees and wildlife. We enjoyed our walk to the Belden School. It was nice that the house was secluded-we weren't bothered by close neighbors. The house was clean and roomy. This was our third year staying in the Galena Territory and would recommend it to everyone.

We have enjoyed this home for 2 years now during our annual extendedicated family getaway. All the kids call it the "rodeo house", due to the proximity to the riding center. It's a quick ride into Galena for a day of shopping and dining or stay at the house and relax. We play minute to win it games below the back deck and lawn games outside. We will be back!

Everything in the home was great...from the common areas to the bedrooms,to the bathrooms...
My only suggestions is although its the season for lady bugs (cause thats what they look like)/asain beetles) The cleaning crew should clean the light fixtures FULL OF DEAD BUGS in the bathrooms and some common areas and window only takes 10-15 min...other than that We had a GREAT TIME..

This was a geat house for the 10 of us gal's reunion, Loved having a bath for each of the 6 bedrooms. Everyone thought the house was perfect. It was very clean & nicely decorated. Extremely private & peaceful. Everything was in good working order & we loved the layout of the kitchen for cooking our meals.

Couldn't find the laundry soap to start the the bath towels when we were ready to leave as directed, A call to housekeeping allowed us to skip that particular close up rule,The patio furniture was slightly rusty with no cushions. We had to use towels so we could sit on them what with all of us wearing light colors, Very minor inconveniences.
All in all, an exceptional week-end for us all,

Had a very wonderful time in this house. We were all able to have our own rooms and more than that we were able to sit at one table to eat dinner. The hot tub was a hit for the girls. You can tell this house has been used as a rental. It has some very unnoticeable blemish. The Galena territory owners club is also a plus. What a great facility! We would go back if we could but our family keeps growing!

Galena is nice place to have vacation. Stay was pleasure as house was nice and clean. only Problem we faced is communications.. there is no ATT or T-mobile network around so we have to go few miles to make calls.Well there is nothing property manager can do about it. so just need to keep in mind.Also WIFI wasn't good enough so we can't make even WIFI calls or browse internet. Usually we don't want to to connect with outside world as we are at vacations but sometime little communication is necessary. else Abby is professional to dealt with no complaint at all. Hot tub was the greatest part I would say.

We had a wonderful time and this home served all of our needs. Would be even better in nice weather as there was a beautiful deck to enjoy and the outdoors. The home was very clean and supplied everything we needed. It could use floor mats in front of the showers so you didn't have to use two towels when you showered, one to stand on and one to dry off with. However, they supplied laundry detergent to wash towels. The internet was awful, but we were there for family time. This is a beautiful home!!! The owner (manager) was amazing and helpful. Directions were great except when turning off of W. Wachter road the next street sign is on the opposite side of the road. But when I called the cell for questions they walked me right through it. Would definitely stay here again and recommend highly to anyone.

Great house with two issues: wi-fi was almost unusable and the bedrooms were very cold at night even when we tried to raise the temperature.

Manager's Response

We certainly would have helped rectify either of these problems if we were notified. Technology can be a challenge in the Territory with wifi and cell reception. The GTA Owners Club provides free reliable wifi every day!!
