Welcome to the Miner's Cottage in the Galena Territory.
Galena Rental Miner's Cottage  

We know you will love staying at our beautiful and serene retreat, tucked away in a quiet area of the territory.

Although our home is only a few years old, this fantastically decorated cottage has an outdoorsy, backwoods feel that also conveys the ambiance of Galena's rich mining history. Sunny and bright, the house has cathedral, wood-clad ceilings, a massive stone fireplace, and huge windows everywhere.

 
   
 
Great Room  

The cottage is perfect for couples or families traveling together. If you're traveling with children, this is the place for you! The house has toys, children's videos, and a highchair, baby jogger, and portable crib.

Enjoy the wooded or long-range view from one of two decks overlooking a large yard where the kids can play.

You can also take a short walk to one of the most fantastic views of the Galena Territory, overlooking Lake Galena from a huge rock outcropping.

The house has two TV/VCR's with satellite, a stereo/CD system, and fully equipped kitchen.

 
Massive Kitchen

 

The kitchen, dining area (with a massive pine farm table that seats 10 at least), and living room are all open to each other, allowing you and your family and friends to interact freely while dining, preparing meals, or relaxing around the fireplace.

 
Master Bedroom  

There are three bedrooms, all with beautiful log beds, and three and a half bathrooms.

Each bedroom has its own bath. On the main level is a master suite with a queen log bed and cathedral ceiling.

Downstairs, there's a family room (with a pullout couch), another master suite with a queen log bed, and a third bedroom with two sets of log bunk beds, each with a trundle bed.

 
 

 

With all its delightful charm and careful attention to detail, we're sure you will find our cottage a wonderful departure from many other rental homes available. Ours is a special place that we use often ourselves-we're sure you will love all the comforts of home and special character that we have created.
