Our family of six plus a set of grandparents spent NYE at the Rowhouse. It was an amazing time - the location is perfect, walkable to everything, even in the winter. The house is really neat, feels like you're in a different era just like the rest of Galena. We would definitely stay there again. The house sleeps 10 easily and the view overlooking the river/train/town was awesome. Thank you!
We stayed here when we were in town for a wedding. We loved the location. It’s right at the beginning of Main Street and close proximity to stairs to walk down to the Main Street. All the guests were raving about the place. It was perfect for a group. We would stay here again!!
This is our favorite place to stay. It is spacious and lovely and in a perfect location to walk to downtown. We love to sit on the porch, drink coffee, and enjoy spending time together.
Second time our family has stayed there. Great location can walk to everything. Mary is a great host. If you have a question or need help she gets back to you right away. Would definitely stay there again.

We really enjoyed staying here with our whole family for our daughter’s wedding in Galena. Great historic home, well appointed, great owners wonderful location easy access to everything. We had to manage a shower schedule but that was our only concern.
Thanks for a great stay Mary and Merle!
Great stay at the row house! Loved the extra touches: bath linens in every bedroom, face wipes in every bathroom, laminated list of kitchen specialty items, fliers on things to do in Galena. We would recommend highly!
We came for friends and family ski trip, some people chose to ski and some chose to shop. The house is a perfect location. The house leaves nothing to ask for.
Our group had the best time in Galena! This home was perfect for us! If you appreciate beautiful old homes and are able to walk up and down stairs, this place is perfect. It has big bedrooms and very comfortable furniture. It’s an easy walk to shopping and has private as well as street parking. We loved it and would definitely come back.
We had a mini family reunion with 6 adults and 2 kids, and this beautiful house worked really well for us. It’s convenient to everything and made for a very fun Halloween night stay. We felt like we were in the Sirius Black’s hideout. Fun place for sure!
We have the most amazing time as a great away with my mom, sister, and son. It was our first time in Galena and it was absolutely the perfect spot! The home is lovely, very comfortable, and in an amazing location! All of the info that Mary has available to guests helped us pick some great restaurants and shops! We will be back!
Three of my brothers and I (with spouses) stayed at the delightful Bench Street rowhouse in Galena from three Wonder nights. We have a great reunion, with time spent walking the streets and heights of Galena as well as enjoying our 1845 Galena home. Well appointed and equipped, the rowhouse provided every comfort. We will be back.
The house was very charmingly decorated with beautiful high quality antique furniture, rugs, and paintings. It was probably the most beautifully decorated vacation rental that I've rented so far. We had a wonderful time in Galena shopping, eating, and listening to live music. I like that you can walk everywhere you need to go and the house has private parking! We would certainly stay in this house again!
Very cool house. We love old houses and this one didn’t disappoint. Everything was very clean and well stocked. It was a great location for enjoying all Galena has to offer.
Thanks for everything!
Robyn and family.
The location of this property is perfect! Close walking distance to Main Street. Property was a well maintained beautiful historic home on a quiet street. You had a little “old world charm” from the church bells next door— but still provided a quiet nights sleep. Patio and outdoor spaces made this the perfect getaway place for my girlfriend’s group! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!
Five Friends took a shopping trip to Galena and loved our stay. The home has everything you could want! The two with the best knees stayed in the two bedrooms on top floor. The other three stayed in three bedrooms on second floor. Beds, pillows, and bedding were wonderful! We would definitely book again.
We have been coming to Galena each December for nearly 30 years. This year we found the Row House and it is our new favorite place to stay. The house is spacious enough for a large group of people to stay comfortably. The furniture and décor are cozy and lovely. The beds were comfy and warm. Everything you could ever need for your stay has been thought of: Lots of towels, dishes, utensils, coffee makers and pods, and even umbrellas are available and handy. We could not have dreamed of a better place to spend our December weekend getaway! We will definitely be back!
Eight women stayed for the weekend for our second time and we had a fabulous time at the house and in town!
This house has a lot of history and the owners have done a great job keeping it beautiful! With all the historic charm!
It has everything you need and then some. The linens are super nice and comfy!
Owner, Mary, is very friendly and answers emails quickly!
Beautiful historic home very close to shopping. Accommodations were lovely and comfortable seating for our group when dining and visiting. Only wish was that there was another shower. With eight people staying and only one shower we really had to coordinate. Bath tub on the 3rd floor was beautiful but not really convenient. Even with that said, we would all highly recommend your row house to anyone visiting Galena.
It was wonderful we all had a good time, lots of stair therapy. it did us all good. Need to have at least 1 more day to see everything and do things. The house was gorgeous. Only thing, us old farts got our exercise with the stairs to the bedrooms. It did us good though! would definetley come back. Beautiful sitting on the patio at night. Even had two visistors a deer a kitty. Wonderful weekend.
