• Uzma (10/5): - Peaceful and clean 😌 ✨️
• Patrick (10/5): - Very dog friendly -- nice outdoor space.
• Farhana (10/5): - The entire place and the people running it were great.
• Dave (10/5): - Beautiful grounds, nice rooms, great views and quiet location.
• STEVEN (10/5): - Great place. Excellent host. Will definitely have to visit again.
• Dragana (10/5): - We stayed for a weekend. It is a country style, very enjoyable if looking for a quiet place. The view is very nice. Our room was ready, they let us in before the check in. That was nice, we didn’t even asked for it. Since it is a country style-everything it would have been nice if they had a country style breakfast. Just a suggestion as it would add to the experience. Thank you for everything.
• Theodore (10/5): - Beautiful view- peaceful-
• Geoffrey (10/5): - Beautiful resort
• Elena (10/5): - We stayed at LeFevre Inn for four nights and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Booking through Expedia was simple and convenient, and when a small issue came up with my card, the owner personally helped resolve it quickly and easily. The staff was equally attentive and welcoming throughout our stay, which made everything stress-free. The property itself is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly located for exploring Galena while still feeling tucked away. Our room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Between the smooth booking process, the helpful staff, and the overall atmosphere, we’d absolutely stay here again.

The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. There was everything you could want in a small inn ... fireplace in room, swimming pool, gazebo, fire pit, and decks outside each room with chairs and table. We will definitely be back!
• Yogesh (10/5): - Us and two kids recently had the pleasure of staying at Lefevre Inn and Resort, and it truly exceeded my expectations!

• Pierresun (10/5): - Nice location
• Deb (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay at Lefevre Inn and Resort. It's a beautiful area and our cottage was very nice. The only negative was the jetted tub in our room was dirty and slimy in the jets. A little extra attention in that area and it would be 5 star across the board! We'll definitely be coming back.

• perry (10/5): - This was our second experience at LeFevre political Inn CongressAlfredo was excellent. Ramona was excellent.

• Thomas (10/5): - very nice place to stay
• Ben (8/5): - Our stay at Lefevre Inn was a lovely time! The bed was very comfy and the check-in process was super easy. We did notice some lighting/electrical problems (the lights randomly would turn on in the bathroom and lights would flicker), but other than that it was great!
• Scott (10/5): - My wife and I decided to spend our 23rd wedding anniversary in Galena. We haven’t been to the area since middle school for field trips/school ski trips etc. we live about 2.5 hours away so it was a nice scenic drive. We booked a cottage at the LeFevre resort and it did not disappoint. Everything was exactly as described. Was pleasantly surprised that there was actually a wood burning fireplace as that was a dealbreaker. The jetted tub was also a necessity and it was perfect. Great scenery and a wonderful staff made the stay a weekend to remember. Hoping to bring the entire family back if possible and will definitely stay here again!
• Verified traveler (10/5): Weekend Getaway - It was a great stay! We loved the wood burning fireplace!
• Scott (10/5): Very Special - Beautiful location. Spacious, modern, clean, roomy. Super friendly. Very special
• Suzanne (10/5): Perfect weekend!! - Absolutely perfect! Very clean, super cute & spacious! Very caring owners, made everything effortless especially since we called ahead for a late check in!
• Ryan (8/5): - We chose this property because we were skiing at Chestnut Mountain, and the location was great. The cottage was very unique and worked great for our family. We did have some issues getting hot water for more than one shower/bath, and the whirlpool in the unit needs to be cleaned, but overall it was a good stay. The wood burning fireplace was a nice surprise as well.
• Callie (10/5): - I just love this place!! So cozy and quiet!
• Rochelle (10/5): So close to shopping but far enough away - This place was very nice. Due to the time of year (December) and days I stayed (M-W), I may have been the only guest on the property at least one day. The staff were nice as well. The view from my room was amazing! Some snow came and it was even prettier. I can only imagine how summer views are. I didn't try the free breakfast, so I can't say how it was. My room was perfect and very clean. The fireplace was a bonus for me. Galena is hills and valleys, so if you visit in winter, be careful driving on those hills. Just saying... I've already recommended this inn to my sister and friends.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Loved that it had a fireplace in our rio M.
• Justyna (8/5): - This time around was not as pleasant as year before We had trouble with our tv, cable, And last night our heater broke and room was at 64 degrees There was lots of ladybug and other insects Inside our room Next time will request sunset view site not the back
• Yang (10/5): - Amazing place too quiet clean people very kind i recomend
• Shannon (10/5): - Beautiful area, cozy room,
• Michael (10/5): - It was very clean and peaceful with a wonderful view of the landscape. The real fireplace was a bonus. It was just an all around great stay in the cottage. Highly recommend especially if your looking for a romantic get away.
• GUADALUPE GONZALEZ (8/5): - It is a great place to stay, nice room and a spectacular view and the only issue is the sign of WiFi which is not enough strong.
• bob (10/5): - nice property wouldn’t mind coming back
• Callie (10/5): - I just love it here! So peaceful and pretty this time of the year.
• Marsha (10/5): Much needed rest - Beautiful fall view with awesome weather!
• Robert (2/5): - Came up for the weekend with my wife. To get the positive out of the way, the outside was very nice with a nice overlook of Galena. Now for the bad. We stayed in the smaller rooms of the main building. First look over there was grime on the walls and bathroom door. As if they had never been cleaned. The bed felt as if all the middle springs were toast. When you laid down you pulled to the center as if there was a crater in the center of the bed. Next there were quite a few bugs that I had to take care of including spiders, mosquitos, and moths. I did let the front desk know about the grime when we went to grab breakfast from the office (mediocre by the way, I just grabbed coffee) and they did clean the walls, but the bathroom door was still disgusting. Now the big issue came the next night, note the bugs. I noticed something crawling by the bed and killed it. Upon inspection it was a Roach and that I'm not cool with in the least bit. When there is one, there is more, so we packed carefully after inspecting all of our belongings as to not bring one home, and hauled out of there. On the way out I gave the office emergency phone number a call as they are gone by 9 pm. I spoke to the least concerned woman when I told her about the roach. She wanted me to believe that it was not a roach and that it was a stink (A very different bug). With such arrogance as if she was in the room and saw the whole thing. Won't refund. Summary: Roaches, Terrible Service, Dirty Room, and Broken Bed.
• Lorraine (10/5): - Spectacular escape from the city. So quiet and the landscape is beautiful. You can hear a pin drop. This is the perfect place to relax.
• Adam (10/5): - Amazing place very clean and quant
• Mica (4/5): Spider - There was a spider in my bed and it bit me
• Jan (10/5): - We had a very pleasant stay. The property is beautiful and the cottage was very clean. The gentleman at the reception desk was so nice and friendly. We plan on staying there again!!
• Marilyn (10/5): - Beautiful resort and very friendly associates! I would recommend this location to anyone and will definitely be staying there again.
• Tricia (10/5): - Absolutely beautiful
• Nicole (10/5): - Our usual was booked up a whole month in advance and we really needed a night away from home to unwind. I badly wanted to steal the couch, I'm fairly certain that was the most comfortable couch I've ever sat on. The bed was comfortable and the room overall fit our needs. The only downside for us was the jacuzzi tub absolutely needs more grab bars. People in their 40s and up in that deep tub all wet trying to get out causes lots of bruises.
• Pamela (10/5): - Alfredo, the manager was attentive cheerful and very accommodating. The property itself was beautiful and the views were gorgeous! Our cottage was clean and very roomy! Would for sure stay there again!
• Maria (10/5): - Highly recommend this beautiful Inn & Resort! Will definitely come back. Short drive from downtown Galena, but totally worth not being within walking distance to enjoy some quiet time in this peaceful resort.
• Jannel (10/5): - We loved the property so much we actually stayed an extra night! Alfredo and his wife were so kind and the room was just perfect with an oversized jacuzzi and real wood burning fire place and a super comfy bed. I also loved the property grounds from the gazebo to the pond and the outdoor pool!! The views were amazing, you could also see three states at once! I can’t wait to plan another get away to this 10/10 Inn!
• Connie (10/5): - A lovely place to rest and enjoy the quiet. Beautiful surroundings.
• BRIANA (10/5): - Great view and easy ride to down town
• Denise (10/5): - We enjoyed the fire pit area that overlooks the pond. The view outside the cottage is beautiful.
• Natasha (10/5): - Best place to go if you like peace and quiet. I didn’t want to leave. 10/10
• Aanchal (10/5): - Very nice place, clean, friendly staff, very serene surroundings.
• Lezlee (10/5): - LeFevre Resort is a beautiful place just outside of town. The cottage we stayed in was beautiful and exceptionally clean. The property is amazing with little details like flower planters and hanging baskets that make it extra appealing. There's a beautiful pond with a gazebo and well-manicured, wide-open spaces to simply roam around. Alfred, the Inn Keeper was extremely helpful. Overall, our weekend away was awesome. We'd stay here again, for sure!
• Kevin (10/5): - It was a beautifully well manicured lawn with amazing views of the landscape with a bonus view of the on-site pond. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was perfect… not too overwhelming but a nice selection. We will definitely stay here again when in the area. The price was right!
• raymond (10/5): - The room was comfortable. Not far from sights to see, and in a quiet pastoral beautiful.
• Vicki (10/5): - This resort is such a beautiful property with absolutely amazing views! We picked this spot to stay for my husband's birthday weekend and we loved our time staying there! Its close to downtown Galena and all it has to offer. I highly recommend staying here on your next trip to Galena!
• Lawrence (10/5): - Friendly staff, very clean rooms
• Jenna (10/5): - The room itself was so cozy and comfortable. We got the queen room for the huge tub and it was SO WORTH IT! The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I am a morning person and went for a stroll down by the lake at 6am and it was just magical ♥️
• Kate (10/5): - Great stay, even better view!
• Janel (10/5): - This was a wonderful stay. It felt cozy and friendly. It was in the country but very close to town.
• Jessica (10/5): - Lefevre Inn and Resort is a hidden gem in the Galena area. It was easy to find, just a short five minute drive from downtown. Check in was easy, and staff was super friendly. The room was clean and had amazing country views. The chairs and table outside our room was nice for coffee and relaxation. This was the perfect spot to be close to shopping but far enough outside of town to be extremely peaceful and away from the crowds. I heard the occasional cow or rooster but not much else. It was very quiet and just what we needed for a great weekend!
• Christopher (10/5): - Absolutely love this place!! Don’t hesitate to book it.
• Andrew (10/5): - Quiet, amazing staff, we will be back.
• Adam (10/5): - I had a great check-in experience. The property was beautiful and peaceful. This was my first time visiting Galena. It was a cute town.
• Maria and Timothy (10/5): - We planned a last minute trip to Galena, but we wanted to bring our dog with us, and we came across this place. They definitely made our experience unforgettable! It's a bit out of the downtown area (like 3 min drive so not bad at all). However the area, the view, the peace made it the perfect place to stay. Upon arrival, they gave our dog a little bag with treat (homemade in a farm close by), and a little toy which he loved, also the room had a little area for his food and water bowl. The room was super spacious, clean, comfortable, and the fireplace made it even more special. They had a lot of extra amenities like the coffee machine, glasses for wine, magazines about the Galena and Dubuque. Definitely going back there every time we visit Galena.
• Vittorio (10/5): - Lindo lugar y muy tranquilo
• Veronica (10/5): Loved - Love everything about this resort!!
• Melissa (10/5): - The Resort was overlooking a beautiful view. The staff was nice and the transportation service they recommend was awesome!
