The Steamboat House Bed & Breakfast

The Steamboat House Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I traveled to Galena to celebrate our 4th wedding anniversary. The weather was perfect for spending a few days there, and the Steamboat House was ideal, thanks to its location, aesthetics, and amenities. We both have gluten allergies, and while I forgot to mention this in our reservation, Carol, the innkeeper, was incredibly helpful in providing gluten-friendly breakfast options, which made our stay feel even more special. The house was beautifully decorated with a fall and Halloween theme, which we both enjoyed as we walked around and took in all the decorations. We highly recommend this place for couples or families seeking a cozy getaway in a historic house just off the main road into downtown Galena. We will for sure be returning in the future for another stay!"

"Our stay was very pleasant and we would return. The person checking us in lacked friendliness. The woman who worked the breakfast was beyond exceptional. Friendly and very helpful! Food options were very satisfying and they had my favorite…..the pancake machine!! Our room was spotless but we think they cleaned the carpet but it didn’t dry before our stay so the room was “damp”. Great location to Adobos (great burritos) and Mexican restaurant and Piggly Wiggly. Across from a Casey’s. So several options in walking distance. Pool and hot tub were both very nice!"
