Farmers' Guest House Reviews

The smell of freshly-baked cookies met us at the door almost the same time Kathie did. She, Jess and Charles are wonderful hosts and make you feel at home and like you're a member of the family almost instantly. We stayed in one of the romantic suites with a fireplace and whirlpool tub. It was bliss! The 6pm wine-and-cheese gathering at the dining room table is a great way to get to know your fellow lodgers, if you and they are so inclined. We met some wonderful people who we hope will be lifelong friends. Galena is a charming town that seems untouched by time....it gives you a great perspective if you're looking to get away from a busy, fast-paced life. You can really take a breather and get away from it all. Wonderful breakfasts almost make you not want to go out and explore the town but make yourself get out and about. The Eggnog Tarragon Caramel french toast is as decadent as it sounds.....absolutely DELICIOUS. The breads that Charles makes are a wonderful accompaniment to the breakfast entree. The inn and all the guest rooms are decorated for the upcoming Christmas holidays and they are beautiful. Kathie and Jess have personally decorated the inn and have done a beautiful job. If you haven't tried a B&B before, we strongly encourage you to do so....start with the Farmers' Guest House. You'll be glad you did.
