Eagle Ridge Resort - Galena, IL

Eagle Ridge Resort - Galena, IL

I vote we consider this resort. Currently, they have availability in their 8 bedroom distinctive homes for June 19 - June 22 (I was thinking we could rent 2-3 of the 8 bedroom homes depending on our final count).
PROS
  • Staying together in houses where we could have group-together time and also some get-away-from-everyone moments - we can get loud without worrying about getting tossed out!
  • Many activities from golfing, horseback riding, hot air ballooning, boating, a spa, a pool, etc.
  • Special kids programs for kids 12 and under.
  • Appears to have good rates - not a bank buster!
CONS
  • A little longer drive for some - 100 miles from Madison, 150 miles from Chicago.
  • A whole new decision to consider.
  • May be harder for the parents (Joe & Mary, Marge & Jerry, etc) to join as it is farther away

I am willing to do the work (with help from Lynn if she is willing) if people would like this option. Please visit the website - click on the title of this post and it will take you to the resort's website. I will send this information via email too as it seems there are some computer illiterate Heiser Cousins who cannot figure out how to get on the blog.
