Call Galena’s favorite inn for information on our newest special, designed for anyone who wants a true getaway — by themselves! Â Â Imagine a day or two just to relax by yourself. Â Shop, golf, dine, enjoy a glass of wine, read, rock on the front porch, visit a spa, or just watch a movie on YOUR schedule. Â It’s your time and you deserve it! Â Â This would also make a great Mother’s Day gift for someone special.
This opportunity also comes with a special rate. Â Â Contact The Steamboat House for more details at 815 777 2317, and ask for the “Just for me” special.

Congratulations to Sue and Jeff Schmitz and Kristina and Rimas Gilvydis who won the Great Galena Getaway Giveaway this year!   This contest was created by a cooperative effort between The Steamboat House Inn in Galena IL and Musical Expressions music studio in Naperville IL.  The winners will each receive a free night in Galena at our inn.   Here are photos of the lucky winners with Musical Expressions’ beautiful owner, Susan Good.
For those of you who love your pets like we do, and feel guilty about leaving them while you enjoy a romantic Galena getaway, we have a solution!   Elite Pet Sitting right here in Elizabeth, IL, offers a high quality vacation experience for your special friends.   We toured the facility a week ago and were really impressed.  With a limited number of “guests” Elite offers fenced outdoor spaces, well designed interior places, and, best of all, no kennels or cages.  Just lots of love and care from an extremely experienced owner and staff.  Elite only hosts well socialized, healthy pets, so there are no worries for you, and your furry buddy will have a great getaway as well.  When you make a reservation at The Steamboat House, also make a reservation for your animal friend(s).  Then, just drop them off at Elite on your way into Galena.  Perfect!   Check them out.
And remember to check out our latest specials and offers while you visit the Galena site.
At The Steamboat House, your hosts make sure that guests are informed of the many events that Galena has to offer all year long.  This past weekend, guests enjoyed themselves at the annual Murder Mystery weekend! Check the site at VisitGalena.org to learn of upcoming events and for more information.

Although pets are not allowed in guest areas of The Steamboat House in Galena, we have always had an adorable dog in our own quarters.  Guests love visiting our fluffy friend and many look forward to seeing him.  We recently lost our best friend, Barney, and it was a very sad day for the inn.
3 weeks ago, we brought home Toby, another Havanese puppy, who is filling our lives with joy.  On Monday, we will bring home Louie, Toby’s littermate.   Stop by the Steamboat house soon and visit with both our new “boys”.  Below is a photo of Toby; pictures of Louie will be posted soon!
