This B & B is amazing! Mark, Luke & Elaine are just awesome & really made our stay special. And the breakfast is amazing - including the gluten free meals! Every afternoon they offer wine time - with fresh cheese and cracker packs. The location to the Main Street shopping and restaurants is super convenient. We loved it and already booked our return trip!

We picked Farmers Guest House to celebrate our 30th anniversary and could not be happier. Extremely easy to check in, warmly greeted and everything we needed was there. This location is very close to downtown and a 5 minute walk to where it's all happening. And the breakfasts; amazing! Great variety, fresh local ingredients, served with a smile by attentive folks. It made us look forward to every morning, but plan accordingly as the portions and variety are a full meal! Breakfast is served in a great room with original features and modern touches. Huge windows let you enjoy the day and everything was just where we needed. Talking with the owner was a highlight of our stay. He was unassuming but very engaging and we shared some great conversation over a wide variety of topics. It's clear he cares a great deal not just about his customers but the community and world. We stayed in the Charlotte Suite, just off the dining area on the main floor and it was awesome. Lots of room, the fireplace was welcome during our early February visit, and the bed and furnishings were very comfortable. If you're looking for a great place to spend some time in Galena, this is the one.…

Our first stay at a bed and breakfast. It was a delightful stay. It met all our expectations for a new experience. We will refer our families and friends. We will definitely come again when we come to Galena again.

Not knowing what to expect, with being our first bed & breakfast experience. All we can say is WOW what a quaint, comfortable, quiet, friendly atmosphere. Luke, Elaine & Mark go out of their way to make you feel at home. Breakfast was absolutely amazing. When we arrived, we parked our car and did not get back in it until we were leaving. Everything is within walking distance. Final note, the cheese, crackers, soft chocolate chip cookies and wine in our room just makes us want to go back again. And WE WILL. Thank you, Luke, Elaine & Mark for your hospitality. Dan & Gina

Elaine is a highlight at this beautiful,spotless B&B! Elaine’s energy and excitement is endless each time we where greated! Luke is exceptional, he contacted us to confirm our suite was ready ahead of check in time. He goes beyond the measure of customer satisfaction and ongoing service. Breakfast is amazing and we would rate much higher than allowed, absolutely delicious and served hot with smiles and multiple confirmation we needed anything. From check in to check out we felt valued and honored to be their guest!! Exceptional B&B !

Fantastic stay! We went for our wedding anniversary and had the best time! We really enjoyed how close it was to Main street and we never had to use our car the whole weekend. The breakfast was delicious and wonderful variety! We can't wait to go back!

The hosts were welcoming and friendly. They covered all the details to make sure we had a perfect stay. We had wine/cheese in the afternoon, sweets in our room for a treat, and lovely robes. The best part of our stay was the breakfast, which was amazing! I would come back just for a taste of breakfast again. The location was also great and just a short walk to the main attractions for shopping and dining.

We were met with the kindest hosts who made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. The afternoon wine and snacks were perfect after our days of shopping and touring, and the breakfasts were amazing! We will definitely stay here again and recommend Farmers Guest house to all who ask about our weekend.

Our weekend at the Farmer’s Guest House was a lovely experience! Mark, Luke and Elaine are so nice and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we could possibly need.
